Christmas gift shopping makes me feel 500 years old: "I just don't see how a Barbie doll should ever be more that $20" "Why are half these toy ads fake AI product images? What is the world coming to?" "Was this kids book written by a real person?" "I'm just getting them gift cards. Fuck this."

I'm been neglecting Biscuit's pedicures because he's a big ol baby about it. Today I'm determined to get all the hair off between his pads and coving his nails so I can trim them. Look at the difference between a trimmed paw and an untrimmed one!

Had to run a few errands before work, so I came in about 8:20am. Was told my 9am appointment had already come in and left, but said they'd be back. It's now 9:15 and they aren't here. I have another appointment at 10 and I'm 98% sure they're going to show up again right as that starts if at all.

@amandabw425.bsky.social *after watching the Wake Up Dead Man Trailer*: There are so many attractive men in that cast.
Me: Eh... We have different tastes in men. *Johnathan Bailey appears on screen* Ok. We can definitely agree on SOME things.

Me talking about social media to a group of police academy students: My right to post a bunch of ACAB stuff online is protected, but the school has a right to fire me because it directly conflicts with the needs of our students and my job.
Police student: What's ACAB?
Me: Um... You can Google it.

I made the mistake of sharing my Letterboxd with a student who then saw all the shlocky, b-tier trash I love to watch. Yesterday they mentioned a movie and went, "It's not very good. Tess, you would like it!" FUCKING SAVAGE AND I WILL NEVER RECOVER!

My daughter is 16. That's a sophomore in high school. That's someone who can barely drive. If a 22-year-old EDUCATOR seriously thought she could consent to "engage in an encounter", my response would put me in fucking jail. My heart goes out to this victim.

HR: We need a start date for this employee
Me: You haven't given approval on their hiring yet. I can't set their schedule until they're approved.
HR: We can't approve Until we have an accurate start date.
Me: Ok. how about *date?*
HR after date: That start date was inaccurate.

I hope the community is better now, but this is why I only went to 2 Crypticons in my life before bowing out. Edgelord horror fans were insufferable.
