Verily, I seethe.

My kid is so good at creating Mii’s on Tamagotchi Life. Mine look like they’ve been hit with a shovel several times. But I still love every one of them.

Happy caturday.

I’ve noticed A LOT more pride flags on Washington state and county building this year. Places that have never flown the pride flag before. It’s so good to see it especially this year.

Today in “our education system is absolutely failing our kids”. This is my kids social studies final. She marked the correct answer and it said she is wrong. Also it had the same exact question three times. Good thing I look over her tests results.

Struggling with permutations and combinations. Can’t seem to find someone that explains it so my dyscalculic brain can grasp the concept. Please send help. I’m trying so hard to teach myself math after years of struggle but this has skewered my brain in unimaginable ways. 😑 need Math help please.

Introduce yourself with 10 bands you’ve seen live: 1: The Damned 2: The Dickies 3: The Adicts 4: Melt Banana 5: The Toy Dolls 6: Rasputina 7: Rancid 8: Oxymoron 9: Songs for Moms 10: The Pixies

Today I got a free chair. It’s big, cozy and squishy. I cannot wait to be in wind-down time to test out the coziness level.

People I know IRL aren’t on Bluesky so I keep going back to Facebook to keep connected locally. I got slightly sucked back in for a bit but with the recent homicide of a trans sibling in Seattle & the comments under every mention are full of hate. I‘m struggling w/ the hate. I can’t be on there.

It really feels like most people have completely lost the plot. Are we going to survive this?

I filled up tank today on my way to volunteer (delivering food boxes to my community)…… $6.10/gallon. 😭

Can’t get up to goto bed….I must not disturb the boy.

Today I paid a little over $30 for less than 5 gallons of petrol. But also procured a bicycle for my kid and will be getting one set up for myself so maybe we can stop driving as much…harder when you’re rural but for the little daily errands. Every little bit helps.

Just tuned into the local HOA meeting because 3 of 5 board members resigned - all MAGA - leaving no quorum to attend to any business. People commenting were so rude from the start. All on party lines. I don’t see us coming back from this division if even a tiny local community is this divided.

Do people still darn socks? I’ve started darning my socks. I’m not great at it but it sure does extend their life.

Today I went to pull invasive scotch broom with a neighborhood group and saw the BIGGEST frog I’ve ever seen In this area. It was easily 4” long and absolutely the cutest little guy. It made my day.

Congratulations to the people of Hungary. I hope the new leadership is beneficial for your country.

I don’t understand the world. This is all so loud. Ever wish the world had a pause button? To just get a minute to breathe?

Last night I had a dream that I was dancing super silly having an absolute blast but my feet were stuck in Aaron’s thinking putty specifically that super scarab sparkle one and it was real weird.

Walking my kid through the music history section of her art elective this quarter has been a huge escape from the real world. I’m learning about some artists I’ve never known before and revisiting some I haven’t listened to in some time.

Our government almost started WW3 and threatened to decimate an entire population and culture….and people are making TACO jokes. Talk about privilege. I’m not fucking amused. Start taking this shit seriously people. I feel like I’m living in the worst nightmare.

So we avoided the bad timeline. For now. But for how long?

I just saw that it’s international Ace day. Hello my fellow ace’s. I hope you had a day. 🖤🩶🤍💜

Eating lemon jello while watching the world slowly crumble. In a food crisis I’ll likely be the first to starve because I can’t eat beans…..or like literally anything else that would be available. Unfortunately I don’t have a cache of apocalypse jello.

Now more than ever I want to see the nation of Cascadia to become reality.

Well at least the bombing practice has stopped……for now.

WTI Crude is at 111.39 a raise of 11.26% today. And I’m watching it tick up fast. How much further will it rise by market close?

Serebii Update: The latest Pokémon feat. Hatsune Miku Project Voltage High song has been released This is a remix of Facade Question by Yuri Kuriyama Details and embed @ www.serebii.net

I’ve never seen any spider like this since I found this one. Any entomologists or arachnid enthusiasts on here know what this is? It’s in Washington state.

Don’t give him the fucking ratings by watching his propaganda speech today. Get the highlights and laugh at him later tonight and tomorrow.

I think I missed my calling. I should’ve gone into social work. The amount of compassion and empathy I feel towards humanity and wanting to see everyone cared for and loved. It would’ve been a perfect fit. Maybe I can go back to school once my kid is an adult. Or just volunteer more. I don’t know...

The Supreme Court did not strike down conversion therapy bans today. Not nationwide. Not in Colorado. Not anywhere. Here's what actually happened in Chiles v. Salazar—and why the coverage you're seeing serves the conservative legal movement more than it serves you.

On Transgender Day of Visibility today, we uplift and celebrate transgender Washingtonians. I admire their resilience in the face of adversity. In Washington, we'll always stand up for the rights of transgender individuals. That won’t change as long as I am Governor.

He’s my bestest friend and I want him to stay here forever and ever. Best boi in the world.

Please join us for a Solidarity day on April 4th, 1-3pm outside of the Northwest Detention Center, 1623 E J St. Tacoma, WA.

This war is different than the others I’ve lived through in my lifetime. This is scary. I hate it. I’ve always seen the big picture and the patterns in things (Thanks autism). Everything is so surreal. I’m trying to stay positive but honestly it feels like the end of everything I understand.

Today I lent a hand with community scotch broom eradication. I didn’t know they’ve been doing it every weekend. I’m excited to help with that more often now that I know about it. It’s such a huge problem near me and is starting to cause a mass die-off of native species.

OMG. Tomogachi Life demo. 😱 I was supposed to go to bed early. So much for that.…..

No Kings is tomorrow. Get out. Show up. Even if you’re in a small town. Stand up while you still have the chance.

I’m getting worried that I might have trouble this fall voting b/c I’m in the state-run address confidentiality program. People don’t understand why address confidentiality programs are essential to keeping crime victims safe. I shouldn’t have to leave that program & compromise my safety to vote.

It’s no longer safe for me to drive through Idaho. I mean it wasn’t before because…..well…..it’s Idaho…..but for sure now.
