Walked into the living room to see the cat laying on the sofa and a mouse sitting next to her. A mouse that ran away when I approached.

I opened Peacock today and I have one question. Did y’all know that there is a men’s version of the WNBA?

I don’t think people truly appreciate how much trauma and poverty change your brain. If you’ve spent your entire life in survival mode, you will not react to small inconveniences the way someone else does who has resources and a support system.

JUST IN: Three people are in critical condition after a shooting at Evergreen High School in Evergreen, Colorado, according to St. Anthony’s Hospital. https://cnn.it/46fImzg

And people couldn’t understand why I didn’t want to go see Dave Portnoy on Saturday at the CyHawk game…

I find myself thinking about how Nancy Pelosi’s husband had his skull cracked with a hammer. I find myself thinking about dead schoolchildren. I find myself thinking about the MN lawmaker murdered w her husband in their bed, plus the ones who lived. I’m thinking about a lot of things

Life as a fan of Pacific time zone WNBA team while living in the Central time zone is not for the faint of heart…or for the tired.

The refs in this GSV/LV are straight up trash. Basketball play is upgraded to a flagrant, but an obvious arm extension that puts a player in the bench is a common foul? Do better @wnba.com Protect all the players.

One of the top five hardest secrets I’ve ever had to keep: Our friends’ daughter, Lily, is a kid captain this year!

Sabrina Ionescu. That’s all.

Some of you might remember this Jell-O shot.

Friends, I have 105 Jell-O shots to get rid of. If you’re in CR, NL/IC, or Benton county, I’ll deliver them all to the first person who messages me. Make a donation to your favorite NIL collective and I’ll change all the labels for you. *keep them refrigerated and they’re good for another 3 weeks.

I did better this time.

NGL I’m still sad that we didn’t get to see the #IndianaFever #Inferno dance team at Carver.

Pull these announcers. I’m ready. #ValksDream @wnba.com

I’m watching last night’s @wgoldenstate.bsky.social game. How could the @wnba.com really justify this as a fair game with how one sided the officiating is?

The Queen has returned.

Crocodile Concentration Camp flooding already… that was fast…

I'm actually really annoyed that were having another covid wave. It's ridiculous. We really could have handled this differently. And yet, 5 years of people being confused as to why they keep getting sick because of the persistent and incessant gaslighting from public health institutions.

hey remember when a rich ceo died then when they caught the suspect they made a circus of it like they found osama bin laden and charged him with terrorism but less than weeks ago two democrat lawmakers and their spouses were shot as literal assassination to shift control and everyone already forgot

World War 3 kinda sucks, but you know, it was either this or pronouns

Insurance companies should be required to pay for medically necessary ambulance rides. When a person’s heart stops, the ambulance was necessary and the insurance shouldn’t get to say it isn’t. #FreeLuigi

Threads was the worst thing to happen to Instagram. Why would I want threads when I have a whole beautiful Bluesky?

Today, I thanked my parents for making sure I was vaccinated as a child.

If you see this, post a flower 🌸

Just a reminder that it’s the perfect time of year to go into Hobby Lobby and Target and ask where the Pride section is. #loveislove

My A’ja slides arrived today and I just can’t with how gorgeous they are! 🩷🩷🩷

Dear Iowa, We left you with perfect weather on Tuesday and you couldn’t take care of it until we got back? Really?

I’m never drinking again.

I've seen signage up indicating "New Traffic Pattern" starting Friday (tomorrow) on Penn St. bridge over I-380. I've been digging around IowaDOT website and I think they might be closing the ramps on the north side of Penn for 3 months soon. Just a heads up. #MattsHighwayUpdate

Quote this post with a picture of the airplane you'll accept as a bribe.

My daughter’s speech therapist went out of business because Medicaid reimbursement rates were too low. We do not have Medicaid. I’m going to keep posting this until people understand that when Medicaid gets cut *everyone* loses services.

I participate in No Mow May and am applying for my National Wildlife Certification. Just received a notice from the city to fix the “nuisance” or I’ll be fined. They are not going to like my response. Wildlife and pollinators are not a nuisance.

Dear Iowa state legislators, These teens have a message for you about the “job” you’re doing. They were lockdown this week because of a gun at school but your only concern seems to be taking away their civil rights. You should be protecting them not giving them fear. #iowa #priorities #lgbtqia

This has lived in my head, rent free, for seven years. Now it can live in yours. #sorrynotsorry

i don't want a leader who can't tell the difference between MS PAINT AND MS13

People: But Sherwin-Williams paint is so expensive. Me: If by “expensive” you mean “worth every single penny” then sure. Just remember that you get what you pay for. *before and after - this is no primer and one coat of S-W Duration paint in Evening Shadow

I’m unloading a truckload of compost and it’s so windy I keep unwittingly eating dirt. This project might get pushed to another day.

One of AJ’s Barbies is having a spa day because her hair needed a good soak. #RespiteCareProvider

Where do I get Barbies that isn’t Target, Amazon or Walmart?

I’m on the struggle bus. I am in the middle of a book that I just don’t like. I don’t know why, I just don’t. So instead of DNFing it I just dread picking up my Kindle knowing that it’s waiting for me. Someone give me the permission to DNF it. Please.

B1G+ student announcers are better than these ES(EC)PN announcers.

I’m going to have to turn off the game. It was 10-4 Iowa when I got the TV to catch up. Now it’s 11-20 Oklahoma. I’m bad luck apparently.

Tonight’s dinner menu: highly sought after pasta in a creamy tomato based sauce and a side toasted buttery garlic bread paired with a blend of whiskey and effervescence, harmonizing warm oak and vanilla notes with a caramel sweetness. aka: Where’s Waldo Spaghetti-os, toast and a Jack and Pepsi

Having lunch with MAGA family this week so of course I’m browsing “The Snowflake Agenda” section of @raygunsite.com picking out just the right shirt for the occasion.

I’m watching Handmaid’s Tale for the first time. Considering what Iowa did last week in stripping civil rights from a minority group of people, it feels all too close to becoming reality.
