I anticipated a few things when setting out to open my own business. I did not anticipate the two dozen new types of taxes that I previously did not know existed.

Scribbles is apparently a huge fan of churros de rueda. He just demolished a wheel of it, and is presumably sleeping it off

I call my main shed mouse Scribbles, because the noises he makes sounds exactly like a quill pen on paper. He is very loud. Not sure how he hasn't been eaten yet.

Im literally talking to the mice in my shed that are fighting like they can understand me. Yet every time they anger squeak, I can't help myself and say "guys!"

I think i finally understand superstition. I want to say we are close to opening, but am scared that if I do, the universe is gonna smoosh me flat, like 'bish, you thought what?'

Puffcorns are packing peanuts with flavor on, and I just hoovered a whole bag into my maw. Delicious

It has become abundantly clear to me that I will ignore any post that isn't on Discord. Those interested in my shop please go to
discord.gg/HvEKSbTm because I am absolute green donkey balls at keeping up on any other platform

Not even open yet but my coffee manager is getting rando solicitations from mccoffeeshop guys. If I wanted a franchise, I would have bought one. God knows it would have been easier than what I'm trying to do.

Also, I got a couple machine. I still have insomnia but the air is really nice

Insomnia makes my thoughts trend weird. Example: i was suddenly reminded of being quite disappointed that my team members didn't like Robusto cheese like I do

Hey everyone: we got stalled for several months trying to get completed drawings for the city, but that is finally done! (I HOPE) Now waiting to hear back from the city, and I sincerely hope we can start moving again and get construction done!

My book manager is bringing me a satchel of Brautigan!

Real question. I have semi obligated myself to make my neighbor a Yule fritata. Do I go wacky and attempt an eggnog fritatta or stick to a more traditional one?

Y'all, business progress aside, take care of your backs. I threw mine out all the way to the 9th circle of hell four days ago and I'm still not ok. Backs apparently control most of movement. I'll be OK but damn. Take care of your back!

Things finally moving again! Back of the shop looks terrible but our sign is going up!
August 28, 2025 at 3:24 PM
I should update, its progress? The shop now looks like an archeological dig. I have learned about pipes, sump pumps, and how the kilowatts of a water heater can make your day or fuck you over. That said, I have an utterly amazing team on my side, who are kind, knowledgeable and just plain awesome
July 26, 2025 at 6:00 AM
I haven't been so great with updates, and I apologize. A bad insomnia jag hath me in thrall. However, things are looking good! Construction has started and I found a good local supplier.
June 29, 2025 at 11:07 AM
Update: I have a contract for construction and running it by some very smart people so I don't make any silly mistakes. Please keep sending good vibes!

For anyone showing up to the protests around LA this weekend, please bring supplies. Paper towels, milk, water, snacks, and any extra masks. Wear protective gear like helmets, goggles, full face protection, and heat resistant gloves. The tear gas canisters are hot and will burn

Menopause for me: has been like this: you're fine. Nope, now you are a rotisserie chicken. Nope, now you are colder than you have ever been. Nope, now you're crying at videos and wanting to murder people who chew or blink loudly. Oh, and pernicious insomnia and your favorite foods hate you now

Hey what if for pride we shared and funded trans people’s mutual aid and fundraisers?

Neat, I’ll go first.
