Day 1 on my ADHD meds (generic vyvanse). HOLY CRAP! I can function normally?! It's like the fog and heaviness have been lifted. Before meds, EVERYTHING required substantial effort, and I felt like I was constantly failing. Today feels lighter, more doable. Feels nice.

Noticed this new leaf on my Anthurium King of Spades. It definitely gave me a dopamine hit.

It's always a dangerous game when you go to a greenhouse "just to get soil". Sometimes, plants just jump onto your cart.

The cellblock at the Ottawa courthouse is looking for donations of winter gear for formerly incarcerated people who are often released with nothing but the shirts on their backs.
You can drop donations at the courthouse at 161 Elgin, to the attention of Sheri.

"If the public gets so apathetic to attacks on trans people that coded language is no longer necessary, Republicans will no longer need to stick to niche issues like sports to get to trans people. They’ll be able to start a far more comprehensive and violent regime of eradication."
On a precipice
In the 2024 American election, Republicans spent nearly $215 million dollars on ads fear mongering about the presence of trans people in society. It was their wedge issue of choice, along with manufac...

If you followed evidence, you wouldn't support conservative positions. To address the threat of being informed, conservatives have been undermining teaching of critical thinking skills, silencing diverse views, attacking scientists for their evidence-based conclusions, banning books, etc.

Having plants has brought me so much joy.

Variegated bear paw
Both are very soft and fuzzy.

This is what 47.82$ worth of groceries looks like in Ottawa, Ontario. Yes, I splurged on water flavour drops, but they bring joy to my life. Anyway, this is bonkers.

I found a recipe online for edible cookie dough. Though it’s not perfect, it’s close enough to satisfy a craving: 1 cup oat flour, I cup dates, 1/3 cups milk, chocolate chips, vanilla extract. I give this a rating of 7.5/10. Worth trying. Perhaps substitute some oat flour with protein powder?

I made a bilingual radio play that's a satire about trans moral panics. I've worked on it for the past 18 months; it's been my way to deal with the moment.
