Fully expected sensor failure after the new sensor I started was reading at half what it should be. In my experience if it's off by 30+ mg/dl, it's not coming back. Also I would never calibrate this soon but "urgent low" was driving me up the wall. Apparently there's a first time for everything.

“Verify your age” I had a Livejournal

I just added a bunch of t-shirts to inventory at willburrows.art/shop Size XS-5XL, women's cut, tank tops too!

You are always allowed to buy more of the thing whose depletion forces you to do laundry.

Oh no

Verify your age When I saw Aliens at 9, we also had to rent the VCR. At the time, I didn't know anyone that owned one (because they cost so much).

I quote this multiple times per week.

"Ooh! A bloody, buggery teaspoon. That sounds rather clever. And what did one fill the kettle from? The bloody marvelous tap, I suppose?"

An autistic woman who always figures out how a film is going to end about halfway through has spent several hours choosing the perfect new release to ruin movie night.

Hello Mary Lou: Prom Night II

The place we lived in the U District when I was an undergrad used to be unfindable by anyone not familiar with that street because one of the directions Mapquest gave was "turn right on UNNAMED ROAD." To this day, we still yell that.

We believe women also game.

Dress for the job you want

The audience wants to watch charismatic people solving moderately difficult problems, delivered in weekly doses with occasional short breaks. That was what the market *told us* over seven decades. It created international cultural dominance and enormous wealth. www.wsj.com/business/med...

RIP Mr. Darcy you would have loved voice memos

Not really a theory, but an observation that Barney was diverse right up until they had the kids pair up with dolls to pretend to be their parents.

Working up my scouting report for every male lead in a Hallmark movie.

Watched an entire episode of a show before realizing it's a period piece set in the 90s.

my husband referred to political apologies as Hoobastanking this morning ("you know: i'm not a perfect person...") and i have not stopped giggling about it all day

An English teacher in high school told my parents I was illiterate because I used words she didn't know. Upon learning that they were real, she told me that no one would read my work if I used uncommon word. This was feedback on something I wrote about the assigned text - Hard Times by Dickens.

Finally, bluesky reaches its apotheosis: ONLY alt text

Just said this: "all these people arguing that their personal headcanon of what IRCC means is the truth just reminds me of fandom wars 20 years ago. I'm so tired."

Bluesky's media server already left for the weekend.

Sometimes I wonder if my life would have been different if at any time growing up someone had tried to leverage things I was good at* and not just tried to force me into boxes that didn't fit (like math or trying to memorize statistics, which did not work). * but not for crime

My emotional support goalie got traded again and I don't know how I feel about it. Well, I do miss CapFriendly.

On this point - the whole goal of The Daily Tism is to be like a paid boot camp / hub for autistic comedy types to bypass a lot of the difficult, stressful early industry navigation stuff. It’s also a place for industry veterans to have some cathartic fun. 1/

They start the fireworks so late here. But I guess at least now we're far enough away from the cannons that we don't get blasted by 21 gun salutes anymore (single cannon, takes an incredibly long time).
