In other news, I discovered diamond painting! It’s fun! I’m working on an 8x10 Starry Night. A nice de-stresser and escape from the news and YouTube.

Sooooo apparently COVID wasn’t enough: now I have an infected tooth! I need to start a bingo card because srsly. (I have an emergency dentist appt on Monday, so I’ll probably survive.) I need to make friends with people who can write prescriptions. One bottle of Amoxicillin, plz! 🫠💩

I like to think of myself as an onion. Peel back the many layers and deep down inside you’ll find a smaller, more anxious onion

How am I STILL so sick? I tested positive last Tuesday and have been MISERABLE since then! Maybe this year’s COVID vaccine was just a placebo. 😭💩

It finally got me. Ugh. (I’m actually feeling okay so far, just like I’m getting a chest cold. Hopefully the vaccine I got last September will keep it from getting too bad.) #covid

Unfollowing a bunch of people on Bluesky because I can't handle politics. If I'm not following you anymore, it's because my mental health is precarious right now, and it's either change the information I'm fed or stop using Bluesky completely. :/

Stayed awake half the night because I made myself stop reading Hyperion by Dan Simmons at the wrong time, and my brain kept coming up with what’s going to happen next. REALLY looking forward to finding out what actually happens today! #booksky

Fun how all the platforms get less fun, less interesting, and less usable as they get more right-wing and more dedicated to sucking up as much of our time and scamming us as much as possible.

Hands down the best article on leaving Twitter. Worth a lot more than the time it takes to read it lol.

Happy Friday! Currently reading (and enjoying!) Outline by Rachel Cusk, doing my best to ignore the world’s current dumpster fire. Looking forward to the weekend, where I’ll be doing the same thing, minus work. #booksky #literarysky

It’s fun trying to find that line between “I need to remain vigilant of the horrors afoot” and also “oh no my heart is racing and my jaw is making weird creaky sounds and I can taste pennies.”

I understand that ChatGPT is down and fortunately this is not a problem for me as I have spent considerable time developing a local language model that I am able to run autonomously, fueled by Coke Zero and snacks

I guess I need to lean back out of politics on Bluesky. It's so nice to be able to commiserate with other OUTRAGED people here, but I also think it might be ruining what little mental health I still have.

Seriously considering picking up a bottle of wine on my way home, then settling in under a quilt (hopefully with dogs) and a paper book and doing my best to ignore the world until bedtime. Am I the only person having a TERRIBLE time dealing with what's going on in the US?

Bluesky has been flooded with automated reply bots - they'll offer a sort of confrontational opinion as a reply. They're pretty convincing and we all need to train ourselves to not reflexively reply to all responses until we check Dead giveaway is new acct, few followers + original posts
