Not sure if this is how you arrange the lights but oh well

Nifty has been thinking a lot lately about basically everything.
It has caused Nifty to approach familiar things in new ways.
Today's new Nifty had painful hands.
This informed his decision making process with how to do his daily art practice.
He opted to forgo opening and editing each individual photo in RawTherapee like he usually does.
Instead, he wondered if there was a way to select several photos at once and apply the same tools to them with one command.
Digikam, introduced to Nifty by Toyfriend, had such a tool.
Nifty was able to easily figure out how to convert an entire batch of photos to JPEG without hurting her hands.
This is a Nifty win.

This set of photos is sort of working with a feeling I've become highly aware of lately. My chronic hand pain has made it very difficult for me to use the computer and my smartphone like I habitually have. A combination of being unable to use these things and being forced to pay attention to my body's feelings to cope with chronic pain has made me much more sensitive to unexpected sensory stimuli. Today a housemate was watching cartoons in the living room, and before I knew it, I had started paying more attention to the screen than how my body felt. It's so easy for me to become distracted.
