After discovering that I was being my own worst enemy, I solved a problem and graded all my freshman comp class's essays. God I hate how much I love teaching writing. It's literally the best. Also, @luxuryelite.bsky.social 's live transmission on @neonnights.bsky.social was my soundtrack. A+.

Yes, and I am proud as hell to say that NONE of my hobbies are gainful in any way other than to me. Everything else is service. What a jerk.

I took BlueSky off my phone so I can only access it from a computer now. But y'all should know that I had SO MANY BANGER IDEAS in the middle of the night and now they are LOST to time!

My fellow chronic illness/autoimmune buds, I can't adequately describe the brain fog I'm experiencing. Zero focus, even after my Adderall, caffeine, food, water, etc. Inability to stay awake. Allodynia. Just needed to plant this somewhere. I hate that I just have to wait this out. But I will.

I have only had negative experiences with their pickup because of the lack of customer service (corporate, not individual). And that’s coast to coast, from Baltimore to Seattle. When I have the extra cash, I get delivery. It takes A LOT to get me inside that store.

Definitely rewatching the first two TWILIGHT movies. And eating my late father’s favorite snack (an open-face peanut butter sandwich with maple syrup on top).

what are some questionable influencer-driven sites/YouTube channels that cover health/food stuff? I need to find some for my students to see what unreliable sources look like. TikTok will also do since that’s what most of them use all the time.

I splurged and got myself a very cute Disney Aristocats pinafore (by Torrid) on ebay. NWT. I can’t figure out how to tie it because there are no buttons other than the decorative ones down the front. YouTube is no help. Any ideas? The straps are very long.
