I have to go through my closet. Most of my pants are too big now (though I’m regretting getting rid of the jeans that were too small in a jeans purge I did a few years ago…. They’d fit now!).

She was doing laundry and people want to blame her for her death. She was 19. I’m so over cruel internet comment. People - do better.

If a trans person is murdered, misgendering them in comments sections (or anywhere) is unbelievably vile.

The worst part of being on a GLP-1 is that all my ads are telling me I’ll have Ozempic face (I’m not even on Semaglutide), lose my hair, have droopy skin (too late got that my first big weight loss), and other negative side effects if I don’t take a particular supplement…

Currently eating at a small café in a small city in Washington state, I have vegetables on my plate, good fats, probably organic toast…. She’s just trying to be outrageous or is so restricted in her eating that barely anything is healthy to her.

Gave myself my first glp-1 shot today - if it can reduce my back inflammation the 12 week program to get the med at a reduced rate will be worth it.

I cannot tolerate the notion that you can only push yourself at the gym with a trainer who does “tough love” or by having negative thoughts about yourself. I found myself pushing my body today to do that extra Rep, to keep the higher weight etc because I wanted to. No tough love required🩷

Ya I just had one MMR shot as a kid (was born in 1977), learned I had zero immunity in 2019 so I got a booster (thankfully never had measles).

Thanks @gymcastic.com, I listened to your Heated Rivalry episode (I finally watched the series) instead of that certain event that was on all the channels tonight (with noise cancelling headphones).

There are people defending Epstein by saying the girls/women were 16+ (some were younger), but here’s the thing, sex trafficking and human trafficking is still a crime even if the people being trafficked are over the age of 18. Also 16 -17 year olds are still minors.

I had an awesome run of luck for the last 7-8 days of Learned League getting either 4 or 5 answers right each day: there were a few lucky guesses (like Sideline reporter and Glaze), but most I knew!

If you want to change Internet culture (and I’ve been online since 1992 so I’m not new) maybe stop letting hate comments remain would be a start.

I wish pro-LGBTQ+ pages would moderate their comments on other social media platforms instead of letting a cesspool of bad faith comments, terrible anti-lgbtq+ memes etc remain. Screenshot the comments and maybe post them once in a while to prove the hate, there’s no need to keep them up.

My husband leaned Canadian progressive conservative when we met (which isn’t far off from the Democratic Party). He now leans left and socially progressive. My big ole barometer with him though was his thoughts on the LGBTQ+ as it was 2003 as my brother is gay, thankfully he was affirming.

I’m not going to watch hours of YouTube videos to get “context” when the context is actually even just as, if not even more so, terrible than the quotes I’m reading.

I want no one to die except after a living a long good life and peacefully in their sleep at the age of 100 or so. I’ve never even touched a gun. I’m a boring left-wing woman. These peoples’ imaginations and narratives are unhinged.

Seriously! I’ve always thought this, like EDs can have pretty devastating consequences on a growing body (and even fully grown ones too).

My suitcase got inspected twice yesterday, once at Ottawa’s airport and once at the border at Blaine Washington (we got pulled over for a random agricultural inspection at 11:00pm). How exciting, they found my dirty laundry!

Alison Brandon @alisonmooncat.bsky.social · 10/06/2025

Agreed!! This is what gets lost. The bar for trans women to compete is already high! It’s like sporting regulatory bodies have already thought about fairness. Unfortunately there is a narrative that a male athlete decides to become a female athlete just to win when it’s not happening at all.

Musk cannot be “turned”, “flipped”, “allied” with. He is a Nazi and he’s killed 300,000 people, mostly children. Anyone considering taking his political contributions or discussing allying with him has no moral compass nor should they be near power.

I fucking hate comments sections for sports. So many anti-trans people will bring up trans women in sports regardless of what the article’s about.

I saw this gross post on threads showing a pic of a thin woman Trump supporter and a larger woman Democrat to imply that Trump women are better looking. Lots of comments about how Democrat women can be conventionally attractive but a lack of comments about the obvious fatphobia being demonstrated.

I went for a 6k run this morning and actually got an energy boost! Feeling good (but tired now it’s almost 9pm). I’m really happy though, I had a mental block from doing much exercise after my mom was diagnosed with cancer, but I’ve been back at it for the past few weeks.

Life in RFK Jr’s MAHA American. The mainstream medical community must be so frustrated that him and other alternative health practitioners influencers are having way too much influence right now. I’m glad my clinic is being aware of this being a health issue.

You know when you go to your doctor and the front desk asks you if you have Covid/respiratory illness symptoms or if you’ve traveled internationally? Today they added another one “have you consumed unpasteurized cow’s milk or been around livestock in the past two weeks”.

My mother always loved Bennie Hill though. He went to the same Secondary school as my grandfather (though about 5-6 years later that my grandfather) and it required good test scores to get admitted!

Mother’s Day snuck up on me this year. Dealing with 2 kinds of grief at once. As a mom I just want a slice of cheesecake from the Cheesecake Factory tomorrow.
