Hey California folks, those debit cards we got 4 years ago for “inflation relief” are going to expire in 14 days and millions of you (and me) haven’t spent them! You can’t cash them out at an ATM. I tried. Please share this! If you don’t spend it, the money goes back to the state government.

#OneGoodThing that happened today was that I successfully performed a GRAND CULINARY EXPERIMENT! I did a taste test between air-fried chicken coated in olive oil and coated in soybean oil. Step One: Coat chicken with oil, salt, and pepper. The olive is on the left and the soybean on the right.

Preach it, Reverend!

Instead of asking chatgpt, why not ask a librarian? You'll get real answers and they won't tell you to kill yourself.

#OneGoodThing that happened today was that I found the sample ballots are up at sos.ga.gov. I printed one out so I can research candidates and whoo-boy, I’ve got a lot of work to do.

#OneGoodThings that happened today was finding out this piece of good news: apnews.com/article/hung...

Regret to inform everyone that Peter Magyar beat the world’s smartest illiberal populist in large measure by working incredibly hard for 2 straight years, meaning the rest of us are just going to have to get off our asses and do shit rather than just complaining.

#OneGoodThing that happened today is that I got out of the house and into the High Museum!

#OneGoodThing that happened this morning was that I figured out the jiggery-pokery for making my personal domain my handle on Bluesky! I went back and forth between which domain to use, but settled on the one that matched the handle I was using. I should probably update the domain now.

#OneGoodThing that happened yesterday was that I saw an #MST3K episode I'd never seen before--Ring of Terror. It's just weird enough that I maybe could have watched it straight, but Joel and the bots made it sublimely hilarious.

I know AI psychosis isn't an official DSM diagnosis (yet), but from what we've seen so far, this man is getting way high on his own supply.

Re: the 14th district election here in GA - Just because something would make a great triumphant moment in a movie doesn't mean it's destined to happen. #VOTE!

Hey Georgia friends—if this is your election, get out there & vote!

I give up. And yet I don't. sarashay.com?p=269

Expect nothing. That way, everything will surpass your expectations.

#OneGoodThing that happens today is, well, it's Good Friday isn't it? A blessed day for those who see it as sacred. Happy Friday for those who don't.

#OneGoodThing that happened today was that I got my taxes taken care of for free with a minimum of fuss. Hooray! myfreetaxes.com

It's time to start up the excuse notes again... sheilaoshea.blogspot.com/2026/04/excu...

I am trans and I am visible for those not ready to be seen and those who refuse to see us.

Intersex people are as common as green eyes or red hair, and most intersex people have no clue they're intersex.

Elementary: Columbus discovered America while proving the earth was round! 😀 Middle: Everyone knew the earth was round, Columbus discovered America looking for trade routes High: Columbus never set foot in “America,” where millions of people already lived College: Hoo boy, what a piece of shit

Trump makes more sense when you notice: + If you agree with him you are RIGHT and worthy of praise. + If you disagree with him, you are WRONG and worthy only of contempt. + If you neither agree nor disagree, he will assume you agree with him until proven otherwise, at which point you are WRONG.

The Citizen Kane of social media responses.

Sometimes I wish that _Doctor Who_ would've been a little less accurate in its extrapolation at times...

My dad says that if the US added three more states (and we've got a lot of territories to choose from) the total number of states would be a prime number. Thus we would be truly one nation, indivisible.

#OneGoodThing that happened yesterday was that I did NOT get a job that would have been pretty cool, but also would have put a lot of restraints on how I spend my time.

#OneGoodThing that happened today is that I STOPPED BEING A BLONDE! No shade on anybody who is; it’s just not my thing. I only stayed being one because root refreshing is cheaper than getting the works done.

I never heard of Baroque tuning before, but now I think I want to hear everything played in it. youtube.com/shorts/7e0Qw...

#OneGoodThing that happened yesterday was that I had dinner with my folks while I was over there taking care of a few things. It wasn't the fancy Sunday dinner, but the kind of meal I would have growing up.

#OneGoodThing that happened yesterday was that I got my car back after it had a two-night stay at Pep Boys. (They're a very busy shop and the car had a very complicated problem, so it's not a surprise.) It's nice to know I have a competent, 7-days-a-week place to take my car now.

At what point did the American Dream go from “making a better life for you and your family” to “unlimited pleasure without impediment”?

Yesterday was not the best of days, but #OneGoodThing that did happen is that I got a replacement for my broken lamp without going to Target. (Plus, it’s a really cute lamp.)

Monday Mood

#OneGoodThing that happened yesterday was that I made a Crock Pot's worth of delicious black bean soup and timed it so it was ready just in time for dinner. Turns out I don't hate cooking; I just hate cooking I have to hover over all the time.

If you don't want the paper to be sad, the link to it is in the ALT description. It's a fascinating study and a recommended read.
