Putting my Christmas decorations up or down inflame my allergies. It’s like I have upset the resting spirits of the attic or something. Most likely just dust.

The advertising clips for Trek Academy somehow managed to capture the things I hated about college. I’m glad to hear the show seems to be appealing to its chosen demographic though.

Some days you have to ask your boss to stop and read your previous answer.

Hot take: in almost every space ship shot in Star Trek, you should have seen the Milky Way somewhere in the background. The camera would have to be motionless pointing straight up or down aligned with the galactic poles for it to disappear.

I’d support a law requiring the termination of any marketing team’s employment if they use “ordinary” and “extraordinary” in the same tag line.

You may end a friendship if they ever say “well, now that you’ve mentioned it, I can’t unsee it.”

When Friday night is “is this glass clean? Ehhh it doesn’t matter.”

Maybe I will keep chatting with someone I know is a bot on a Friday night. Maybe. I. Will.

“Wow, what happened to you?!” Is evidently not an appropriate greeting to someone you haven’t seen in a while.

“Why don’t you like winter boots?” Because as a kids, they were terrible. Didn’t fit. Felt every pebble through the thin soles. The leg part was huge but my legs were stick so the snow got in. Their claims of waterproof were lies. And the cold was insane.

Staying fit is tough when you’ve caught a bug that won’t be done with you. 95% better, try to get back into routine, still wipes you out. Guess I just have to give it another couple days. Naps aren’t so bad I guess.

Oooh the sun. It is warm. All 27 and a half minutes of it.

I’m never gonna make it.

Hey, Corp AI, tell your Marketing and Sales Departments that when I order mens clothing, don’t recommend women’s wear to me in your emails.

My renewed interest in city living evaporated having to deal with multiple parking garages today. Nothing bad happened. Today. But… what’s the opposite of nostalgia, when you recall UN-pleasant memories?

That social media ad with that “influencer voice” is going to tank your product.

I only have “new weekend” resolutions. And one of them is to call an electrician.

Is today the day of the year when most people who ask “why can’t I have that?” answer “the patriarchy”?
Meanwhile, I resolve to increase the boundaries for my matriarchal family. A bunch of crazy ladies.

My quibble with “dress in layers” winters is that too many elastic bands can end up on the same spot.

Year end Insta reels are like a strobe light. Did you include ever post you’ve ever made this year?
January 1, 2026 at 2:24 AM
Maybe I’ll make brownies tonight. “Oh, for a New Year’s Eve party?” Suuuuuuuuuuure.

People who want to reject open floor plans didn’t have a mom who was in her element screaming at the family across the house from the great room. Closed doors and doors and doors and she has to march over there because you didn’t hear her yelling? You in trouble.

The amount of restaurant gift cards I got makes me think my family doesn’t have faith that I can feed myself and make it thru the winter.

Merry Christmas to everyone who caught a germ from a holiday gathering.
December 26, 2025 at 2:28 AM
Work from home. When your cohorts can’t see tagged you’ve had your shirt on backwards all day.

I hope a lot of retail executives learned this year that putting up signs saying “holiday saving” but having everything at full price except the normal “nobody wants clearance” items will cost them their jobs.
