meth labs but make it cottagecore

homesteading tradwives are going to branch out into meth production next

This reminded me that I totally forgot to back Glenn's latest project when it launched 😱

I have obviously corrected my error.

America is recommitting itself to fossil fuel vehicles, meanwhile Chinese cars will soon be able to recharge in the same time it takes to fill up at a gas station

I did not write a paragraph about how The Notebook is not a romance because romances MUST end with a happily ever after (or at least a happy for now).

Please clap.

some days just feel heavier than others

Obama is the only president to date born when there were 50 states

#SirSqueakertonTheFirst enjoys laying on damp fabric (E.g. just-used towels, knitted things I'm drying) and I cannot understand the appeal.

It’s actually FEWER Misérables

Literally sitting in the City Council hearing about eviction prevention paying rents while I’m waiting to speak. If you want to help keep 11 immigrant families in public housing from being imminently evicted, I’m trying to raise $2500 for them 💛

Part of the reason I've struggled for so long with reading my RSS feed is that it's populated with tech blogs.

It's not that I don't care about the tech industry anymore—I do, deeply. But I am continually disappointed by the world we have created & the one the oligarchs are foisting upon us.

Nobody is as confident in me as #SirSqueakertonTheFirst, who trusts with his whole heart that I will not step on him when I'm teetering around in the dark at 3:30 in the morning.

J: *does a weird thing*

A: You're so weird!

J: You're weirder!

A: How do you figure?

J: You married me.

A screen shot that reads, "Cats are known for their agility and flexibility, which allows them to squeeze through small openings. But just how small of a gap can a cat fit through? Interestingly, cats can usually fit through any opening that is at least twice their width. "So, if your cat is 10 inches wide, they could potentially squeeze through an opening that is 20 inches wide. Of course, this varies depending on the size and build of the individual cat. Some cats may be able to squeeze through smaller gaps, while others may need a slightly larger opening."

J suspects that this article was produced with AI.

I wonder why?

There is no marketing I'm more susceptible to these days than any company saying they don't use generative AI in their projects. I'm a sitting duck for that promise even if they're selling graham crackers or masking tape.

What if my body decided to be operational instead of constantly breaking?

It's like I'm driving down a quiet, flat residential street and every once in a while glance in the mirror to see part of my bumper laying in the road for no reason.

And it also minimizes the challenges of living with these conditions and increases the stigma surrounding them.

It's so frustrating.

It would be hilarious* if the thing that gets the AI bubble to burst is the "Department of War"

*in a black comedy kind of way

guess what's stuck in my head again?

yup, that's me, holding my phone in my right hand while using my left hand to frantically search my pockets for my phone

Hey Tāmaki Makaurau Auckland folks, wondering if I could solicit some ideas?

I’m apartment hunting at the moment, and I’m having to discount a lot of nice wee places in my limited budget as there’s no parking for my motorcycle.

I don’t mean a dedicated carpark, no parking in the building at all.

"I'm kind of OCD about keeping up with my planner."

No, you're not! OCD is a debilitating condition.

You're fastidious. Meticulous. Careful. Regimented, even. You're not "a little OCD."

Today is a good day to follow and support publications that aren't owned and controlled by billionaires:

MAKE AN EMERGENCY DONATION to Trans Continental Pipeline right now.

They are a Colorado based org that helps trans people relocate there and they are overwhelmed with requests. CO borders KS, and TCP has the infrastructure to help get people out.

GO DONATE.

Yes, Dan is a friend.

He's also one of my favorite authors. I'm so excited to read this!

A stack of thin pink books that say OBSTETRIX * Naomi Kritzer on the spine.

HEY, I AM DOING ANOTHER FUNDRAISER FOR MINNESOTA RENT FUNDS! AND GIVING AWAY ANOTHER SIGNED ARC (Advance Review Copy) OF OBSTETRIX!!!

YOU COULD GET TO READ IT EARLY (it doesn't come out until June) AND HELP MINNESOTA FAMILIES STAY HOUSED!!!!

It's definitely both!

The shower head in the main bathroom was broken, so we had to get a new fixture. We decided to be fancy and get a rainfall shower head. That + on-demand heated water + shower bench = I live in the shower now.

Just a #RavenBaby and me, hanging out in the bathroom all day.

I know I buy far too many books but I like to think that lining the walls of my house with them wards off evil in some deeply important way.

Note from my notebook (2016). Nothing has changed.

Here is @aoc.bsky.social thankfully telling everyone exactly what to do to stop a concentration camp from being built where you live.

Please take it to heart and take action.
