Just doing my part for the environment by being too stressed out to get my period more than 6 or 7 times a year

honestly I want the met gala where a bunch of broke professional artists get funding to come up with their own costumes and the money to get them made. I feel like everybody would sit up fast

Every 12 hours I have to get a pink pill into the cat and a white pill into myself and if I mix them up we'll surely both die. It is taking up my entire mental capacity

I lost my high school spelling bee over the word "tariff" and you'd think the trauma of that coupled with its recent extreme relevance might have burned the spelling into my brain but as it turns out I still cannot spell it

Putting the oldies station on in the car so an instrumental trumpet version of Somewhere Over the Rainbow can be the soundtrack to me screaming and swearing my way out of a Winnipeg ice pothole

I've got a "phantom period" which means no blood but just excruciating pain and an inexplicable desire to lie around googling things like "sonic philosophy"

I told my psychiatrist that therapy rarely works for me and that I prefer to exorcise my demons by making horror comics about them as it's frankly overall just more entertaining, effective, and financially lucrative, and she was like "whatever works works" validation 🫡

Discworld QOTD, from Wyrd Sisters
“The night was as black as the inside of a cat.  It was the kind of night, you could believe, on which the gods moved men as though they were pawns on the chessboard of fate.  In the middle of the elemental storm a fire gleamed among the dripping furze bushes like the madness in a weasel’s eye.  It illuminated three hunched figures.  As the cauldron bubbled an eldritch voice shrieked:  ‘When shall we three meet again?’ There was a pause. Finally another voice said in far more ordinary tones:  ‘Well I can do next Tuesday.’"

Relearning songs for a gig must work on the same principle that music therapy for dementia patients does because my memory is an adhd- and social media-ravaged wasteland but thankfully the tunes come back right away

I like when the name of a new band sounds like the name of an old band and you're like, Oh, kind of a clumsy reference, but sure! But then you realize the new band is so young they just haven't heard of the famous band they accidentally ripped off

Was behind a car with a vanity plate that read "SRSLY" and I was like, Humans shouldn't exist. But the next car had a bumper sticker that said "keep honking I'm listening to Alexisonfire's 2005 Screamo Masterpiece Watch Out" and I was like, Well alright

Harry Potter keeps coming up in the podcasts I listen to lately so now I'm thinking about it all over again, like, this world had 4 types of people: brave, nerds, evil, and perfectly nice i.e. embarrassing, and we were surprised that JK turned out to be kind of unhinged?
