In the last 2 hours, I have: -Mowed the front lawn -Hung up a retractable extension cord in the garage -Re-routed the heavy duty extension cord for the car -Raised one of our gates by 1” and replaced the latch … and I’m legit looking forward to cleaning the garage later. Take that, ADHD. Huzzah!

Anyway, I still need $105 for my car insurance and $209 to keep my car loan from delinquency. I can do WordPress tech support. I can send NSFW photos. I can write your info down & return $ later. Every dollar helps. 🙏 #mutualaid cash.app/$CallMeZoe paypal.me/CallMeZoe venmo.com/code?user_id...

If you’re trans, you have to live.

I'd like to point out that @maegodhavemercy.com clearly predicted AI-slop music way back in 2011.

Just ‘cause photos are fun - here’s the end of the fried power strip. Safety first, kiddos!

We got it paid!! Thank you so much to everyone - we’ve been on the edge of things for so long, but every little victory gives me a sense of relief that, while short-lived, is AMAZING. Thank you thank you thank you!

That was fun - went to plug in the car and noticed it wasn’t getting any power. Checked the breaker panel and saw that it had tripped, so I flipped it back she as I was walking past the garage, I heard a “ffFFUMP!” Checked the garage to find a CLOUD of forbidden blue smoke. 😳

Damn it - I feel like I’m having to do this constantly, but I don’t know what else to do. I need to get our water bill paid by tomorrow or they’ll shut us off, and Liz doesn’t get paid until Thursday. Any help is huge. PayPal.me/MaeGodHaveMercy Cash.app/$MaeGodHaveMercy Venmo.com/u/MaeGodHaveMercy

For Fuck’s Sake. I’m not catholic, so it’s probably not a BIG deal that I missed this, but I only just now found out that the prayer starts off as “Hail, Mary, full of Grace…” That is SO DUMB, Andy Weir. I love it. But it’s SO dumb. :D

Thankfully I was able to get the dishwasher running again - took off the control panel, had a look at the control board and cleaned the contacts, and it powered up normally. But I’ll tell you what - there was QUITE a bit of moisture in that compartment, where there are unshielded cord harnesses.

The corollary to the rule of “never buy a Samsung refrigerator” is “never buy ANY Samsung appliance. Our dishwasher apparently gets moisture into the control panel when it does the “open door to vent the steam” thing, and it causes corrosion on some of the contacts. BECAUSE SAMSUNG.

I love Banana Ball so much, I swear to god. Regular AAA ball and MLB are fine (honestly AAA is more fun in person), but Banana Ball might be the most enjoyable form of baseball out there.

I swear to god, it’s sticking with me. It’s stayed in my thoughts all night and into the morning. I was similarly obsessed after reading it a while ago, and the movie just intensified that. 👎👎🪨

Project Hail Mary is PERFECT. Absolutely, stunningly perfect. If you’re on the fence about seeing it for any reason, GO. SEE. Amaze amaze amaze!

I kinda can’t get over that I can make myself a list of things I want to get done the next day, and actually be relatively confident that when the next day comes, I’m actually going to accomplish those goals. To do lists have always been wishlists. I can’t believe how excited I am to do WORK.

Y’all, I ABSOLUTELY cannot thank you enough!! We were able to get a payment in, and we’re that much closer to being current with our rent. You are the most amazing people in the world, and I wish I could express just how much your help means to me.

We’re at $1,175/$1,500 - thank you all so much for your help!

We’re at $900/$1500 - I cannot tell you how much all of your help means to us, because getting the back rent paid back (at the rate our landlord is demanding) has been proving to be impossible without help from you all. Thank you so much. ❤️

*sigh* I hate to be back here again, but our landlord is harassing us again about our rent, and I need to get him a payment tomorrow or he’s likely going to give us notice. Any help is deeply appreciated. ❤️ PayPal.me/MaeGodHaveMercy Cash.app/$MaeGodHaveMercy Venmo.com/u/MaeGodHaveMercy

Mae writes bunch of comics that I read in high school that taught me about being joyfully, enthusiastically, authentic. I'm almost at a point where I can pay her back from that, but until then she could use a hand.

