watching Sunset Boulevard (1950) for the first time. so far what I'm taking away is i have GOT to get more difficult and demanding, and I should frame and display my most celebrated lewds all around the house

from the people who brought you thanksgiving smoked turkey carcass broth: christmas two smoked duck carcasses broth

the only christmas tradition we always manage to observe is to watch peewee's playhouse christmas special

I hope everyone got me Purple for christmas.

just had a psychedelic experience butchering and eating a huge pompelmo with my bare hands

"Parson Weems' Fable" most beautiful phrase in the english language

I've started doing yin yoga every night as an excuse to hang out in the Grotto and get my recommended daily allowance of purple

we are so back

I got a confusing massage at the metaphysical store today. I think I may have poisoned an energy worker with my undisclosed suffering

BEST low-karma sensory pleasures 2025

(five days into winter break) did i seriously go to grad school? that seems made up

I am currently testing the effects of one (1) alcoholic beverage on my new medication in a controlled environment. watch this space for the next thirty minutes to see if I post anything out of pocket

in Blazing Saddles, sheriff Bart is Gilgamesh and Mongo is Enkidu

it turns out i wasn't lazy, there was something else wrong with me that was indistinguishable from laziness but which was responsive to dopamine and norepinephrine reuptake inhibition 👍

🛑 Hypermobility Checkpoint 🛑 can you touch your pinky to your index fingey like this?

took my first dose of Wellbutrin this morning and I can already feel my excess kapha converting to vata

after digging out the mail van and shoveling my own sidewalks yesterday I finally treated myself to flu+covid vaccines, so today i am enjoying "all of my flesh and bones and connective tissue are unhappy at the same time"

it was a real pleasure to have me in class this semester

we got almost 7" of snow this morning and I went out to play in the park. on the way home i had the privilege of helping our most esteemed public servant (USPS carrier) dig out her van which was stranded in the snow. it was her first day on the job and she sounded like she was from Georgia

in the course of putting off sitting down to finish my final paper this morning, I decided to shave my incipient little mustache John Waters style. it is still quite faint but now undeniably intentional. no pic

Remember to speak normal, think normal, act normal and dress normal today when you leave the house, in case anyone notices.

my crew curl up in sunspot to sleep

you're welcome 😌🌟

i don't want to do my homework. but i do like to earn twenty points...

They should do MyChart Wrapped

as a reward for surviving my first semester of school i think i deserve to go to the equine energy worker. I don't mean like horse therapy, I'm talking about clip me in the cross ties and hover your hands over my withers until I yawn and then gush over how sensitive and beleaguered i am

there's a zhuang for that

it's funny to me that 'thoughtfulness' is considered a virtue because one of my worst qualities is how full of thoughts i am

taking a break from crying about my homework to google "why are geese always wearing bonnets"

a lot of people will injure themselves shoveling snow today, but I think I will win the award for Stupidest Injury: I wrenched my sacroiliac joint by scooping too heavy of a load. I literally busted my ass

found out at thanksgiving that my favorite uncle Jose (aunt's ex husband who moved back to Mexico) died this year and no one told me

listening and learning

if you're still writing using the hero's journey, your mind is closed to all the possibilities

my mustache is coming along nicely

this eyebright extract in glycerin tastes exactly like tincture of stable muck and sweaty saddle blanket (laudatory)

slideshow of my top ten times that i recognized as the words were coming out of my mouth that this is an insane thing to be telling someone i just met. a recent one that went straight into the leaderboard was "👆this is a house that i lived in or visited frequently in a past life"

this is the only file in my laptop's "Pictures" folder. it was saved on this date one year ago, and the file name is "this guy.png"

my favorite question to ask is "does your cat have a name?"

accidentally made creepy spooky whimsigoth colcannon out of purple potatoes. happy halloween

on the one hand, I think artifice is wonderful and women (and everyone else who wants to) should paint and decorate themselves exactly as they please. on the other hand I think cosmetics are too high tech and I would love to see more chalky white face powder, soot and grease in the mix

my second-most-annoying-and-dysregulating class has met for the last time as of today! the main thing i took away from this class is that when I feel resistance it is actually NOT usually just me being rigid or closed-minded, and trying to calm down and get over it is actually counterproductive

I was shopping for hot eye compress devices to treat blepharitis and it turns out you can buy one for $100 from a company called Wizard Research

grass jelly with sweetened condensed milk is like a bedtime-safe ca phe sua da that you can (kind of) chew

Minnesota Symphony Orchestra? more like Audience Sniffley Coughestra

this morning there were TWO stink bugs on the kitchen counter, and they were both named Reginald. how do you like that?

I just remembered how much i used to suffer during my period just from extreme disgust and food aversion caused by heightened sense of smell. incredibly funny that i was allowed to solve that problem with elective major surgery

☝️don't forget to periodically mentally rehearse how to manage various minor disasters with stoic aplomb (first aid/CPR, flat tire, overflowing toilet, bat in the house, unexpected knock at the door, euthanizing a mortally wounded animal)
