success (? / . / !)
Thanks to a therapy / rubberducking session with Claude the AI (seriously, he works great for that: I appreciate analytical approaches to mental issues, especially when they manage to work in Nick Cave), I've realized that I have no clue of what success looks like to me: I've spent my life living up to my perception of others' expectations and constantly failing. And now that they're all dead (some thankfully, others crushingly) and I'm doing whatever it is that I do, I'm still living up to those perceived expectations. Suppose, then, that my current job is to figure out what success looks like to me. Probably a lot like what I'm doing now but without the soul-sucking striving for the approval of people who don't exist.

Latest metal creature which started as something else until it decided what it wanted to be, a not quite-a-cat cat, a Scattercat, ready to pounce. It used to be a broken typewriter, license plates, chain link fence, pipe caps, and a Slow Moving Vehicle sign. Rather proud of this little devil.
