Migraine has morphed into a hell of a toothache. Feeling like I just can’t win. But at least we’ve recovered financially to where the scales have balanced toward preventative care being less of a long-term financial risk. (So, not recovered exactly but at least we can try to avoid a catastrophe.)

Pulled out my old denim jacket that held a ton of enamel pins and was shocked it had been so long since I wore it there were several HP pins. All of those, straight into the bin. No consideration. Not freecycling them. TRASH. Fuck the entire IP.

Though tbh I think my absolute obsession for Kimber was half “probably nascent bisexual” and half want to be her because she was so flipping cool.

I still miss my floof.

I love this book so much! It’s not my fave Moore book except they’re all kind of my faves so it sort of is?? Might be just the vibe I’m looking for as I’m starting a new book today…

I can't emphasize enough that the most important thing journalists can do right now is publish exactly this kind of article

No, really guys. THIS was the thing that crossed the line and now he’s going to get his comeuppance. 🙄

Reminders: "Concentration camps" aren't the same as "extermination camps." Both were/are horrific. Most Nazi camps were *outside Germany*, away from the eyes of German citizens. Those trains? Were to, uh, deport the category of people whose lives were deemed unimportant. Never again is now.

Crying in class, or at least desperately trying not to before I managed to escape to the restroom. Today’s off to a banging start.

It is very rude for The Pitt to be done making episodes for now.

Landed in an antique mall today that turned out to be SUPER MAGA and and SUPER NAZI (whoops) so on the way out of the parking lot we did a slow roll through with "The Day the Nazi Died" by Chumbawumba playing and I'm sure nobody who cared heard it or understood but it was a cleansing moment.

A friend is treating us to an early dinner of rotary sushi and I cannot wait! I'm a bit socially anxious because we've only really talked on social and seen each other at clubs on dance nights, but it's going to be nice, I think.

Yesterday was sibling day, apparently, which reminds me to tell you that it’s ok to stop talking to your sibling even if it makes your mom sad.

I was scrolling for the doom and then I found the doom…and heaven knows I’m miserable now

I’m starting to think having 20+ years of experience is actually HURTING my job search. It’s incredibly discouraging.

My brain: “the final season of Handmaid’s Tale is started, didn’t you want to start watching that again?” So I started again and HAY-SOOS CRISCO this hits different than it did even in the first term.

It’s kind of ironically fitting that the facts over feelings party is going to destroy the entire economy because they don’t want to make a weird old guy feel sad by telling him that everything he’s saying is cuckoo bananas

This is extremely upsetting and I am upset.

Everybody romanticizing about the heyday of American manufacturing needs to carefully listen to one (1) Bruce Springsteen song.

Every single person who would be “happy to pay a little more” for something made in America is going to complain about the price of everything until the end of time and completely balk at the thought of them or their loved ones doing factory work.

I can’t stop thinking about “only the weak will fail”.

I have already canceled four classes this semester due to health issues and Gimli’s death. I haven’t been able to keep food down all day. I have to drive to Milwaukee so I can teach my 9am class. I don’t know what to do.

Grateful for a couple days of feeling maybe everything isn’t as bad as it seems but I feel physically like garbage today and not any better emotionally.

Friends, I know you're excited to try protesting, but under no circumstances should you ever sign up to attend one. I'm suspicious of any org asking people to put their name on a list that is easily accessible via warrant or may even be public. You can just show up day of.
