I keep getting followed by random people I have never interacted with, which is fine, I guess, if posts / replies don’t have suspicious shit. However. If I check your followers and you’re a guy who only and exclusively follows women? Just no, that is creepy as fuck. 🪄💫✨Instablock✨

I wish I could give those of you who suffer exactly that a bit of the peace that it brings to me.

We have 1 cat in our house — and that is all my allergic-to-fucking-everything ass can handle — but he loves my husband *very much* and ONLY, which leaves me quite catless and therefore very sad. 😿

Aaaaaaahhhhhhh, alcohol as physical pain reliever: DISCUSS.
I promise I only do this 3-4 times a year, but wow. That movie thing where they have someone down a bunch of liquor before amputating/surgery/etc. has some grounding in reality.
To be pain-free for an hour or two… I get it.

I got a COVID booster because I continue to see “healthy” people lose their health to COVID and don’t want to risk it happening to me
About 1 in 4 American adults got a covid vaccine shot during the 2024-25 virus season, a fraction health care experts warn could be smaller this year as millions wrestle with conflicting advice from the government and trusted medical orgs about the value of a shot. kffhealthnews.org/news/article...

OK, FINE. Once you get past your initial fear of power tools they are kind of fun. And a circular saw is certainly faster than a handsaw. Altho it remains **infinitely** more terrifying. 😳😳😱

The USDA sent an email to grocery stores telling them they are prohibited from offering special discounts to customers affected by the SNAP funding lapse.
I'm aware of at least 2 stores that had offered struggling customers a discount, then withdrew it after receiving this email
