Upon actually getting sleep, I recall something. And I will need to double check my medications for side effects, sigh. Before not-committing-arson-because-my-asthma-says-no goddammit.

(Stretches legs) Yeah so if the latest Bullshit is what I think it is and *yet another sleep related disorder* I just might go commit arson. There's gotta be somewhere in this town that deserves that. (This is a joke, I promise. My asthma already says NO.)

So who was going to tell me that eyelid tremors was an MCAS thing? (If you guessed 'not a medical professional', you guessed correctly!) @rahaeli.bsky.social @niq.aeli.net I know one of you will hit me with the Hista-meme. I officially need to restart my search for a MCAS dr person I think.

Okay i know you said you didn't want advice but, just in case, have you heard about how antihistamines help with that side effect for the covid vaccine specifically?

The idea that disabled people must be constantly visibly suffering to "prove" we're disabled is just the adult version of "if you're too sick for school, you're too sick for TV."

I very much want to read this one. Pope Leo summoned Gareth Gore to the Vatican awhile back for a closed-door meeting about which Gore - who has desperately tried to get multiple popes to give a fuck about his reporting - said little except that he left feeling good about where they left things 👀

Actually can I be the "autistic who can translate the technical language into plain language for those who need things simplified" because when my brain is on right that is one of my mad skillz? I can also write Information in Simple English.

The most absolutely massive flex from the state fair exhibit. This quilt is made of 40 years of prize ribbons from various categories at the New Mexico State Fair won by Carol St. Clair Johnson. She also won a prize for this quilt.

O Fair New Mexico-41 Fair Years
2023
satin ribbons

After unexpectedly winning her first blue ribbon for a sewn cape in 1981, Carol St. Clair Johnson developed an enduring love for the New Mexico State Fair. The quilt Fair New Mexico-41 Fair Years incorporates more than six hundred of the ribbons she won at the fair every subsequent year except 2020 (when the fair was canceled because of the COVID-19 pandemic). Johnson earned ribbons for needlework, knitting, crochet, pies, cookies, cakes, canning, jewelry, flowers, vegetables, and potted plants. The title of the quilt is a reference to the state song, and the design places the state's Zia sun symbol at the center. The quilt earned Johnson yet another ribbon: Best in Category (miscellaneous quilt) at the 2023 New Mexico State Fair.

Yup. 💯 I do flonase, azelastine, and advair twice a day and my mouth sure has. Sure has a Flavor after that. Sure does.

Chroma @chromatographic.bsky.social · 07/09/2026
Minor note about azelastine as someone who needs it 2x daily: Be warned for the Taste. Its the worst of my nasal sprays/inhalers. Absolutely worth it! But the Taste is... sure is a thing.
