Well good news for you, you only have to waitโฆ another year and a half for season 3!! ๐
If anyone working on Severance sees this, I have a pro-tip for you:
You are supposed to wrap a series before all of your actors either retire or die of natural causes.
What do you intend on performing? I need to know in advance so that I can determine whether or not I will be booking yoi
I have cold and so basically i think that means Iโm going to die soon so share this for a chance to win an invite to my funeral!
Homosexuality
(to say nothing of the fact that there are almost 300 lb-ft of torque from a dead stop in this car and i may or may not...take advantage...of that fact)
You know, given itโs the dead of winter in Wisconsin I canโt actually be mad at this
- Refusing to recognize the key in my pocket and setting the alarm off
- Also refusing to start until i did the procedure for a dead key battery
- Refusing to shut off properly once it was started (my personal favorite!)
- No heated seats
What fun. We do love technology.
oh, and extra fun fact: When the 12V battery in a plug-in hybrid starts to die, it does not manifest in a normal way (e.g. the engine just refusing to start bc the high voltage battery handles that), instead it acts like it has dementia, doing super fun things like (continued):
It seems happyโฆ for now.
Me: โwell ok then, what do you have in stock for my sizeโ
(Admittedly very hot) Discount Tire employee: [lists off two expensive brands of tires]
Me: *sigh* I guess put two of the Yokohamas on then.
The tires were only 3 years old and not anywhere near needing to be replaced ๐
Started Saturday planning on spending $200 on new TPMS sensors. Ended the day having spent an additional $500 on two new tires (one of them decided to threaten to explode) and $250 on a 12V battery (thanks, Wisconsin).
Feeling poor rn tbh
Itโs discrimination. Theyโre only making me come in because Iโm gay.
Honestly, Iโm contacting the ACLU on my lunch
So anyway I told my boss that I saw on Fox News this morning that Mondays are actually Fake News, but they made me come in anyway ๐
โI love you very much, but you are the biggest pain my ass has ever felt. And I did nothing but bottom for 3 years!โ
-Me, talking to my cat last night
Indeed.
Me: โoh I guess Iโll just remote start my car for the full 20 minutes on those morningsโ
After two unseasonably warm winters in a row, Mother Nature has decided โnah fuck you though.โ (Temperatures in Freedom Units)
Thank you to everyone for horning down the fort while I was too exhausted to be perceived.
What an adventure it is to navigate the full spectrum of the total loss process in a week because a shop decided to be dishonest and write a kill sheet so they didnโt have to work on your car ๐
All good now

Some people really wonโt eat someone elseโs food at a pot luck but they will absolutely lick a virtual strangerโs asshole within minutes of meeting them. (Itโs me, Iโm some people)
Apple Music is trolling me on my station today ๐ญ
also, during the spring/summer/early fall i will basically never have to buy gas.
New car who dis?
I took a badge downgrade, but feature wise this is on par with or better than the Lexus so I ainโt mad.
oh, and it is a premier of course because i am not going from a lexus to GM's economy shit, so i will get to keep my leather, and i'll get a bose sound system, creature comforts you know.
the numbers are all messed up. idc.
This means that addition to the car loan, (which really isn't much), i will also be paying off some of my other high interest debt.
This could've been much worse.
Anyway, on Monday i should hopefully be the proud owner of a 2017 Chevrolet Volt! ๐ฎโ๐จ
my totaled car JUST got picked up today. on monday i have to go get the new car.
I got a SUPER fair settlement from state farm though (a little over $10K). My car was not in great shape, and my claim handler was quite generous in her value assessment.
