Frustrated because I asked for an absentee ballot well within the deadline and it still hasn’t shown up. I might not be spending all my time in NYC right now, but I’m still a New Yorker and I want to vote. 😭

A blessing: my mother is vehemently anti-Trump. A curse: I have to see his face every time I go to her Facebook page because she’s posting about how awful she is with links to prove it.

Getting used to Tuscaloosa has been fun so far, but it’s really hitting me how much I miss my friends and family.

Did Obito Really Become A Villain Just Because Rin Died?
If you ask a random Naruto fan why Obito became a villain, chances are high that they’ll say it’s because Rin died and he had a crush on…

dear lady working at the laundromat: maybe just after you changed the washer i was using to the wrong setting because you thought it was yours is not the best time to interrupt me from doing my laundry to ask me for an online review. just a thought.

when i was a kid i wrote a toxic yaoi wip. several rewrites later and it’s about an autistic 13yo who is really angry that his classmate doesn’t have health insurance and therefore can’t treat his severe allergies and asthma. still gay as hell, but i like this version a lot better.

season 4 of osomatsu-san is so chill compared to previous seasons. considering they randomly go to space and fight aliens and get transformed into watermelon zombies that is really saying something about how bonkers past seasons have been.

I hope that when I move in two weeks I’ll be able to focus on all the things I love about Tuscaloosa instead of all the things I miss about New York.

tonight is my goodbye dinner with the baptist home for old ladies, the group chat name for some of my IRL best friends. we’re in our thirties, none of us are baptist, and ‘ladies’ doesn’t exactly encapsulate everybody’s genders, but the name somehow fits perfectly.

It does not bode well that the counseling service at my new school seems to require that you make phone calls to schedule appointments. This seems like a pretty big barrier to access for people with a lot of the problems they’re meant to help with.

Just spent the evening with one of my best friends - Mari. I am going to miss her so much when I move. I know I’m lucky to have people in my life I’ll be sad to leave behind, but holy wow am I going to be sad.

It’s genuinely so annoying when you ask a question online and people chime in with “Google it.” Clearly I know to do that. I’m asking because I want individual opinions. If you don’t have those, just don’t answer the question. It wasn’t directed at you specifically so you don’t have to say anything.

I got back from a pretty intense vacation one week ago. I had a cold during the second half. I started teaching summer school today. It’s hot as hell. I am 37. It makes sense that I crashed after work. It makes sense that I had to cancel a much-desired hangout with a friend because I was tired.

Not knowing the language of a place is hard. The last two places I travelled to were Sri Lanka and Mexico. English is one of the dominant languages in Sri Lanka and I speak a little bit of Spanish. I know like four words in French and English is not widely spoken. Thank god for Google Translate.

i was in a grocery store and an employee said some words to me in french. i didn’t understand the words but i did understand the meaning - get out of my store we are closing. i left and saw on the stores’ posted hours that indeed, they were closing. retail hell transcends language.

ughhhhhh. i really need to find some way to get myself to exercise regularly instead of sporadically. doing it today did make me tired…but it did it too early. my plane is delayed so i am not leaving for another 1 1/2 hour. I don’t know if i can stay awake that long… 😭

I just heard an ad for Maruchan rice vinegar where the actress pronounced it “Maru-Kahn.” I have never heard that pronunciation in my life. It’s a Japanese company and “chan” is a pretty common sound in that language. Is that person just pronouncing it wrong or am I losing my mind.

why is installing the sims on windows so complicated? i have had to uninstall and reinstall so many times now and i still haven’t fully solved my problem. could this be a higher power telling me to stop wasting my time on this game and do something more productive. maybe.
