Everyone will keep telling me I’m too much, too thorough, too literal to accommodate and appreciate my contributions. And then they’ll use AI.

SOME of the situations in Alanis Morissette’s song CAN be ironic depending on the context You open YOUR silverware drawer that you KNOW you had a knife in, and it’s just full of spoons instead (like, maybe someone pranked you)?

“Just use a catheter” — people who don’t understand how unreliable even the best ones are. Like, I seriously have to sit with the worry that the thing will come loose while my husband and I are in the middle of our day, and then he will have to go hours with that all over him… There’s no simple way

It's strange how Democratic Socialists - who are being denounced by both parties - turned major deficits into balanced budgets in both New York and Seattle.

BREAKING: In Seattle Mayor Katie Wilson's new proposed city budget being released Tuesday, there is no projected deficit through 2030. Given the state of the projected deficit over the past many years, this is quite an achievement.

Inflation eating up worker pay. Household debt and student loan defaults at a record high. 8 million people have lost healthcare the past year. Thousands have been sickened by disease outbreaks and contaminated food. Trump says, "Pretend I'm on the ballot" ahead of the midterms. Please do.

Just for posterity’s sake of how predictable they are atp… I bet there will be another staged ‘attempt’ at this thing

Trump’s midterm convention is so vile and toxic that they’re now scrambling to GIVE AWAY free tickets and Republicans still don’t want to go

I actually cannot relate at all to any songs about “dancing through the night”… I never had a youth that enabled that kind of energy expenditure

What if they figured out that they could gouge us more on groceries if they’d just have us pick out everything we need/want and then bill us later like healthcare does?

Imagine the culture shock if you discovered time travel and went back in time and then got detained for attempted shoplifting because you brought reusable bags to the grocery store

Ron and Cassie DeSantis: These two crooks stole $10 million from a settlement with a charity, wired it to Cassie’s fake “charity,” laundered it through two puppet organizations, and then used it for political ads in an election year. They should be in jail.

Must be “kinda chic” for one of our neighbors to keep ordering Uber Eats and leaving their food untouched in the building’s lobby for days while a lot of other people aren’t getting enough food resources

I’ve been consistent, but the clinical notes have not been, and now I’m suffering because of mistakes I didn’t make and had no hope of keeping up with fixing them all

“Why are young [AFAB folks] using walking sticks?” Well, f*ck, I literally almost got run over by THREE cars on my 15-minute walk to bring my husband lunch bc I didn’t have a mobility aid that would command drivers’ respect, so they just kept driving toward me, expecting me to leap out of their way

So the IRS has “completed” accepting my amended 2024 tax filing, acknowledging that I am owed money, but it has been a month since then, and they have not made the payment to me. I guess I let that amount due collect interest until the next administration gets in and pays me…?

Instant oatmeal with blackberry seedless jam and oatmilk mixed in to smooth it out Triple Zero yogurt cup Instant mashed potatoes with margarine …what else…? I’m running out of ideas

Why did the entire medical community decide it hates hEDS patients for literally no reason? When I was diagnosed over a decade ago, it was “that’s too rare for us to know about”… now they’re saying the opposite, “that’s to trendy for us to care about.” Why is there no middle ground with this??

A rheumatologist telling you that you can’t have a condition you’re diagnosed with because all of his other patients with that disorder have way worse symptoms than you… is not the flex he thinks it is

Anyone ever consider that a reason so many horrible people want to criminalize more things that cause no one any harm… is because they then can blend in with their own criminal records? Like… if most convicts were not hurting anyone, then the ones who were can fly under the radar easy

Today my TN allowed me to have: An attempt at a hot drink with peanut butter, collagen protein powder, hot cocoa mix, hot water, and then cold oat milk Two servings of smooth boxed mashed potatoes A gluten-free ice cream sandwich (consequences threatened halfway through, but I managed)
