Eboni is stunning in and out of Drag. Can't take my eyes off her. Karamilk is much prettier out of Drag. I feel like her makeup does her a disservice. Why do I like Hazel? A prettier less annoying Plain Jane. I also like PM, so kooky. Love that Velma is also a Drag King. #CanadasDragRace

Just saw a picture of me at like 2 or 3 years old & immediately burst into tears. Still crying now. I don't have many pics of me as a child, I look so cute & innocent & untouched by knowledge of this world. I always get told I'm like my bio Mom's twin but in that pic I look so much like my father.

Did I want to workout after work? Of course not. But I fear the wellness people are correct because I do feel better after pushing through and getting it done.

Did not want to come into work today but did it. Feeling better than I did yesterday. Still need to set that appointment but I haven't cried all morning so a step in the right direction.

For the last two days I've been in an anxiety spiral that I'm having difficulty escaping from. This season is never my favorite because of this. I am trying hard not to give in. I've faced this challenge before & I made it through. I can again. Need some help though. Will be calling a professional.

Rue McClanahan is in this episode of Law and Order from 2009. So, great seeing her in this. Season 19 has been pretty good. Cutter found his footing in this season, the writers figured him out.

Colman Domingo in an episode of Law and Order. Love seeing A-List actors in these older episodes. And of course begs the question, who hasn't been in a Law and Order franchise episode.

Made a delicious shrimp pasta for lunch. Still not sure how it was so good. So good.

This was shared voluntarily. It was meant as a compliment to her. Lovely it is not.
Pusha T and his wife Virginia are expecting a baby boy, Spring 2026. What a lovely message he wrote to her.

Work days should be shorter and so should work weeks. There's no reason for me to be sitting here for 9 hours when I'm really only productive from 7am-2pm.

Had a heart ot heart with myself about the fact that what I do professionally is not what I want to be doing right now but I've been hired to & I'm very competent to do what I'm asked so until I can change it I'm not going to hem & haw & feed my anxiety about it. It helped, I've been very productive

Don’t forget to look around and appreciate the things that are going right too.

I'm tired of hearing about what rich people think about things. It's exhausting.

OK, Season 17 definitely better than the previous 2 seasons. For the most part the episodes are great there's a lot more diversity in the plots. Seeing a religious turn coming up, a lot more of those episodes this season but it's good. Not great like it was but not as terrible as the previous ones.
So, hey listen Season 16 is worse. Whew. I don't even know where to begin. I think I'm entirely biased and I admit that but the first 10 seasons were must see TV. Then the towers fell and it all changed. I understand correlation is needed but it can't be the same writers.
So, as I've mentioned before I'm reawatching the original Law & Order, 2nd best after Criminal Intent. Currently on Season 15, & it's terrible. None of the episodes are particularly compelling, & if I have to hear about the war on terrorism one more time. The overtly Conservative slant is annoying.

Listening to old episodes of the Desus and Mero podcast and damn I do miss their voices. I'm not holding out any hope they'll reunite, plus they're in such different spaces it would never be the same. The definition of lightning in a bottle.

That mental fatigue will really get you feeling physically exhausted. I'm feeling really on edge, which is making me feel exhausted and this just throws my motivation through the door.

Mamdani's victory speech?! Wow. Just wow. Excellent speech. I'm rooting for him.

I hate that there are reports of aid supplies being robbed. Wtf is wrong with people? In the midst of people tryng to start the road to recovery, you have unconscionable people stealing, not because they need it but because they want it for nefarious purposes. How disgusting.

It's so weird being in a country where one side is literally devastated, people are scrambling to just get food & water, literally waiting to be rescued and the otheraide is just going back to business as usual. I understand, but also, I really don't. People are still waiting to hear from family.

This ear infection has me down bad. The pain is hard to handle. I can't even think straight because it's both ear and jaw pain. I can barely open my mouth. Had to pop an unprescribed pill just now in hopes of just limiting the pain until I can take the prescribed stuff.
October 31, 2025 at 8:59 AM
Ear infection where the pain ramped up by 100 overnight and because of a technical issue I had to wait over 2, nearly 3 hours for a doctor to tell me what I already knew. The pain is brutally affecting my grateful meter so I'm giving myself a pass for feeling shitty right now.
