The secret to happiness is a couch, an xxl heating pad, a queen-sized micro-fleece blanket, and the newest season of GBBO. Ask me how I know.

Oh, I see you were at Thanksgiving at my uncle's place this year.
calmly explaining why we shouldn't bomb random venezuelan boats to people who argued we should torture random iraqis and then won an election by saying they were against a war they advocated for

Good luck with recovery, Bob!

It's been 4 months since leaving a decade-long relationship that was mostly happy (& that sucked to leave) and my friends are already trying to set me up with dates.

Makes me realize how different my sense of my own timeline is. Call me back in 1.5-2 years, guys. Maybe I'll be ready by then.

Reviewed my close friends list on Insta (cause I was using it) and noticed my friend who died almost 3 years is still on it.

I kept her on it, of course.

Love you, Jules. 💖

I'm sorry. Zohran has Lina Khan on his team? Lina Khan? Blessed, sir. You are blessed. That woman is as competent as they come and with exactly the right amount of tenacity for modern bureaucracy.

I'm stupid-psyched for this.

The biggest difference by far watching the various campaigns as a New Yorker and all of the messaging we were targeted with I think is an important takeaway for the whole country:

Cuomo’s entire message was threats and fear and cynicism.

Mamdani’s entire message was lightness and joy and hope.

I hope tonight gives her energy and encouragement. She's so right.

This is why you can't succumb to nihilism. I know it's SO fucking hard, but that's what the fash want: for us to give up. Fuck them, it's not over

I gotta give it up to the writers tho. If NYC elects a Muslim mayor on the day Dick Cheney died, that is one hell of a slow played story arc. Every time you want to fire 2025's writers room they give you a little narrative resolution as a treat.

Guys can you imagine getting to see Andrew Cuomo eat shit and concede twice in one year. Fuck me running

If someone would like to time-teleport me to when I'm all moved in to this apartment (and done unpacking) I would so greatly appreciate it.

This weekend I was fighting off a cold, got a cold sore, and started my period.

Then I woke up this morning with a migraine aura.

Body. Why.
