Immigrant. Fmr sport fighter. Fmr 1st responder. Partially disabled, full time STEM student despite extreme (49) oldness. Inveterate mystery addict. ASD. Writerish. I try to be an excellent ally but pull me over if you see me eff that up. She/her 🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈
I had to withdraw from all my on campus classes due to this cursed tumor, but I kept the online ones. I have one nailed down with an A+, and the second i currently have an A but there's a few more weeks of work I could still cock it up. If I get both I should be on the Dean's List.

Ok, finished The Diplomat (excellent twist ending to the season as per usual for that show). I have a zillion things on my list but I can never remember them when I have time to watch. So I'm watching the first thing that was a mystery: The Beast in Me.

Xena's new sitting style. I do not know, but as you can see it makes her happy so my hands are tied. 🤷‍♀️

Watching him have zero control of the Epstein debacle is delightful.

Or it would be if it weren't so very dark. Those girls, I honestly cannot imagine.

It's sleeting out so we're tucked up watching Thursday Murder Club, I'm doing a puzzle & bff is working on her art. It's awesome.

Btw: If yall had told me Lucifer was in this movie I would've watched it the day it came out.

I have a lot of food issues. I don't actually really like food, like Captain Holt I'd take all my meals as a beige pellet if I could. I've been stuck on mostly the same 3 meals for a few years now.

Lamest brag ever: I bought the stuff & made a good turkey sandwich last night. It was delicious.

Y'all the grocery check out lady asked me if I qualify for the senior discount. 😭 apparently I've aged out of "go to the market in sweats & no makeup" demo. Rude, 😂.

I fell asleep super early last night, like 8ish. Then I woke after midnight & now at 2 AM, I'm fighting a panic attack about losing my Medicaid/school. Everything feels so hard & just...implausible rn, it's very hard not to give up.
November 15, 2025 at 7:09 AM
Y'all smell blood in the water? I've been disappointed before but idk, this one feels different.

Please let it be different.

Marjorie Taylor Greene says Trump is lying about her interactions with him — and posted their text exchanges today about the Epstein files.

A sitting member of Congress just posted her messages with the president of the United States.

He said adopt rather than adapt & as he is wont, doubled down on being wrong.
Trump: "Christians and more, think of this, more than twice as likely foster care they'll adopt the general population. They adopt to it so easily. When they get out, they adopt to it like it's become second nature. It's amazing."

It's very hard not to say "told you so" to the many Dems i know who insisted that Fetterman was the one. They refused to listen when Black people in PA said no. Lots of women are attuned to dangerous men, I assume Black people have the same thing with racism, so I take it seriously.
November 13, 2025 at 9:38 PM
I'm pretty sure I'm gonna really like being a PA & I think I'll be good at it. But being on a pre-med track means my classmates are really intense & weirdly aggressive nerds & I just can't with them.

The northern lights are out tonight. You can even see it moving.

Well, they cut off my Medicaid. So now I gotta beg my university to see if I can buy through them. Or you know, die.

If I die, please cut me into chunks & throw them at republicans.

You guys I think something went very wrong recently at my doctor's office. 😳
November 11, 2025 at 7:38 PM
Well, this brain tumor has fucked me again, I'm having to do a medical withdrawal from most of my classes. It's so fucking depressing. Trying to get a degree while dying is exactly as hard as it sounds.

I have to meet with a dean to approve it, I'm close to vomiting from the anxiety.

Long story short: Xena discovered large leaf piles on a walk today & she is *very* pro leaf large piles.

Oh look, more. This was pointed at a journalist in Chicago. Note the Christo fascist sticker on his mag.

The war is here, conduct yourself accordingly.

Idk how exactly but now I'm in charge of holding Lily's butt so she doesn't fall off the side of the bed. The king sized bed with plenty of empty level space. She's exceedingly pleased with herself, purring like crazy.
