Getting an early start on March Madness by losing my goddamn mind

I don’t give a fuck about what Zelensky was “wearing.” I care about the fact that my once upon a time beacon of democracy nation kicked him to the curb in favor of an evil despot. That’s what I fucking care about.

At the moment, mansion-sized Asteroid 2024-YR4 has a one-in-fifty chance of hitting Earth in the next eight years. Now might be a bad time to reduce spending on Science. Just sayin’.

The cognitive dissonance of getting up every morning and making coffee and walking the dog and going to meetings and answering emails and wondering what to make for dinner while there is a real live actual coup d’etat happening is BONKERS

Donold is blaming a plane crash that killed 67 people on “DEI” with zero evidence. He is attempting to use racism to deflect from the fact it is HIS fault. He had just removed 100 FAA senior officials. It’s been 11 days and there are 67 bodies in the Potomac in Washington DC because of him.

Once they normalize breaking the rules to go after people who are not citizens of this country, their next phase will be to go after people who are "not the right kind of citizens". By then it will be too late to stop them. Don't let them normalize any of it.

if they want to go back to the 1950s, we’re bringing the cuisine back to the 1950s too. you put me in the kitchen, I will spend 100% of my time in there finding how much horseradish and shrimp I can put in Jello before God personally comes down here to stop me.

Teaching myself crochet. Giving my hands something to do helps the anxiety.

Can we just fast-forward to 2028?

Dosed my dog with the sleepy cheese due to fireworks, and sort of wishing I could also just have the sleepy cheese for the next several years. This is the first time in my life I am dreading a new year, instead of feeling at least a little hopeful.

To really reflect the New Year mood, the Times Square ball should just fall into an abyss.

I'm a bit of a houseplant addict. I love growing them. However, spider mites? Fuck those things. Ugh.

Been trying to teach myself crochet, because giving my hands something to do really seems to help with my ADHD and anxiety. However, it also makes me very aware that these hands, which I've had for 51 years now, are sometimes annoyingly difficult to maneuver. Fingers, how do they work? Ugh!

I hope I'm wrong. I've never hoped harder to be wrong. If the next 4 years shows amazing growth and opportunity and freedom for a better life for everyone in the country, I will eat that crow, happily. But...I don't see how it could happen and I wake up in dread daily. Please let me be wrong.

Saw my first cybertruck in the wild today. It's bigger than I thought. It apparently lives a couple blocks away from me. Call me a sceptic, but I'm not sure that awkward looking thing is going to do real well with the sometimes wild Midwest winters we get here.

As long as I live, I'll never understand getting enjoyment from being deliberately cruel or causing pain to random people, or animals. I used to think most people felt that way. I can admit now that I was wrong, people do seem to enjoy it. But I will still never understand it.

Being new to this platform, I'm confused. I've been looking around and it feels very different from the doom scrolling I've been doing on X for way too long. My blood pressure isn't even skyrocketing. Weird! I think I might like it here.
