In case of racist uncles or dead moms or someone saying "only two genders" or your gifts didn't arrive on time or you have a tummy ache or this day is just awkward and you wish it was over:
Arlo loves you as you are. You can be okay anyway and it's okay to not be okay. Happy Thursday!

I think I was prepared to hate A.I. by already hating leafblowers, which are also extremely wasteful and can't do anything we didn't already know how to do.

If you are worried this is too big an executive function barrier you can go to a pharmacy and they will probably just jab you. That is what I did.
I'm not saying it's necessarily the right way to do this, that is just how much I am not fucking around with the measles

Go to your doctor and get your measles titers checked to make sure you are still immune and if not get re-vaccinated. It’s more and more likely all of us are going to eventually come in contact with it.
The thing about measles is that it’s the only known virus that triggers immune amnesia - it causes your immune system to forget everything it has previously learned. Meaning you essentially reset to zero and are now at risk of basically everything.
It can take 2-3 years to get immunities back.

Exactly 19 years and 11 days ago, Moonstruck (1987) got a limited release on December 18, 1987.
The Holiday will be closer to the release of Moonstruck than to the present day... starting tomorrow.

Social media has reliably informed me The Holiday with Kate Winslet, etc. was released 19 years ago…
And excuse me while I crumble into dust. 💀

if you want your doctor to say you're doing amazing and not mention (at all!) the 20 pounds you gained, just have 4 eye surgeries in 6 months. works like a charm.

4 yrs ago today, a family member managed a truly spectacular own goal, splintered his domestic bliss, & in the process, united the world for a day.

things I wish I'd realized/been told before having an upper front tooth extracted:
1) I have a lisp now
2) using the Rx mouthwash makes a mess, my lips won't stay sealed
