*sigh* Here we go again. About $300 short on rent, because everything just keeps going wrong lately. M's last two checks have been short because of some kind of payroll glitch. We should get it back eventually, but rent is due Sunday. PayPal.me/brokenqueene CA/V: brokenqueene

I am annoyed. I just now realized that the hairs that are breaking off probably have something to do with the fact that I switched back to cheaper shampoo and conditioner. So I can either be responsible and save money, or I can have whatever hairs are not already being stolen by stress. Awesome.

It's been fun seeing The Consultants lose their mind about how they don't get this ad, which is the coolest shit she's done yet. (Also, yes, that's Matt Mercer, who I've come to learn since this ad dropped is more famous than Michael Jordan.)

A year ago: We need TAXES on the WEALTHY Now: We need a cleansing fire

M moved the playpen from my office to the living room so if B doesn't sleep through the night he can go out there so I can sleep, since M is on the couch a lot lately anyway. So I might actually get some sleep tonight?

We’re owed a few evil people deaths asap. Like 10-12 for Catherine O’Hara alone. Come on fascist scumbags, get to croaking.

If you're having a bad day, just think of the intern who's trying to keep Trump off of Truth Social right now

Maybe we need to start throwing bad people into active volcanoes to get some of that hope flowing again.

I may have a stroke. Someone said protests don’t belong in church and it took every ounce of self-censure within me not to say “Deborah you are literally a Protestant.” A PROTESTant. I assume they think Luther was nailing Bed, Bath, & Beyond coupons to the door.

It’s hard to imagine someone more universally enjoyed than Catherine O’Hara where the opinions range from “I like her and her work” to “I love her and her work” and that’s a pretty good legacy

Alt text and I’m crying.

Beetlejuice was the first "scary" movie I ever saw. I was at a sleepover when I was 6, my mom had no idea about it, and she refused to rent it when I wanted to watch it again, until I told her I'd already seen it.

Morning repost. Still at $60/$300.

I got 4hrs of sleep again, and this time it was on purpose. 😭 B has an early doctor appointment. On the bright side, all my sleep was in a row this time because I made M deal with any wakeups in the middle of the night.

Every time we think we're about to get caught up and get things under control, we get kicked again. But we have to keep trying. It's been almost a year of this, with a baby and hospital bills on top of it. I'm so tired.

I'm trying very hard to stay alive here, but ya know, it would just really help if my entire life could stop feeling impossible for five minutes

ICE's decision to just leave cars abandoned in the roads is one of those dystopian things that makes you recoil in shock when you encounter it.

what’s astounding about this is not only the incredible cruelty but the complete lack of even the most basic public relations instincts they kidnap a five year old and generate national outrage and rather than do some basic window dressing to treat him nice while abusing everyone else they do this

I don't remember the pretend food stage starting this young, but B is refusing to drink his bottle unless I pretend drink it first.

I miss two weeks ago, when the baby would let me sleep.

This evil administration is not only physically endangering children, it's emotionally traumatizing them by the thousands, if not millions. This will be a scar our nation will bear forever. Never vote for a Republican and take every opportunity to shame any Democrat who supports their atrocities.

How tired am I? Well, I just poured my drink into my hand instead of the ibuprofen.

Take his personal army away from him while you can, you stupid, stupid assholes. You’re like an armadillo playing dead in the middle of the road so the semi won’t hurt you

I know all eyes are on Minneapolis, but there's a fast-approaching nightmare in Springfield, Ohio. Trump is revoking protected status for tens of thousands of Haitians living there on Feb. 3. Reportedly, on Feb. 4, 1000 ICE agents are arriving to remove this population. Ethnic cleansing.

Lotta folks will say "we won't forget their names" but he, knowing he is an American music icon, PUT THEIR FULL NAMES IN A BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN SONG which is actually the most anyone has done thus far to preserve those names for history. And some guy sittin on his lil computer is like "meh cringe"

The climatologist told me historians will wonder why we didn’t do more. The epidemiologist told me historians will wonder why we didn’t do more. The activist told me historians will wonder why we didn’t do more. The historian told me that nobody listens to historians.

I barely got any sleep, baby is fussy, my kitchen is flooded, I have to take care of the baby during work for even longer than usual today (because the kitchen is flooded), I'm still sick, work is bullshit today, I'm pissed at my husband, my bank account is overdrawn, and then there's the fascism...

There's water all over my entire kitchen because M decided to leave the dishes piled in the sink, and the drain hose from the bottle washer worked its way out of the sink so the water went everywhere but down the drain. And I don't have time to clean it up before work. 🤬

I think my child is trying to kill me. He finally let me go to sleep 3.5hrs ago and has woken me up 4x since then.

Sesame Street is now offering tips for parents on post-trauma comfort because the federal government is physically and mentally abusing our country's children.

my grandmother, an Auschwitz survivor, was Anne Frank’s neighbor in Amsterdam, and Oma thinks this comparison is perfectly apt

gallego sucks (his position on trans issues means I will never trust him) but it's very good that a frontline, moderate-coded member of the senate caucus is calling for miller's head and hopefully it will help drag the rest of the squishes towards this position

The "ban whistles" stuff is how you know whistles are working incredibly well

Three reporters! It took three reporters to land this huge story! Well, three people roughly in the shape of reporters. But three!

bro whistles are the NICE option. do you really want to challenge 1,000 nerds with 3D printers to invent something louder and more annoying???

before you take any of the "Trump is pivoting/lamenting/lowering the temperature after the Pretti murder" stories too seriously, absolutely nothing has changed in Minneapolis: "an absolutely brutal day of raids and abductions" says one friend

jesus fucking christ dawg these shitheads gotta go

It really fucking sucks how I am B's main caregiver for 20 hours out of the day and yet I feel like I never see him. M, who has him for the other 4hrs, spends more quality time with him than I do, because he doesn't also have to do seven other things every minute he spends with him.

me? oh yeah, fine. I'm doing great. just sort of left my body for a second to observe the current moment and my place in it from a high angle, sort of like what I imagine you'd see from a spy satellite? but one that can look through time? but yeah, I'll have that report done by the end of the day

I was bored and googled my ex-husband, honestly expecting to find an obituary. Instead, I found out he's in prison for dealing meth.

They tear gassed a PRE-SCHOOL. Every one of these fucking ghouls needs to be locked up never let loose.

How long before they just decide to walk into a school and start shooting kids? A week? Two? Or is that already on the schedule for Wednesday?

Breaking per NBC News — CBP has shot and critically wounded another person, this time in Arizona. Very few details available at this time.

Last night B put a piece of carpet lint in his mouth and got it far enough into his throat to choke a little. (He's obviously fine, it scared the crap out of me and M though.) That's more than he's done with any food more solid than a puree, and I realized it was a size/texture thing.

Here is the child’s drawing.
