Genuinely one of the wildest baseball games I've watched in a while. But hey, whatever it takes, right? Go Guards!!!! ⚾

BFF invites us over for dinner and I ask what time. She says "we're eating really late today, at 6:30!" Us, who usually eat at like 8pm: That's sooooo late, we might be in bed by then 🤣🤣

Direct quote from me: "I'm tired of young white dude protagonists, give me an older Asian woman with creeky knees who can still kill you in an instant any day." Much thanks to Fonda Lee & Shannon Chakraborty for making my dreams come true!

Update on talking cat: Evie used the "help" button for the first time today. I was confused because until now, every button push has been a variation on "play." But she wanted me to open the window for her! She actually did need help! So proud of her for using her words 😻

I'm watching Legends of the Hidden Temple, and I feel so bad for the kids who lose. Their little faces are so disappointed! Then they're like "you're not going away empty handed, you get a gift!" And it's like, a box of nerds or a yoyo 🤣😭 Watching this as an adult just hits different 🤣

Thanks, Gmail, I don't need your bigoted editor.

It's so funny to see the people who actually care about the weather and the people who don't. There's always a couple people in the chat who are like "it's not that bad, it's literally not even raining" and then others who are like "I'm in the basement with my cat."

There have been 6 water main breaks since Jan. 31 in NOLA, and 12 boil water advisories this year so far. When I tell people that the infrastructure in NOLA is so much worse than Cleveland, some think I exaggerate. I don't lol

This is the first year where I truly felt in my bones that "everywhere else, it's just a regular Tuesday." Bradley & I celebrated, but no one else around me cared. I don't actually miss Mardi Gras for a lot of reasons, but it's definitely weird (& wonderful) how contained it is! ⚜️

Found a brewery doing a Mardi Gras party! Having gumbo and beignets after having Popeyes and king cake earlier. A proper unhealthy food day.

Watching The Golden Palace (sequel to Golden Girls), & the episode where Blanche learns about racism & the symbolism of the Confederate flag is still super relevant. Golden Girls has been pretty progressive for a late 80s/early 90s show (although it definitely has its "not funny anymore" moments).

It's truly wild to see so many people speaking out about ICE while staying silent about Palestine, or refusing to believe that Palestine is occupied. If you hate what ICE is doing here in the U.S., you should also hate what Israel is doing to Palestine.

TIL that at Disney, when they close down It's a Small World at night, they turn off the music but not the dolls, so all you hear is the soft clicking of their mouths and eyes, and this is the most terrifying thing I've ever heard.

We're trying to train our new cats to talk using buttons. There's 3 that my cat Evie uses consistently: play, pets, and all done. Just now, she walked in, hit "all done," then went and laid in her bed. I've never felt closer to her 🤣

Did y'all know that the Nuremberg laws were informed by Jim Crow & U.S. immigration laws? Black & Indigenous people have lived under U.S. fascism since the country's inception. The U.S. is not acting like Nazi Germany, it's acting as the U.S. always has.

The journey from cable to streaming and now back to cable is so funny. People complain about paying streaming apps, which I get, but I was paying at least twice as much for cable than I do for apps. You can cut apps off & on willy nilly & do a free trial period, which you couldn't do with cable.

So we can just attack Venezuela for no good reason? This is so wild. It's mind blowing to me how there is just zero lack of accountability for criminal behavior of the U.S. or Israel. Are we living in the twilight zone? Is this an alternate timeline? This is madness.

So the 1980s women's pixie haircut is back in style...as what teen boys call the "blowout taper." 🤣🤣 Every teen boy I see has this haircut, and I can't stop thinking about the 80s "Blanche" style every time I see it 🤣

Happy Winter Solstice! Reminder that Jesus was likely born in September, & Christmas is only celebrated now because powerful Christians wanted to "repurpose" the pagan holidays. Most Christian holidays were in fact scheduled at times to co-opt pagan ones. 😁 Happy celebrating to my fellow pagans!
