I'm gonna get a quick shower, slather my MMR vaccine reaction rash in cortisone cream, and hit the hay!

Tonight while doing wound care my dad told me I need to "calm down" and not do so much. I bit my tongue so hard it nearly bled.

I am the mother to a seventeen year old child and I promise you she is a child.
Hey so “underage girls” are…children. The word you’re looking for is children. They’re not like, women-in-waiting or women-lite or whatever. They’re children. I think some of you are very uncomfortable with what that means for you but it is still true.

The best time to expose a network of billionaire child sex traffickers is before they hurt anyone. The second best time is the very moment you find out about it.

Me: why do I have this weird, itchy rash on my left arm?
Also me after researching: Transient rashes have been reported in approximately 5% of vaccine recipients between 7 and 12 days after receipt of MMR vaccine.
Blargh! I am always the outlier! My meatsack always has to be extra!

I joined the museum today because the kid will be going off to college in August and I am trying to prepare myself by setting up hobbies now, so that I'm not a complete wreck this time next year.

Obvi. Duh.
Can you tell when a person is crushing on you?

I really need to go to the grocery store, but I just can't get motivated. I have to do wound care on Wednesday and Friday, so maybe Thursday after work.

When people say to judge someone by the standards of their time, the existence of even a single person at that time who knew right from wrong means that any person who didn’t has no excuse.

I just saw the most glorious museum exhibition I've ever seen in my life. No pictures though because we still don't have locked accounts.

Princess Diana would have loved "All Too Well" (Ten Minute Version).

I have the day off, so I am going to a museum. When I bought the tickets a few weeks ago, I figured we would have normal weather in the low 70s, and I planned on wearing a very chic ensemble. Nope. The high is 48°, so it is jeans for me!

The cleverest designs are often those that look most effortless. This 1913 gown by Lucile and worn by Heather Firbank appears to be a twist of ivory silk caught in folds by a high sash of black velvet. Of course the reality is so much more complex #V&A #FashionHistory 🗃️🪡

It snowed today. In the South. That is unheard of, y'all.

The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person.

The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person.

People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives.

And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.

I went full "If You Give a Mouse a Cookie" on the refrigerator. It started out as tossing the food that had gone off and ended with the glass shelves on a towel in the bathtub while I scrubbed them clean. If y'all happen to drop by please open up the fridge and gaze upon the sparkling shelves!

Last night was night two of progesterone, and I slept like a log. I got up once to use the facilities, but no other interruptions. It could just be the placebo effect, and I don't care. It is working!

What an exquisite photo with great ALT text.
It was a beautiful autumn day in Central Park yesterday.

Jay reskeeted this. Cool. Link is still permanently banned because she lied about him being a violent Black man, by the way.

I am rewatching The Crown and as someone who grew up in the 80s and 90s, Gillian Anderson's portrayal of Margaret Thatcher never fails to distress me because I think of the Land of Confusion video.

As always, I am a fat, middle aged Southern lady and my style choices are more exciting than Kate Middleton's.

What in the 1987 Laura Ashley lace collar is going on with Kate Middleton?

I think the leaves hit their peak today. They were just exquisite while driving to do wound care for my father.

I hit 100,000 miles on my 2013 car. I bought it new, and it had 184 miles on it when it got it. I'm going to hold on to it as long as possible!
