The only problem with being hairy is how toilet seats, clothing, and jewelry will rip said hairs out of your body randomly and make you go “ow!”

"This promise of an AI future, is really just a collective anxiety that wealthy people have about how well they're gonna be able to control us in the future." - @tressiemcphd.bsky.social with an absolute mic drop moment about AI bullshit. Incredible words. Listen to all of it!

Woke up with a Steven Universe song in my head, so today is gonna be a nostalgia day. Hey, you Show me that solvable problem We can get through this I’ll do the hardest part with you ⭐️

“Year in review” this, “wrapped” that, my only reflections on 2025 belong in my much-neglected diary. I’ll share this, though: this has been THE longest fucking year, while simultaneously each month has snuck up on me with amazing speed

Finished a nonbinary book cozy today 🖤💜🤍💛

I went to bed early and slept deeply until my alarm, fuck yeah to starting my day with this energy

Exhausted and missing my girl. I can still get some of the calm with a weighted pillow on my chest, but it doesn’t nuzzle my beard or purr or bring my baby back. Remembering her as a way of keeping her with me 💜 and feeling grateful for 16 years of her being in my life

Made a mistake and ordered a ladies’ large. I gotta say, I think it makes my tits look nice

Holding two thoughts simultaneously: More queer rep is good especially given the anti-queer and anti-trans climate AND I’m allowed to be angry about lack of body diversity and demand more tl;dr I haven’t started watching Hockey Butt Sluts yet and not sure if I will

In my internal pep talks, I refer to myself as “darling” and highly suggest trying it if you haven’t yet

No one ever said to me, “If you spend the night in the Gay Village, you need to hook up,” and yet it has been a compulsion for years. I just stayed two nights by myself and chose to spend quality time alone with my body and a bottle of poppers. Next time I fuck in the Village, it will be intentional

Since I have a whole apartment to myself, gonna try reading the module I’m studying out loud

Fuck AI, I want to find all of my information in the tomes I have carefully curated over my lifetime of wizardry

Love when strangers compliment my hat, but I’ve noticed a pattern. It’s always, “Did someone make that for you?” I’m always very happy to tell them how many hours of channeling my anxiety went into making it (6-7hrs in a powerful burst of hyperfocus) Anyway, people who look like men can crochet 🧶

It’s taken me several in-game days to gather a few items and visit a particular room in Blue Prince and damn but it feels good to be right. Of course, now I have something new to figure out. (66 hours in and on Day 124)

Is there any good fat representation in Heated Rivalry?

How do I practice walking slower for my mental health when the temperature outside is 🥶

Read the shirt 👍

I like “oops” because I try hard to avoid apologizing if I haven’t done anything wrong, but “oops” covers all sorts of minor communication errors that we all make on a regular basis

Ask for help; don’t overthink it. Trying to get back into an ADHD project of mine: setting one reasonable and achievable goal per week. All I have to do is find a moment of joy in housework. Sunday is a good day for it ☀️🪙⚔️

I can’t afford therapy this year, but I can hear my therapist’s voice from this time last year, reminding me that the shorter days and colder temperatures make our bodies crave more rest And that is okay. Natural, even. Resting is not weakness, it’s part of a cycle that even the moon exemplifies 🌑♐️

I really do talk about things in therapy, learn excellent strategies, and then percolate on that for a year or more before it finally starts making sense in my body

I blame the chess pieces in the rooms of Blue Prince for kicking off this rewatch of the Queen’s Gambit ♟️

If anyone in the wild says “food noise” to me, I will give them the most incredulous look as I reply, “You mean HUNGER?”

I am cringe but I am free

Four of Pentacles and Nine of Pentacles. Where is the line between a tightly held control and material stability?

Between sessions of Blue Prince, I am reading Jung’s Memories, Dreams, Reflections (MDR? like in Severance? 🤔). His descriptions of house dreams read like my days in Mt. Holly and I am loving the vibe 🔎🚪⛲️

It is healing to my misspent Catholic youth to utter, “Fuck you, Jesus,” each time I pass through the chapel in Blue Prince 🪙

I think I’m gonna break my drag race hiatus with this upcoming season of Canada’s. It’s such a relief to me that none of the queens will be calling Brad Goreski “Daddy” this time around!

Now that my birthday is over, I am reverting to 38 for the rest of the year. (Kidding, I am actually so mentally ready for my 40s that it’s bizarre to have one last year in my 30s to go)

This is 39 with a side of sleep deprivation

Get to know your mutuals; list 10 random things you like: Tarot cards The sound of heavy rain Walking near water The moon Singing A cat purring on my chest Morning coffee Hot showers/baths A book and a good album playing Improvised stretching

The power came back just before 9pm, having been off nearly 12 hours. It was a brisk 14°C (57°F) in most of the house. I awoke this morning to electricity, which means coffee and eggs for breakfast 😋

The sun has set and the power is still off

This is my “no power since 7:15am” look

It snows. I feel like November just began because I’ve been stumbling through this week due to the time change 🥱

I don’t like when someone sends me a business email, then a second one less than an hour later, then a phone call and voicemail 12 hours after that. We still haven’t hit 24 hours since the initial message and I am feeling chased down over something that could be easily accomplished on my website

Having a day where I hate everything (#1: our transit strike means no clients are coming from out of neighbourhood 🙃) and remembering that neglecting to eat does nothing to help with this. Snacking now. Then back to crochet to distract from the Dread

Help I can’t stop crocheting, it’s actually helping with the anxiety 🧶

I don’t blame the bus drivers or the maintenance workers. I blame François Legault for withholding funding for our transit system. He should pay me for every client who won’t be able to come for a massage this month.

"I DON'T NEED YOU TO FUCKING REWRITE WHAT I'VE JUST WRITTEN!"

Sometimes I don’t crochet for months, sometimes it’s several hours in a day, I don’t control it

What if I spent my birthday streaming a brand new XIV character and drinking rum? 🤔

My left eye keeps twitching cause I’m SLEEP DEPRIVED whoo (naptime imminent)

It’s one of those “my body is done sleeping at 6:00am” kinda days, eh?

Bf: Can I sit on your cock? Me: But I’m not done reading this wikipedia page on the wendigo And so he got on and came while I finished reading criticism of white artists using Indigenous antagonists in horror

Bluesky's failure to catch on with the right-wing isn't because its members are uniquely censorious to people who disagree with them, it's because the one thing this site has going for it is a functional, comprehensive block system, which reduces the right's ability to bully, mock, and harass.

I love when the nurses are surprised when I say, “No tape, please, my arms are so hairy.” I just hold pressure on that cotton ball for a little longer. #KnowYourStatus

Apple Music finally did the thing correctly: I got a notification that Of Monsters and Men’s new album is out 🎉 almost through a first listen of All is Love and Pain in the Mouse Parade 🎶

Stop equating weight loss with health. Stop assuming people in fat bodies want to lose weight. Stop upholding the thin body as an ideal to aspire to.
