I think I cracked the code on drawing in a way that does not 1. hurt my back 2. feel so onerously not-casual that I never do it. It involves putting the ipad edge against my chest so I can hold that bitch two inches from my nose. -17 in the good eye gang rise up!

I was disembarking from the train and a guy asked me what train that was and explained he couldn’t tell the green line and the red line apart because he was colorblind. The livery of the trains is identical, the signage on them identifies them by the words “red line” “green line” etc., no colors

[in the apartment building hallway] Child: AAAAAAAAA Adult: Why are you screaming Child: *even louder* AAAAAAAAAAAA Adult: WHY ARE YOU SCREAMING?

You have to take a look, it's important

I hate when I try to get myself feeling better and start my day and have some coffee and then I'm in pain but awake about it

Too tired to go out but also I need my gauze and the easiest next meal I can make needs a carrot. I hope the dasher gets a kick out of my extremely goofy order of a pack of gauze and three carrots.

Never understood the point of a bean and cheese burrito with nothing else, but I made my own refried beans out of cranberry beans and used a fresh tortilla and now I get how it's enough just as that.

It has taken over a week but I have finally figured out how to dress the wound on my knee such that it is adequately covered, flexes with my knee so I can sit normal* and walk, and doesn't irritate the wound or stick to it. I hope I never need this info again. *fire log pose, not actually normal

Had a dream there was discourse accusing an actor of pretending to be an actor just to win an award. People were debating the ethics of “stealing” the award from a “real” actor by winning it. I was so baffled I woke myself up.

Free idea: give your worldbuilding project sophant a weird cultural hang up that makes all their art of one specific something comically inaccurate. Like those creepy adult man Jesus babies.

Neighbor walking up and down the hall shouting at the top of her lungs but I still couldn't make out anything she was saying. I blasted Oops I Did It Again on my phone and pressed it against the door until she shut up.

Had a migraine, slept like, 6 hours, lost my entire day, now tired and achy. Trying to apply the "never trust how you feel about your life after 9PM" to postrdromal migraine malaise.

Did you know you can just build things? bsky.app/profile/pron...

I decided to do 24 hour comics day the day after, but about the designated day, but also about today, but I'll probably finish it on a third day from the designated day, because since when has time ever been real to me. Dragging you all into hell with me.

Between healing and bandage adjustments I have managed to be able to sit cross cross applesauce again yay

I think my knee injury was more serious than I initially thought. I was sure by now it's be a painless scab but this morning it was hot to the touch, weepy and still extremely painful. I cleaned it again and dressed it more seriously and it's better but the whole thing scares me

Step one: consider including a hoarder situation in a story Step two: request book about hoarding from library Step three: book becomes available as you are looking at the accumulation of sparkling water cans around you Step four: recognition of self through the other followed by dealing with cans

happy black history month to Ken sample, thank u for inventing the fursona.

why liquid bandage gotta sting like that, fuck 😣

Beware of baristas that don’t know what an Italian soda is, after explaining the concept, you might receive a soda that is half syrup and half flat seltzer

Half way to the bike shop my rear wheel jammed and I fell off my bike in the middle of crossing a street and skinned my knee. I was pretty miserable for the remaining limping walk to the shop but they have two dogs here who insisted on playing tug of war and it was hard to stay depressed after that

It's going to be 55F today, I am accepting the nature of the current climate of my region despite memories of 1990 haunting me, and swapping back to wearing converse.

My bike rack broke 🥲 the front bracket snapped. The rack has a lifetime guarantee but requires you to go through the shop that ordered it for you and they went out of business. Guess I'm gonna havta see if another bike shop can fix it for me...

At (my cat) Historian's request I have decided to give her her wet food at the same time every day or my bed time if I'll be asleep at the time. I think she demanded it today even though it's not bed time because it's laced with laxative and she probably has opinions on when that kicks in.

Slowly working on patching my favorite hoodie. I've come to realize I'm not a fan of the patch being on top of the fabric, so I put the patch below the hole and hem the original fabric. This has forced me to get creative with how I access the other side. Like cutting a hole in a pocket.

