This is my weekly proof of life post. I'm finally starting to recover from surgery. Hopefully I'll be recovered enough vy next week to return. If not, I'll do another proof of life.
While I'm here, I need to say: I hate that we live in a time when we can agree with Stephen Harper like WTF
See you!

Thought I should do a quick proof of life post. I'll be on a social media break for longer than anticipated. Surgery was without complications but recovery and healing are not going well. I lost 10 lbs in 3 days after surgery. I'm currently on liquid diet. No NSAIDs means shit pain management 1/3

Very briefly breaking my social media break to say Starfleet Academy is fantastic and if you hate it, you hate joy and should see someone about that.
That is all. See you in a few weeks

A Look Back on 2025 and What’s Ahead in 2026
The year 2025 was not exactly what I hoped it would be. Aside from the Orange Man causing so much stress--the joys of marrying an American and having to forever pay income tax to support that shit unless Andrew revokes their citizenship--other things have also been not so great, such as my autoimmune BS continuing to be BS and refusing to go into remission.

Still alive. Still recovering from my injury. Still taking time away from social media cos I need to eliminate any added stress so my body can heal and my autoimmune BS doesnt explode with added stress of injury.
Also, here is my first crochet project done in almost 40 years. Enjoy
Happy New Year!

I'm alive. I'm just in too much pain to deal with people, even online. So, I'll see you when I see you. Enjoy the rest of the holidays and keep your muscles warm!

I just did THE funniest thing. You know how I have a habit of looking for my phone while I'm reading something on it? Well, I just looked for my phone while I was talking to someone on it 🤣

It's been a minute since a dr saw my mobility chair and made an assumption about my level of physical activity*. Did he ever get an earful when he told me I may want to consider resistance training to avoid clots in the future.

As someone with chronic illness and chronic pain who _always_ tries to convince myself I dont need emergency care and it _always_ turns out to be emergent, I simply need to say:
Always seek care immediately if something is feels different or is "off."

Back at the hospital, waiting for my emergency ultrasound and then back to the ED for results and care plan. And just super extra thankful for Canadian health care and the only extra thing I have to worry about right now is showing up on time

I think there's lots of ways the Heated Rivalry girlies can show solidarity with queer men other than fantasizing that the show will end homophobia in professional sports. The most obvious one, to me, is supporting queer men who write m/m.

Oh no, my lobster's too buttered, too
Just learned from our younger child what the current version of “first world problems” is.
YC - “So my friend told me he couldn’t fit in his slacks anymore because his glutes had gotten bigger from working out, and I was like ‘oh no your lobster’s too buttered’”
