I'm so hungry that I might actually perish. But I can't move because... #kitty

Anyway, since today is garbage... I finished my #LEGO kingfisher and Em is embarking on a new #Gundam...
Picture of a blue LEGO kingfisher to the right there is a plate with an orange LEGO wrench, the book for a Gundam and a green cutting mat with model snippers.

Please remember who the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. was. He was radical; he was subversive; he did not "Have a dream" because he was merely idealistic, but because in his mind, racial equity could only ever be a dream and possibly never anything more. AND he paid for it with his life.

This is approximately 20 minutes worth of 2FA texts while paying my bills. With some places requiring 2FA to login AND to access account info. It almost (only almost) driven me to make a phone call instead.

Feels like it's a good time to pin this.

Also if you are transphobic, or a TERF...

My friend went to an Asian Lantern Festival in Florida, and it reminded me to revisit some of my fave photos. We got lucky with a misty rain that wasn't too bad to walk in AND made for some stellar shots. Two of my faves... #photography #faves
A nighttime photo of a very large lit orange octopus lantern with teal lit seaweed lanterns reflected in the rain on the ground. A little girl in a yellow raincoat and teal umbrella is walking in front. A nighttime photo of a lit pathway with up lit trees that look like seaweed and hanging purple jellyfish lanterns above it. All reflected on the wet pavement below.

Had one above my house recently... Just an iPhone pic. I'm 51 and it's the first time I've ever seen one.

Oh hello! The sickness & burnout lifted enough to get the tree up! AND because we have never been a normal family, what could presumably be card worthy photos in other households... are GigaChads and Xmas a la Shonen in ours. I did get quite a nice one of my youngest putting on the angel, though.
A rainbow colored Christmas tree with white lights, silver tinsel and an eclectic mix of ornaments. There is a black angel in a red dress on top of the tree. Two teenage boys with GigaChad faces-the older one with longish brown hair and a black t shirt, the younger one with red curly hair and a dark green hoodie-standing in front of the lit rainbow tree. The same two boys in front of a lit rainbow tree, only the younger one with red curly hair is pretending to slice the longish-haired older boy's neck anime style with a foam katana.

No surprise on JJK, but only 155 hrs? Then I remembered Bleach is on Hulu & our mission to stay ahead of One Piece baby is on Netflix and so is Demon Slayer because casting from Crunchyroll sucks. And music as the genre? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ My faves in 2024 were JJK, Frieren & Hell's Paradise.
2024 Crunchyroll Arc screenshot. Arc type: Mercenary With A Heart of Gold (Literally, it's cursed and it's heavy); Watch Hours 155 hours; Titles Watched 21 Titles; Genre Range 8 Genres, Top Genre Music; Longest Streak 17 weeks; Peak Day March 1; Favorite Show Jujutsu Kaisen 1 Top Series for 2024- Jujutsu Kaisen. JJK title cover art. Yuji in the middle in his navy blue uniform with red hood. Many characters surround him all in shades of purple.

Shout out to the person who stopped me at the grocery store this evening and very politely said, "Excuse me ma'am. You look fly. -
All of it." And after I said thanks, they turned around and continued their order at the deli. So anyway... you probably can't tell me nothing for a few days.

MUCH better! 🎄#OhChristmasTree
A picture of the top of a sideboard with many different types and colors of Christmas trees. 3 lit ceramic trees-big one is green, medium one is white and small one is pink. There are also bottle brush trees from big to very tiny in many colors. There is a snowman family. Another snowman, a mushroom bird and a tree bird. There is also a wooden Santa Christmas countdown that we always just do as a calendar because... math.

Fam, when I tell you the internet did not prepare me for how sparkly these boots were... #LifeIsTooShortToWearBoringShit
