there was a mouse in the vents like six hours ago (it rightfully did not enter the apartment and ran away when it realizes there is a Cat) and my body is refusing to calm down so i am drinking a diet coke to get my body to relax and it is working. adhd really is a trip.

I don't think you need to think there will be long term shifts in Trump's policies or behavior (there won't be) to enjoy what just happened, sometimes it's good to enjoy things that are funny in the moment

You grow up in a SE Asian household and you're going to believe in ghosts even if you don't believe in ghosts.
do you believe in ghosts or are you like me, a person who finds themself saying all the time “I absolutely don’t believe in ghosts, but this place has ghosts.”

I guess I can drink twelve coffees a day while chain smoking if you want me to do this in a socially acceptable manner, I just don't see how that's better for my physical or mental health than Vyvanse, y'know?

getting zelda buttons next month as inspired by @maryrobinettekowal.com's elsie and it's kinda funny to think about how i am not even slightly worried about her understanding words. she definitely understands words. no, the thing i'm uncertain she will understand is the concept of pushing a button
