There's a new indian restaurant near me and I know it will destroy my stomach (because garlic and onion) but they have PANEER FRIED RICE and it is listed as both gluten-free and nut-free which is important to note for when @elgransenglar.bsky.social comes to visit (food allergy sibling solidarity)

My financial assistance got approved for my endoscopy!!! Balance went from 4500 to 900 🥹

Apparently it's "horse girl fall" so is that carte blanche to rub a pair of full seat breeches on Zissou and use them to wipe some of his drool for authenticity with a smear of mud for pizzazz and then wear them as a chic fashion statement?

Me earlier today: hell yeah birthday cake Me when the cakes are due to come out of the pans: ...I don't have a cooking rack.

im only 23 and the thought of being with an 18 year old is wince-inducing despite being both legal and a pretty small gap in numbers

This photo has garnered a lot of positive response in the short time it's been posted so I think that makes it the winner

I'm ordering Zissou's official therapy dog bandana and ID badges and!!! Trading cards 🥹 Probably will include trading cards with my Christmas cards tbh because my Christmas card plan is a blue-footed booby with a Santa hat that says "Le tits now," surely snl celebrity jeopardy is still relevant?

It is warm enough to not need the heat but too cold to run the air conditioner and someone kept me up all night with 30494059 degrees of canine body heat. It's a great Saturday for napping, at least!

My mom told me to order myself two cake pans using her credit card and her Amazon prime and yeah yeah Amazon is trash but it's so sweet that my mom can help make my birthday cake in a way even across state lines 🥹

I want to make myself a birthday cake for my birthday because I deserve it but the box mix calls for 2 eight inch or 2 nine inch round pans. I have one 7" pan. I looked at conversions and got overwhelmed so I think I'm going to either try to thrift my two pans OR... just buy the disposable ones?

When ur mom says to use the emergency credit card for dinner on ur birthday in a few days but then ur faced with the reality that ur heart yearns for Indian but ur tummy probably still isn't ready

Hey so “underage girls” are…children. The word you’re looking for is children. They’re not like, women-in-waiting or women-lite or whatever. They’re children. I think some of you are very uncomfortable with what that means for you but it is still true.

I live in fear of the day something unsavory comes out about Chewy because they slid into Zissou's DMs asking about maybe sending him something for the holidays and I'm sorry but it makes me feel special when the corporation loves my dog as much as I do.

Wild-type polio detected in German sewage—this is *actual* polio, not vaccine-derived virus. This will probably be a one-off event, but it shows the real potential for polio reintroduction into under-vaccinated communities.

The riots have been postponed

Gonna be honest, I might riot if I don't see the northern lights tonight

When you only saw one set of footprints,,,

[the correct Kirk]

Cold enough for dog booties today

So it's the anniversary of the wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald and also the wreck of the Americans healthcare system???

what are those of us without FSAs or HSAs or whatever the fuck supposed to do with this. i have a debit card and i need to go to the dentist you assholes

I hope the next governor of Wisconsin brings the same energy as Governor Evers

Who has a duvet and has solved the problem of the duvet insert constantly slipping down in the cover and being a massive pain in the ass? I have sewn in ties and the problem persists and I hate it

Are you a Costco person? I bought this box of wine that's clearly intended to be a gift for someone else, but after trying one bottle (the Ulula, a Spanish red blend), I went back and bought another. $35, 4 bottles, all highly rated reds

while i have your attention

Two questions: do you have a high yield savings account? does it come with savings "buckets"? The one I have right now doesn't have the same great rate it did when I opened it (not a BAD rate at all, I just think I can maybe do better) and I would like a house fund, car fund, and dog fund.

I am a scientist, and I am also the dumb experiment

apropos james watson’s death i had an idle thought today about how stupid race/iq stuff sounds. “buh if your skin is darker you are biologically less smart” is a thing only a dumbass can believe

I'm actually so excited Watson is dead, Cheney and Watson in one week???? Hell yeah. Great week to be an American woman in science 🥰

Rosalind Franklin died at 37 of ovarian cancer attributed to radiation exposure from the methods she & her assistant used to photograph a cross-section of the DNA double helix. Meanwhile, Watson won a Nobel off that work & survived to the ripe old age of 97 by simply: stealing those notes!

I haven't ridden in years, and I especially haven't ridden in my own saddle in years and it is probably time to sell it but I don't want to let go 😭

Sometimes you see your dog do a goofy little behavior that makes you love them even more and tonight that behavior from Zissou was pouncing on a ball he was chasing ❤️

I did the thing and I know there's only so much they can do but I want them aware

I need y'all to help me not lose my shit today. Our nemesis tie-out dog got loose (not from the tie out) and came at me and Zissou yesterday night and when I went to the leasing office to complain, they were out of office (due to illness) I need to write this complaint email and not go ballistic

When JD Vance tries to divorce his wife because he wants to get with Charlie Kirk’s Widow.

Disappointment: bought some steaks from Aldi and they smell not right upon opening them and I have to figure out what ELSE sounds okay to my stomach for dinner now

Idk what I did but y'all I'm back on 2-3 times daily carafate and I hate this for me

Zissou and I had our first therapy dog visit today, and one of the things the therapy animal teams do is have trading cards of their therapy animals. I found a superhero trading card template online that I think would be so fun to use? Abilities: wiggling, super sniffing, snuggling

Zissou's singular raised eyebrow is a paid actor and a wonderful tribute to Leonard Nimoy. He thinks the whole thing is highly illogical but he's willing to play along. Happy Halloween 🖖🏻

He was the coagulated lotion goober of people.

WOOF I have had a weird week and my stomach was feeling the stress but shout-out to my therapist for fitting me in for a sort of last minute extra session to help me deal

These gluten free muffins nearly brought me to tears this morning. They are SO SOFT I reread the ingredient list 10 times because they taste too good to be true.

Fuck I spent all weekend making a stupid Spock outfit for Zissou but now I fear we may have to do Mabel and Waddles from Gravity Falls (if not this year, next year?)

I am in an absolutely terrible mood but I got some of my stained glass window decals up and they look Nice Enough to me

It's early to know what the field will look like, but I wouldn't be mad if she ended up being the nominee. There's a few other folks I think will try to run for the Dems that I also wouldn't be mad about, but oh my god I just want precedented times again please

He hates it but progess is still happening, i think bigger ear holes might be needed?

Okay so I used the cosplayer's cheap custom dress form trick where they saran wrap themselves and then duct tape themselves but with a bowl as a base to make a duct tape hat of sorts (I can't duct tape my dog!) Not sure the hat will be the base or just used as a pattern but progess is happening

Star Trek fans and general creatives: how would you put Spock hair on a dog? I'm thinking a cardboard "helmet" of sorts covered in felt (for the most structure, though I could do straight felt and sew it)? But how do I shape it? I've attached my idea and the same photo w/o markup for any other ideas

It's that time of year where I think about how my mom and I would absolutely KILL at a costume party dressed as Moira and Alexis Rose, but alas - I don't think we'll be invited to a costume party together.
