very low energy, just lying on the rug thinking about the fan theory that Jessica Fletcher is a serial killer

you should have seen me fall to my knees when I manically baking two nights ago and my last egg slowly rolled off the counter and splatted on the floor

had a rock in my sock which feels like a possibly more niche problem than a rock in a shoe

Again: weren’t DHS officials called back into court this week specifically to explain why they deployed tear gas in a neighborhood recently, because it may have violated an ongoing temporary restraining order issued by a federal judge?
Border patrol agents deployed tear gas on the 3700 block of North Kildare where residents say a landscape worker, a resident, and a woman on a bike were detained. Video from a resident.

Ah, locals mention the federal court order here, which also requires agents to wear some identification.

Also, quite an image in here: masked, fully-geared-out DHS agents getting screamed at in a residential neighborhood by some dude who is barefoot and in pajama pants.
More from the scene

my phone desperately wants to capitalize the word “orange” this morning when I’m over here trying to text people about how orange and pretty the sunrise is (I’ve been up since 3am)

if you’re going to dance to try and shake off some of the impending doom of fascism, and you do that anywhere around my cat, just know she’s not going to be as supportive of your dancing as one would hope

I follow a Norwegian lighthouse keeper named Paal Bjørndal whose whole bit is sharing profound things that are inaudible due to high winds. I love the internet.

my cat has invented the sauna experience for herself: she sits in the open window and gets her fur a bit chilly, comes and sits in my lap, and then repeats

decided to have a glass of red wine tonight and I took two sips and then spilled a good bit down my white t-shirt and then a bit later in a separate incident spilled most of the rest on the floor so I don’t think this is the night for a cute glass of wine

saw a picture of my neck from an angle I don’t normally see and are my lymph nodes swollen or is that how my neck is aging?!

i realize everyone is busy being fascist, fighting fascism, or trying to survive, but has anyone written a parody of Sabrina Carpenter’s Espresso called Nespresso? It feels like potentially fertile ground for parody and satire

my dad is listening to the kpop demon hunters soundtrack right now

i think the only thing I accomplished today was I trimmed one of my cat’s claws (only 9 more to go)

picture this ring of hell: waiting for a screw to be pulled out of car tire (new tires bought only a little while ago) almost doubled over with the pain of day 2 menstruation cramps with the knowledge that I didn’t successfully get That’s Showbiz Baby! Jade tour tickets while Fox News blasts

i tied my braids into a knot over the top of my hat to get them out of the way and then promptly forgot about it & I’ve truly been walking around town looking bonkers

the last names of the weather team on my local news station are: Hale, Strong, Still, & Action. All of which feel very on theme 🌦️
