The #1 movie when you were 10 years old is how your 2026 is going to go.

I didn't give the update.
our washer is NOT broke. it was probably a balance issue. we need to adjust the legs in the back of it, which may never happen bc that's a pain in the ass.
and also on the upside, our new dishwasher runs great and we bought a Zojirushi water boiler that I love to pieces <3
we bought a new dishwasher last month, because ours broke. it stopped spraying water. we were never happy with it, so we just bought new.
two days ago, my electric kettle broke. it wasn't that old. but I'm looking into water boilers, and running laundry while I do so.
...our washing machine just 1/2

Disabled people do not owe you their medical history.

They do not owe you their diagnosis.

They do not owe you an explanation.

Benefits are exceedingly hard to get and the process is punishing & dehumanizing.

No one is doing it for fun.

Why does the left keep losing to the right.
The right is simply better at hate, confrontation, and conflict driven politics. It feeds them. It energises them. It unites them. 1/5

I needed to hear this...
You weren’t “difficult to love.”
You were never loved according to your needs.

You weren’t “too intense.”
You were unfiltered without guidance.

You weren’t “hard work.”
You were human.

They didn’t know your language.
So they called you the problem.

Fuck that.

it's really rude when you have chronic disabilities AND really bad depression, so you never can tell if you need to fight yourself to get something done or if you need to lower your expectations of what you should even try to accomplish.

Reminder!!

Bluesky has a pronoun labeler you should really use!

Only those who subscribe to this will see it so you should do that. Don't worry, that's all it does.
Instructions are in the bio/first post.

I live in the Dallas metroplex, in an area that has a lot of people, and as such, a lot of light pollution.
so imagine my surprise when my mom texted me about the Northern Lights last night, and I took a peek outside and saw purpleish and reddish hues in the sky at 11pm.

We're socialized to constantly apologize for being too outwardly excited about things, but this world is so full of terror and misery that I'd rather see those bursts of light and passion shine through the cracks wherever you can find them.

for anyone wondering how to find out if yours is recalled, call your pharmacy. they fill your 30-day or 90-day prescription *from* the 100-count bottles. your pharmacy can pull the manufacturer and lot number associated with your medication bc it's all tracked in their computer!

Reposting because, and I say this with love, some of you are going to see this and go “oh shit, I need to check my bottle” and then immediately forget about it so if this could affect you, go check right now before you even scroll to the next post, I mean it.

we don't normally get a true fall in October, but it's not been above 80F in a while and it'll be below 60F all day Wednesday.

I think we're actually getting fall before November for once.

I cut a friend out of my life yesterday, for betraying my trust & hurting me, on purpose, probably to spare his ego.
I grieved for a day, then felt a weight lifted off my shoulders today. I realize now just how much I had been tiptoeing around him, just how much anxiety I had in his presence.

Accessibility is not optional or “would be nice.”

Accessibility is absolutely necessary.

I really hope we're done with 90F weather days.
