Too complicated to explain in such a limited space...basically, I have ADHD, a million hobbies, and if I think about something new for 5 seconds too long I will become obsessed. It's a thing.

Had a random plant come up in my balcony garden. My plant ID app can't decide if it's cucumber, pumpkin, or some form of squash. I didn't plant any of those this year. Last year I tossed a bunch of random seeds into the space though so....yay plant adventure! 🌱

I need a job where the whole thing is just coming up with ideas.
Need an idea for a novel? I've got tons.
Need an idea for a website? I've got way too many.
I remember when I was 8 and I had an idea for a business doing people's grocery shopping and then taking it to their house...in 1994.

1/Every parent, educator & advocate should be alarmed: DHS agents tried to enter 2 LA elementary schools posing as “wellness checks”—targeting children who crossed the border alone.
Superintendent Carvalho, once undocumented himself, called it out with “anger and contempt.” As he should.

Did you know the US House of Representatives passed the Save Act, which doesn't let women vote if they have a different last name from the one on their birth certificate?
And by the way, if it passes no one can vote if they can't show their birth certificate.

So just to keep up, the plan is, we’re going to raise tariffs so high no one can buy things, then we’re going to build factories with no OSHA protections, no pollution standards, no change to the minimum wage, and open to child labor. So we are partying like it’s 1899, that’s the plan.
