I’ve been stuck at home the last 5 days with a bad case of the flu. Had to miss almost a full week of work, but managed to read this amazing book so not all is lost. #booksky
Paperback copy of Reservoir Bitches by Dahlia De La Cerda. The cover is green with a graphic of a black and white mouth baring teeth.

I’ll come up with something next week. Or if you want to make one, that would be great too. I’m currently fighting a bad case of the flu so I can’t think straight 😭

Yeah, you can ask a machine to pretend to be a storyteller or a lover or a painter. You could draw-up your own diploma. You can pay for a ride to a marathon finish-line and throw your arms up in victory. You could 3D print an ear and whisper your hopes and dreams into it. You could mail yourself a love letter or spend an evening singing a lullaby to a plastic doll. You could fake all sorts of human endeavor, but why would you want to?

Yesterday:
a roach that has been dead for a month on a staircase lies in a white matchbox with a coffin drawn on the outside, the coffin has a cross and his name “Roachy.” Behind him are a gray headstone with his name and the date 12-6-25. There are also photos of classy funeral floral arrangements that have been printed and taped to a white wall. One arrangement reads “dad” and another is Green Bay packers themed, another has a cross since the roach was a Christian. There’s a figurine of Jesus, a photo of mourners, an ofrenda, a prayer card, and a potted plant.

The world is falling apart and I’m angry but there’s also a continuously growing memorial at work for a roach that died a month ago and no one has cleaned up. Today he got a coffin:

Wow that’s bleak. I think the worst part is that so many kids now don’t even know HOW to read. I’m scared for when they’re adults and have zero reading comprehension. Things will be interesting in about 10 years when we see the long term results from all of this.

My kid is in 1st grade and the teacher told me that in-class reading of books is completely gone from the curriculum. And my niece in junior high doesn’t have any novels or anything like that in her curriculum either. It’s so sad

Went on StoryGraph to track my recent reading and realized that I had stopped reading around the time I started my new job. Which is also when I hit my sewing slump. Anyway, I’ve been busy and tired, but I’m finding my hobbies again!

My fellow Texas Democrats and I broke quorum to shine a national spotlight on Trump’s redistricting power grab. We inspired other states and millions of Americans to join the fight. Moments ago a federal court struck down his rigged map. This is why we fight back.

🌈 Even after the rainbow was erased, Houstonians made sure its colors stayed. ⠀ After city crews removed the Montrose Pride crosswalk under Gov. Greg Abbott’s directive, new painted rainbows and handwritten messages have appeared around the intersection.

Sewing pattern makers who use GenAI for the finished garment images should be kicked off of every platform for fraud. If you, as the creator, can’t make the garment and take a photo of it, you shouldn’t be selling the pattern.

My Texas voter registration has been pending for 3 MONTHS! The deadline to register is Oct 6 so who knows if I’ll be able to vote. I’ve made so many phone calls and sent emails. Spoke to county officials, Secretary of State people. No one seems to care or is able to help.
