No but seriouslyā€¦ did you get it?

The crappy thing about false Spring is that my body eagerly welcomes the Spring and starts waking up and then, it goes through the same process for like a week of below freezing temps. So my sinuses and lungs have to reorient themselves. šŸ˜¢ If Iā€™m quiet, thatā€™s why.

I woke up not wanting to do much of anything today. And just wanted to be quiet and had to push myself to get some laundry started. Just one of those kind of days.

wearing sunglasses inside and following an event where he at times had a hard time speaking coherently, Elon Musk walks off the CPAC stage waving around a chain saw. this is the guy currently running our government. Congrats, America!

Woke up with Emmie screaming over an hour and a half ago. I think the restlessness has finally abated. Not going to be much good today. Would you at least tell me if you got my earlier message?

You might want to check your requests.

Are you sure??

Tomorrow. (Wednesday.) I promise. Iā€™m nervous, but I promise.

I recall saying it was a question to think about for a few daysā€¦ There seems to still be a question about a delivery method on the tableā€¦ and a proposal and no seeming confirmation.

One of the few ways I can think to get you that info is to have Bowie slide in the DMs of the place he wants a job at with his resume. Would that work?

In my life I will *NEVER* understand how US Farmers could choose the side who literally have wanted to do nothing more than take migrant labor away from them because ā€œillegalā€ immigration is a distraction tool of the wealthy.

Yeah, that's exactly what this anti DEI purge is all about. Censoring minorities and expelling trans people out of public life.

A source stationed in Germany has sent me emails showing the principal at a Department of Defense school, Weisbaden Middle, telling teachers they can no longer allow books to be checked out until someone has reviewed them for compliance with Trumpā€™s anti-trans, anti-diversity ex orders.

Learning to listen to my body is the greatest gift therapy has given me this past year. Example: I ate something I wasnā€™t supposed to, which is normally okay, but the drastic weather change and not having my humidifier on last night have made the problem worse. šŸŖ”

Last one tonight and a question to think about for a few daysā€¦ If you had my number, would you call?

I always get this stuff wrongā€¦ and then it backfires and hurts. And then it makes me question everythingā€¦ and maybe Iā€™m wrong now and Iā€™m scared.

My birthday at sunrise? Unless you desire sooner.

Knowing now has to count for something, though? šŸ„¹šŸ˜˜ā™„ļø

Since heā€™s quoting Napoleon, is he confirming heā€™s really smaller šŸ† than the average man?

I think of the panoply of soi-disant conservatives, libertarians, and independent thinkers, the chattering-class warriors who lectured us for years about ā€œvirtueā€ or ā€œhonorā€ or ā€œlibertyā€ or ā€œfreedomā€ and who now at best quietly assent and at worst gleefully endorse this repulsive tinpot tyrant.

If you think šŸŠšŸ¤”ā€™s quote is Napoleon (it is) or want to seemingly disprove it (no idea why), you should search for the translation in the language Napoleon spoke. (French.)

the single most un-american and anti-constitutional statement ever uttered by an american president

Gonna keep saying it: Trump and Musk are screwing Ag interests big and small, every which way. And I strongly suspect that the fruits of these maneuvers will be what finally wakes the regular public to the scale of the crisis they've created www.nytimes.com/2025/02/13/u...

My power went out about 45 minutes ago. This is not boding well for this upcoming week. šŸ„¹

I wish everyone a very happy ā€œcall the girl and tell her how you feelā€ day.

You have no idea how scared I get every fucking day.

Iā€™ve been starving all afternoon / evening long. Iā€™ve had: I am starving. Iā€™ve had: A bowl of chicken and dumpling soup 12 mini wontons from Costco A whole box of deli crackers - those big circular ones About half a container of Treeline artisan cheese And now, 12 soup dumplings from Costco

Oh *my* dear kind gentle manā€¦ šŸ˜˜šŸ˜˜šŸ˜˜

Anyhow, Iā€™m a smidge preoccupied. In case you were wondering.

Spending the next few days (week and a half-ish?) setting up my blog (finally) because I am coming out from imposter syndrome, to an extent. At least on the design of the siteā€¦ Still not sure my writing is up to par - or where it was eons ago when I did this. I probably need to read more.

A coalition of news organizations said in a court filing that video exhibits from a Jan. 6 riot case had "disappeared" from a government platform that provided access to evidence used in court.

I donā€™t know what got into me this afternoonā€¦ but it was much needed and trust you were on my mindā€¦ šŸ˜˜

I say this, honestly, in hopes of alleviating fears. Youā€™re worth itā€¦ but Iā€™m not here for the periphery that scares me. Iā€™m here for the questions you have answers to that started so long agoā€¦ and how you make me feelā€¦ and because I think the world of youā€¦ and your kind heartā€¦

I feel robbed by the periphery that surrounds you, to an extent. I see it as a curse, more than a blessing. Itā€™s great, donā€™t get me wrong, but I see that, more as a cause of a lot of heartache than desiring it. I see it as a trade off, but full of challenges I wish could be done without.

I feel like, if thereā€™s any positive to the shape of things, that you have learned to give me space and hold onā€¦ and, no one has loved me better. You donā€™t ask me to change, you just stay trying to love me as I amā€¦ It is the greatest gift Iā€™ve ever been given.

Heyā€¦ I know my inconsistency scares the shit out of you. Itā€™s so fair to feel that. I promise youā€¦ I always love youā€¦ that never changes. I just donā€™t know, donā€™t always trust you still do in return.

Great article on Jenny Blake Isabella today! Glad to see her Wikipedia page has already been updated, too! www.pride.com/coming-out/b...

12 states like the idea of charging abortions with homicide. 11 of those states have the death penalty. 4 have bills already submitted.
