we are now officially on week 2 of sleep strike.

This means no matter what time I go to bed, I wake up anywhere between 2-5 with a HR of 130+ aaaand we don’t go back to sleep

I am So Tired

As a server: buy test strips and drink covers. And do not be ashamed to use them. Test your drink when you get it, test your drink whenever. Just test and/or cover it. We get it. If you ever feel like you’ve been drüggeď get help immediately and report it to your state Liquor Board and the police.
You guys know how the owners of Anime Matsuri also own a bar called The Anime Bar outside of Houston? Seems they run that bar much like they run their conventions, because after a patron talked to the cops about how a friend's drink may have been drugged, an employee banned her from returning.

Cardiologists around the Chicagoland area are probably getting a workout tonight if they are reading their Bears fans’ home heart monitors

AIM are the good guys. If you see folks sporting this flag, you can relax knowing they're here to help us get ICE off our backs.
American Indian Movement (AIM) patrol trucks have been spotted around NE and folks are flagging them as suspicious and giving them unwelcoming glances because they don’t know who they are. This is the AIM logo and flag, which you might see on their trucks. They are friends!

Disc 2 of the Janis box set
If someone put $1,000,000 on the table and said you had to listen to one album on repeat for 48 hours straight…
what album are you risking your sanity for?

I decided after a nice scalp massage/shower to not brush my hair & just leave it alone. I saw something as I was passing a mirror and wondered what was up with my hair.

Grey. LOTS. Now that the colour has washed out I’m pretty damn sure I am going to have a silver streak down the center of my hair.

Speaking of F1 Guy, I haven’t seen him since before the Brazilian Grand Prix. I’m hoping this post speaks him into existence because I miss him and he was the highlight of my work week. I hope he’s okay wherever he is.
We are on day 3 of being too overstimulated to watch football. The Iron Bowl is mandatory in this house but I cannot. Same with F1. If I see F1 Guy tomorrow I don’t know what to talk to him about. My brain hurts.
i was too overstimulated to watch football today. this does not happen pretty much at all so the brain is really not working right

Calls for civility are often weaponized by abusers, by bigots, by those who would oppress you. If it is considered impolite to speak out against dishonor, then it is time for a true warrior to be rude.

In a perfect world we would have a re-release of Live at Last with @therealbettemidler.bsky.social putting out the tribute to the bicentennial as a single this year

This will be lost on those of you who haven’t heard the album so go listen.

One of the few keepable things from LJ. This is Teeks and he passed in 2012.

I saw this and LMAOed

I took what I wanted and deleted the account. I am okay with this.
Now I’ve weird quandary and would like input re:the whole LJ thing:

I had that account at a time that was…so not good in my life for many reasons (some self-inflicted, looking back).

I don’t have much of a desire to have it or go back. But a lot of my Gundam fics are there so…what do? Let them go?

I’ll be glad when mine ceases to exist, for reasons relating to trauma dumping et al but this is a good tool to have if you wish to export your LJ
Okay, I will preface this with the GIGANTIC disclaimer that I promise I know how this looks, and I *swear* this is not personally motivated: If you have an old #LiveJournal account, and it has things you still care about in it, download it or import it to Dreamwidth SOON. Details:

Anime/gaming convention people with children (including aunts uncles etc)

At what age did you feel comfortable taking them to cons? No overnights and with constant adult supervision. And what day would you take them?

This is the true test of the extent of your attention span, and your capability to stay awake.

The dog has put herself to bed. I am going to join her after the NYC ball drop though I live in Chicago. The electric blanket is on, her fan is on, and so is her “cape” (a blanket she loves).

I haz a tired.
