Yes, Iā€™m that one, if you know me from other online. The ecologist one. Opinions are my own & definitely do not reflect those of my workplace. Given the bad faith actors on here, unless I know you or we share a mutual, I will probably block you. Sorry.

I think @katanaangel.bsky.social needs to see this given that Hawkeye spirited himself to some hideyhole for a while this weekend

yeah, I'm not getting effing surgery just to be "small and perky" (when the rest of me very much is not)

feeling very very doomy and sad today and can't think of any way of consoling myself šŸ˜¢

Jesus wept.

I think an online (etsy) yarn sell may have taken my money and run. oh well. Many people who are dishonest in this world. I'll wait a few more days (I think I have like a week before the chargeback period ends) and do something but I'm NOT happy

a three hour webinar is not a way to reduce "loneliness and anxiety" on college campuses. and I am betting it's all about "here's what YOU can do to help THE STUDENTS," never acknowledging that faculty might be lonesome and anxious. it's always always "do more for others" never "can we help YOU?"

EVERYTHING is making me sad today maybe I do the little bit of residual work I have to do, run the one errand I need to run, and then go home and go to bed :(

honestly if my choice were to be a sex slave to some chud or to die, I'll take dying, thanks. Not that a single them of them would want my 56-year-old, pasty, white ass, so I'd die anyway

Unsurprising: elephants are better than people: www.theguardian.com/world/2025/a...

I wouldn't know whether to call a repair person or a priest if mine were making "unholy" noises

so we're all gonna belong to Russia eventually, I guess. Sucks. really sucks. I hope they put me to work on a farm instead of in a mine.

still very much feeling like I'd like to put my head down and cry at least I don't feel like I'm going to throw up any longer. But the people in charge of dealing with the problem I reported haven't gotten back to me yet. Possible they're investigating...

this thread made it awful dusty in here all of a sudden I hope my work leaves some kind of good legacy šŸ˜­

"Facts all come with points of view. Facts don't do what I want them to"

"Prying open the lid of the slap-crate" is SO good, though

Welcome to Bluesky šŸ’™šŸ¦‹

this is another thing filling me with despair today. Who knows who's got our data now and what they're going to do to us with it?

it's always That Kind of guy who tries to explain a woman's expertise to her šŸ‘æ

again having big "why did I survive 2020" feelings, like, what is there in the future for me besides even more misery?

why is doing the right thing so hard? this seems like a flaw in how the universe is set up. If I were God I'd just make it easy to do the right thing and make doing the wrong thing hurt a lot, and that hurt be IMMEDIATE

Maybe I just do put my head down on my desk and cry for a bit, I feel very scraped-raw this morning by everything going on
