Two good things happened today: 1. I went a week without a migraine, and 2. I am now a member of the local Pride Center board.

I started watching @dimension20.bsky.social this season and it's been a delight. The setting is a post-apocalyptic wasteland and the characters are all weird and well-meaning. Things can be bad, but people don't have to be.

There are more of us than there are of them. Our sincere love for each other and our simple wish to live is stronger than their hate. Here is a link hopefully it works www.theatlantic.com/politics/202...

1.5 trazodone is Too Many Trazodone

The Challenger explosion* is my Roman Empire. *hubris of men in pursuit of fame rather than discovery

This is why I have approximately one waffle a year and no pancakes ever.

All this edible did is make me tired. By 8 pm on a Friday night. I can't believe this is the same body that used to drink shots and dance.

Transphobia is such a weird hill to die on. Someone else's gender doesn't affect yours AT ALL.

Many things taste better than skinny feels, actually. Bread is awesome, and often quite nutritious.

How I'm walking out of 2025:

Quality sleep has been elusive for a while now, regardless of my attempts to right it. Tonight, I went with a valerian tea blend that a friend's made for me. I have been calling it "Monkey Knockout Gas." Let's hope the MKG and magnesium/melatonin gummies solve this problem.

Replace "uncle" with "Elderberry" and this describes me as an auntie.

The last week has been hard, so this horchata was downright medicinal.

The Haters Guide to the Williams-Sonoma Catalog is a time-honored tradition in my friend group.

Dragging myself into the end of the year on another Lemon-it's-Wednesday-ass week.

My bullshit superpower is that I can hear soft noises (usually electrical) but I can't tell where they're coming from. #AuDHD

In case anyone was wondering how my evening is going, I just squirted the sink sprayer directly into my face as I was cleaning the air fryer.

"Are you analyzing me right now?" (therapist)

@dallasdanger.com and I love a food holiday.

I woke up with a migraine, so I cracked open a cold one* for my drive to work. *Twist of Lime Topo Chico with two squirts of Buoy

The phrase "transgender ideology," aside from being a dog whistle, is a ridiculous phrase. People who say it are gross.

"I can't stand it, I know you planned it I'm gonna set it straight, this Watergate I can't stand rocking when I'm in here 'Cause your crystal ball ain't so crystal clear"

I had a rare WFH day and got off work three hours early yesterday. I have no plans today or tomorrow. It feels like I'm on vacation, which reinforces my supervisor's observation that I don't take enough time off.

Your last saved meme is your moral philosophy.

Today is the 10th anniversary of my dad's death. We were not close, so I don't want him back. It's just strange how different my life is now than it was a decade ago. He has had more of a positive influence on my life since he died than he ever did while alive. #GriefIsWeird

Bad news: I have a migraine. Good news: The local fast food chain allows you to buy a side of pickles.

A movie you've seen now than 7 times with gif

I fell asleep around mid-7th and woke up mid-11th. I watched the bottom of the 11th on Gameday, so I IMMEDIATELY went to Bluesky to verify. This was the first thing I saw. This is how I found out it was official.

I can't even BEGIN to count the times my ear plugs have come in clutch for migraine or just general AuDHD sensory overwhelm. (OG Loop Switch)

Halloween plans: Stuff my face full of Cookout, change into pajamas, do a load of laundry, and hand out candy to any trick or treaters. Also, there's a baseball game tonight? 🎃 👻 🍬 ⚾️ 💙

I just got an autism diagnosis to go with my ADHD. "The girls are fighting" but it's my need for routine and my need for novelty. #AuDHD

Community is literally life-saving.

Today is brought to you by Migraine™️! Migraine™️: Because Fuck You, That's Why!

Dress for the job you want. JK I'm a witch every day even though I may not always look like it.

Thanks to steroids, muscle relaxers, and my bag of hot and cold things, I made it through the rest of the workweek.

Good News: I have the day off in an otherwise busy workweek. Bad News: It's because my back issue has gotten much worse and I called out to go to urgent care.

Me: (applied an ice pack to my aching and stiff lower back) Also Me: Why am I suddenly freezing? Am I running a fever?

Lemon it's Wednesday-ass week ending strong! I aggravated a back injury and my only morning appointment didn't show up.

It's been a Lemon, it's Wednesday-ass week so far.

What's your sign? Me:

I woke up feeling tired and grumpy after a long and busy week and a night of poor sleep. This is the affirmation card I pulled for today. #WitchSky

I get up at 5 am most days (thanks to my cat Rhythm and my circadian rhythm). This gives me time for what my friends and I call "soft morning."

I get my first mammogram tonight. I'm more worried about the fact that my appointment is at the end of the day than I am about the procedure itself.

You’re waiting on a rapture, I’m waiting on an asteroid. We’re not the same.

One of our major rituals for the year took place last night, and then I lightly recreated it for a local UU church this morning.
