I’ve never been so happy for dog poop as I am today. After getting attacked by a Pit Bull last Wednesday my Coon Hound Lucy finally pooped for the first time since the incident this morning! 💩 💩 ❤️ 💩

Please remember to check in your elderly friends and relatives, especially those who live alone on a frequent basis.

Totally falling more in love with my boyfriend while being physically incapacitated by lower back pain. He’s so sweet, and I’m clearly bull headed.

If Disney puts the hateful wench Gina Carano into their productions after she had insulted and denigrated so many employees they’re contributing to a hostile workplace environment and I sure as shit won’t watch anything that enriches this hateful shrew of a woman.

Reminder: Gina Carano is trash because she insults others based on who they are as people, then conflates consequences for her ACTIONS with persecution of others for their Identity while simultaneously demeaning others for theirs. In all of this she was the only one who chose to be a nasty cnut.

Nintendo should pay for all electronic and plastic recycling costs for the Switch 2 if they want to charge their customers up the butt and reserve the right to remotely disable devices. When I rent the landlord handles waste. Honestly I hope it launches as well as the Sega Dreamcast.

Every once in a while I get a cold call from Comcast with an offer and I have to remind them I dropped them for violating my prior contract by illegally throttling service for which they have never compensated me so I will not use them so long as there is any other choice. Thank you Lightcurve

April and May roll around and all of the office workers are like, “I’m feeling sniffles, it MUST be the HVAC filters”… No dear, it’s allergies. Look outside at all of the springtime happening… we’ll gladly test your air but we can’t fix your allergies.

On the rare occasion I agree with Rand Paul I tend to agree wholeheartedly.

I would like to thank Sundar Pichai and his choice to kiss the brown ring for my rediscovering Duck Duck Go, Mapquest Maps, Tom Tom AmiGO, and HERE WeGo. I’m pretty sure I’ll drop my YouTube subscription in favor of Curiosity Stream and Nebula. I’ll miss a few creators while I wait out the idiocy

Bing, unlike Google doesn’t change my Gulf of Mexico search to “Gulf of America”. Apple Maps doesn’t kiss the brown ring on this subject either. Considering dropping my google subscription in favor of Apple Music.

Confession: I’ve never read a Star Trek novel.

Confession: My favorite Star Trek novel is Red Shirts by John Scalzi. It’s technically Star Trek adjacent. If you’re a Trek fan it’s worth the read and as an added bonus the audiobook is read by Wil Wheaton.

This is not a paid review.

Somehow I lost my old account and can’t manage the password reset (apparently I’m turning into my father) so I’m back with a new account (& the password is in my phone). I was holding out on doing this but I hear people finally dumped Twitter and now Facebook is ending fact checking so here I am.
