Wow! With the wonderful new DLSS 5 technology, we can finally see the real way Miyamoto envisioned Mario in his hit game '64'! Technology is amazing

The sight of Shane and Ilya kissing had awakened a libidinal desire in many women, both heterosexual and queer, like an army of sleeper-cell agents hungry for more. There’s a word for this. In our new cover story, E. Alex Jung takes you on a tour of the fujoshi universe: tinyurl.com/3c3stbw7

I started Trails Beyond the Horizon - I needed something nice in my life because on the work front I am suffering - and I don’t know what I expected of the prologue but a long series of scenes set to tropical music where literally everyone at the work dinner hits on Van Arkride was not it.

A rabbi asked his pupils how they could tell when the night had ended and the day was on its way back.
“Could it be,”asked one student, “when you can see an animal in the distance and tell whether it is a sheep or a dog?”
“No,” answered the rabbi. “
Could it be,” asked another, “ when you can look at a tree in the distance and tell whether it is a fig tree or a peach tree?” 
“No,” said the rabbi. 
“Well, then what is it?” his pupils demanded. 
“It is when you look on the face of any woman or man and see that they are your sister or brother. Because if you cannot do this, then no matter what time it is, it is still night.”

Well, here we are. Nairobi overall fell under the category of “not a disaster” but between the jet lag, the inevitable post-trip gastro thing, a badly timed med increase, and my rapidly decreasing supply of fucks to give, I’m just… not doing great.

Finishing up here in NBO and it was not an easy week, but I don’t think it was a disaster week like my last trip. Partly, I just planned to take breaks during the day and that made a huge fucking difference.

My week has just been brutal. Up first: Thought I was in permanent menopause (chemo does this), I wasn't! Surprise! Now I'm having a period so brutal I actually dragged myself to the doctor today. I cannot emphasize how godforsakenly tired I am.

Not doing great over here, honestly. I’m not sure what’s wrong with me; today I’ve just felt nauseous and anxious and I cannot get out of my head. Yesterday I could at least get outside; today it was snowing and dark and I’m tired.

It’s been an awful week at work. I genuinely don’t think I’ve felt worse at my job since 2014, right before I got let go because my boss didn’t like me and wanted to hire his buddy from the board.

Re my last repost - that lawsuit turns my stomach because I knew the person suing the journalist in undergrad, and reached out when this happened to offer some support. I thought the conversation around what she said was unfair in some ways.

It’s just been such a shitty two weeks. I can’t help myself from running it all in my head over and over, like that will actually help me deal with it or prepare for the next thing. Which it won’t, but. I’m so tired.

God, I feel awful. I’ve been working so hard and this thing today hit me like a fucking truck. I keep trying to go over it in my head, except honestly I was in such a panic mode that I barely remember half of it.

Super fun to get through last week, recover physically and somewhat mentally, and then get ambushed with a meeting (titled “(No title)” and sent two hours ahead of the meeting) where two senior managers chastised me for being disrespectful for raising issues I genuinely thought were important.

I survived the week. It was… not the best week. I’m still in a lot of pain, which is a new thing - I didn’t do anything more physically strenuous than walking a lot and dealing with luggage a couple times, but my hands and wrists hurt really badly, and not just the tendinitis on the right.

The Third Reich didn't last 1,000 years. Pinochet was ousted with a referendum. And the US isn't exactly dealing with the smartest, most competent fascists. Those of you insisting that 2025 is forever need to read a book, touch grass, go to therapy, anything other than trying to make others quit.

So it turns out that taking the drug even SLIGHTLY on time made a huge difference. For every doctor who has praised me on my obsessive health literacy, the counterforce is my psychiatrist, who knows how fucking stupid I can be.
