Idk if I can stay on here, it’s literally just become the Bad News Machine and I know it’s important to stay informed but Jesus Christ

Driving through the town I went to high school in and seeing big ol’ “THIS IS TRUMP COUNTRY” signs everywhere confirms that 16 year old me was right, this is a trash hole 🙃

What’s that? It’s going to be nearly 50 degrees today? Cool! Oh wait, we have a wind advisory and The Child won’t put on pants. Another fun day inside!!!

ICONIC: Yosemite National Park workers just hung an upside-down American flag—THOUSANDS of feet up on El Capitan. That’s not decoration. That’s a distress signal. They’re telling us the country is in danger. Are you paying attention?

Getting stuff finalized for C’s daycare and signing my offer letter for work and trying not to have a menty b about it

C has refused to put pants on today, but also refuses to take his sunglasses off inside so he’s really rocking a look today.

Shoutout to the guy clearing snow in the cafe parking lot who let C look in the cab and touch the wheels of his front end loader, he’s still jazzed and yelling about tractors an hour later

I got a notice from C’s doctor’s office saying I need to call them to reschedule (they fired his pediatrician for being vocal about poor hospital working conditions) and I know the people on the phone aren’t in charge but I will be making my displeasure about this known. Politely. But still.

Happy snow day to me and my child who thinks his snow pants are a torture device

Fingers crossed that the mouse traps actually fully WORK tonight and I don’t have to do something gross and traumatic again in the morning 🥲

Look who’s exhausted from a long night of waking the baby up and not doing fuckall about the mouse in the house

My friend Garrett once absolutely skewered a guy for saying something sexist, and when someone else tried to defend him by saying 'he's just saying it to get a reaction' Garrett followed with 'well this is the reaction, is anyone enjoying it?'

The sexist was silent the rest of the night.
Cis men truly need to understand the power of saying “that’s fucked up bro why would you say that” to another cis man
The responsibility for resisting and correcting this behavior shouldn’t fall solely on a specific gender. If you’re a man of conscience and you see another man mimicking Nick Fuentes, fuck him up on sight before the women even get a chance. I mean that.

Imagine being in your late 50s and being mad about who won the Grammy for best country album.

Well done for making it to the end of January.

Stop whatever you're doing and read a book to reward yourself.

If you don't have a book, then buy one from an indie bookshop, that way you'll be making TWO people happy.

Reminder to myself: do not lie down after putting the baby down for a nap. You will not rest. You will doomscroll. Go work out.
