So, if you go to the Nordstrom Bistro at Easton, they'll let you order off the kid's menu, which has some totally different options than the main menu. Smaller portions, lower price. I love it 😁

Went to the trouble of shaving my legs and my armpits this morning, so I hope y'all enjoy the yield of my labor. ☺️☺️

Yooo the weekend beacons! What cool stuff are y'all looking forward to? I'm psyched bc I have my kids this weekend—Looking forward to hanging out with them and watching the Seahawks together on Sunday 😊

Happy Thursday from the hamster wheel! 😊

Per @506sports.bsky.social, Seahawks v Rams will be on over-the-air local TV here in Columbus. No YouTubeTV latency for Mona this week! 😁😎 #GoHawks 💙💚🩶🏈

Word. Care about stuff. Be excited about stuff. Be a nerd about the things you love that bring you joy. Be cringe.
Take photos of aurora if you can. Share as many as you want. Let the magical lights fill you with joy. Let sharing a communal experience bring you delight.

Life’s too short to be a hipster if it’s preventing you from joy and connection. And seeing the full extent of magical sky lights!

I'm with @davidlsims.bsky.social on this flick. Fun and cute! I really dug it, though it felt a bit like its edges were sanded down to get that PG-13 rating.

A ★★★ review of Predator: Badlands (2025)
Three stars probably makes it seem as if I was "meh" on this movie, but I really enjoyed it! This was a fun throwback to the kind of weird sci-fi action programmers studios would just churn out regula...

Movie night! Have heard really good things about the new Predator flick! 🍿🍿🍿

Glad I stumbled upon this! I made a distinction between my own gender identity/relationship with gender and the ways I present/how I intend/hope to be "read" by others. Also put the clean copy here too. #nonbinary #femby #transfem #agender #amabnonbinary #trans

Putting these photos from yesterday together like this makes it look like these are headshots... For my 46D knockers! Hey-o! Just bc I don't put the goods on display everyday doesn't mean we're out of stock. All glory to my close personal friends Estradiol & Progesterone.🤩😍🤪🏳️‍⚧️

Good news: Tickets to the Seahawks game in Nashville on Nov. 23 are as cheap as $25!

Bad news: Flights to Nashville cost at least $600.

Womp womp.

OTD in 2022. I'm so fucking weird. 😂
November 12, 2025 at 3:02 PM
OTD in 2006—My brother James and I got to watch the Seahawks beat the St. Louis Rams in dramatic fashion, 24-22, keyed by a 91-yard 4th quarter punt return TD by Nate Burleson. We got soaked to the bone but it was worth it! 💙💚🏈

(Yes, I'm wearing a Deion Branch jersey I bought in a fit of optimism)

Well, I think I found the main photo I'll be using on any/all dating apps for a while 😁🤪😁

Yoooo I'm messing around with a new lighting set up at my apartment bc I'm the vainest non-binary bitch alive 😂😁🤪💄🏳️‍⚧️

OK, Seahawks - Rams. I hate-respect LAR. McVay has had our number the ENTIRE time he's been L.A.'s coach, so it seems fitting that we need to beat his squad to ascend. This game is important, but not IMPORTANT. Very possible we play 3 times this year, like in 2020. I just wanna win that 3rd game.

11/11/06 (age 31) vs 11/11/25 (age 50). I've grown more comfy in my non-binary-ness... But facial hair is still a hard no. Waiting until my January appt to re-blue my hair is getting harder. I've gotten more aggressive about shaving my legs & armpits. So much gender stuff entangled w/hair for me.
November 11, 2025 at 5:42 PM
This feels like a dumb question, but... I have this pair of Eddie Bauer hiking shoes that are just squeaky as fuck? Like, at a distracting volume. Is there anything I can do about this?
November 11, 2025 at 5:11 PM
Given that Rams at Seahawks is on TNF wk 16, I'd imagine that would make the league hesitate to put Seattle in primetime twice in 5 days? But who's to say?

(Also, I structured my holiday trip home to Washington state from Columbus so I could go to both the Colts and Rams games. Psyched for that!)
Thought: Bills at Patriots, Colts at Seahawks, Chargers at Chiefs and Lions at Rams all Week 15. Flex alert. Sunday night is currently Vikings-Cowboys. Monday night is currently Dolphins-Steelers. Would the NFL move the Cowboys or Steelers out of prime time for a better game?

So far this year, I've seen 20 new movies (films released in 2025), but I've gone to see a movie in the theater 49 (!) times. Some new movies over and over (SINNERS, Mickey 17, etc), some 2024 releases (Nosferatu, etc), lots of old movies (Thief, etc).

49 trips to DAH MOOVEESSH in 46 weeks.

Here is my hot 007/James Bond take: Abandon continuity completely. Every movie, new Bond, new director, and it can be a period piece, it can be contemporary, it can be in the future, Bond could be a xenomorph, who gives a fuck? Make it a showcase for auteur directors and young up-and-coming stars.

Might have an unexpected window to see a movie after work today. The viable choices are

Predator: Badlands
Die My Love
Bugonia
It Was Just an Accident

Leaning toward seeing the new Predator flick bc it sounds lilke the most fun?
November 11, 2025 at 2:43 PM
Oooof the buzz for Edgar Wright's The Running Man has been pretty toxic since the review embargo got lifted. Might go ahead and cancel that reservation I have for Thursday night (Thank the Lord for AMC Stubs A-List, right?), go see something else instead...

(I'm obsessed with this SPECIFIC product from Bath & Body Works and am constantly at like Defcon 2 that they'll discontinue it and I'll need to hoard the remaining stock.)
