I would like to personally curse the person who came up with the concept of “online only” sales.

Hi everyone. It’s Friday. As a retail employee, I would like to request that you not go shopping today. Or at all for the next month. Thank you.

It’s time.

Stepping gingerly back onto Bluesky for the occasional word vomit into the abyss. But between opening the app, reading an emotional XKCD post, and typing all of this out, I forgot what I was going to say.

At this point the situation is so ridiculous it’s almost hilarious.

The silliest thing we tell people is that there’s no time to cry. Crying doesn’t take that long. You can cry and then do the stuff afterwards. Take a cry break.

I think corporations should be required to follow the three laws of robotics.

I saw someone argue that people posting about their day to day lives are putting their heads in the sand and not doing enough about the current *gestures broadly.*

Frankly, I think this is a bad take.

For starters, one doesn’t know what others are doing *off* of social media based on their posts.

I am so tired of having to smell weed constantly in the apartment where neither of us smoke, thanks to a shared ventilation system. But I don’t want to rat anyone out to the apartment complex either. I don’t know a good solution but I hate it. I may as well be living with a smoker again. 😡

The 1-2 hour window before breakfast and dinner time, the cats are in peak asshole mode.

I hate having a door knocker because for some reason EVERY SINGLE PERSON decides to use it even though it is tiny and just knocking like a normal person would be way more effective. So it just makes this unsettling clanking sound out of nowhere.

Remember when Pink wrote that highly relatable lyric “Tired of being compared to damn Britney Spears?”

Saw an ad for one of those old handheld Tiger games and one of the selling points is how you can play it “again and again.” They would say that about VHS tapes, too. “Buy the movie and watch it again and again!”

One of my favorite things about Severance is how ridiculous they make workplace morale building look.

The problem with new music is that it wasn’t seared into my happiness receptors at a formative age. The problem with music that was seared into my happiness receptors at a formative age is that I’ve heard it too much.

I have a one in four chance of peeing a little bit when I sneeze, and that’s what being 40 is like.

I have been reading a bit less the past couple of weeks due to burnout. Still reading something daily, but not hitting every book. This update is for the past two weeks since I missed last week.

Started Last Week:
-Tin Man by Sarah Winman

Starting This Week:
-Everything is TB by John Green

In book 1 of my Twilight parodies, I had a throwaway line about the main character’s name being legally changed because I thought it was funny to both 1) Create a conflict and immediately solve it and 2) Never explain. But if I had ANY WRITING CHOPS AT ALL, it would have become relevant in book 4.

We spend a lot of time romanticizing Blockbusters, and I don’t necessarily think we should give streaming sites TOO much credit, but as a person who hates leaving the house, I appreciate their immediacy and the ability to almost always find what you’re looking for.

The thing about Dancing Queen is the lyrics are simple, but the music sounds like someone aching for a past that no longer exists. I think it would be more powerful if the chorus said “You WERE the Dancing Queen.”
