I wish Duolingo asked me why I was deleting my account.. Anyway, good luck with the "AI-first" thing, Duo.

Loki doesn't like it when I pay attention to anything else but him.

I can barely afford groceries, Gayle, how the fuck am I supposed to go to space?

How to make friends with your neighbors in 3 steps (a thread 🧵):

1. Awkwardly go door to door asking neighbors if you can pick some dandelion flowers from their yards. It helps if you're sweaty and beet red.

And sometimes dinner is whatever leftover vegetables you find in the freezer just about to be freezer burnt and a can of garbanzo beans you found in the back of a cabinet.

I don't think I have ever cried as hard as this over a book before. 📚💙

Watching the movie adaptation is going to be BRUTAL.

I was about to *finally* start Severance when my phone chimed with an email that my library had acquired more e-copies of Sunrise on the Reaping & it was available NOW, would I like it?

I guess I'll start the show tomorrow, then.

For now, I will read. And cry.

Still no water.

But my post-Covid brain is functioning enough to read again, so that's nice. I read Sharp Objects yesterday. Amazing read.

They're doing work on our water main. Haven't had water in 2 days. Won't have water until *at least* tomorrow.

I feel massively inconvenienced, yet also like this is the epitome of a First World Problem.

I won't know for sure that a new tattoo will solve all of my problems until I try.

Sorry I have been M.I.A., I had COVID.

Testing negative now, and feeling better, but not feeling 100% by any means.

Being (mildly) allergic to wheat is great, because if you're ever constipated you can just have a sandwich on regular bread and within the hour you're shitting out everything you've ever eaten. Ever.

Got a printer? You can start fighting fascism. Here's a thread of things you can print and distribute. 👇

I promise doing something--even this--feels better than raging silently. And maybe it'll show you that standing up is possible and open you up to more things you can do.

Good morning! If anyone sees my youngest walking to the bus stop in a t-shirt and sweatpants, just know that I TOLD her it was cold. She has a giant hoodie in her backpack. It just clashes with her outfit.

Why is it that when I look in the mirror, I look decent. Not drop-dead gorgeous or anything, but I look pretty damn good! But when I take a picture of myself, I look like.. eww.

Do other people see me the way I see myself or the way the camera sees me?

Me: "If you make peanut butter cookies with more than 3 ingredients, you are WRONG"

Also me: *adds a splash of vanilla, a sprinkle of salt, and divides the sugar in half--one half white, one half brown*

1) You do not represent Donald Trump—you represent the United States of America. This statement is fundamentally anti-American.

2) Not only is this statement absurd and wrong, but it’s also grammatically incorrect. Trumps’?!

I am sick and laid up on the couch. My cat, Loki, is laying on my chest. He wants me to believe that he is concerned for me, that he is nursing me back to health. But I know he is just waiting for me to die so that he can eat my face. I love him so much.

My view right now:
