We are arms dealers to terrorists.

I live in a lovely place that is, unfortunately, a Mecca for every brand of woo-fuck bullshit known to humanity, and some that have yet to be grifted into existence. Today somebody asked how to find a reflexologist. Jesus, as the man says, Haploid Christ.

Iguana see how well he drives.

I did this today.

I enjoy living in a country that elected a woman who makes 47 look like the mouth-breather he is. 🇲🇽

NEW: Musk’s OPM claims the collective bargaining agreements governing remote work are null and void in the latest OPM Memo 1/

Cry me a river. Every single issue is a self-inflicted wound, and deserved. Let's keep reducing the account numbers and bleed the company dry.

Last week, for reasons that now escape me, I volunteered to take my mother-in-law to a birthday party at a local beach bar tonight. Three hours of people I barely know walking up and trying to hug me, expecting small talk, etc. WTF.

It's damn telling how fast corporate America quit diversity. Seems like those marginalized people who've been telling us about racism, sexism, bigotry, bias, and exclusion might have been right all along.

Good morning! There's a lot of worry today - #ignoreguration anyone? - but my anxiety levels were sky high due to two items on my to-do list. I've already done them. Proud of myself! Now I can proceed to my "the world is ending" panic attack at a more leisurely pace. #neurospicy

Me: "I hate it when people are mindlessly crude in public." Also me: *hands husband the last end piece of a baguette* "Wanna eat my butt?" I'm very mindful when it comes to public crudity. 😏

Zuck's new Director of Masculine Energy.

Oh, look. Decent people doing something kind. No wonder Cult 45 hates México. Simple kindness must seem so foreign and incomprehensible to them.

A friend just told me this joke, and I love it.

But being this is a Skywalker, the most powerful Jedi in the galaxy and will Force-choke your head clean off, you've gotta ask yourself a question: "Do I feel Luke-y?" Well, do ya, punk?

NEW: Danish news outlet DR reports that sources tell them "Trump's people 'bribed' homeless and socially disadvantaged people with hotel dinners to play Trump supporters" during Don Jr's visit to Greenland.

Good morning! Today, you don't have to. You don't have to care for people who don't care for you. You don't have to hurt yourself to please others. You don't have to wreck yourself trying to fix things you didn't break. YOU DON'T HAVE TO.

Good morning! Fuck Donald Trump and everyone who enables him. Everybody else have a lovely day!

Today, I accidentally accomplished things. Tomorrow I will try harder to accomplish nothing. Except for beating the pants off @kixy1.bsky.social at cards. Life goals, y'all.

Today did not go as planned. Tomorrow isn't shaping up to be any more peaceful. Retirement is really busy.

Good morning! My fitbit thinks I'm dead. The heart rate monitor stopped working some time last night, leaving me with the fitness tracker equivalent of a flatline. Having really enjoyed Flatliners, gotta say I'm disappointed by the lack of visions and closure from past trauma. 🤷‍♀️

Good night, Blues. If you're feeling bleak, you could always try watching Squid Game! It makes the real world feel a little friendlier. 😏

This morning, for the first time in months, the sun didn't hurt my skin when I walked the dog. That's a very positive thing! #Autoimmune

Good morning! My condo smells like freshly baked banana bread. With chocolate chips. There are worse options.

You never know what you'll see on a walk. Today it was a cute li'l danger noodle. Yesterday I saw a band of 26 coatimundi. Even if I don't see any fun critters, the walking reduces anxiety. Give it a try - what will you see? G'night, friendos.

Of the two, Cassandra is the better person.

When referring to the Trump/Musk presidency, are you going with Trusk as your portmanteau? Or do you prefer Mump? I'm leaning toward Mump, myself. It implies the idea that we could have avoided the outbreak.

Good morning! Is it a beautiful day to go out and engage with the world? Or a beautiful day to stay the fuck home and not deal with the rest of humanity? Either way.

I hope you didn't immolate a brisket today! (This message inspired by my MIL's brisket, placed in the oven at 10 am today, and forgotten when she left for four hours to play canasta. We had burgers for dinner.)

Good morning! It's World Introvert Day. We're here, we're uncomfortable, and we want to go home. Don't settle for rookie numbers, my lovelies, shun humanity until you feel like dealing with them again.

Good night, y'all. I hope you had at least one moment of undiluted joy today. A shared smile, puppy kisses, maybe you slaughtered some morally questionable pixels in your favorite video game - joy is where you find it. Hope you found some.

Good morning! The world may feel like it's on fire and sliding into an open sewer - that's how it feels to me, anyway - but we can all still choose to be kind to those who need our kindness. Will it save the world? Fuck if I know, but it can't hurt. Let's go.
