I was gonna do a thing today, but I don't think I'm gonna have the spoons πππ I got up unreasonably early for a Sunday, especially with an hour subtracted, so now it's naptime.

I was out doing things today when I checked bsky out of habit and saw this had posted, and for a brief moment the rot seized my brain and said, "you have to go home and read it right now". I didn't, but I'm finally home now... π
Except it seems to get temporary amnesia for a split second when I sneeze too hard π€£
Ah, but it's cheaper for the TAXPAYERS, not the rich developers who can't price gouge the city as badly as they can individual people/families who are desperate to not be homeless!
I've tried bc I'm lazy, but my sphincter is like, no we're not supposed to release unless we're sitting or squatting. Remember? From potty training 37 years ago? Yeah we're not gonna do that.
They should invent a tummy that doesn't hurt

"There is a natural way to be (thin & cis), and if you're not, it must be bc society FORCED you"
Meanwhile society is literally constantly punishing people who aren't thin and cis, the call is coming from inside the house, etc.
Gimme an address, I just want to talk πͺ
For real, this is how my mom gave me and eating disorder and body dysmorphia, by talking shit about her own body, which I always saw as beautiful, bc she was fat. INTERNALIZED FATPHOBIA DOES NOT JUST HURT THE PERSON WITH IT, IT HURTS EVERYONE!!!
Btw, if you have never heard of Mary Chapin Carpenter, I consider "He Thinks He'll Keep Her" a feminist anthem.
Honestly, now that I think of it, "I Feel Lucky" is too. I mean, how many women implied in song that they were fantasizing about a threesome with 2 men in the early 90s??
This is a wild but delightful combination of an artist I was listening to before I could read chapter books and an artist I started listening to last year in my late 30s??? WILD. What even is time.
@OMGImAutisticAF βWhy do you need a label?β Bc there is comfort in knowing you are a normal zebra, not a strange horse. Bc you canβt find community w other zebras if you donβt know you belong. And bc it is impossible for a zebra to be happy or healthy spending its life feeling like a failed horse

Thank YOU!!!! π
I cannot wait to hang @mermaidinn.bsky.social's Hang In There kitty!Ed & puppy!Stede prints in my home office (i.e. living room)!!
And pin @jkmakes.bsky.social's Nonbinary Bisexual pin on my purple denim jacket, next to my "Fat Enbies Exist" pin from Glad Day!!
I have bought the two Buy Now items that I Require, and that's it (until Monday at least, plus some shipping $)!!!
Yeah, I also remember when we went to MA you forgot to get your meds at home and couldn't get them there bc it was a NY Rx.
The number of people who just accept this shit bc they're not disabled is truly insane and fucks the rest of us.

"Fun" fact! In the US, judicial precedent (cf. Castle Rock v. Gonzales) is that police are not responsible for preventing crime, including murder, that is clearly imminent! They don't legally have to help you until you (or your children) are dead!
I hope Australia doesn't follow suit.
J. Rolf Haltza O @RolfHaltza It's wild how we absolve the 9-to-5 of all guilt. The damage is systematically rebranded as your personal failing. Got fat? It's not that jobs require 10 hours at a desk, it's your "sedentary lifestyle". Ruined eyes? It's not the workflow, it's your "screen time". Feel empty? It's not the grind, it's just "adulthood". The job causes the problem, but you take the blame. The 9-to-5 is treated as some unchangeable default of nature we all must bow to.
This is why you should never say the words self care to me. The rage I feel lol.
background is the ocean so what are your likes and dislikes? Me: I like to sleep. I dislike being awake. My hobbies include sleeping, thinking about sleeping, and falling asleep when I'm supposed to be awake. mybodyistryingtokillme.com
Tbf I'd have various bones to pick with them too, such as, "Why weren't you nicer to my grandma?" and, "Why weren't you nicer to literally everyone?" for a start.
I don't know the job titles of either, but I know one worked at the regional gas & electric co. and had a probably-not-legit side hustle fixing and selling used cars, and the other worked for the town he lived in. Both veterans, in WWII and Korea respectively. They'd hate my socialist ass now, lmao

Me: The last chapter of Sapphires ended on a sex scene, I should be good to keep reading for a bit without it getting too horny, since I just wanna read lil bits on breaks between work.
Sapphires: "[Stede] makes his way to the library..."
Me: OH FUCK *closes browser in anticipatory panic*
My birb in Finch dislikes Adventure Time, how can I disown him?
We read that in 8th grade history class, and it stuck with me. I think my teacher was a secret socialist, or at the very least liberal, in a conservative district. He was so excited to teach about AFL-CIO! That was also the year I put together that McCarthy & co. fully violated the 1st amendment.

Negotiations successful!
Getting myself to do chores is like negotiating with a child, except going to bed is the ultimate prize.
I can take a nap now, but I HAVE TO get up and wash dishes and cook chili before I can eat the chili and go to bed for the night. I'm setting an alarm for the nap: I get ONE sleep cycle.
Lmaooooooo god bless Clare tbh
