I can absolutely guarantee that our healthcare setup massively hinders the entrepreneurial spirit in the US.

TIL that not all unemployment is created equal. WA at gives 1000 ish per week as their max. (If you choose to pay taxes now or later) Wa state social programs save my ass time and time again. It lets me find my feet and be a more productive member of society.

I truly didn’t understand that people assumed me and any guy friends were together. Like, obviously not bc I’m not sitting on his lap. Bc obviously anyone in a relationship maintain physical contact AT ALL TIMES. Apparently not everyone is exactly like me. Weird.

Men say that physical touch is their love language until they meet me final boss style.

Many companies have attempted to use my voice for something. They have all underestimated my awkward weirdness and have scrapped the project.

My latest cookie recipe essentially shoves the frosting INSIDE the cookie. I should not know this is an option. I’ve eaten sooo many cookies.

I love when boys think Sephora buys are super fun and it’s like, nah brah I just spent 300$ on boring ass regular maintenance shit like lotion. LOTION.

NGL one of the things I love about Seattle is our grocery store sushi.

My new favorite restaurant downtown is H Mart.

I love a challenge which is great bc I have to put together a professional, investor appropriate work wardrobe but I absolutely cannot wear anything but very sturdy sneakers.

IM CELEBRATING GET OFF MY DICK

I don’t recommend building up your triceps for years and then abstaining from fitness for a year. Hellloooo flappy wing arms.

Did women ruin the workplace?

What are the in-office gurlies wearing these days? And where do I go? Aiming for cute baggy pants, and maybe sweaters? Idk where to shop outside of thrift but I need something faster.

Signed job paperwork. Immediately signed up for my unlimited yoga and looked at classes for tomorrow.

Apparently my roommate has been hiding a secret account from me all of this time. THE AUDACITY.

Question: has anyone ever shipped food across the state? My grandma is kinda sad she wont be having a full turkey dinner and I wanna ship her one made by people she loves.

I have a feeling Dad might notice the hole in the ceiling when he comes over today. Which will prompt 1000 questions on if I’ve been into the attic and when the appointment is to fix it and idk dad it stopped raining? It’s not oozing water? It’s fiiinnneee (spoiler: it’s not fine)

Things have shifted a bit more into the “oh fuck” category

What’s the nicest way on Hinge to ask: Like what kind of Christian? Like Lutheran or mad about the result of the NYC mayoral race Christian?

Dad’s an electrical engineer and a CFO so I’m getting the housing plans….in excel.

There are no people in my world. It’s just the stupid internet and that’s it. I fucking hate it.

Okay, it might be time to return to yoga. Just suck it up that it’s an expense coming from savings so I don’t die of pain this winter.

Okay sun is setting good night.

In fun house things, there is def an old water heater built into the wall between my kitchen and bathroom? The dimensions indicate 10 missing inches and it lines up with the weird old water heater found under the sink. So my walls might be full of water? Idk I love this shit. So weird.

My library is absolutely banging so I went to this free Korean papercraft class yesterday. I was chatting with this lady about my age and finally learned to take the last step of “Wanna exchange numbers and do something this month?” Which is apparently not that hard? I didn’t die? Or explode?

Blew off the patio AND mowed the lawn before it started raining sooo go me.

Interviewed for the first full time role I was excited about this week. Idk if I’ll get it but it was nice to see something that didn’t feel like 8 roles smoooshed into one.

My aunt (professional psychologist, very good at her job, excellent listener and question asker) asked recently why running was so important. I really struggled to put into words how it’s a reset for my brain, where I can just go and be alone in my body and it’s impossible to describe why I need it

Turns out my dr wasn’t lying to me and people with Osteoarthritis in their knees don’t really get to run again. I will probably look for a dr that will lie to my face and tell me I will run again.

I have to mow the lawn today. This is the worst of all of the chores. Like actually TERRIBLE.

HELLO AND WHY AM I AWAKE

Hot take: Women are absolutely garbage at recognizing a good man in swipe culture. I know us, we need to watch him help his grandma or jump up to help his sister and suddenly he’s stupid hot. Bring back community. I wanna find you hot bc of who you are.

There are like…18 projects I need to finish BEFORE dad comes over so I can pretend I’ve made progress since the last time he was here.

I am so tired of robots and screens. I want humans and emotions.

No joke been thinking of starting a church except there isn’t a religion it’s just a place for people to congregate. Have kids? Great, bring em. Wanna drop in and see if Bobs playing cards again? Come on over. Lonely and just want to read in a corner? Great, we have a place for you too.

I miss twitter. But I also think I just miss community.

I would pay someone money to look over my professional communication shoulder and just assure me my Slack messages are normal and well structured.

I blew off the patio yesterday I LOVE IT. Free pine mulch.

Dad: so I’m available for your next project, what do you wanna work on? Me: Okay so I want my cat to be able to get into my room but not put a hole in the door so I’m thinking of making her a tunnel thru the closet. Dad: Me: What?

I’m a little worried about my routine: can’t sleep until about 4am where I get up, make my breakfast of two eggs and then head back to bed where I can finally sleep. Do…do I have an egg allergy or something?

I don't think we understand just how bad the decline of the Internet is to knowledge. 3 years ago, I could perform a very basic search in any engine and get an absurd number of relevant links, research articles, etc. Today, I can perform the same search and find absolutely nothing.

“Free likes are over for the day” Guess I’ll meet the love of my life some other time…

My plans this fine Friday evening

My friend love language is people who share ingredients and household items. “I had extra dill, I brought you some, also, I have this shelf. Can you use it?”

There should be an app where unemployed tech workers can match and just hang out bc I’m starting to be tired of doing chores instead of having face to face time with LITERALLY ANYONE

Once again promising myself I will make a dating profile tonight. And yet every bone in my body is like PLEASE don’t make me do this I don’t wanna.

Hello. It is I again. 1am dumb bitch who can’t sleep bc she has to ration her meds that were working so now EVERYTHING is off.

One of my goals has been to fill the 7 gallon bucket with pine cones everyday and this is helping? I love being outside in my garden? It looks like zero progress but my brain feels less anxious? Weird.
