In better news, I have discovered my plant store. A little far of a walk but well stocked, decent prices, and SO nice.

You can always tell when the straights have decorated for Halloween. They have NO concept of draping. Their spider webs look like someone stuck cotton candy on top of a bush. Their witches dangle like an execution.

On the one hand, the trees outside my new apartment make some fun shadow patterns on my ceiling. OTOH, I’m now very aware of how annoyed I’m going to be in 5 hours with this blindless, curtainless window.

Managed to get almost as many steps in today never leaving the apartment as I did yesterday going to a giant pickle festival but I am still not finished packing. (Nearly there. I’m not mad at my progress.)

Website security theatre is becoming ridiculous. What is the fucking point of 2FA if my account is going to be locked after providing all the correct pieces of information across 3 different devices? I am so fucking tired of the internet sometimes.

My mom and I used to talk about how people sometimes look or behave like their dogs. Today, I gazed down upon my kitchen floor, splattered in so many post-grocery run pools of sweat that it was in danger of becoming a slipping hazard, and knew I was forever doomed to be a mastiff person.

Dear fountain pen fans: In case you didn't know, the Goulets helped found and are on staff for an anti LGBT and patriarchal SBC church whose pastor says that being gay is an equivalent sin to murder.
The SBC pours a lot of money into regressive political causes.

I doodled Chemistry Squid while listening to talks about... well, chemistry work being done on squid samples, of course.
He's so cute. Squid in goggles. How silly. I love him.

Always exciting when you accidentally change an app's language to one whose written script is completely opaque and all the 'where can I change my language' guides online only supply text instructions. Like, guys, if I could pick 'Language Settings' out of a list I wouldn't be here.

I get this question a lot. I don't have strong views on how transmasc people should dress, but since I often get the question, I've thought about it a bit. Will share some thoughts in this thread. 🧵

👋 Hi, we’re Unbreaking, a volunteer-run collective working to document our current moment of institutional collapse and its human costs—as well as the pushback and resilience work already underway. We believe this is critical work for building and retaining political agency.

Threw an excellent party with far FAR too much socializing that didn’t involve just parking myself at a table and talking to 5 people for 3 hours, but feeling very loved. Somehow tho there are still 2 more graduation event days to go.

I was so focused on the logistics of receiving a new bed today that I completely forgot about the fact that I now have to sleep in it.
