slowly beginning the process of getting off social media. i think there’s a better way for me than (gestures wildly) this system i’m currently stuck in. building a digital garden; link to follow soon!

searched lesbian fashion on a pinterest alternative site (cause the ads and AI have ruined pinterest) and the 6th photo was of justin bieber and his spouse

favorite band released a cover of my late grandfather’s favorite hymn (well one of his favorites). definitely cried. grief is a strange blessing.

I considered writing a long carefully constructed argument laying out the harms and limitations of AI, but instead I wrote about being a hater. Only humans can be haters.
I Am An AI Hater
I am an AI hater. This is considered rude, but I do not care, because I am a hater.

i have been fighting my health insurance for several months to get them to agree to cover my home birth (which is totally covered in-network for my plan, but they have literally 0 in-network midwives actually offering home birth so i had to find an out-of-network midwife).

feeling a weird form of claustrophobia in pregnancy; it feels like my body simply doesn’t have enough room for all my organs + digestive system + food i consume + air i breathe + the growing child

i need more SPACE and i need it FASTER than my body can grow

my top surgery scars (1 year old) are getting so light, they’re lighter than my pregnancy stretch marks (which are weirdly mostly hanging out on my legs so far)

my “almost-6-months-pregnant” walk is becoming more slow and pronounced, but i can still get off the floor from seated without using my hands! i’m trying to stay as mobile and flexible as possible 😅

wrote a song along these lines tonight (sans frog and toad, but on the idea of noticing the growth that’s already happening).
