I don't do automatic follow 4 follow: some of y'all post like you're two seconds from either a grippy sock vacation or lacing up your Nike Decades and I am trying to preserve my sanity and peace here by cultivating my feeds. It's nothing personal.

First it was the Tylenol, next it was cutting off part of my dick at what point does someone just accept that it's because my dad has encyclopedic fucking knowledge of the 70s Bruins

I also once wrote a 20pg paper for my mythology class on Shiva & Parvati by staying up all night before the day it was due. I basically sleep-deprivation-hallucinated my way through it & have no memory of it other than the A I received. I wish I could find the paper again to see how chaotic it was.

From 7pm until 11:59pm on the due date, I wrote a ~15-page whitepaper on [hyperspecific topic redacted so I don't get doxxed but it involved ethics & obligations in business] and not only got an A, but won a writing prize from my uni and have used it to get 2 jobs & 2 promotions.

Git gud, scrubs.

I wrote a 15 page report on heraldic symbolism in medieval armor and weapon design for my art history class the night before it was due (8am class). Made up 90% of it (only found one book for reference) and got an A. GenAI could fucking never.

wrote 20 pages on Faulkner's The Bear four hours before final papers were due on trucker pills and coffee and cigarettes and got an A, fuck you.
You people couldn't hang with real slackers.

Made a Spamwich with lettuce & radicchio from my greenhouse and the baguette I woke up early and stumbled into the cold to buy

Antidote to a rotten day 😌

Sorry I'm not liking your posts these days. I'm afraid of getting fired for having thoughts.

I'd like to figure out some sort of heating system but it's just a cheap plastic tent so that might not be the safest idea (and certainly not the most efficient!). Idk what my options are, honestly, but I would like to see at least a little bit more veg this season! I need a real greenhouse 😞

They seem fine, if unimpressed bc it was in the low 40s when I went in there this morn. One tendril of a nasturtium got got bc the space blankets I put over the top had a gap, but the plants themselves are fine. I didn't cover the beets or kale or carrots and they did just fine too, no damage.

Same honestly, I can think of like...maybe two, and at least one of those had a big gap in the middle so idk if that counts 😂

Love you too 💜💜💜

Wore a sweater to deal with the cold today and my body has decided that's still not enough warmth to avoid going into a fibro flare. I am suing the Designer of Bodies.

Good morning, it's boobs. Tits, even.

@frankenmullet.bsky.social and I have been friends online for nearly 20 years if my math serves me (p sure it was 2006 when we met!)

Online friends are just as legit as face-to-face ones

Also the developer of the transphobe follow labeler decided to shut down and scold people for using it for its intended purpose in the first place, which is cool and very normal

I had a dream about making a pumpkin cornbread cake. I need to find a recipe for this immediately.

She looks it if I'm honest; scraggly and totally over everyone's shit

She lives in defiance of both God & man and we love her for her efforts. I'm hopeful she'll make it to 23 in a few months here!

Photo of an elderly dilute tortie cat sitting on a bed with a blue and white checkered blanket. She looks incredibly annoyed bc OP just woke her up to take this photo. She has a large benign hemorrhagic cyst on her right eye that gives her a sort of Popeye look but it doesn't hurt her.

What does that even MEAN, y'all?? Has it finally happened; am I too old to understand internet culture after 25+ years?
