One thing missing from the "TikTok/Social Media/The Internet is ruining our attention spans" Discourse is that late-stage capitalism is running us all ragged.

It's hard to focus on reading a challenging book or watching an avant-garde film when all your brainpower is spent on surviving.

It's been a couple of days but I'm still proud of this big lot of carnitas I made!

the entire point of algorithmic timelines is for tech billionaires to shove whatever the fuck they want to down your throat

like for fucks sake at least on a tv you can change the channel but on social media apparently its censorship if you dont want to see fascist content

fuck all the way off

Feels like a lot of people read that famous poem about how to deal with fascists and said "I've got the trade unionists' back, so I'm good"

Oh hey I have 100 followers! I don't think that ever happened in The Other Place, even before it was sabotaged.

I love how concrete cooking is, especially compared to my day job of programming computers to communicate with each other. There's beef stew in the slow cooker and every step of getting it ready felt so immediate, even though the actual end product will take hours of simmering.

Finally giving Stardew Valley 1.6 a try and, while I'm still early on, I like the improvements!

Probably going to be engaging in more food posting here in the next while. Things are tough but feeding the people I love helps them out and gives me strength.

Still fucked up by Recent World Events but at least today I got enough groove back to cook for my family. Here's some chicken marinating to be roasted on a giant bed of vegetables:

My phone just auto corrected "trauma dumping" to "trauma dumpling," so I painted this in case anyone would like a visual of my mental state.

How's everyone else doing?

This is the thing that's getting me. this isn't another 4 rough years, this is the start of a new and entirely different era of state power wielded *solely* for cruelty without the semi-functional guardrails of modernity that the relatively liberal administrative state provided.
i think that the people interested in recriminations and score settling right now aren’t seriously grappling with the magnitude of what happened and the implications for the rest of our lives. most of us will probably die living in the political order that will emerge out of this election.

I've played a bunch of RPGs since I finished New Vegas in March and, while they've been good times, I'm back in the Mojave with a new character and a new build.

There still isn't a result in the BC provincial election because it's uncomfortably close, which is pretty stressful for me. The meteoric rise of the BC Conservative Party from fringe nobodies to possibly forming government threatens my queer family, our education, and our healthcare.

It's not what people usually mean by wake and bake but I made bran muffins first thing this morning!

Heading out to go play some board games with a bunch of queer women I've never met. Should be fun!

I made curry!

Surprisingly many songs sound like "Can't Get You Out of My Head" when you're too far away from the speaker to hear the treble.

I sure do love cooking! Made chow mein for dinner and coconut tapioca pudding with nectarines for dessert, and it was so much fun!

I'm feeling ambitious so I tried making cherry clafoutis today, it's looking like it will be really tasty!

Alright, I've done my weekly feminization ritual! (my estrogen shot)

Well the fuckers who own my employer made some drastic changes while I was on vacation and it's really messed me up. Like I have confidence for everything but work...

I don't do well with heat, which is really getting in the way of me trying to write the T4T sapphic romance novel I wish existed in the world.
