Last night was a lot. I'm holding my breath that tonight the universe will throw me a freakin bone here. Guys, check in on your people, because it's just a lot right now.

I'm tired. The emotional kind, not the physical kind.

... when it rains, it pours. Y'all be good out there.

TOMORROW!!! #NoKingsDay 🇺🇸

TMI, but, google 'Disney Rash'. That's what my shins look like after last night's marathon of chaos... without ANY Disney fun AND while wearing my standard compression socks. Blah. I'm gonna crawl into bed now and cry about it.

Well, one thing is certain, I'll be sleeping good during the day today because tonight has already kicked my ass.

An addendum thread—someone asked, quite sensibly, if we have ivermectin now, are they still as big a deal? I go into some detail about why they are. Err…buy my book?

Back on shift tonight. It's been a fun 3 weeks off. I just gotta get some sleep now. Curling up with a new book til my kindle hits my face.

#foodsky ugly calzones for supper.

#foodsky Made a pan of pretty ugly calzones for supper. They are baking now... we'll see if they are photo-worthy after baking. 😂 at least they'll taste good!

We were going to spend, like, 2 hrs at the pool... We spent 7hrs there. I'm a little bit tomato-like. It's fine. Not used to daylight after being in that nighshift life. Back to work on weds night, which means I'm gonna day sleep the next 3 days. At least it's supposed to rain. 💙

#booksky 💙📚 Quick read. The MC has multiple struggles, all from his desire to find something to occupy the time TV filled. He adopts a free lovebird and chaos begins. A wild ride of self-destruction. Thank-you, Victory Editing NetGalley Co-Op, for this complimentary copy. Opinions are my own.

I did sign back into #Postcrossing and #PostFun to get into mailing off some postcards around the world again. Surprisingly, Russia can now receive postcards from the US again... I couldn't send any there last time I did postfun... like, it was blocked. 🤷‍♀️

This, uhm, HYPERFOCUS on reading is sure something. I'll get back to knitting probably by Fall. I dunno. Life is weird. If the orange felon would just get that big beautiful bloodclot I'd probably have to dive into escapism less. The every day a new shitshow is f*cking exhausting.

LOOK AT HER FROGS!!!!

#booksky 💙📚 5⭐️ excellent short story as commentary on the state of seeking healthcare in the USA. Full review in alt-text on image. @clashbooks.bsky.social #HelpICantStopShittingSnakes #NetGalley

#booksky 💙📚 This was a touching little short story to escape into. Some body horror, some vampirism, some friendship in complicated times. Thank-you, Victory Editing NetGalley Co-Op and Claudia Doucet, for this complimentary copy. Opinions are entirely my own. #GraveNeighbors #NetGalley

#booksky 💙📚 5⭐️ This short story tugs at the feelings of being included yet seperate from a group and longing to belong. Absolutely a beautiful little novella for anyone who has had to transition to finding a new friend and all the worries, apprehension, fear, and uncertainty that follows that.

#booksky 4⭐️ This is a quick read with a nice focus on herbal remedies/herbal use and deities within celtic folklore. I also appreciated the included artwork in this book.

Ok, back on vacation, (my 3 days at my PRN job are completed), so, off til next wednesday night. READING TIME! And naps. So many naps.💙📚😴

Why does a president need immunity from committing TAX FRAUD unless he is and has been committing tax fraud?

#foodsky Nanaimo Bars. *chef's kiss* The. Perfect. Comfort. Food.

Ok, after a terrible, horrible, no good, very bad work morning and by request of my tech at my PRN job, I am making Nanaimo Bars for tomorrow. "If you are moved to, please, PLEASE, make anything chocolate for tomorrow... but specifically those layered bars I don't remember the name of." 😂

If you are in GA, fill your gas tank before 11:59pm TONIGHT. The gas tax pause expires then and gas will jump between 33.3 and 37.3 cents/gallon. F*cking yikes.

Ooo nap time. Love a good nap. Y'all, nap when you can. Naps are just lovely. (Or go read, reading is lovely too) Basically, the things that are opposite of capitalism...Those other things are lovely. More of those things, please.
