Pretty sure i just broke the tip of my finger trying to wrangle on a fitted sheet. No pain, just wont stay straight without a splint.

Good reminder to go ahead and get that referral for a DEXA scan. 😖

My favorite part of hosting is when they leave and i can enjoy my clean cozy house alone.

Sooo Kegsbreath right away stated the attacked Guard members were killed, then had to walk it back. 🧐

I feel like more Americans need to watch Scandal.

This is a fantastic piece that actually talks about the expense of childcare, though I bristled at “raised by strangers” and no explanation of the impact that NOT working has on a caregiver’s (usually women) economic life- but the overall piece is very OMG YES THIS IS WHAT WE ARE SAYING
This is an insightful but deeply upsetting article about why everyone in the US feels poor, and why the current political situation emerges as a direct result.

I don’t think we are saying enough: no one should be kidnapped, caged, tortured, or deported

There is too much “good immigrant” vs “bad immigrant” story telling happening

We need charge-neutral bail & bond funds. We need ways of repairing harm & healing that don’t involve incarceration

Sometimes adulthood means being super excited for this paycheck's ration of insulated curtains to arrive.

I'm gonna have it looking like a circus tent in here by April. Fuck the energy companies.

Another month, another giant walk-back for Jehovah's Witnesses.

After a childhood full of secret literal panic attacks whenever i overheard the phrase "peace and security" on the news... they've decided it no longer means the onset of Armageddon.

Hooray for the new gen of cult babies, i guess.

8 days after a power outage, fire stick still seems dead. I finally feel confident ive done every possible combination of troubleshooting. Lesson learned: fire stick needs surge protector.

Fortunately they're on sale now. Poor Esme-cat misses her evening shows.

Holy cow Maine needs its own South Of The Border!!!
New Hampshire has a liquor store right in the highway to get out of staters going through… why doesnt Maine have a marijuana dispensary/gun store/fireworks store on the Maine Turnpike?

Ive started the practice of stoßluften (shock-ventilating by flinging open all the windows for a few mins, 2-3x a day).

Cat with smelliest poos has started the practice of doing her thing as soon as i close all the windows back up. 😭😭😭

I’ve never had any interest in Twilight. Vampirism makes me queasy.

But now i fear it has reached the level of pop culture where I’m missing out on memes that arent niche anymore. Guess I’ll be having a movie session to catch up.

Insulated curtains to the rescue.

Hey optometry students!

Know where you could move after graduating that is GORGEOUS & you could have your calendar booked out a full year ahead within days of starting practice?

Maine needs you! The shortage is insane. Please consider coming here.

So call center logistics are weird, but basically on-shore agents take calls they normally wouldnt when the need is urgent.

Like when our offshore call center is having a historic storm & we’re just hoping for their safety.

A horrible week for a lot of phone errands, sorry folks.

Rain. Nope, sleet. Nope, rain. Nope, both?

Glad i was semi-productive outside yesterday.

Company i work for is hiring remote customer service folks. Solid CS background a must, bonus points for remote work history. Bankers’ hours.

DM for a link &/or referral, depending how well i know you.

Overtired since i had to get up early to return my sleep study monitor this morning.

But the world is insane and my brain is WIRED. Maybe a smoke under the stars will help reign in the panic long enough to sleep.

NO on Question 1

Not sure about upcoming ballot questions?
The GOP (w/Leonard Leo) backed ballot measure, if passed, would radically restrict voting in Maine.

40% of Mainers & 60% of Maine seniors depend on mail voting. Do not let this measure pass. #NoOn1
