arizona state finally "parting ways" with greg powers after almost TWO MONTHS... i am really speechless. i don't know how anyone there can defend the gap between the event and action.

she wants to watch a show on hgtv and i explained that though it airs tonight, we don't get the channel because we don't have cable, so she needs to wait until tomorrow on hbo max and she was so insistent that she could still watch the channel because she plays for hbo... max 🙃 i can't today!

a positive mindset, day 41: i thought about the crystal glasses i got in ohio at the goodwill around the corner from where i lived for those few hellish months and asked myself, why can't i drink out of these? why not me? so i had my seltzer in it today and felt very elegant. i deserve nice things.

This man is a monster. He seeks out women survivors because he hates them. And he hates them because he hates himself. He has harassed me and other women survivors many times over the years. It must end. He should never have a job anywhere.

i'm going to be so jealous of whoever gets this painting i've been watching for weeks on fbmp. it's such a winner, the best thing i've seen in ages.
a painting of an late seventies early eighties jazzercise-style fitness enthusiast in her twenties, lounging coolly, wearing a mask over her eyes, a purple leotard, turquoise tights, and black strappy heels. the background is pink.a close up on the woman's face. she is wearing a gray mask with pointed edges over her eyes. her hair is ginger and curly and round. a circular gold earring peeks from her right ear. she looks confident.listing for a painting of an late seventies early eighties jazzercise-style fitness enthusiast. listing title reads "1979 oil painting Exercise Lady Retro Vintage." the printing was listed at 800 USD but is reduced to 666. it says it was purchased from "a now defunct valley in Old City Philly."
