Still drinking to survive parenting, politics, and the overwhelming fuckery of modern times 🥃
I woke up today with hope for a fresh new year only to see the Bourbon St attack. My daughters were in the FQ last night. They are safe but my heart hurts. 2025 woke up and chose violence today 😔

I’m thinking Mangione blew it when we went to McDonald’s. He goes to a Waffle House and someone hides the gun for him and probably keeps it, he goes to a Popeyes and nobody is talking to the cops, he goes to a Starbucks and people buy him breakfast.

My two big girls are coming home from university for Christmas next week. I have to dismantle the bunkbeds and assemble the new beds beforehand. This little fucking Allen wrench is my only tool. I’m gonna need a cocktail first.

A painfully accurate thread 🧵
As we brace for the transition-inauguration media coverage of the second Trump administration, a Twitter/X thread from July 2024 about how "normalization" is justified ... Starts in next reply.

I want to shout out to my #4, my last teenager, my little demon on her 13th birthday. She has too much hair and too much personality for such a tiny force of nature. I love you Emerson ❤️

Another brilliant essay. I’m still digesting its insights but I’m struck by the “victim blaming” inherent to manifesting. So obvious and yet unrealized until it’s laid bare and contrasted with other practices.
This remains one of my favorite essays I’ve written on Substack because the details of history are so whimsical: why medieval service magicians were a far more rational way of manipulating the world than modern manifesting: www.forkingpaths.co/p/why-manife...
Why "manifesting" is far more irrational than using a medieval service magician
In the medieval past, people would routinely employ "cunning folk" or "service magicians" to help them. They were much more effective, rational, and ethical than many spiritual practices today.

Truly fascinating and wonderful. Makes me want to break out my copies of Herodotus, Tacitus, and Gibbon

I’m getting ready to go into work for a 6hr class (😑). I just discovered that the cat has pissed on the middle of a clean pile of laundry like she was adding Satans secret sauce to a sundae. Now she’s demanding breakfast.

It’s just a little thing but my oldest daughter is celebrating two years with her girlfriend this evening. I love and adore these two more than I can say. I am overwhelmed thinking of everything that they had to overcome simply to be happy and accepted. I love you girls, to the moon and back ❤️

Honest question y’all- does anyone else pick up stuff with their toes? My little prehensile digits are beyond useful for grasping shit off the floor, opening gates, practically texting. Still freaks out the hubby but I suspect he’s just jealous that sock puppets are more versatile than his feet.

I just explained tariffs and greedflation to my 12yr old daughter in 90secs and she understood immediately.
Her only question was why so many never bothered to google or verify what they were being told.
I wish I knew, baby girl.

The soul crushing despair and grief shifted towards rage and disgust. Now I feel a calm approaching. I smirk watching dipshits crash face first into FAFO. I live in Louisiana- this dumb fuckery is our historical baseline.
Y’all just don’t know.
