The Olympic qualifying process was tough, and I was nervous. My uncertainty was at 90%. But coach Nakano said, ‘if you don’t try hard, then Japan will be in trouble.’ That distracted me a bit, it was funny.

We've entered the most blessed stretch of the year: Li'l Snacky Days. Cheese, crackers, and cured meat is acceptable for every meal. There are 7 different types of pickles in the fridge. There's always a bowl of popcorn or roasted nuts within arm's reach.
All is well.

If you want to know how badly diet culture has messed with women: last night I watched my MIL remove all the pieces of potato from her tiny portion of lamb stew because they were "too much food."

48 hours into the family holiday visit. 18 of those hours were occupied by endless hollering about who's winning at cards while the TV blasts US cable news and crime shows at top volume. There is nothing to eat in the house but grapefruit, booze, & biscotti. It's -24C outside.

Cory Doctorow : "We need to make tech workers unionized again ... because tech workers that aren't working behind a keyboard, those tech workers, they're peeing in bottles or being injured at 3x the national rate in an Amazon warehouse. That's how tech bosses treat workers they're not afraid of."

Today I heard a landlord described as “picky” about prospective tenants. The rental property in question faces onto a six lane highway and stands next to a gas station with a robust rat population. Such taste!

Received a rejection letter for a pair of flash pieces today, but it was a good rejection! Editors who can spare a moment to send the extra line of feedback or encouragement with a rejection are solid gold people.

All I want for Christmas is the ability to forget everything I’ve ever learned about Olivia Nuzzi. I keep learning more about this person against my will and it’s eating up valuable RAM I need free to store the names of The Raccoons voice cast.
