I’ve spent the past few weeks dealing with a coworker situation, and I thought I had finally come to a good resolution about it. Then today I learned that mere hours later, admin swooped in and made all that work and stress pointless. Yay, but also, what the hell?

That moment when you’re cleaning out your email and find an old one where a co-teacher raved about you to the admin completely unprompted. Not gonna lie, needed that boost. 😊

Indeed just told me I should apply to be a police officer, all because I have a security position on my resume. Ma’am, never in a million years. 👎

Just wrapped up my last therapy session with this online clinic, and tell me why I was getting choked up at the end. Like, I didn’t want to go. 😭

Dear reader, it was followed by a techno remix of “Pocketful of Sunshine.” Where is this twink? 😂👍

This Planet Fitness is currently playing “What I Want” by MUNA, and I desperately want to thank the Gay™️ who put this gym playlist together. 🔥

A gay club in Boston recently hosted a Heated Rivalry night. I just saw a video of the huge line, and it looked like a ton of straight women. Needless to say, I’m glad I chose not to go.

Proof that I still did it. 👍🏃‍♂️🔥

Just remembered I promised my friend I would go for a run today, and I had already gotten into my sweatpants at home. FML

As fully expected, I pissed off a student so much this week that he tracked down my socials. Not even phased at this point (it’s happened every single year), just confused why so many boys do that as the first response.

Met a guy at the gay bar tonight, vibes felt good, and he dropped that he was single in a way that felt pointed. Watch this space. 👀🤭

Mortifying: discovering that the entire staff knows about a recent dispute with a coworker despite trying to keep the info contained Validating: discovering that almost everyone is on my side

John Cage, submitting the sheet music for "4'33"" to his publisher: What do you think? Publisher: No notes.

It’s funny: I put up with a lot when it was just students that were a pain to deal with. But the second a coworker broke my trust? I filled out three applications that night.

2025 wasn’t a perfect year (by any measurement), but it was the year of chaotic joy. It was the year I went and I found wonder and whimsey where I could. And I am determined to bring this energy with me into 2026. 💜

I’ve been watching “The Pitt,” and I just made it to THAT episode. To THAT moment. And holy shit, Noah Wyle deserved that Emmy. He deserved all the awards. What a heartstopping performance.

Resigning myself to the fact that I have to stop texting a guy for the rest of break. The message has been received.

So I just watched *that* scene in Stranger Things. And yeah, that was fucking awful. How did they mess it up that badly?

Currently bundled under many blankets on a cold New England morning. Only thing that could make this better was if I had a man to cuddle with.

My dad just complained there was a fruity taste to the cider he ordered. Yes, you read that right.

I was perfectly calm and normal about that finale, and definitely didn’t cry at all. #heatedrivalry #imlying 😭

Christmas had been going okay until my MAGA uncle showed up after 9 and is now taking his time to leave. Super fun for me. 👍😐

Normal people: “Stranger Things drops new episodes tonight!” Me: The “Heated Rivalry” finale drops in 2.5 hours! 🏒🥅⛸️💜🔥🏳️‍🌈

Family Christmas Cookie Party was pretty lit last night. 👍🔥🍪

Just sent it. It’s normal to slightly panic about this, right?

Guy I’ve hung out with a couple times posted one of those “what should we do together” memes on his story, and I’m wondering how honest I should be. 👀😅

A hot guy is texting me during the show I’m performing in, and it is giving me the energy I need. 😂🔥

The way I can tell I’m sick, but my body is fighting for dear life because of how much there is to do this week. I just know that the second I get free time, my body is going to crash. Hard.

A) Objectively terrible choice because it’s one of the best shows ever. B) Feels especially targeted considering how gay it is. C) It’s literally a Netflix Original. Why are they removing it? How are we supposed to watch it? I hate everything about this.

This is my favorite thing I bought at Snowport yesterday. 🔥

This was the kind of week where I got home and almost immediately passed out from sheer exhaustion every single day. It’s been rough, friends.

Super fun to find out that 2 old friends died today.

Arranging some music for an indoor drumline, and was just told by the director that the ending “fucking slaps.” 🔥🎉

Spent last night watching a bunch of drag queens play old ladies solving murders. Fun! 🔥💜

Well, that was a fun little spiral I entered for a few hours there. 👍

Anyone hiring? Desperately need a change.

Gotta love it when people, in a desperate effort to make things better and have people not be mad at them anymore, instead make it much worse. 👍

After weeks of believing I would have the house to myself on Friday and making plans to bring a guy over, my family just informed me that they would not, in fact, be boarding the dog and they need me to take care of her. I’m fucking pissed.

I was not ready for Episode 3. Holy fuck, y’all. 😭

Okay fine, I’m finally watching the damn gay hockey show. 👍

Still riding the high of making Jack Barakat of @alltimelowband.bsky.social laugh on-stage during the Sunday show at MGM Music Hall in Boston. 🔥

Did you constantly check Greek mythology books out of the library as a kid or are you straight now

To be completely honest, I don’t think I would change much about my life at all. Despite making almost no money, I like my life. What UBI would do is take so much stress away. I would be able to pay my bills and not feel guilty about any fun I decide to have. It would still be a game-changer.

Explain to me why my high school drumline students just gave the best performance of the year at a random Thanksgiving game. 😂

Witnessed my superintendent, who is a fairly big man, nail an almost-perfect cartwheel during our pep rally today. Genuinely very impressed. 👏

After reaching the end of this long, horrific week, I was pleasantly surprised with a free block at the end of the day. Sometimes you do have to just push through.

Besties, I’m really not sure how much longer I can do my current job.

My dad’s trying to say that he didn’t have violent movies growing up. I don’t know, should I introduce him to the entire exploitation genre? Or literally any of the hit action movies from the 70s?

Also, I think I crushed this interview. 🔥 Now we wait.

The gay bar I’m in just put on “Telephone.” And all was right in the world for a second.
