good news: Rubber plant saved from my sister’s place where it faced near extinction bad news: Rubber plant won’t stop growing and now it’s getting too big to live on the fireplace mantle away from the cat What to do 🤔

Reading a book about a sassy cat, while sitting on my patio with a catio, while my cat looks for squirrels. Wearing old man slippers and ugly-patterned pj pants that a friend gave me a decade ago. JD Vance would so hate me if he knew me.

My besties mom never remembers my name, but I’m invited over for ribs at their house tomorrow. We’ve decided I’m going to go by “Krista” all evening to see if she notices. Maybe my sense of humor is also why she never remembers me. 🤔

I’ve had a rather hellish week for reasons that don’t fit into a BSky character limit, but tomorrow’s plans to eat ribs and then go play Mahjong with friends & fam is enough to get through. complaint I’ll share: being in an insurance battle leaving my AC unfixed and my home a toasty 88F 🥵🔥🥵🔥

Psst. Anyone posting partisan stuff about Dolly less than 24hrs after her passing is probably either a bot or someone who doesn’t know they’re reacting to a bot. It’s a good day to be kind and block.

This girl I used to waitress with in Austin, we moved to New York together in 2003 on a literal Greyhound bus. Shared a fifth floor walk-up studio that, when it rained, had more leaks in the ceiling than we had pots and pans. We used to get drunk and smoke off the fire escape and do “sad-offs.”

Went to a coffeeshop with my oldest niece so we could both work, and we ended up on a side quest to research how water entered ancient Earth & know which came first: rain or oceans. We both can confidently answer the water questions and both still have a lot of work to finish. #science #adhd

Can we just admit that attempting to set a world record for “largest group Malört shot” is a marketing stunt, being as almost no one outside of Chicago drinks it and it only became trendy again in recent years. Guinness just making stuff up now 😆 #chicago #malört

People who say that taking GLP-1’s are cheating are the same people that aren’t actually happy for you when you’re genuinely happy in your life. Live your life how you want to & take your GLP-1, get your cosmetic surgery, wear your makeup…or don’t! Minding one’s business is ⭐️ and judging is 😴

Celebrated the AC working too soon. The fan was running but the air wasn't cooling. Turns out the power surges during the storms “burned off the compressor terminal and blew out the entire refrigerant load”. C’est La Vie #powersurge #ac

White Sox fans by and large seem to be pretty on board with the Castillo trade. But I’m curious if Rays fans think acquiring Peralta is a good thing. On paper, I’m thinking it’s a bit disappointing, but I dont follow the Mets nor Rays close enough to have a very informed take. #baseball #mlb
