My dude, I barely have pennies left at the end of the month but I appreciate your gumption. Your humor deserves compensation. I hope you made rent today.

I would prefer to be a house cat today - which doesn’t *just* mean getting to lay around and sleep for 17 hours. But also that I have no responsibilities and someone will feed me and love me and be incredibly joyful when I give them any attention.

My younger son is going to see this and say “great, yet another professionally shot photo of my family I’m not in.”

Bluehost is trying to charge me $540 for 3 years for my website. What do you use, who do you recommend? What’s a decent yearly price?

I know, right? Who swapped out my infant for this actual grown child!?

There’s a grief I feel once a TV show ends. Even if the ending is satisfying I still feel sad and lonely and miss my companions. For a long time I felt shame about this. But now I unabashedly “fall in deep” with the characters and storylines. And I believe it’s made me a better human.

The fact that to quell my sleep anxiety I listen to the main segments of Last Week Tonight with John Oliver all night long makes this a most beautiful and welcome discovery. Thank you. Truly.

Oh look at me, planning ahead. Like always

The very idea that I would speak for you considering our soon-to-be-acrimonious divorce proceedings. #HappyAnniversary! #TheBickersonsWay

So @wolter.bsky.social and I saw an actual oriole in person yesterday on our walk and, frankly, I’m now rooting for a team I never really ever cared about before. #GoOrioles?

Ohhh hahaha I misread that! I hope we can record more, too! With my work shifting it’s looking more likely!

Tagging @wolter.bsky.social because apparently we made a newly-turned 8 year old.

Can you believe I’ve never seen The Terminator? In our regular MMIS podcast fashion, this week @wolter.bsky.social showed me this classic film I missed in my childhood. Give it a listen and see if I liked it more than Cobra.

Mishearing the lyrics to Evenflow and thinking Pearl Jam were so cultured because they wrote about Edith Wharton’s 1911 titular character, Ethan Frome.

It’s one of the most quotable movies - and the truth of it today is disturbing as I’m home alone and this pot is entirely mine to complete.

It’s heartbreaking what we get forced to normalize in this country

This. I experienced a soft lockdown with my kid in his pre-k school after a routine meeting with his teacher/team - I scanned every corner, closet, area- putting myself closest to the door so I could shield the kids if necessary - could they all fit under the tables? In the craft closet? Scary af.

Dear distraction, I appreciate your willingness to help me temporarily put aside emotions, thoughts, work, etc through various activities. I’m wondering if we could reframe exercise as a distraction so I may enjoy the process rather than dread it? Sincerely, Me and my brain

I cannot endorse this strongly enough

That weird feeling when it’s the last day of a job you sought out, worked to get, knew was the work you were built for, and then realized you were taken advantage of so you have to leave - both heartbroken and with your dignity and worth intact. My clients and coworkers: may the force be with you

@wolter.bsky.social - I can absolutely get behind Dopey Cow(tm) - your monstrosity, however, should never see the light of day. Dopey Cow for the win!

This is something I’m surprised has not yet happened in our industry. I suspect it’s because it’s so state specific as far as licensure goes. I’m currently in a union for my other job and I’m grateful af for it.

Just a reminder: you and the other employees are not there to protect the company. They can’t operate without you. If they are doing y’all dirty protect each other, first. Stand together. In the end, you are each other’s future references and colleagues. Be good to each other.

Hey fun reminder: Even if you have the power to tell someone to do something at their job, you look like a fucking asshole by not just asking, first.
