I'm glad that America is doing real classic end of empire stuff. A king who is visibly losing his mind declaring a war based on a dream he had. Greedy courtiers feuding over access to the treasury. Some looks are timeless.

"would you please put that in writing" is how you pull off insubordination without actually being insubordinate. Very useful when you are getting sketchy (whatever 'sketchy' might mean) instructions from someone who might not want to take responsibility for it later. signed, a former union steward.

If you have students who are trans no you don’t. If you have students of color who may be affected by ICE no you don’t. If anyone asks you gender or racial the makeup of your class you don’t have to tell them. Protect your class and protect your students by not complying in advance. They trust you.

took a Great Dane claw to the face (she was just playing and I had my face in the wrong place) so I’m now walking around looking like a rogue

i do enjoy a historical romance but it really makes me laugh when it’s like: she’s not like other girls. She just accidentally shot my manservant while hunting and also her EYES

i guess the avocado, cheese, bbq chip, olive, mustard sandwich was not the most nutritious thing I could eat for lunch, but I did enjoy it

i think I need to do some core exercises. I had a weighted blanket and a cat on me this morning and when I tried to get up you should have seen me ineffectually flopping around like salmon on land until I finally decided I was just a prisoner until the cat moved

Jin wearing a Hilton Head Island tshirt in the latest episode of Run Jin had me like ??? It’s so wild seeing a celebrity in Korea wearing a shirt from a beach that is a couple hours away from me

ooof you guys I really enjoy playing with kids, and hearing the thoughts in their heads, and watching them grow and change but I’m so glad I’m child-free. Being an aunt-only was definitely the right choice

strong flavors help me (mostly) stave off airsickness and they also really set the mood for my travel that day. Going it was hot tamale candy and cheddar cheez-its. Coming back it’s dried pineapple/oranges/kiwi fruits and soft Australian licorice

according to my Instagram memories now is about when I take a moody new years selfie but this year I’ve caught the toddler’s illness and my nose is a constant stream of drippy goop, which I guess in and of itself is a mood

just watched a man be crushed that his axe bodyspray was too big to go through airport security. He was in fact so viscerally wilted about it that the tsa agent suggested he go back out of security and spray some on himself before coming back through. Hope his day gets better.

the airport announcing that the local time is 12:30 when my phone very clearly says it’s 12:37 is hopefully as close as I get to the twilight zone today

wouldn’t want to do it too often but Christmas by myself was gorgeous. I played Lana Del Rey and called it Christmas music. I ate like a chipmunk. I read. I payed my car tax, which I’ve been meaning to get to all month long so this is a weight off my shoulders. Definitely in my Krampus era
