Freddie Mercury didn't go into the studio and nail the vocals for "The Show Must Go On" in one take while dying of AIDS for you to despair and give up now. Take the time you need, but then get up and get back out there.

The show must go on.

This story can't be repeated enough. The GOP is lined up behind the guy who is so incompetent that his quasi-gov't agency did this. They're confirming his highly questionable nominees & hurting the American people.

And "accidentally"? It was stupidity, not accident. www.nbcnews.com/politics/dog...

Transgender people exist.
Transgender men are men.
Transgender women are women.
Transgender soldiers are soldiers.
Full stop.

One of the reasons he is shutting down the government, he doesn't want any government agency shutting his companies down.

This takes 3 minutes. Washington state people, get in here

I'm paying attention, but need to protect my health from stress of the unAmerican coup.

That leads to today's #DiscountGroceryAdventures. Jimmy Dean chubs for $1.88 at all spots. Decided in SO location for Boar's Head Rstd Chix for $3.60/lb. Pkg of 5 Probiotic shooters $1.37. French yogurt 90¢.

China is an expansion period. Building high speed rail lines that compete with air travel. Investing in infrastructure and tourism.

Building up our country, reinvesting profit, paying good wages, and being altrusitic to other countries is how America ended up with the time that everyone idealizes.

I've been buying discounted near date foods. Try to use everything esp when it's the $5 mixed produce box.

Last night was TikTok Marry Me organic chicken breast. I used cherry tomatoes and tomato paste instead of sundried and org cream. Roasted org fingerlings for the side. It was fantastic!

For several years, I've been so sick with #MultipleMyeloma incl broken bones and treatment and I wasn't able to cook. This was a huge.

Also, I discovered I can't edit Bluesky posts. So -

I woked up this morning and ate Salted Toffee Apple Jam on toast. It's sooo good. What did you waked up and do?

We are delighted to announce a new Six-Week Workshop scholarship for Trans writers. The Sea Star Scholarship, an annual full-tuition scholarship for the Six-Week Workshop, has been offered by an anonymous donor and will be available for the first time this year.

I woked up this morning and found I still had 6lbs of Gala apples and a lemon. I peeled, cored, sliced, soaked the apples in lightly diluted lemon juice. Now, is experiement time. Butter, turbinado sugar, brown sugar, vanilla bean, spices, and evaporated milk. Caramel-Toffee Apple Jam? Maybe?

Would I get deported to South Dakota?

I'm browsing around looking for a dinner option and Insee someone has uploaded a photo to a couple of different McDonald's...

I'm feeling a bit of withdrawal from Meta. IG is where I usually share my #SnowTeam posts the most. It's a beautiful night-time snow sky.

Cis men who are receiving gender affirming HRT should have a class or therapy requirement for how to handle their now very aggressive and high volume of feelings as well as a DV class. Did they forget what their 20-something T-levels were like?

#SnowTeam The snow has started! No good pictures, yet, though!

In the 6 years of #MultipleMyeloma, one(+) of many cancer/support meds discolored my skin. Today, I tried dermaplaning. My face feels extra naked. Probably not my best idea, but I'm tired of the discoloration. And, this is a changeable bit of damage. The dysphoria of cancer body changes is too real.

Another adventure in ordering groceries. This was using a discount app. My $5 "veggie box" that showed two 5lb bags of potatoes - turned into 4 bags for 20 lbs of potatoes...

When you don't trust grocery delivery inventory - you end up with 4 different packets of stuffing croutons... Good thing we like stuffing!
