Thinking about the overwhelmed auntie who asked me for directions to the public library today at spui tram stop. There are currently weird barriers up all around the center and of course right between the underground exit and the adjacent library so I hope she found it 😭

considering setting my email auto reply to ‘have you googled it’

Wish them well but I really do not need to see another clip of AG and CE together ever again. I’ve never seen wicked in any of its iterations and do not plan to. I did not consent to this!!

I feel like my life would change if the grocery store started selling roasted vegetables. Would I like a roasted sweet potato salad? Sure! Do I want to have to roast some sweet potatoes just to see a salad? No! Also, I do not have an oven. But even if I did.

I’ve joined some nova scotian neighborhood Facebook groups and I gotta say they are generally delightful. It’s all ‘driving into town tmrw at 3pm if anyone needs a lift’ and ‘size 8 skates with no blades free to a good home’. Entering my boomer era.

My brother has been putting out a special winter seed block for the birds, in addition to the regular feeder, and one squirrel has been eating it before any birds can get to it. Well, it’s now in a squirrel-proof box and let’s just say he’s NOT HAPPY 😤 🐿️

Never one to complain about having too much cheese but I was distracted/rushed when I was doing my grocery order and seem to have bought the XL family size package of beemster and I hate to say it but this is Too Much Cheese

Just seen a tweet connected to the bbc furore praising strong GC feminist voices on the left. TO THE LEFT OF WHAT??

Did a chore I’ve been putting off for ages and wouldn’t you know…

…it was extremely unpleasant, took forever, and gave me zero sense of accomplishment or satisfaction 😆

Omg my new balcony solar fairy lights are on!! I installed them two days ago but they weren’t turning on and I couldn’t figure out why. I must have forgotten that I live in nl where there’s no sun so instead of 8 hours of daylight to fully charge it took 48 🫡

I hope every dem/lib politician whose platform consists solely of selling the appeasement of billionaires and genocidaires as the only way to defeat fascism wakes up with the fear of god in them today

In the small middle-of-nowhere subdivision where I grew up we’d get 2, maybe 3 full pillowcases each before calling it a night (we’d have to haul a full bag home, empty it out, then head back out) and only now do I realize how bonkers that was.

Last night when making dinner I put a half of a stock cube in a coffee cup and made a mental note to remove and store it properly. You’ll never guess what just happened when I took a sip of my nice mid afternoon freshly brewed coffee.

Every time I hear that Lennie Bernstein/NYPhil recording of Mahler 1/iii all my hot takes about the futility of conductors absolutely disintegrate and I hate that messy bitch for it.

Happy Halloween from Luella. Given to Mary Davis when her parents visited from sea. Mary lived with her grandparents until age 5, then joined her parents at sea from 1873-1878. Luella has “real hair” & watches you while you sleep. 👻

Re: right wingers calling anti genocide protestors on campus ‘student brownshirts’. I thought using language associated with that specific genocide outside of that specific context is antisemitic 🤔

Other than the statement as question—I hate it?—millennials are as a group far less annoying on social media than us genXers. Have you ever seen genX reels or tiktoks? It’s all ‘in our day we played in traffic and drank glue and had no safe spaces.’ Loser shit!
