notable that the only other rising trend is "set/respect boundaries" which reeeeeally should have been split into two, since "set boundaries" is often "dump him, jr." lol

it's pretty amazing how many people are clearly relying purely on the sensation of their tires scraping the curb to line their car up while parking. our curbs are old and pretty eroded so people simply drive over them and into our grass and flowers.

we've got a huge new flowerbed cooking to be planted in the fall, but before then we're mainly gonna be weeding this year. aside from that we're thinking about getting another birdbath & finding a small boulder the size of a medium boulder to put on the corner bed where cars drive over our flowers 😇

devastating: something has eaten both shooting star stems before they had a chance to bloom. reminding myself "if nothing's eating your garden, it's not part of the ecosystem." there's always next year!

drove past a church I've never noticed before so now I'm reading their whole website and is it just me or is "if you've never read the bible before, start with john" totally unhinged

Let's be real, the fact that the Oscars are kind of becoming a series of consolation prizes given to people who are "due" for it is ridiculous and undermines the awards. No one should be "due" for an Oscar because the award is ostensibly for their work on a given movie.

my big corporate landlord may try to raise my rent, but they are never going to decide to do a sudden inspection because they're feeling insecure about all their assets being wrapped up in my home, or try to make up some sketchy rule I have to follow

radicalizing against the rhetoric that makeup can be self-expression & art bc it inevitably attracts women saying things like "that's why advice on how to choose flattering colors is totally feminist, it's like art school" and not realizing "women are canvases" is the definition of objectification.
