My mom died last week, and that sucks. I did not expect to be out of parents in my 30s.

I’ve been in North Carolina for thirty seconds and I think I just broke the polite young man working at a fish and chips shop by asking him what a hush puppy is.

As it turns out, I *am* pale enough to sunburn through a UPF 50 shirt (+ a layer of sunscreen).

if the united states ever has even a hope of recovering we have to destroy the idea of american individualism. "they don't owe you anything" we owe each other everything actually

In the last few weeks, I’ve completely unraveled several seemingly simple product features by just asking questions. Ask me to document something at your own risk.

I don’t think jokes about someone’s disease are funny. This is a post about Pete Hegseth, who is deeply unqualified for *any* job and is easy to make fun of for an endless list of valid reasons, and his alcoholism.

Hey QQ — is it possible to write your neighbor a letter asking them to stop throwing bottles of human urine into your herb garden that sounds sincerely polite and not wildly sarcastic (and furious)?

Friendly reminder that you absolutely should not look at your 401(k) or net worth right now* 😵‍💫. *Unless you voted for the orange guy. If you voted for him, then you’re required to look at your finances and think about what you’ve done. For shame.

'Complete the set,' like I’m coordinating textiles in a living room. ✨The DayQuil Collection✨

Just shopping for guillotine earrings, like one does.

TurboTax, roasting me annually since 2010.

Maintaining some sense of sanity by cranking out steps on my walking pad while listening to a Bluey Sleep playlist.

Huge day for flus and poxes. Big win.

I can’t believe the Supreme Court said the president was above the law and now the president is acting like he’s above the law.

Petition to replace the Pledge of Allegiance with the Girl Scout Law. Open to removing the ‘respect authority’ line.

Tesla paid $0 in federal income tax last year. 2022: $0 2021: $0 2020: $0 2019: $0 2018: $0 Tesla reported $6.7 billion in profit in those years.

So help me, if Betty Suarez ends up with Matt Hartley....

One thing I really like about myself is that I have no idea what Elon Musk’s voice sounds like.

I 'accidentally' checked out 71 hours worth of audiobooks. Their due dates range from 12–21 days from now. Pray for me.

Okay you first.

No OSHA, no worky. 💁🏼‍♀️

Feature idea: An Etsy ideology filter. Please stop making me sift through a seller's entire collection to make sure there aren't pro-gun t-shirts before I buy a kitten Crocs charm.

I love public transit.

Imagining a world where all media references to Trump introduced him as ‘President Trump, a convicted felon who was also found liable for sexual abuse.’ I feel like we could get @vanityfair.com and @teenvogue.com on board; who else?

It just seems like one person shouldn't be able to dismantle that much government in nine days, you know?

Another day of trying to get engineers to understand that I am not, in fact, an engineer myself. For the love of god, eli5.

In Extremely Caitlin news, I’m getting a blister from my new vacuum cleaner.

I’m just a girl, taking her afternoon ibuprofen, asking someone to remind me not to wash it down with bubbly water.
