There is a part of me that is like "what if I only pack a tote bag"

My next planned trip is not until the end of August but I am already thinking about what to pack for it

One of the things I think about more often than I'd like to is what I would do if the synagogue down the block from me is ever targeted. I would like to never have to think about this at all, but here we are 🙃

Bunch of people showed up during the trailers, including the couple who sat Right In Front Of Me. I ended up moving over a seat so I didn't accidentally kick one of them in the head 🙄

Going to a movie on a whim today (The Christophers). So far it's just me and an elderly lady in this theater. Movie starts in about 20 min so we'll see if anyone else shows up

Netflix switched to the dubbed version of the show I'm watching and I can't switch it back????? 😩😩😩

what I should do with my rainy night in: work on that middle section of the timer AU fic what I am actually doing with my rainy night in: writing the tumblr fallout of the sudden deletion of ilyarozanov81's account

I desperately want the social media fic that is snapshots of Ilya's socmed throughout the years: the Russian livejournal, the private snapchats to Shane, the summer of 2016 when he had a tumblr and all the RPFers tried their best to be cool about it only for him to suddenly nuke it in October.....

they are more married than hollanov

I don't want to work, I want to finish the last 30 pages of this book :(

other success today was linking my third library on my kobo and getting it to sync properly

successfully bought pelmeni and yes, tabasco sauce works as a decent substitute for sriracha in a pinch

In theory I'm going to the grocery store but there's a nonzero chance I just don't get off the train and get a hotdog at Coney Island for dinner

Can't stop thinking about the pelmeni I had in Sitka. Might have to go buy pelmeni in bulk about it

whoever decided there's no crying in baseball was a lying liar who lies. I am right now crying because it's increasingly unlikely I can do BOTH the wpbl and Heated Rivalry night in the same weekend because the airlines and amtrak and finances and also time are against me >:(

really need an Ilya fanvid to Punkrocker by the Teddybears feat. Iggy Pop

Waiting on the bus and I know the moment I go inside the McDonald's to buy a drink and fries it will show up :(

Ok I have done like 7k steps today by accident and haven't yet done my grocery shopping but I think I can justify some couch vegetation/finishing the book I'm reading before I go do that

Today's challenge is not taking a nap so I can fall asleep at a reasonable hour for my current time zone instead of the one four hours behind me

I've spent the last two weeks in the pnw and the Alaskan coast and you know what, I did kinda miss my smelly slab of concrete city that is slowly sinking into the ocean

To this day I do not know if he knew who he was reading about, and this question will haunt me until the heat death of the universe

Well this is not the most awkward experience reading a sex scene in a public place where people could see it over my shoulder, but it's certainly up there

Oh no someone on this flight has a sweet kitty who does not sound pleased about the idea of flying

Do I have any Boston area fandom friends who would be willing to put a couple people up for a night or two at the end of August?

Hello it's a glacier

Swinging through on my limited internet time to say I am finally poking at timer au again and had a minor breakthrough \o/

Hello from Alaska!

Is it devestate or is it devastate, I genuinely couldn't tell you without spellcheck

#UnconfinedWalks Day in the city with @theladyscribe.bsky.social 💗 Definitely adding the arboretum to my list of places to bring visitors.

In my heart of hearts, I know that Shane Hollander thinks Taylor Swift and Lady Gaga are the same person. In his defense, Blank Space and John Wayne could be on the same album.

Mine was on Ataturk and the creation of the Turkish Republic. It was not my best work. The paper I'm proudest of was on the elements of Greek tragedy in Nadine Gordimer's The House Gun, written for my post-colonial lit class.

just remembered I made this (7 years ago!!!) and I need to share it with all of you

The Pens are playing terrible hockey but my handsome son Rusty taking down Konecny was hot at least

Oh nooo I got here without The Cottage???????? 😭😭😭😭😭😭

This game is a mess. I think I'm gonna take a shower and go to dinner instead 🙃

Put the whole crew in the box tbh. Let the goalies play it out by shooting the puck back and forth between them

Maybe the Pens will get a shorty

Pens heard me talking shit about their power play I guess 😂

Or I could go back to the hotel and watch the Pens/Flyers game.......

I could find another place to go explore or I could go to a movie 🤔

The school-age babies (I would guess 2nd grade) have shown me up lol

I have brought down the median age in this art gallery by at least 20 years 🤣

Pengos could stand to take notes on the Mammoth power play bc wow they're good

Having Adventures getting from the airport to my hotel but I finished a book on the plane and am halfway through another one already, and I'm debating between Lebanese and Korean for dinner tonight, so we're calling it a win

Red Sox, Red Sox, I appreciate that the countdown to the cottage is also a countdown to my birthday but I will be on a Boat looking at Whales and won't be home where I can put the time off request in immediately, so I hope this doesn't sell out too fast 😭

Realized I have enough space on my new phone that I can download all 6 eps of Heated Rivalry to take with me on my trip

In the stage of packing where I have to decide which shirt will be my travel day shirt and which shirt is one too many 😩

My question to Jacob Tierney: how's it feel to have forced the Buffalo Sabres to break their curse out of sheer spite
