The Global Sumud Flotilla is less than 150 nm from Gaza with food, diapers, formula. Humanitarian aid. And Israel has promised to block it. History shows theyโll intercept. For aid. For trying to keep babies alive. I hate this timeline.

My ovaries said โจabsolutely notโจ today.
PCOS got me in bed, heating pad on max, watching D20, and telling my boss โIโm dying. Logging off now to suffer in silence.โ
Flexibility is everything when your uterus is plotting your downfall. ๐ #PCOS #WorkingWhileWoman
Diego (my youngest) got me into D20 earlier this yearโand I hyperfixated soo hard, watched so many campaigns. But his real plan? Get me ready for Critical Role. And now, with Brennan hosting?? Itโs time. Time to start my Critical Role journey and stay in Diegoโs world and Brennanโs chaos. Letโs go!!
Accidentally replied to a DM while clearing notifications. Hit their profile, panicked, closed the app. Too late. They responded. ๐ฉ
Sent a message like โsorry, wasnโt lurkingโjust checking if you were a bot.โ
Spoiler: they werenโt.
Iโm too awkward for this. Imagine me in real life?? Iโd evaporate. ๐
Itโs been 2 weeks of chaos with 2 team members out on PTO (from a tiny team ๐ฎโ๐จ).
Theyโre back Monday.
Iโve got D20 on like emotional support TV just to survive this final Friday.
The ball is rolling up.

Woke up at 3am to pee and accidentally entered the perimenopause olympics:
โ
brain wonโt shut up
โ
kidneys working overtime
โ
intrusive thoughts on shuffle
โ
clock watching like itโs a game show
gave up by 6 and just showered.
this stage of life is NOT for the weak ๐
Gotta love asking to be added to a zoom to โlearn something newโ and 20 mins in your stomachโs like: Surprise bitch!
Now youโre just sitting there on camera, fake smiling, clenching every muscle, whispering to your body please, weโre so close.
As soon as they said bye. I was gone! ๐๐ฝโโ๏ธ๐ฝ
So, I thought I was safe watching a muted clip while scheduling a postโฆ
But subtitles said: โlol no.โ
Saw ONE line from Game Changer and instantly unraveled.
Screamed. Told Diego. He laughed. I laughed.
So much for avoiding spoilers. ๐ญ๐

I saw Superman, got mad at Lex, got garden-gummied, opened a docโฆ and now Iโve written a satirical book:
How to Be a Billionaire While Abandoning Humanity ๐
Itโs uploaded & pending on Amazon.
Hyperfocus is real. Blog coming soon. ๐
I went to Superman to see what the hate was about, about it being "too woke". Instead, what I was fiction, that mirrors real life.
This one's for the truth-tellers.

Soft reminder: Unlearning is powerful. Undoing the narratives, roles, and systems that were never built for us is a form of loveโespecially for the person you're becoming.
Iโm in my undoing era, and itโs equal parts grief, rage, and freedom. ๐

What did I do? Went to see Superman, sat down to write a quick reflectionโฆ and accidentally started writing a satirical book titled "How to Be a Billionaire While Abandoning Humanity."
Started at 1. Itโs now 9:30. I havenโt blinked since 4. ๐
Came home from Superman and couldnโt stop thinking. Had to write while it was fresh.
D20โs Unsleeping City on in the background, but my heart was locked in on imperialism, propaganda, and how Superman somehow said more than the media ever will.

New on the blog: I was too poor to dream in capitalism.
As a single mama, dreaming felt like a luxury. Rent, food, survivalโthose came first.
If youโve ever felt like you had to trade hope for hustle, this oneโs for you.

Wasnโt planning to see Superman โ apparently it's โtoo woke,โ anti-war, and anti-genocide. So obviously... I have to see it. Will report back. ๐๐ซถ๐
