Home from hometown trip where half of it was spent in the hospital alternating between my grammie and dad. But ate some nostalgia food. Had good times with sister. Wild ass weekend.
I don't even know what to think about the last 24 hours
Thought I was being genuinely flirted with. Turns out it was just for fun. Cool.
Rotating this fresh blorbo to keep my mind busy from Everything. He's a very good blorbo.
Been having so much going on in my head that it's been easier the last few days to just let fan obsession take over so I don't have to feel scared or worried. Coping unhealthily.
Me and the idiots have been watching murderbot and it's been fun. Probably finish it on Sunday. Enjoying it.
Usually if I'm contemplating dating apps it's because I'm trying to distract myself from someone in particular. Anyway I don't think I'll try feeld but if I wanted to try again it might be the way to go.
I'm sick but not sick enough to justify taking sick days so I'm just miserable instead. I got home and straight into bed. Ugh capitalism
We watched Sundown: The Vampire in Retreat tonight and I'm genuinely surprised I'd never seen it let alone heard of it. It totally seems like something my parents would be in to. It was great, btw, camp horror spaghetti western
Honestly I got weepy over the owl musical interlude, because that is resistance: love, community, and joy in the face of hate, isolation, and anger. We are not alone. We were never alone. Love and help your neighbors, show them we are together and we are strong.
Yeah like I'm deeply unhappy with a lot of stuff but I still am determined to find love and joy and whimsy because without that why would I fight? And I don't think I have the tools to help you if you refuse to keep kindness and love in your heart.
I liked it here because it was relaxed and there was a solid separation of work and personal, and now both of those are gone.
So not only did I get an on record warning for criticizing the dress code changes, I just got told today that I will be fired for being "unwilling to perform duties" if I refuse to download a work related app to my personal device because they will not issue work equipment or offer alternatives.

I made three appointments today. Maybe the mania feeling is good (this is probably the mania feeling talking)
I flew very close to the sun (uninhibited manic behavior and horny on main and I'm not embarrassed but I am feeling "oh I sure did say that")
I keep sorta crying over fictional boys being unconditionally loved by their parents.
This week is a fuck.

In solidarity with today's ICE OUT OF MINNESOTA blackout, MinnMax is donating $1 to the Immigrant Law Center of Minnesota for every share of this Bluesky post for the next hour.
I am strong and I am not going to sub-tweet equivalent about a thing.
You never stopped being someone I wanted, I was just a coward. Flighty and self absorbed. Unable to be kind.
All this to say: acne has been so bad!!! But I started using stridex pads (full strength) and they work super well. I still get the acne but it clears up and heals much faster, meaning also I have less chance to pick at it. Honest recommendation if you know anyone who might want it!
So I'll be 37 this year. My progesterone implant is now 6 years old (so 3 years out of date). My sis has PCOS, and my mom started hormone therapy for perimenopause at 35. My body is a hormonal chaos. And I'm considering if I wanna start T (still weighing my options and figuring out my goals on that)
I did computational solid mechanics but I had peers doing solid-liquid interactions and they used a software called OpenFOAM, in case this is useful information at all. I could also point you to some researchers in that topic if you'd like. Also now I am Extremely Intrigued!! Love a nerd!
I'm also finding myself again after a very rough few years. Life is weird.
It wasn't really intentional but I've been reconnecting with people I lost touch with in grief and it's like. Refreshing. I miss some of these folks!!
Had my ~monthly 8am Saturday shift so of course went to the diner after. Had a breakfast burger and then a slice of chocolate, cookie dough, marshmallow fluff cake. Came home and immediately zonked out on the couch for like 4 hrs.
Sometimes tbh the heated rivalry mass psychosis is the bits of fraying twine holding me together
Alt text, because one would think folks would want news about a general strike to go as far as it can.
