Learned very quickly that thigh chafing might be something I had to live with, so that's no surprise. But ball chafing? Now I'm mad! At least I've been familiar with this problem for a long time. Walking many miles a day for years made me aware of most nooks and crannies.

Had fun with the cheap nail effects from hot topic though.

Rarely, our cat gets really distressed and we have to give him a gabapentin. Today was one of those days. It took him 3 hours to decide he was sleepy and that's when he came to me for comfort. I'm going to be trapped all night.

This stroke of genius is the work of @astrafauna.bsky.social. It's been going viral uncredited all across social media. Not cool, folks. Sarah's original post: www.facebook.com/share/p/1Bna....

Castbound's family and neighbors have been displaced by the recent twin earthquakes, and they are trying to stay safe and comfortable. If you can spare anything, please help them navigate this disaster.

Hey so I'm posting something that isn't about politics or my writing. SNAP only covered two weeks of food, not the three it usually does. So while we've got basic staples and about a week of food, we've got three teenagers... So anything that can be spared, would help.

Had an interesting day. Started by our usual coffee and trip to the park. We didn't start our jog, however, as she ordered from "too good to go"and had to travel to get the food. Amma's. Indian. One of our favorites, but at a location we didn't know. $6 for a full tray. Deluxe spicy!

Do. Not. Use. Fucking. Sticker. Mule.

Zohran is launching a direct care access fund for transgender youth in NYC. Happy Pride!

I used to have this sleep thing mastered. I could put myself to sleep with four trancelike words. Why am I so broken now?

Put in a lot of miles this week, as we made good on our promise to do more walking and I jogging. Unfortunately, old foot injuries are making themselves known again. 10 years of walking mile long warehouses did a number on me. Need to find a way to balance this.

I wrote about the Prairieland defendants and the urgency of opposing the extreme sentences handed down on Tuesday. And they likely will not be the last.

Boobs have still not stopped. It's not as dramatic as it might seem, but we're at hourly intervals of growth. Learning to deal with stretch marks and the itchiness of body healing. Still cannot trust the measuring tape or the bras available, and running out of comparisons other than my own wife.

Otakon, Bronycon. Anyone visiting the Baltimore convention center area knew about him.

I think we just watched a person road rage so hard they had to duck into a car wash to cool off. They were definitely using the suicide lane to skip traffic but were unlucky, cause people are actually shopping and merging.

I am seriously scared by all of those things. But this is a valuable perspective, all of those things are broken pieces of this sick society.

I'm really fine about horror, gore, etc. My spouse is not. I have a low tolerance for things like Jackass where people are actually getting hurt. Spouse loves them. Guess what we're seeing on opening day? Yes, I volunteered. She loves theaters, I love the dates.

Beginning to get the impression that Stepmom is not okay with me, on a fundamental level. Standoffish, distant. Other family members giving warnings. Not terribly surprising, earlier this month I almost confronted her about her attitude toward and alternating her children and grandchildren.

Survived the viewing, got to meet up with a lot of people I really care about and though I was incredibly anxious about seeing the family of the deceased again, the only person more awkward than I was the best friend of the (also recently deceased) wife. It was a difficult time for everyone.

Spouse tried another pair of pants, so I got some hip-hugging capris. I got excited when they stayed up around my hips. My excitement was somewhat misplaced though, as my backside is still doing all the work. Maybe it's time to break out the thongs.

It’s about time you showed up, Fox! You’re the only hope for our world! Lets all do our best to protect our world! #StarFox [Coming soon to a local convention too!]

Took a nap and then went out without fixing my hair. Spouse likes my 80's doo for the evening.

Remember how Homelander tried to put everyone who tweeted mean things about him in convention camps? Those sure are fun stories and totally don't happen in real life.

Freedom of speech is dead, if it wasn't already, it certainly is now.

A cartoonist named Daniel "Des" Rolando Sanchez Estrada was tried as a terrorist and sentenced to 30 years in prison for having anti-Trump comics in his car. Prosecutors connected him to a 2025 anti-ICE protest he didn't even attend because he was in the same book club as others who were.

It is frightening and amazing how they got rid of freedom of speech in the US, the “land of the free”, by convincing a large sum of gullible people freedom of speech was something else entirely. Shit needs to be studied for decades.

Andre did my portrait and does really expressive characters, if you have need of one!

Oop! Turns out I'm in sudden desperate need of commissions! Anyone willing to help a goblin out?

You ever fart in front of an air purifier and watch it come to life to clean up after you? You ever just walk by an air purifier that was offended by your very presence?

I'm not here to spoil your fun. I love a good meme. A good chuckle from a joke you wanted to share. But please consider that even with mute lists and a lack of algorithm, low-effort engagement accounts are a scourge on social media that rob us of authentic engagement by drowning voices with spam.

Reapplied for the job that I received the curious decline on. I couldn't tell what was changed, aside from a wage increase. (Maybe less desirable hours?) But I was able to strengthen my application and I'm praying that I am not reading too into the invitation to reapply.

TADC finale is a critical piece of art because it illustrates trans despair in a very grounded and relatable way. It is confusing and messy and complicated like life often is. It also fits very well into the broader themes of depression and mental illness present in the show.

Tried getting a souvenir from the reflecting pool but they have a bunch of guards there now

I still spend a remarkable amount of time asking myself how this is my life. Good things were never supposed to happen to me.

hey those matrix sisters were on to something when they were like, “transmisogyny is everywhere”

Was accused of trying to suffocate a family member in my hair today so I'm going to apologize now for all the times I was oblivious and almost did that to you. Thanks to everyone who was gentle about it and commented on how nice I smell it whatever. :/

Saw a big cluster of geese including a few immature birds. Not long ago it was a swarm of goslings.

Saw TADC finale. Was excellent, very relatable. Spouse hadn't seen any of the show and was shocked at how emotional and "adult" it was. It was heart wrenching to have to say goodbye in that way, all over again. I don't need any more friends to go abstract on me.

As a counter to my running post yesterday, I do worry about a significant loss of flexibility. Some of it is mechanical, more meat on calves and hamstring make it impossible to bend my knee as much. Tying my boots is more strenuous.
