Whenever I go to bed when it's still light out in the summer, it feels like such a betrayal to the sun 🥺

Rumi is curled up under the blanket I have draped over my legs and ottoman... every time he shifts, he pulls more blanket down toward him and off of me, 🥺

Alejandra Hope @alejandrahope.bsky.social · 13h

Oooh, this is tempting. (I've missed our former ad hoc book club!)

Alejandra Hope @alejandrahope.bsky.social · 13h

Haha, yeah, I had to google Riggs because I totally forgot about him.

I think all the dudes she's dated look alike, except Derek.

I think a Meredith with Finn plot would've been better than the inevitable Meredith and Derek plot. Or like. If she had remet Finn after Derek died, maybe? Idk

We're having a real normal one over here!

Text conversation that reads:

moving back to seattle means i probably won't get vaporized in the nuclear war 🥺
[bsky.app link to a post about Trump's nuclear testing post]

Would you in Bremerton??

Less than 10 miles away from the nuclear base? Yeah, probably!

Ahh, so you'll just get radiation poisoning instead?

Yeahhh 😭

Here's what Vance isn't saying: The Quota Act of 21 and the Immigration Act 24 both exempted people migrating from the West. IA24 outright banned Asians.

What Vance means when he says "common community" is "white people."

MAGA is, functionally, an iteration of the NSDAP.

...was about to type, Company #2 thinks I have ~3500lbs of stuff whereas Company #3 thinks I have ~6500lbs BUT THEN I REMEMBERED--

Company #3 said they have a 6500lb minimum. So. That partially explains the discrepancy.

Company #1 only gave an hourly rate, even if we drive around. Legal? Idk!

Alejandra Hope @alejandrahope.bsky.social · 14h

I received 3 wildly different estimates from the movers I spoke to, and now I don't know how best to proceed.

Company #1 ~$1050 if drive around, ~$1400 if we ferry
Company #2 ~$1170 if hourly/ferry, $2100 if by weight/drive around
Company #3 ~2065 if hourly/ferry, ~$4327 if by weight/drive around

How it looks on my photo roll, lol

A screenshot of 9 pictures of the water; 7 of which are the same shot except one has a raven flying overhead

Alejandra Hope @alejandrahope.bsky.social · 15h

Well ok then, random raven!

Méduses is a good name for them! I'm sorry you got stung- I bet it hurt a lot!

Whenever I see lion's mane jellies I get this impulse to poke them but I never do haha

Alejandra Hope @alejandrahope.bsky.social · 16h

~Apparently~ all of my "you can see Seattle if you squint hard enough" posts from Point No Point have been Wrong™, unless you count Everett/Mukilteo/Edmonds (not actually sure which but my current guess now is Edmonds) as Seattle, 😅

Harbor porpoise at Point No Point!

Time for me to leave so I'm home in time for therapy but I saw another loon!

Think this was my best shot of the puffins- they've drifted too far for even my binoculars to adequately see them at this point

Coffee shop or library and read or journal?
