The thing about being chronically ill is that sometimes I’m like, “I am so badass for being able to handle pain that would send a normal person into orbit,” and other times my body humbles me by sending its 5th fever of the week and making me feel like I should be carried to the garden one last time

If you see someone stealing food, no you fuckin didn't.

Me waiting for an important update via email: They said it would take somewhere between 1 hour and 5 days. My partner: How long has it been so far? Me pacing around: 19 minutes. . .

If you’re not familiar with this case, Pitchford did not kill anyone. The actual killer got 20 years. Pitchford got the death sentence.

Every live Gracie Abrams performance is the best thing I’ve ever seen

The phrase “what they don’t know won’t hurt them,” actually doesn’t apply to me because my anxiety will just fill in the blanks with stuff that’s wayyyyy worse 😂

Me trying to keep a flare up at bay: Okay, the only thing you need to do today is pick out an outfit for your interview on Tuesday. Also me: It would be SO much easier to go through clothes if you take everything out of your closet and purge and organize the whole thing first!

Media stop pestering Jack about Taylor’s wedding when he is promoting his own fucking art challenge

25,276 gems later, I have completed my very first diamond art project!

In honor of Celiac Disease awareness month, how about companies stop charging astronomical prices for very small, and less good quantities of our medically necessary food?

Absolute ✨cinema✨

The thunderstorm we’re getting right now is absolutely exquisite, 10/10 no notes

Sometimes I hear a song and immediately see choreography in my head and think, “God, this would make an incredible lyrical solo.” But I’m 35, chronically ill, and retired from dance 18 years ago 😂

If Spotify Wrapped came out today, there’s a non-zero chance that Hit The Wall is already my top listened to song of the year. I’m SO fine, very chill, super stable. P.S. This album is gonna wreeeeckkk me and I can’t wait

Aragon, Boleyn, Seymour, Cleves, Howard, Parr

God, Gracie was everything I needed tonight

The phlebotomist drawing my rheumatology labs today, called me “sweet, brave girl” and told me to “take a biiiiiig breath and breathe through the tiny pinch!” Ma’am, I’m chronically ill. I breathe through the pain every day. I do my own med injections at home. I’m not upset about this blood draw.

*American Cars plays* Me: Hahahahahaimgonnagolayinthestreethahahahahaha

Between Gracie and Olivia, this summer is going to be an absolute banger for music and I cannot overstate how much this is going to fix me

Sending you so much love, no matter what today looks like for you 🖤

You’re gonna want to read this one!

I’m devastated that Stumble got cancelled. It was hilarious and wholesome and so well written. The perfect little show and it deserved AT LEAST one more season. I need another network to pick it up

Hearing TikTok songs from 2020 feels like a fever dream

OH LORD SAVE ME MY DRUG IS MY BABY I’LL BE USING FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE

Sometimes I kinda can’t believe that I’m lucky enough to exist at the same time as Reputation

It is SO worth your time to read this!

Gracie announcing a new song coming May 14th might be the only thing keeping me on the rails right now lmao I need this album so bad

Remember in Toy Story when Woody says, “There’s a snake in my boot?” 🐍 Idk

The sky outside my house right now. Apparently she heard about the countdown and came dressed for the occasion.

My Boy Only Breaks His Favorite Toy Story 5

HELLO WDYM COUNTDOWN

Damn, Noah Kahan’s new album is so incredibly good

“I dissent because Congress elected otherwise. I dissent because the Court betrays its duty to faithfully implement the great statute Congress wrote. I dissent because the Court’s decision will set back the foundational right Congress granted of racial equality in electoral opportunity. I dissent.”

The timing of all of this is just so ✨interesting✨

I could have sworn Haribo gummy bears were gluten free so I got a bag at the store today and before eating them I checked the label out of habit and it says “may contain wheat” I’m so sad

hope she’s having a good day 💖

This is the game republicans wanted to play. So let’s fucking play.

The way we currently have fresh snow on the ground but it’s going to be almost 90 degrees on Wednesday lmao

Me 3 days ago: I should only make a small batch of cookies, I don’t need to eat a big batch this week Me now when I’m on my last cookie: Wtf why didn’t you make a bigger batch of cookies

Two years of loving you today 🤍

What if I roll the stone away? They’re gonna crucify me anyway. What if the way you hold me is actually what’s holy?

Minnesota lost about 6,100 jobs over the month — double the rate of decline seen nationally. State officials say federal immigration enforcement actions likely played a significant role.

I just had one of those little moments where I caught myself handling something better than I used to and I’m emo about recognizing the growth 🥹

Sometimes I think about how in 9th grade, I was chosen by my classmates to play the role of Tom Robinson’s attorney in our To Kill A Mockingbird mock trial, and if he was found not guilty, the entire class would get an A on the final. Anyway, we won and it might be my greatest accomplishment tbh

STATE CONSTITUTIONS MATTER

Every chronically ill person I know both pushes themself too hard and also thinks they’re not doing enough.

Me to myself knowing I’m getting a tax return just in time for American Girl to re-release the historical dolls: I am 35. I do not need to buy a Felicity or Samantha doll. I am 35. I do not need to buy a Felicity or Samantha doll. I am 35. I do not need to buy a Felicity or Samantha doll.

Job searching is brutal and the rejection emails always sting more than I’d like, but I just keep telling myself, “It wasn’t my turn to win today but, someone else is feeling a whole lot of joy and excitement and relief and I’m so happy for them. It is going to happen for me one of these days, too.”
