The automation paradox (that invariably automation ends up making more work in a variety of ways) is a thing. Which is why it's best practices for the people actually doing the work to have a say in how automation technologies are deployed in their workplaces, which can only be done collectively.
Thinking about watching OUAT. My options are pretty limited with the baby, but that should work.
I just… What are we doing? What the fuck is wrong with these people.
"Sloppelganger" is one for the ages
$3125 to go! Thank you all for all the support, for sharing, for the kind and caring comments. It all helps so much more than I can articulate.
At the beginning of March, still looking for housing with less and less time to find it, being sick seems to be more and more expensive all the time.

Maybe it's just because he turns 25 next month. The day before B turns 1. That weekend is gonna be a roller coaster for me and I'm already bracing for it.
Why tonight, I have no idea. But here we are.
I've been crying for 2hrs straight over something I've spent almost 25 years convincing myself was for the best. It was not, my oldest and I both deserved so much better than we got, and my sister can rot in hell. Her obituary will make me almost as happy as the one we're all waiting for.

My list so far is looking like about $300. Which is not bad, all things considered, but is definitely more than I have to spare.
Food and water, obviously, but powering fans is the #1 priority.
Starting to think about doomsday prepping for this summer. It's looking like it's going to be a really bad one. We live in the desert, so tbh this plan is mostly about cooling the apartment.
I do not care about the regrets of Trump supporters who sat through that first administration and decided it was smart to do it all over again anyway and only now are feeling the strain.
Other people were already burning, publicly, and you looked away.
Fuck your feelings and fuck you.
This is why there are people out there saying shit like "I'm happy to pay for this war as long as we get better footage next time."
I've been trying to think of some witty thing to say here.
The layoffs will continue until morale improves? Is that anything?

The trick is to buy something bed shaped that is not intended for the cat. Once they realize it's for someone else, they'll never leave it alone.
Source: I have a bassinet and three changing pads obviously bought for the baby but now they are cat beds.
I absolutely wrecked my back last night, trying to clean the tub so I could take a bath. Which was supposed to make my back feel better. I am angy.
I mean, am I always in a great mood these days? No. Am I eating the right things and drinking enough water? Also no. But am I *financially* secure and emotionally stable now that I'm in my forties? Again, that's a big no but listen...
Fell asleep (not too late after I meant to, so yay that!), had weird dreams (felt like at least three of them because of location and plot changes), woke up and looked at the clock, and I was only asleep for 30mins. I'm sure that's totally normal, nothing to see here
There were dancers at the bar I was at who were TWENTY-SEVEN and talking about retiring because no one wanted to look at them anymore.
I've seen a somewhat encouraging number of people actually talking about this lately.
I've pretty much been aware of it since I was an 18yo stripper, but not everyone had that lovely introduction to the subject.
My anxiety has anxiety.
btw about that pixar thing, the reason why these people think having a conversation about gay people with kids is difficult is because they don't know a way to say to their kid "gay people are normal but you are not allowed to be one" without sounding like a bigot (there is a reason for that)
musician Gary Numan, born March 8, 1958, aged 68
actor Gary Oldman, born March 21, 1958, aged 67
Happy Gary Retrograde everyone!
The next two weeks are the only two weeks out of the year when Gary Numan is older than Gary Oldman
I'm pretty sure I've gotten more sleep this weekend than I did all week.
He crawls so freaking fast. You blink and he's on the other side of the room getting into something he shouldn't.
The correct answer would actually be "stop moving long enough to actually recover," but we live in a capitalist hellscape and also I'm the mom of a 10mo, so that's not happening.
