Rocket Mortgage just sent us a proposal for a complete refinance (which we did not ask for) at 3% higher interest rate, a higher monthly payment than what we are currently paying, and to extend our current loan by 10 years. The response I sent back was the most therapeutic email I have ever sent.

Update: I have now seen my best friend in person and she let me info dump to her for a solid two hours about a season of Love is Blind that aired three years ago in between processing my feelings about my fathers cancer diagnosis. This is why I adore @teetertottertesser.bsky.social

So if you actually care about restorative justice, the thing I beg you to start doing in these cases is CENTERING THE FUCKING VICTIMS. And not demanding that people immediately jump to how they can best not ruin the man's life.

[Deep breath} When you predict Oscar nominations for a movie based on pedigree without seeing it, you are volunteering to aid in a publicity system that favors movies the campaigns for which are already well funded, and by doing so further disadvantaging films whose primary merit is their quality.

Has your Thursday been a lot? Because my Thursday has been a lot. It’s okay if you’re only just now remembering your meds. So take your meds with some water, friend. It’s almost the weekend.

Dad has a surgery next Wednesday with probable check-in time at 5:30 am, which means we need to leave their house by 4:50 am, which means I need to leave my house by 4:15 am, which means I should go to sleep…today. I should just go to sleep today.

My dad has cancer. My mom isn’t currently eligible for the clinical trial for the one med that might prevent her cancer from returning. I am the only person who can drive them to 95% of their dr appts. I am in grad school. Of my course my washer picks now to flood my laundry room with every load.

Dad has bone cancer. Unless his medullary thyroid cancer is back and migrated to his bones. Unless the spot in his lung was lung cancer and has already metastasized to the bone. Unless the spot in his lung was actually a return of renal cancer and has already metastasized to the bone.

I am so very sorry to Gio from Rocket Mortgage for the minor breakdown. This is simply not the week to cold call me to see what you can do for my mortgage rates. Please check back when my life slows down which at its current speed may be after I have died.

I have been sick since Monday. Dad’s arm is broken and the theory for cause (since he didn’t do anything to break it) is that he might have bone cancer. He was the only parent who could drive. Mom has lost so much weight from cancer meds that she no longer qualifies for her trial meds. I’m just done

I don’t know what John hates more about when my parents have health crises. That I become an anxious mess or the fact that the only thing that gets my brain to relax is watching a new-to-me season of Love is Blind. But seriously, he has been incredible this weekend while I have been a disaster

So far, I have a mother with multiple compression fractures in her spine from just existing in a post-chemo body. And now I have a father with a broken humerus for no clear reason other than possible osteopenia worsening. And I just want one parent whose bones are not fucking dust.

So far my post-class decompression movies have been total busts. First class I went to teenage sex & death on 35MM, but the projector wasn’t working. Tonight I went to practical magic 2 and dad called for a ride to the er and the opening credits had barely finished rolling. One day I’ll get to relax

The is a HUGE win against Republican gerrymandering that would preserve another safe district held by a Black Democrat. Missouri Republicans blatantly violated the law to try to run out the clock on the veto referendum, which should have blocked the new gerrymander months ago

Am I currently in grad school part-time on top of working a full-time job? Yes. Did I also just sign up for a seven-week class for fun? Also yes. But in my defense, when @mrsfridaynext.bsky.social teaches a Pride & Prejudice class, there is simply no other option.
