happy international women's day
For the next few days, I will conveniently be declaring myself Birthday Gumbus whenever it suits my fancy.
lobotomize me for the bit
Not a criticism on anyone else. Reflection on how images are used in more formal circumstances than personal social media. When do we consider it profit on someone's image and exposure people didnt ask for. Etc etc etc.
Sudden crisis about taking photos in a public type setting when people have not given enthusiastic consent to participate because I'm a jerk about being in the background of other people's photography in certain settings. I'm pro privacy in general. Hmm.
I had no idea they were doing this but it is illegal to make me sad. They'll probably announce it Monday but it is in effect now so please be mindful.
Resting bitch face?
Nah.
Restless bitchface.
I finally got to go to the rag market and pick through the per pound secondhand. The market is open to the public with paid admission so it wasn't technically that cheap but I've always wanted to hit it up. Scored a few things for upcycling and a couple things that might be for me. Cool experience!
uhhh it’s not like this usually
I, a perpetually late running person, arrived 40 minutes early which is definitely a sign that I'm anxious.
I'm going to do something this morning that I've wanted to do for, like, 15 years and I'm so excited but new environments make me nervous so I'm also a little on edge.
I refuse to let my villain origin story be seeing a feminist thought leader be cheated on by her husband and then coerced into reframing it into polyamoury but it certainly will not be part of my feminism. No shift in a relationship I'm 50% of happens without honesty and good faith discussion.

80 minutes.
I need ranch dressing but I don't wanna go out in the rain. How many minutes/hours will it take to muster up the motivation to make it happen? My prediction is 75 minutes.
The benefit of being an independent artist is having room to have an existential crisis without the obligation to produce on a deadline. Sponsors won't give you 22 years of blowing it up and starting again until it feels right.
Tell me why I CAN'T get a timed cat feeder and fill it with trail mix so I'm reminded to eat something before my body starts shutting down from being too distracted to feed myself.
The news is a nightmare most days but sometimes you come across something extra horrifying and you cannot escape feeling like garbage now that you're aware.
It has come to my attention that Mrs JohnJohn was physically combative and if I knew that detail I wouldn't have been flippant about the fights. Yelling is horrible, hitting is fucked up.
Showing the sitting mayor of Canada’s third largest city a printout of an offensive AI slop image to confirm whether that’s the image he saw that led him to accuse a councillor of a crime, is possibly the weirdest thing I’ve ever done at work. And I once wrote about a merkin art exhibit.
Generally, being visually bland with a shining personality is the balance the public wants. My magnetism with good eye makeup and cute accessories is received as cloying. Which is fine because that's less work for me but sometimes I wanna wear a giant scarf so tough luck for y'all.
I forgot I was cosplaying as a pretty lil lady today when I politely told an impatient guy on the crowded bus to slow his roll and he looked like he wanted to punch me in the face. Looking gender ambiguous as an old cis woman is the invisibility cloak I've grown accustomed to.
A person is surrounded by stars. Text reads: "I'm so lucky and beautiful btw".
I have a very high luck stat.
Security footage of me at the gym is just my very animated facial expressions as I watch reality TV on my phone while parked on the recumbent elliptical. Canada's Worst Driver has my jaw on the floor these days.
Report for someone hiring a better private eye: Target somewhat mouthy when challenged. Low tolerance for error. Doesn't take regular pride in her appearance. Struggles to stay organized. Attention limited. Inconsistent social capacity. Hypervigilant. Easily angered by injustice. Offensively casual.
Report for someone trying to get dirt on me by hiring a private eye: Target talks to everyone who engages with her as if they're long time friends. Tips well. Gives compliments to strangers. Smiles at dogs. Thanks everyone for everything. Holds open doors. Minds her business unless harm involved.
