I’ve been thinking about trying fishwife tinned fish for a long while. Finally decided to get some and it was so salty my goodness. It’s good but definitely only a once in a blue moon snack

I need to know what energy I was giving off at the salon for the stylist to ask me if I knew how to wrap my hair lol. Like I haven’t been doing a dubi since I was 10. Anyway I basically have a bob now and I’m already feeling like new lady.

I’m at a salon in Memphis getting my hair done because I am trying to put roots down here instead of doing all my beauty and health stuff in NY. They are cracking me up.

I totally forgot the wave of panic our media & the T*a P*rty spread about ACA. Had people at those town halls FURIOUS & TERRIFIED about… more accessible health care. For themselves. And their families. But that’s America. Get mad & angry about the things that help keep you alive🙃

I found a set of keys in my Lyft and the driver is basically having a panic attack about it. I’ve had to be a therapist talking her down.

I think my tolerance for stores like Nordstrom rack has evaporated. I used to be content to go through everything and search but now I just get overwhelmed and leave

If you wanted to cut waste, fraud, and abuse, you would empower the inspectors general. If you wanted more waste, fraud, and abuse, you would fire them.

My roast came out great. I had grand plans for cornbread but my milk had gone bad. I need to stop buying quarts because I don’t use it fast enough and I hate food waste

I took a nap and now my roast has way longer in the oven than I needed. Trying very hard to not order in

I really love this city. Everyone here has talked about how kind people are and I keep seeing it again& again. I was really sad to leave my plants in Miami and when I came back to this plant shop the owner remembered me and brought me a cutting of her rubber tree. Almost teared up

This little coffee shop is also attached to this plant shop. I feel like I need one of these can cappers in my house.

The Stonewall Inn released a response to the National Parks Service removing the word transgender from the park outside of the Inn. A great reminder that we have to look after each other

every day I think about the comms strategy of the korean opposition party in the wake of the coup and I get so burningly resentful that other countries have legislators who are awake

Do not mess with librarians. They let complete strangers borrow their books. For a living. Even the hardcovers. They are so much stronger than you know.

Went to a bookstore called novel. and they have a bar and restaurant and a great selection of books. I had to force myself to leave. I’m so excited to be a regular there!

I always scoff when people try to claim calling for justice for Palestine is "antisemitic" when in reality Jewish leaders firm in their faith & Jewish identities proudly and courageously stand up for justice for Palestine BECAUSE THEY KNOW ITS THE RIGHT & MORAL THING TO DO

Do Americans want safe food? Which Departments are responsible for food safety? USDA HHS -> FDA and CDC Commerce -> NOAA (fisheries) If one Department is disabled, we don’t have safe food Enjoy your dinner 🍲
