TERFs and transphobes do not follow me, thanks :)
My PCP sent me to a new electrophysiologist who i finally got to see today. This is ultimately in response to the disabling event I've been dealing with since last November, but the referral to this particular Dr came from the cardiac emergency in August.

He. Is. Wonderful.

Between what I have been dealing with health-wise and my partner's upcoming surgery and everything we have to do to get ready for that (and hosting his family next weekend), I am not sure we are doing holiday cards this year 😩 we are normally at least halfway finished making them by now!

@leighmarts.bsky.social I just saw you featured in Gary's substack from the Arts Council Open House! I was reading about the city council elections, kept scrolling and was like "hey, I know that artist!"

Gosh, I love my town so much. Got my Friday decaf in the picturesque uptown area in my cute coffee shop, chatted with the man who is a fixture there, walked out as clock chimed noon and crunchy leaves swirled around. Came home and took an autumn walk with my neighbor and we planned Thanksgiving 💜

Thirteen years ago, a pulmonary embolism tried to take me out. I'm still here, bitches!

Syncope? More like syncopwheeee, amirite?

(Trauma anniversary can make this flare which is v cool, but is also why various obsessions pop up. Hence lake freighters, but I bet you thought it was bc the 50th anniversary of the wreck of thr Edmund Fitzgerald is on Monday, didn't you? COINCIDENCE!)
November 7, 2025 at 11:42 PM
Anyone who talks to me thr next couplea days better be ready to hear all about lake freighters

(Yes, I cried about the Edmund Fitzgerald several times today, why do you ask?)

Someday SOON I will hear the Barker Bark. I will make it happen.

I have never seen my polling location as busy as it was today in the middle of the workday--even in a presidential contest year. Yes, there is a ballot measure working people in town up, but this is a reaction to the fascism.

Goddamn I hate standard time. I'm happy I live much further west in the time zone, but when I was a kid, I would be dodging cars on my way home from school (no effing sidewalks that entire mile) and my extracurriculars didn't even go that late.

Last year we handed out SO much candy on Halloween, I thought we would run out, so I bought more this year, and the weather SUCKED. it was in the 30s, raining, winds gusting at 27mph. I barely got any kids. There are a handful of towns doing beggar's night tonight, so I hope they all get their loot

I got some degree of upset at a bicyclist yesterday who was not following pedestrian OR traffic laws, traveling the wrong way on the road, then on the sidewalk, turned without signaling, went to cut across an intersection against the signal, and then got angry with me mid-turn when I had to swerve.

We just made vegetarian poutine and gobbled it up before I remembered to take a picture.

It was delicious.

I got a decaffeinated latte today and the kid (she well could be as old as mid 20s, I am now old enough that everyone is a kid) made me some spooOOoOoOoky latte art 😭
The other one showed off her new dye job that she just did herself. This Friday routine is one of my favorites

I made the absolute BEST granola last weekend (apples that I dehydrated, oats, chopped pecans, sesame kernels, cinnamon honey) and it's made for a delicious breakfast every day.

I need to dehydrate some more apples today so I can make another batch this weekend 🤤

We did stuffed pumpkin last night and my GOODNESS was it good!

Someone said my city had 3x as much turnout as last time which was already a large percentage of the population. That's word on the street; I look for any official numbers to be released still.

Going to the orchard with my neighbor today. I'm gonna drink the shit outta some cider and be the coziest bitch! I'm bringing pumpkins and apples home, too. I was gonna make pumpkin pasta on Sunday, but I think maybe it's stuffed pumpkin time 🤤

This is good reporting on the disaster in Alaska if you're looking for a reliable summary.

This is a bigger disaster than I think most are realizing. 1500 people have been displaced by the flooding with an exceptionally complicated response and recovery.