Hot damn! One of Liz’ coworkers got us tickets to see Project Hail Mary on Thursday! I loved the book SO MUCH, and it’s looking more and more like the movie is going to be a faithful adaptation. Amaze!

In the last two weeks, since getting my ADHD meds back, I have been more productive and motivated to actually do things around the house than I have in YEARS. And honestly? It absolutely pisses me off. I HAD this at one point a number of years ago, and it was taken from me.

That’s a little more like it. :) (We went with the second from the left.)

Pant color decision time. :D Gotta wait for these to dry but then we can make a much more informed decision. (We liked the color we originally picked on the swatch, even in the room, but once it was on the walls it turned into kind of a crazy green we didn’t dig, so… once more unto the breach.)

Painting… *gasp* … a room… *wheeze* … is fucking exhausting. 🥵

$289 / $500 - thank you to everyone who has helped so far. I cannot tell you how much it means to me. (Also - keep your fingers crossed for me - they’re supposed to be calling references either today or Monday for the job i interviewed for, so here’s hoping mine are on that list!)

Hi folks - we still need some help, unfortunately. We got our phone bill paid in time but our landlord is asking for $500 more this week to keep us on a repayment track and isn’t willing to budge. Any help is HUGE. ❤️ PayPal.me/MaeGodHaveMercy Cash.app/$MaeGodHaveMercy Venmo.com/u/MaeGodHaveMercy

hey loves. we're short on rent this month and we still have bills to pay! i have work coming in, but it's not here yet and after our vet bills this month we're so behind. we could use some help! venmo magdalene-visaggio thank you 🙏

I ADORED Firefly at the time. I could not want this less.

I’m so happy! I thought the board on my Warp Core lamp had died, because one day it just stopped working, but it turns out it was actually the USB port on the power strip that went out. It’s been sitting dark for months, and now she’s back!

I’ve been largely enjoying Starfleet Academy, but we watched last week’s episode last night, and it had Liz in tears by the end of it. It really was a fabulous episode of television.

How I arrived on Bluesky:

Liz just forwarded me a post that there is a MAGA republican incumbent running unopposed for Board of Supervisors in our area, and even though the ability to register by Friday isn’t realistic (considering the filing fees and such), I was still intrigued…. But I live JUUUUST outside the district. 😖

“I just nailed an interview” selfie! I felt like a million bucks today. I had this top, some high-waisted wide-leg slacks, heeled boots and a grey blazer. I looked FIRE today, and felt like a goddamned professional. Which is kinda funny since it’s essentially a blue-collar job, but heck yeah.

Well that interview, I think, went about as well as it possibly could have. I have the skills needed, I had GREAT answers to the questions, and I asked some really good questions of my own. I know there’s no way to know for sure, but I’m already in the top 50 out of 300 applicants, so I feel good.

Okay everyone - at 8:40 this morning, I want everyone sending me the BEST VIBES. I’ve got a fairly big deal job interview today, and I need all the help from the universe I can get. 🤞

Hey all - I’m scrambling to try and get our phone bill paid before they shut us off, and our direct deposit hasn’t hit. If you can help out, it would mean the world to us. PayPal.me/MaeGodHaveMercy Cash.app/$MaeGodHaveMercy Venmo.com/u/MaeGodHaveMercy

Hoooooly heck. I finally just got a new psychiatrist, and I’m getting back on my ADHD meds! It’s been THREE GODDAMN YEARS.

One of the comments on this described this book as “therapy”, and having just finished it, I CANNOT agree more. I absolutely 100% needed this from Butcher. So, SO much of this was absolutely beautiful. If I never got any more Dresden Files, I’d be at peace with this (though… y’know… MOAR PLEASE)

This trailer won’t mean anything to you if you haven’t watched the previous seasons (YOU SHOULD), but if you have? Buckle your safety harness and prepare for liftoff, y’all.

Never trust a fart. They’re full of shit.

Fuuuuuuuuck. I just started listening to “Twelve Months”, and as it began I realized I had forgotten just how gut-wrenching the events of “Battle Ground” were. And Jesus, it’s been SIX YEARS.