*listens to a youtube video about a guy deciding to walk across America and not even making it out of a single state park before needing an uber home* ... maybe I should get out to a trail sometime† †paved trail, on a bike, going a distance I normally can cycle without issue

Staring at my cat Historian and just saying out loud like I'm surprised "there are people who can vote who are younger than this cat"

Love how costco sort of just automatically makes you the person from a math problem. I just bought 500 plastic forks.

A gaggle of like, 20 children, all pressing a walk signal button in rapid succession so the voice it produces chants “Wait. Wait. Wait. Wait. Wait. Wait. Wait-“

Extremely 40 year old hobbies: going to 7 different grocery stores in a rotation to get the best deals or best quality from each one, and comparison shopping with a calculator.

Guy meowing in the hall. He gives ME a weird look for opening my door and looking to see where the fuck the meowing is coming from.

I'm too tired to go to the pharmacy because of my sleeping disorder but they didn't give me one of my meds when I was there last and I'll run out if I don't go so I'm trying to debate with myself whether I should push through and bike there anyway or take an uber or whatever 🫩

The degree to which my quality of life suffers if I don't have my now standard oatmeal for breakfast or lunch is honestly comical. I'm glad it works and I'm the kind of person that can have the same thing daily so often, but it feels like a load bearing coconut situation

My N24 sleep pattern is being more unpredictable lately plus the narcolepsy acting up, my pain is worse, and I just had a migraine. I don’t know how to deal with how many things stand between me and literally any kind of goal.

Thinking about this because my order of rancho gordo beans just shipped - I think it's funny how when you look up people asking what everyone recommends ordering from them, there is no broad agreement. Each one seems to be someone's favorite

People about every randombred gray cat: oh you have a russian blue! Actual russian blue cats: 👽

Being in a lot of pain and not being able to focus on reading or fine motor skills is very boring.

Sometimes my chronic pain feels so nebulous and hard to say how bad it is and I have to look at my own behavior like an outside observer. I've spent my day today either crying or sleeping so probably not great.

Sometimes I realize I'm sitting wearing headphones with nothing playing and just imagining music. Does that happen to you and if it does do you usually play the song for real or something else? I usually play something I haven't memorized like that.

Last month I decided to switch Historian to a different formula of cat food (hoping it'd fix a mild issue she was having) but after slowly transitioning her onto it she just wasn't eating as much as she should

Me: Historian wanted me to watch her eat. She ate five kibbles one at a time, had a drink, and that was it Mom: You're so kind to her Me: Well yeah, if her intake is gonna be like that, I want her to eat the five kibbles!

I discovered some places sell uncooked flour tortillas so when you heat them up at home they’re fresh - I worried I wouldn’t be able to eat them all before they went bad but rest assured that was not a problem because they’re gone now

Funny recurring thing in people reacting to kpop demon hunters songs is them being like “[accurately describes what the song is literally about in the plot] but that’s just a metaphorical reading I don’t know what’s happening in the plot”

My newest oatmeal innovation is I make it so thick that it congeals into a solid mass in a food container in the fridge. I slice pieces off the oatmeal loaf and fry it in a pan.

Having an interest in cooking is mortifying because some people will invite you over for dinner, with you being the one cooking the dinner, like this is a nice favor they are doing you.

Saw a guy taking the full lane on a bicycle on fucking state street. State is basically a highway at this point. Motherfucker gimme some of that bravery you have too much

A posca doodle for @dimespin.bsky.social that I have no idea when I did or what sketchbook it's in! #Art #TraditionalArt

Mom: Do you have some of your coffee in the fridge? Me: Yes? Why Mom: I'm out of creamer for my coffee and we don't have any whipped cream Me: We do have whipped cream- but my coffee is not an alternative to creamer or whipped cream. You'd use it in place of your coffee. Because it's coffee.

One of the previous times I house sat caused me to discover my bed was hurting me to sleep in, as the tingling under my shoulder blades went away - this time I discovered I fixed the problem pretty damn well with carefully situated pillows because aaaa it was so nice to lay in my own bed

4AM when you need to go grocery shopping is about creativity, it's about innovation, it's about wrapping the chicken from a trader joe's butter chicken frozen dinner in a tortilla.
