Having a 24-hour/overnight EEG is interesting. For one thing, I’ve discovered that I’m apparently allergic to whatever type of glue they use to attach all the wires. For another, the elaborate wires, braids, netting, and scarves set up is making me feel like I’d fit right into Star Wars.

Everyone keeps asking me how I’m feeling about early voting so far. I’m feeling like nobody *actually* knows anything, and this is the most important midterm of our lives. I’d rather be us than them, but we can’t get comfortable. We can’t get complacent. Go vote like we’re down 3%.

Loving this for the Norwegian half of my family and heritage 🙃

Trump is straight up saying during speeches that he wants white people coming to the country but not black. I don’t know what else people need to see.

Huh. I’ve been seeing this phrase a lot lately, always from malignant narcissistic worms with antisocial personality disorder.

I love when bottle babies are as honestly perfect as Daikon has been— professional bottle-drinker, nice poops, sleeps between feeding without fussing. 10/10 my guy, no notes, keep it up. Two more weeks until we get to start trying some meat. :3

One of the many things I love about El-Sayed is that he's willing to engage with someone hostile if it gets them to admit the premises behind that hostility, to the extent that it becomes impossible to avoid the underlying bigotry. You want to go there, fine, but he's gonna make you own it.

This is Tommy. Tommy had a question about my allegiances. Listen to the end to hear about his.

Holy shit. Every single Democrat: This is the message. This right here. This is the whole ass pitch the voters in the weeks before the election.

Ossoff: "It's the most corrupt administration of all time & everybody knows it. While the crook president & his crook family rake in billions from all over the world, you pay more for everything... they lied us into war & spent most of the last year covering up for the world's most famous pedophile"

Lots of good news today for Dems. Don’t get complacent. Check your registration. Go vote - early if you can. Let’s win this fucking thing.

I went through some traumatic things as a young child, and developed OCD essentially as a coping mechanism. I used to have to do everything in 3’s. I went to a museum and felt compelled to touch a sculpture. I was caught, and then spent the day agonizing over not being able to touch it twice more.

QUESTION OF THE DAY: This sounds like a joke question, but it isn’t. If it doesn’t apply to you, fine. But it’s a serious question with different levels of meaning. And I am genuinely curious. When did you first realize you were weird?

“Zelenskyy could’ve stopped this war many times, and he chose not to … he better damn well stop” — Trump is no longer trying to conceal that he’s fully on Putin’s side

Lol. Like anyone could deserve it LESS. I have to admit that one of my first thoughts was that I’m way more deserving of a Nobel Peace Prize than the Orange Shitgibbon for constantly mediating continuous damage and drama from the other parents in our kids’ families (whom both have NPD and/or ASPD)

Angry@angrystaffer.bsky.social

I regret to inform everyone that, I, too, did not receive a Nobel Peace Prize for accomplishments that exist only in my imagination. I ask for grace and understanding during this difficult time.

I’ll settle for a stable and safe home and kids who, hopefully, grow up well and with the ability to grow up without personality disorders of their own.

If you can't adopt there are lots of other things you can do to help. Foster, volunteer, fundraise, do a supply drive, sign up for your local shelter's newsletter to find out other ways to help. Remember that volunteering doesn't necessarily mean physical labor - shelters need all kinds of skills!

Just took loperamide for the first time ever. Hoping it helps, because the diarrhea will not stoppp, it’s going into day 5, and I really don’t want to need more IV fluids 🫠🥲 At least my orange boy has been hanging out with me in my misery and giving me lots of lovey blinks 🧡

Welp. 10 hours in a packed ER, multiple sets of labs, 45+ oz of oral fluids and 2 bags of 0.9% saline later, I am now an acceptable-enough-for-discharge level of dehydrated. I’d had a few days stress/med change diarrhea but I really thought I was hydrating ok 🤦🏻‍♀️ Dehydration. Silent until it isn’t!

In the ER again. On the second bag of fluids, waiting on more lab tests. Maybe other tests. The last round month can go suck a lemon 🥴

Today is putin’s birthday. My only wish for him: Live long enough to watch Ukraine win. To see everything you tried to destroy - Survive. And then spend the rest of your life in The Hague, Answering or every Ukrainian life you shattered. #ukraine #russia #war #putin #ukrainians

Someone please go adopt this handsome baby boy because I live too far away. He needs his happiest ever after 🧡

Someone should really, really adopt Cid. This cat is the kind of cat who will take your love and return it tenfold. I don’t have enough words for him— kind, curious, charming, full of personality & presence. This is the kind of cat who will be someone’s soul cat. Elkton, MD. Apply: bit.ly/4cOmi21

I think part of why losing Greta is being so hard on me is because it’s during the same week (a few years later) I had to leave my soul cat behind to save my eldest and myself from DV. This is such a hard time of year on top of everything else. I’m not sure what this experience was meant for yet.

There are literally so many peer-reviewed papers on this. This is not opinion this is a biological fact. There are so many cool vegans who still understand that their cats cannot choose to remove themselves from the food chain, eating meat isn’t an ethical choice they can make. Hannah Shaw is one!

I know we only had her for a short time. I know her family missed her, was worried sick, and is so happy and relieved to have her home. I know we did good. But I look at her empty bowls I haven’t been able to put away yet. Her cat tree and room all set up. The extra big box of wet food. Her toys.

She was such a fantastic little spark of goodness and light in a world where there is so much constant pressing darkness from all around corners. So much in the wide world and our little personal one. She was joy, and love, and little high pitched kitteny mrows. This one hurts. I miss you.

Today is such a mixed bag. Good news first: follow ups with migraine and epilepsy clinics have all been going well, and they are officially NOT recommending any anti seizure meds at this time. The experts aren’t sure it even was a seizure rather than horrific migraine, so more positive outlook 👍

Bad news: I brought little Miss Greta in for her spay, and turns out the vet somehow missed her microchip when they checked weeks ago. She was lost from multiple towns over (What the heck travel-cat? But explains why we weren’t finding the owner…), and owners want her back.

I’m glad we found her and she’s been safe and healthy this whole time, but this was totally unexpected and the kids are going to be devastated 😔 Her family seems nice and has been in contact with me, so planning on meeting up to say goodbyes…thankful for that at least! But ouch 😣

He says: Mom, I haven’t been bullying the new kitten! How could you possibly even accuse me of that?! Look how cute I am! (He most definitely has been blocking the baby into corners and standing over her while she’s growling/scared like a big old jerk 😠 Hoping he gets that out of his system soon 😩)

Working people deserve to know that when politicians make decisions that affect the economy, they’re doing it for the public and not their stock portfolios. Ban Congressional stock trading. And ban Presidents and VPs from trading stocks, too.
