Cat pics of Hazel, Lucy, and Zora, plus whining about how my body hurts and I’m tired
Okay I need to save a lot more points before my next trip and/or fly JAL because yeah my body can’t fly to Asia in uncomfortable seats with bad food anymore. Running on less than an hour of sleep last night isn’t helping either… and why TF did they order vegan meals for us for no reason?! #hangry

LOL new google home assistant w/gemini launched today and it’s all like check out these different voices and they all sound literally the same on the app — but jarringly different when they are live on the devices. Love first day launch bugs

Japan's "Mundane Halloween" costume contest is back!

Each year website DailyPortalZ holds a contest where people dress up as something super duper ordinary.

Here's a thread of some of my favorites from the 2025 contest!

I’m having some fucking feelings! Life has been WAY TOO MUCH lately.

Japan is coming up soon at least. Gotta squeeze all the fun out of it that I can and hope that things don’t go sideways while I’m away.

Figured out last night via Ancestry research and DNA matches that I’m distantly related to Albert Brooks and likely Albert Einstein as well. The best part was telling my mom—she assumed it was via my very silly dad, but no it was on her side! Her mind was blown.

I’ve been trying some new medication and not only has it brought back my flexibility and given me more energy but I can have near-religious experiences listening to music again, just in time for KPop Demon Hunters at the movie theater. A+

Coincidentally starting a new med on the same day as my cycle starts is WILD. My body is like oh my gosh I suddenly feel amazing what’s up I don’t need sleep I can run through walls! While my brain is like WTF IS HAPPENING ZAP ZAP I guess I should alternate between hyperfocus and anxiety???

"You know what I am nearly 100 percent certain about? Hitler never attended the opening of a single location... Like, what fascist leader in their right mind would appear on camera for a ribbon-cutting ceremony for their Center for Crimes Against Humanity?"
Don’t Be Ridiculous, “Alligator Alcatraz” Is Not Another Example of History Repeating Itself
Oh, come on. ICE’s new detention center, Alligator Alcatraz, is nothing like a concentration camp. For one thing, historians unanimously agree that...

Yep. And I still remember very clearly asking my mom about the 90s gulf war as a kid — what if my friends’ dads die in the fighting? (I lived in a place with a lot of military families) It’s all so sad and terrible and unnecessary
If you were too young in 2003 here is what Bush told the American people:

1) The Iraq War won’t cost a lot of money
3) We won’t need a lot of troops
4) We’ll bring peace and freedom to Iraq
5) We’ll find WMDs
6) We’ll be welcomed as liberators
7) It will be easy
8) It won’t take long

All lies.

What they do to Gaza and Iran they will ultimately justify on those at the border and within 👍

So… anti war protest tomorrow??

Sometimes I wonder if I am fundamentally broken after being subjected to the humor of Frank DeLima in elementary school assemblies. Any other Oahu 80s-90s kids on here know what I’m talking about?
