Surprisingly got an edible watermelon from my late season early mini melon gambit. Golden Midget watermelon started from seed August 1st, harvested October 25th. It's just barely sweet enough but if it's decent while grown out of season, it will be proper good next year. Fun-sized & easy to grow. ☀️🍈

Very sad @dancinghoneybear.bsky.social is going through a hard time right now. This is Peaches & she is a wonderful little old lady. She's reached old age for a ferret despite her health problems, but tomorrow she'll be crossing the 🌈 bridge. She's such a sweetie & we're all gonna miss her. 💔

More pink spotted hawk moth 💗 They feed on plants in the morning glory family, petunias, & other trumpet shaped flowers. This is why I will be keeping the native vines around & will be growing moonflower & petunias every year. 😻

On today's edition of Nature Is Metal, a parasitic wasp thanked me for making my area hospitable to them. They also pollinate my hot peppers!🤘On the flip side, 3 native morning glorys + moonflower & petunias = hawk moth paradise, & the pink ones showed up! 🥲 It's a love/hate relationship now.

I've been pretty down lately. I thought my endocrinologist was doing his due diligence finally, but he flipped on me again. Wouldn't let me speak or give anything other than a y/n answer, accused me of talking him in circles. He twisted my inverted salivary cortisol tests into shift worker disorder.

I just had to get this off of my chest. Maybe someone out there needs to feel not alone in their medical struggles. Maybe we need to address & actually fight back against medical misogyny & have an actual avenue for real patient advocacy that is not through the provider. He's cost me a decade.

TL:DR - My doctor future faked & gaslit me for over 10 years which prevented me from getting anything but "mental healthcare" everywhere else & symptomatic treatment was prioritized above function. I'm trying to post more garden again for my sanity. Cat tax coz I ❤️ y'all.

Because I've had this condition since early puberty, I never got to get more education, have a career, a whole life. I need to work on my house & when I lamented that in tears years ago I got, "It's okay, you still look young". BECAUSE I STOPPED GROWING EARLY HOW DO YOU NOT GET THAT?! So yeah.

Now, what I previously dismissed as a close & friendly but professional relationship with my Dr., feels like I was just treated like a piece of meat. His only treatments have been for superficial symptoms, despite me reporting being nonfunctional the whole time with increasing severity.

Completely forgot my history, ignored historical tests & context. He was mad he didn't get approved to treat me when I never asked, only tests, so I could be sure in treatment. I asked why he was being so offensive, he only said "I am". My pcp has my back but damn, I can't fucking sleep, I'm broken.

He canceled more ongoing tests & never made the referrals to a T3 mri & teaching hospital for advanced endocrinology. I asked repeatedly for cyclical cushing's tests that stack easily on top of, nada. He's also made weirdly dismissive comments to my life destroying symptoms in the past as well.

He can't even hold it correctly. Propping it up by the slide with his thumb so delicately. Upset men holding guns they're afraid of means they want to make you fear with that weapon. This is a hate crime, we're absolutely cooked.

Not gonna lie, things have been tough lately on multiple levels. But as long as I keep doing a little bit in the garden every day, I'm always given something to appreciate. This hummingbird hawk moth acted like I wasn't even there. There's tons of pumpkins blooming they love to feast upon too.

18 July

I have so much garden to post, especially when it's a golden sunset after a rain & the light conditions are perfect.

So, I think I finally got good at growing plants. Maybe a little TOO good...

4 July

Hope everyone has a nice weekend. I finished setting up my garden yesterday, & found out all my melon seeds are bad, hopefully some Alpine strawberries take up the space. The cardinal told me it'll be ok. Now to plant out some extra peppers, tomatoes, okra, & flowers, & break out the fire pit.

1 July

My body is absolutely screaming in pain, but my mind is finally simmering down from the stress of the extended cold & rainy weather sabotaging my seedlings. I'm putting some old kiddie pools with the bottom cut out in the center to serve as a raised bed/mound for my squash & melons tomorrow.

Just tuned in to rhyall.bsky.social to some very serious banter & threats to y'allbot to put them in a recursive loop of negative reddit comments, only for YB to show a shiny spine & tell Ryan he's not worth it. I'm howling crying right now.

Happy Father's day Dad. I miss you & giving you hats & techy watches that you loved so much. My Dad was a jack of all trades. I don't have many pics of him at work, here he is videoing at the recording studio opening that he designed & engineered/mastered at.

In case anyone missed her, the little creamy fuzzball fading into his shirt was named Taffy. The hot pink shirt I'm sporting was from the local arcade, Pirate's Cove. Dad took me there every weekend & gave me $5! Still have the giant stuffed panther I saved 2000 tickets for, mostly from skee-ball.

I'm not allergic to poison ivy & there is none in my yard, but I'm lucky enough to be highly reactive to virginia creeper & it's everywhere. Then I get a crunchwrap that I paid 30 cents for black beans added, they were 86'd so they put refried, & left all the meat out of it. I should write a song...

So this is stupid as fuck but sometimes I write some kinda funny stuff instead of being frustrated. So I hope this makes at least one person laugh, gasp, or at least chortle.

Unfortunately, I've been more withdrawn lately due to health & being completely untreated so I can take all the tests. Cortisol not only gives you massive brain-fog but a feeling of doom. I'm so grateful to all the friends I have here, I can barely think, but my chaos is embraced regardless. 🙏🌦🌈🤟

GiGi@goddessburstall.bsky.social

This account added me to a list, didn't block them at first to see what the account's motivation is. This is to deliberately agitate them to see if they circumvent the block. Giving bot & ai accounts the same deference as real humans is wrong & we need to address automation straining bsky resources.

FFS, I'll keep posting these accounts as they come because there's a real network of bots meant to marginalize & silence people for not letting ai crap follow them. Debating on going to threads at this point. All it took was simply stating I block ai/bots in my bio, all this mess is not worth it.

Because targeting someone with an actual cortisol disorder, that had no idea they even existed, to add them to a list that they made that they're making by keywords alone, is insane. No one is getting notifications for keywords they don't like, wtf even is that?

This is why the left is disenfranchised. They put their energy into this crap while whining at anyone that feels the left isn't doing enough. I'm sick & fucking tired of being used as an insult & punchline when the boys are fighting.

It plays an important role in harm reduction around here, replacing a lot more than just alcohol. Medical cannabis has replaced some harmful pharmaceuticals in my case & manages my condition better. I'm grateful Andy approaches things from all sides.

Governor Andy Beshear@govandybeshear.bsky.social

We made a promise to deliver safe medical cannabis to Kentuckians, and that's a promise we've kept. We cut the ribbon on two new cultivators, including Best State LLC in Stanford. We've made a lot of progress in just a year. Congrats, everyone!

Happy Anniversary to @snusgoose.bsky.social & Happy Birthday to Dutch! Dutch is a shop cat from the lovely plumbing business across the street. He'd sneak out & patrol & make friends. He & Hank were the "Beastie Boys" outside, & he needed to retire, how serendipitous he ended up with us. 😻

I haven't seen this much verbatim scripting since I worked as a telemarketer selling high interest credit cards at a company founded by a drug dealing biker gang. But the cherry on top is the warhammer40k/killzone angels descending from heaven.

What in the heck were 80's & 90's mothers thinking? Dressing elementary school aged children in turtlenecks & stirrup pants, but the strap needed to go inside the shoes so they wouldn't get dirty, like the white or beige carpet they got wall to wall when their kids weren't even potty trained yet!
