Here's a handed down grandma clothing tip. To guage if pants will fit. Zip/button the fly. Wrap the waist part around your neck like a cape. If the garment overlaps by an inch or so it will fit you. If it just meets, it'll be tight. May not work for some people, my family tree aren't all body types.

I didn't have enough small containers for my remaining mushrooms, but I did have an orange peel! Now the fridge won't dry them out. This worked with outter cabbage leaves. It just occured to me to try an orange peel. Highly reccomend trying tangerines. Easy peasy peeling. #orignalreuseablefoodwraps

Wow! When I said I was ready for rapid change I didn't expect competent people to meaningfully give me support in every capacity that others have either promised and taken back or flatout neglected. They're being direct about it and they're making room for me. This is wildly overdue. Best gift ever.

I've been watching weather reports pretty often. The past year, 2025, in the U.S. alone, was a greatest hits (literally) of the past century's most volitile and damaging weather. Almost like the planet's immune system is kicking in. We're in the thick of it. Recycle, reduce, reuse, repair, and try.

To sum up a dream lst night that keeps popping up in daydreams: Ex-Mushroom brick solar powered water/well filtration System are a good idea to promote. Just a mix of projects mixed into one piece of eco friendly infastructure.

To the people verbally encouraging me to learn new languages. I'd love to, but I'm dealing with wayyy more pressing matters right now.

Had another uncanny remote view dream last night. This time the crushing weight someone was feeling almost made them throw up. I don't remember if they actually did or not. Not a fun feeling. Hope they made it through that rought emotion. I should write these down before I forget most of them.

Only two days of Yule left. I'll just pretend like I forgot that fact and buy myself a small Yule Log before it's not in bakeries anymore. It might have to be a Yule twig or a Yule stump (a single ring of Yule log) cuz I can't eat a full Yule Log. I can, but I shouldn't. That's a whole buncha sugar.

Found some cool organic graffiti the other day. A decently carved tree tag. It looks like it says sudden change and forward motion. All proceeded by a old school Good Luck charm. Whoever made it, I'm buckled in and ready as I'll ever be, for a metaphorical roller coaster ride. I might even have fun.

Anyone else have vivid "seeing through other people's eyes" type dreams last night? No? Just me. Cool, that's fun. Last night's sleep was deep. Watching some moron scared of a bug that wasn't bugging him, just whinning for attention from my view point.

It's funny to me that I'll live in one place and certain people will think they're either magic or chosen by the heavens, waiting for signs. Then I move 200 miles or less and find more people who think the same thing. Most float around me like I'm the sign. They REALLY need a psychiatrist instead.

Hi America, I know that warm colors suit me. After some wikipedia reading, internet skimming, and loud people in public. I was aware that I look similar to a certian anime character who is ALARMINGLY resilient to being shot. America has an insanely high gun violence rate. Wtf would I ignore that?

Why am I not so subtly being told to visit Japan by other people? Oh wait, I forgot where I live. They won't tell me or help me with the why or planning part because "say, don't do" is the true 'Merican way. I haven't been comfortable since I got here because of this kinda sh!t. 25 years of unease.

I'm not sure how to interact with people who are so bewildered by me that they ask if I'm real or can't tell if I'm human or not. This isn't new. Niccolò Paganini was accused of being demonic because his violin skills were too good. A large chunk of humaity just kinda stagnated, I guess.

Did I buy the 2lb thing of butter? Yes. 'Cuz I cut it into thick medallions, wrap with parchment paper, and freeze the extra medalions. Move to fride when in need of more butter. And now you can too.

Hey America! Do you want stuff?! No? Great! We've extended stuff day to the rest of the month! Forget that budget that's been floating you for the past year! You've been trained from a young age to not have impuse control. Seriously, hearing how much holidebt people dove into with a smile is nuts.

When someone says I'm being watched by angels, I want to know which government agency that's code for. It's like, yeah buddy, I know I'm on a government watch list. Just not sure which one. More like benifical stalkers who get paid more than me. Can I start stalking myself to be on that payroll?
November 26, 2025 at 6:45 AM
The government is getting so desperate for ice agents that I'm getting ads. Don't interupt Murder She Wrote with that garbage! Can't they see my online activity and geo-locations? Is their surveillance actually as halfassed as I think it is?

People are having deep meaningful dreams. Meanwhile, I have dreams where someone says I'm too short only to walk up to me, face to face, to realize they're the same height. Wow...so deep.

A new past time of mine is drinking Liquid Death in public to see how many people think it's a beer. One person makes a comment at least once per can. It says a lot when people talk at strangers because they misinterpreted something they didn't understand and react out of fear. Also, not sponsored.

Not a god damn soul warned me about the stage of life were other people's kids will try to intetact with me like they know me. I'm pretty sure I will never have kids and the universe was all like, "Ha! Well that's too damn bad!". Sometimes it's cute and sometimes I want to buy the parents a beer.

Fare thee well, summer tan. You were uneven yet you evened my skintone. You will be missed. Until late spring of next year, when I may wear shorts and tee shirts. So I may walk and dawn the hue of a lightly toasted marshmallow once more.

Went to the thrift store and now I have a new hobby. All for, like, four bucks. I'll be juggling cainsaws in now time!

Mad shout out to my toaster oven for being the tiny oven I never knew I needed. Baking, broiling, toasting, and making my apartment just a little bit warmer everytime.

Why the fuck did the Seceritary of Defense loudly announce to the world, "Heyy~ hostile world powers, we just pooled all our top brass in one location and made an almost guaranteed reaction delay to any event on anyone under their command."? This is the SECOND time he's announced troop locations.
