Odin is a very trick or treat kind of god
Wednesday Addams
Midweek—like the solstice of the week, liminality can be in the middle
SO eyeballs it is!

I’m having this belated realization that there are places in this country where people don’t hear Spanish and other languages spoken all the time (at the grocery store, the post office etc), don’t see store signs in Spanish or other languages. I’m glad I don’t live that way.

Why? I love my caffeinated drinks!

I also like my food full fat—because it tastes good and I like a bit of salt!
My health stats are all excellent

...It's still kinda messed up that he just murdered someone in front of a group of police officers, and not only did no one stop him, but there was literally no consequences at all for it.
Just consider that, had that been an animal like a cat, he would have been arrested there and then.

I suppose I also take this personally bc attacks on craftivism land poorly with me as a Native person. Beading together, making regalia, sewing in groups — this is at the heart of how the women on my reservation gather to do healing work, political ed, and mutual aid. This has long been true.

I refuse to use ChatGPT to make a little cartoon version of me and my interests.
But also I like social media trends.
So I will ask you, the people, to badly draw a little cartoon of me featuring sharks.
Please don't spend too much time on this. Badly drawn is fine.

It was genuinely Kafka-esque
Utterly insane
I mean, I think my kicking up a stink got things changed
BUT it seem MI just went “oooh! Mandelson has some very interesting and dodgy stuff going on here with Epstein! His file must be MASSIVE!”
And recorded it all
But did nothing

Oh yes! And they were all beautifully recorded
Just they never did anything like—you know—go and check the fridge to see if the door was open? Or email those responsible for the lab where the fridge was housed
Or let people KNOW the long term storage freezer in lab X was not actually freezing
