My spouse is making purple sweet potato pies and couldn’t find the pie spice because he threw it out when reorganizing his spice collection earlier this year and is now excited by the knowledge that he can just MAKE HIS OWN pie spice blend. Also these potatoes look sus.

The Steelers uniforms this evening are making me so angry, they are THAT hideous. #nfl #sundaynightfootball

I’ve read a lot of books this month. And I am well ahead of my 2025 challenge to read 100 books (I always choose 100). It’s been a lot of fun this year, just reading whatever.

Ted naps.

Are there other Swifties awake and falling in love with this album? My god it’s SO GOOD.

Somewhere the 7 decent humans who actually qualified got raptured today and are laughing down at the rest of us. Good for them, honestly.

The absolute sass.

I feel like he looks less haunted as every week passes. I hope he feels safe and so so loved.

Watching people on Bluesky argue points on exactly the same side of the point but because their reading and social comprehension is lacking think they’re actually disagreeing is basically my entire feed. Tedious.

I was lucky enough to grab a flu shot, a Covid vaccine, and a pneumonia vax yesterday at a CVS location in CO. They had lots of appt times and you just have to answer yes to having a condition that will be endangered by Covid. Make an appt asap if you’re in the Denver area! ✌️

Someone asked me the other day what I’ve been up to lately and honestly it’s just work and taking my dog for walks and to play with his friends. Like that’s it. That’s all I do.

Today I am willing to engage in fights with strangers on the internet about the new pope and that woman who wrote the Harry Potter books so let me know if you need me. Otherwise here is a photo of Teddy. #lovemydog #dogphotos

I am a Canadian living in the US. Every social media account I have is filled with Canadian family members, friends, and random follows of Canadians I find interesting. Every last one of those social media spaces have suppressed any news of the election results. I had to seek it out. WILD.

We have the windows open today so this one is blissed out.

Honestly losing faith in humanity but at least we still have dogs for now. This one is correct to be so judgy.

I somehow forgot that Bluesky exists and haven’t posted in nearly a month. Guess what! We adopted a dog! His name is Teddy!

I just spent 45 minutes on tik tok watching some British blokes who operate a birds of prey nonprofit trying to recapture one of their more sassy owls who thought she could fly away and honestly it’s the best time I’ve spent all week.

I have never purchased a book so quickly in my entire life.

This was my birthday book haul. We do what we must in the midst of the ruins.

It’s my birthday so I photographed myself which is a thing I do every year.

Still cold but look at that sky just before dawn.

It’s a cold day in the hellscape!

The ASL version of “Not Like Us” is magnificent.

I mean okay to be fair I guess god cares about your football game inasmuch as she wants her children to do well.

That surgeon was all, okay well we’re gonna go get the O.R. ready and I asked if he had to go rev up his chainsaw and he looked so alarmed as if *I* were the weirdo in the room. Some of my best material, lost on this dude.

Also earlier I was doing dishes and realized the surgeon who did my husband’s toe amputation last year reminded me of the science teacher in Fast Times At Ridgemont High. This was because I was washing a fancy knife and wondered if it would cut through bone.

Concerned about egg shortages because then how will the bakery make cakes? I need cake in this hellscape.

I have my books And my poetry to protect me

I am officially menopaused. AMA.

Oh Christ people on the left are already talking about yet another goddamn Kennedy for 2028 and no. Absolutely the fuck not. Stop with these people. It’s exhausting.

OMG we can say ACAB here and not get censored can’t we. I’ve never been so excited this whole last month.

It snowed a lot and is still coming down. I didn’t need this picture to tell me because the headache I woke with around 5am spelled it out. But whatever. Photos are cool.

Just imagining Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo crying on the phone to one another right now. #oscarnoms

This is some ice cream I had for dessert last night. It was covering up sliced bananas. In this hellscape, we do what we must.

Things I have ranted about during the National Championship game broadcast: President Orange Felon taking time to make an address and making it about himself. The way one of the Ohio State Kids wears his pants. That dumb Jesus ad with all the white trash in it. Stupid people.

I’ve been really busy working and scrubbing my filthy shower floor today. Anything interesting happen?

Over here talking about how cute the football commentator outfits are except one of the white dudes who just looks like a beige thumb. #postseasonfootball

It was end of year review due date week and i got all of mine done a whole day early so my reward is books.

Sitting here on a Monday morning trying to psych myself up to begin working. I am in a horrific anxiety spiral and have a random headache that flared up out of nowhere. This is late #perimenopause. Knowing that doesn’t help, but it makes me feel less crazy and alone.

It’s been cold here for quite some time. Or maybe just a few days. Who can tell.

For 2025 I would like the people of the internet to normalize NOT calling their audience “besties”. That’s it. That’s all I ask.

Everything at work is broken. I don’t feel like being the only person who can fix things today. I would like a snack and a nap.

I got new glasses and did you know that all of the people on tv actually have two separate eyes and there is not an influx of cyclops the last few years????

Went on a follow spree this morning and getting a ton of follows back — thank you all so much! Currently deeply immersed in year end at work and trying to cram in the last two books to meet my StoryGraph reading goal for 2024. Here is a photo of Ellie, having had enough of people.

Sitting here listening to Fleetwood Mac. One of the worst sounds in the world is Lindsey Buckingham’s backing vocal on Gypsy. Whine a little more, bro.

Just sitting around watching weird Canadian Christmas movies as one does and I just don’t understand why they’re all so bleak. Also the city in this one film was covered in several inches of snow ten minutes ago and now it’s just wet. This is all way too many questions to have about this.

Somehow this tiny creature can take up MOST of an entire king size bed for a whole night.

Friday in Workers Compensation insurance is never as much fun as one wants a Friday to be.

Sunday morning vibes
