Because I saw Jorts on my feed today I thought I would repost this for anyone who doesn't already know, and for anyone who wants a cozy refresher.

Been having fun recovering from a shoulder injury back in the spring (5 months ago) through PT but it wasn't getting where I wanted so it was MRI time, yesterday. The results notes are full of words like "tear" and "irregularity," not that I was expecting anything different. Alas.

[at a restaurant] Me: Ah, yes. I’d like some Stilton on oatcake biscuits, with some fig jam on the side, and a nice glass of Port. Them: Ma’am, this is a McDonald’s. Me: Oh, silly me! Yes, go ahead and super size it.

Two weekends, two walks along the warehouse where the kid has derby practice. Most of these weren't in tire paths, but they'd work their way there over time.

Yesterday Jennifer and I went to the Atlanta ballet for a three-performance medley. Great dancing, wonderful time as always. Except that the last performance was a America-Hoo-Raw dance from 1955 and I gotta tell you I am not in the mood for heavy stars and stripes nationalism right now

I just honestly can't get over that Save Women Sports, an anti-trans group could only find five trans athletes competing K through 12. Five. The NCAA president testified a year and a half ago or so that there were less than 10 college level trans athletes. What the fuck are we doing, people

Okay so @defector.com has had an odd glitch since the site redesign a couple of weeks back where the wrong photo and headline are often put together on the main page and I was going to ask them about fixing it but this just happened and as far as I'm concerned they have to leave it as is.

Screenshot for a Defector podcast episode with the headline "Consider the Emotional Lives of Scallops" only the accompanying photo is a white gormless stubbled red-headed UK singer of recent notoriety giving a flat smile to the camera while wearing a washed out peach top as beige as he is against a flat background. So, actually, probably a scallop anyway.

Post of the morning. We're converting our "Dining room" into a craft and art room. Yesterday's task was to paint a wooden bookshelf that has migrated around the country with my family. Know stops include NH, AL, and now GA. It's been in the garage for a while so stain-blocking primer paint is up
