Oof these sewing related prices are getting out of control Just saved myself $350 bucks doing a full service on my own sewing machine. Like I get it, it’s a skill and it takes time.. but yikes on bikes! Over $300!?! Maybe this is my new job… cause choices are slim out here in the south end

I could clean my house and do the 100 chores that are piling up Or… I could research a new business idea, create spreadsheets with all the details, estimate expenses, try to get an idea of how to get market research for my area on the subject My brain is broken cause the second one is easier…

Know what’s cool about parenting your neurodivergent kid when your ND too? You don’t have to put them through shit they hate! 8th grade promotion is kinda bs.. it’s crowded, loud, etc, and you don’t even get a diploma/degree You know what’s a cooler way to commemorate? Sushi We went to sushi :)

Are presents for 8th grade promotion a thing?? (I ask desperately as the ceremony is tonight and the guidelines I just read have lots of notes about appropriate gifts at the event…)

For balance, I am embarrassingly excited there’s a second season this fall of my latest comfort anime, Campfire Cooking in Another World with my Absurd Skill The name alone makes me love it, so long and silly

Anyone else out there who watched the first season of Fubar? And then tried the second season?? Cause I need to have the “Huh? What happened there?” conversation with someone Like that was a noticeable change right?? It’s got a very different feel.. I think I’m sadly tapping out 1.5 episodes in

I keep my stuff off here but school’s still in session here in Seattle, and it’s a rough finish These kids and families are terrified and it makes me so fucking angry and sick and just… But we keep going, we keep looking out for each other. Turning that rage into motivation and support

The Mexican flag for Chicanos is about expressing pride in a cultural identity that racists would rather they abandoned and felt shameful about. If you think waving a Mexican flag in Los Angeles means "I am expressing allegiance to the government of a foreign nation" please stop talking

Know what felt good today? Quick grocery stop with youngest. She spots some halibut cheeks, and asks what are those?Unlocked an old memory, they were my favorite when I worked in the hot kitchen at a sushi place Grabbed a few and made her a pre dinner snack, she is totally in love with them now :)

How do you get back in after being unemployed for a long time? I worked as an SDET before, but I am struggling with how to even get back in the game. Long time off work (by choice, at first…), but now it’s been years, I’m in a new city where I don’t have the same professional contacts…
