With everything going on these days, it's nice to know our government can join together to *checks notes* declare T. rex the national fossil. ๐Ÿ™„

I succeeded in spending most of the day offline, only to log on now and see what? He wants to rename New Mexico to New America?? WTF???

I got so anxious and overwhelmed yesterday that I spontaneously picked up a book and started reading just to clear my head.

I watched the final installment of Heartstopper. Asexuality and nonbinariness are well represented, but that show always makes me wonder how different my life would be if I knew that about myself at their age.

Democrats when a Republican dies: We tried to work together even though we disagreed. My thoughts are with their family. Republicans when a Democrat dies: Good riddance.

A skunk went off near my house in the middle of the night. I barely slept after that, because my brain kept saying "Bad Smell = Danger = Wake Up."

Instead of trying to get the common letters first, I rule out the uncommon ones. Not like Q and Z, but like K and P. My starting word is always "cough." If there are no hits, I have two backups that cover the rest of the vowels. I don't use A or E or double letters until I have no choice.

You know how a lot of elderly people die after a significant event, like Christmas, or New Year's, or a milestone birthday? ... I'm just going to leave that there.

I really thought my first injury from being a hockey goalie would be a knee or a groin injury. Instead it's my stick-side elbow.

Driving a rental car bigger than what you're used to through Boston during rush hour running on only two hours of sleep and a day of travel is... an experience.

Please, YouTube news channels, stop using the terms "bombshell" and "all hell breaks loose." I see them several times every day and honestly I now actively avoid videos that use them.

I filed my taxes today. The state was so easy: I logged in to my account, and it had pre-populated most of the information (address, dependents, etc). It also automatically calculated my tax. There is absolutely no reason that the federal couldn't do the same. Why doesn't it??

Happy International Asexuality Day! Asexual, often called โ€œaceโ€ for short, refers to a complete or partial lack of sexual attraction or lack of interest in sexual activity with others.

I'm annoyed. I have to go to the city today. My town's protest is when I'm in the city, the city's protest is when I'm home, and the online protest is when I'm driving between the two. ๐Ÿ˜ž

Sure, go play two hours of hockey and drive an hour home while your muscles seize up because you didn't stretch afterwards. No problem...

I know this is a really small thing to gripe about at the moment, but I really hate it when news articles refer to a woman as a "grandmother." Like 99% of the time the existence of her grandchildren is irrelevant to the story. You can't even gauge someone's age by that label.
