It is the end of motherfucking September. WHYYYYY is it going to be 86 motherfucking degrees out today? I need to speak to a manager...

I just watched a woman let her dog off the leash so it could go into someone's yard and poop, and then she just put his leash back on and walked away. City life is different

Another lead in cinnamon recall. Please do check your cinnamon brands as lead is nothing to mess around with. Previous tests have found that McCormick's and Penzey's mixed cinnamon looked pretty good in this regard.

For those of you who read today's newsletter, I need to clarify that I was sageing for the jesus stuff far more than the S&M stuff. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Weird. I mean, we've let an airborne virus rip that causes massive neural inflammation resulting in an IQ loss of 2-3 pts with every infection, but that can't be why we're seeing a big jump in cognitive disability in the population.

Hot bitches in your area are seeking oppositional political leadership in this country

Yup. Same.

The black walnut dye made SUCH a great brown on this pashmina scarf! Gonna do a tote bag next.

Got soaked in the rain twice today, and damn if my hair isn't so fabulous right now? Idk

'Hey, I missed the autism press conference yesterday. How did it go?'

I once went to a meeting with Bruce Harrell where he told a room full of small biz owners that none of us had donated to him, so he would listen to us but we shouldn't expect him to do anything. Great choice, Pete 🙄

Aubrey here thinks that Dems are doing a great job and somehow shutting down the govt will make all the fascism go away. Aubrey can't read, folks. (A single tear slides down my cheek. Poor, poor Aubrey)

OMG IT'S FAT BEAR WEEK!!!! AAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!

THIS. I keep trying to post about skincare, but I'm also watching our country turn fascist, and telling you how to avoid the stripping/overproducing oil cycle seems pointless. Gonna have to start writing posts like 'how to have flawless skin in ICE detention' I guess

autistic people deserve a million dollars

There is a black walnut tree in my yard, so today I gathered a bunch of them up to make a dye. Things I learned: 1) the instructions said to be prepared for worms. Chat, I was not prepared. 2) Even though I wore gloves, I have 3 black fingers right now. Need better gloves.

Medical News Today: 'Using metformin within 3 months of infection may reduce long COVID risk' 'A recent study published in Clinical Infectious Diseases explored a possible intervention that could help with the prevention of long COVID.' www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/com...

Gentle reminder: everything is awful so you may as well go ahead and start dressing like a wizard in public.

Sigh. My mother has my number saved wrong in her phone, but instead of fixing it, she claims my carrier is somehow preventing only her calls from going through. She had a medical emergency two days ago and couldn't get me on the phone bc of it. I am not cut out for this.

I think the coolest thing you can do right now is live with integrity and care about the people around you, not just your friends and family but your community. Deny the lie they want you to believe, that taking as much as you can while giving nothing back is the goal.

Weird pundits hating on Bluesky but I'm just over here trying to make the perfect limonana cause I saw someone skeet about it and it looked amazing. (This one needed another lemon, better crushed ice, and a filter step, but it's so good!)

Trans rights are human rights.

Yep, and I grew up in KS!

Gonna be Earnest On The Internet™️ for a moment and say that in a sea of scammy products and corporations hurting your skin for their profit margin, Dr. Jen's Beauty Lab will remain a high-quality, customer-oriented business.

A new study reveals how regulatory T cells in the skin modulate pain—not just immune responses—by releasing enkephalins that act on sensory neurons. The work, led by Scripps Research Assistant Professor Alejandra Mendoza (@thepenkpanther.bsky.social) uncovers a neuromodulatory role for Tregs.

Worth the watch just to hear 'he's trimming that film like a fat, juicy ribeye'

Feeling stressed? Mac is here to help! He says, 'first you lay on the floor on your back. Grab a toy. Start rolling around. Get so into rolling around that you fling your toy across the room. Roll some more. Roll till you're laughing out loud. See? Better!' #corgisky

Check out my friend Taffeta's show, it's awesome every week, but THIS one is about my favorite subject-SCIENCE!

It should be needless to say, but it is perhaps at this moment worth saying, that transgender individuals have the same right as anyone else to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.

honey, what's wrong, you've hardly touched your festive fall gendered butt wipes

RECALL: These OTC antiseptic lotion soaps, external analgesics, antimicrobial foam soaps, and antiseptic cleansers have been recalled due to Burkholderia cepacia contamination. B. cepacia can cause sepsis in immunocompromised ppl. Yes, you read that right, the 1/ www.fda.gov/safety/recal...

Reminder that if you live somewhere where the humidity is regularly below 30%, you should not use products with humectants (compounds that absorb water from the environment) like hyaluronic acid, glycerin, vaseline, sodium PCA, etc in them very often. The low humidity creates a concentration 1/

FYI, the new 'compression creams' are just temporary skin-tightening products. They use film-formers to create a temporary tight feeling on the skin. They are not compressing anything, nor will they have any effect on skin long-term. #themoreyouknow

Autism isn’t “context blindness” but context clarity—refusal to play a rigged game of euphemism and subtext. The deficit lies in NT dependence on obfuscation, not in autistic honesty, vision, or survival. open.substack.com/pub/autside/...

Baked myself a birthday peach pie AND I made homemade ice cream to go with it. Feelin like Ice Cube right now, today was a good day.

It's my birthday, and I'm asking you to please donate to the animal sanctuary that took in Pjörk www.safeplacerescue.org They have made her new home so special (she has her own kiddie pool and mud wallow!) and have been so kind to her. Donate, feel good, AND make my bday-it's win win win!

ICE has just ramped up its presence in the BOSTON area. If you see something -- a raid, cars with masked agents, etc. -- call LUCE right away and record everything you can. Support your neighbors!

If you're protesting ICE in Chicago, let me know at [email protected] if you need free legal training or legal support. If you're arrested protesting ICE, I can represent you pro bono. Email me at [email protected]. As always, I will take as many cases as I can.

Know your rights, Illinois. Stay safe and stay informed.

Another t-shirt for the collection! #fuckICE #butinspanish

All I'm saying is Kansas sweet corn just hits different, ok? I forgot how good it is, now I'm on my 3rd ear.

just something to have on hand in these times

I finally got enough of the kitchen unpacked that I can cook, so I celebrated with a simple roasted salmon with hot honey glaze, steamed broccoli, jasmine rice, and some fresh cucumber lime agua fresca I made. It's so good, and so nice to be able to cook again!

If you see this, post a chef
