I forgot yesterday and I kept labeling all my wires for today and such for the 5th of November(they need to be dated for today). Sorry Guy Fawkes. Please forgive me. 😭😭😭😭

My friend is making her dreams come true. She is opening an eco friendly local market for people to only pay for what they need. If you are in the area, please go support a local business.

It felt good doing a mega binge of Apothecary Diaries this weekend. Watched 90% of it. Definitely a good watch

My therapist told me about how there are 2 types of isolation: 1 to help and process and the other is to harm. I have been more offline and I am working on me. Just know that I do think of people often. It doesn't change that I have been quiet, but I am working on me. Love you all.

Gotta find a new language app to use since Duolingo decided AI was the way to go.

If anyone here is going to North Coast Music Festival and haven't bought tickets, use code BEAN to save some money.

This fills me with such joy. Here's hoping there are more disappointments for those in the 1%.

I got 99 problems and all of them are pennies my job expects me to reconcile.

So when are we firing up that Hadron Collider again? We need to hop back into some sanity. This reality sucks.

Found out Reader's Digest was called that because it was meant to be read in the bathroom.

The one document that always seems to slip away is the title to the car. I need to invest in a safe so this stops happening.

Truly a great time when the Eldritch cat of Twitch can have his internet down, but still be streaming. This art is amazing.
What happens when my internet goes down partially but I can still stream? Cursed art streams of course.

What do you think? @ariantha.bsky.social

The more stuff I see going on, the more I want to gather cats and live in the woods...or become a bog witch...something like that.

My 2 boys. 1st, we have Johnny. He was purring so softly and sitting like a sir. Then there is Renton... doing who knows what above my head while I am trying to work.

Just a heads up, you are probably following the president on Facebook. I certainly never hit that button. That would be because Zuck thought it would be cute. Of course I unfollowed, left a review and blocked him. Let's see how that goes.

Any teacher who thinks giving their student to ICE is okay; they need to quit being a teacher. I know none of my teachers growing up would ever.

Since we are all gals here, maybe we need to download those period trackers and make sure they know the full spectrum of how cycles work.

Just a reminder that conservatives don't like being called Weird. It bothers them.....remind them what they are when they defend the things they do. They're weird.
