Less a snowflake and more a scattering of harmless yet annoying hail.
Do not get lost in a sea of despair. Do not become bitter or hostile. Be hopeful, be optimistic. Never, ever be afraid to make some noise and get in good trouble, necessary trouble. We will find a way to make a way out of no way. #goodtrouble
@sanzoidy Rumors are flying, but nothing has been said officially. (will only trust something coming from Bree, honestly)
I'm just glad they seem to be hanging out and Bree's posts confirm Silas still exists!
The pictures are definitely welcome spots of sunshine in my feed!
You are not the flaws of the person who inspired you.
You have always been what you were inspired to be. You can accept the inspiration and accept the amazing parts of you it unlocked while letting go the person who unlocked it.
Always believe the victims.

Be careful of your heroes.
Be careful of who you allow to create your identity.
Remember no matter how those heroes have fallen (or how far), you are always who you were and the best parts of what was inspired by a flawed person who you can let go of whenever you are able.

@Stands I was looking at vintage clocks on Etsy, as one does, when I came across this one https://t.co/ISVLXWoJUG and recalled your previous search for a Mora clock.
How goes the search, if not abandoned all together?
Just tapping in to...whatever this place is now...real quick to say: Concussions, whiplash, and dealing with car insurance claims 0/100. I can't recommend this less. I request no one else run into me again for ever. Thank you.
@Stands The flu is not an acceptable side quest. Please tell it to go away.
Also, found this at work on the floor and thought of you.
They forgot the 'A' though.
@Stands Hee. And if you do buy one off of ebay (because this particular clock is super expensive obvi) make sure they haven't replaced the movement with a battery. Just reading the FB group and that seems common.
Good luck! I expect PICTURES!!!!
@Stands Refined search terms "Swedish Mora Clock". It looks like it's a replica of that particular style. the Mora Clock apparently comes in a mantel size as well.
@Stands Also, if you include in your search terms "French longcase" or "french tallcase" clock it seems to bring up more clocks that are similar to this. I found the Wayfair article you linked the picture from as well using that. This is heckin' cool, though.
@Stands Yes! Regulators were super popular!
And holy crap that is so cool! I've never seen a grandfather clock with a body like that! Do you know who manufactured them? I might've seen someone working on something like that in the clock repair fb group I just joined.
@Stands Guh.
*jealousy has entered the chat*
I'm just starting out and my favorite thing so far has been doing deep dive online researches on the different kinds of clocks and manufacturers.
These are my current "project" clocks. And one more Syroco.
@creator_grimm Because Silas (very smartly) doesn't have a social media presence and because he only embodied the character YOU created, I blame some of this on you.
@starklyjd Maybe that means Bitsie will be free and there will be more movement toward a Grimm revisit? (Wishful thinking...no, I don't want an original series I want Grimm...It's my comfort show...you can "at" me if you need....)
@LouDPhillips Hey, friend! Have you made it over to B-sky yet? I'd love to follow you over there when/if you do. We don't interact but I always enjoyed the dose of cozy positivity I saw regularly when I was more active here.
