Just spent 20 minutes ordering a bunch of horror books for our leisure reading collection. They wont get in until long after spooky season is over, but whatever people can still enjoy them at other times. Thank Reading Glasses podcast and my book club for a few of my choices lol.

I cannot believe I just saw a smear article about Abdul El Sayed farting in public. Have any of the people in the making of this article ever met a man? They cant find any oppo research. Its all he isnt a real doctor because he didnt do patient treatment enough and he has normal bodily functions. K.

I did mistime the bus due to the reroute so now i either have to go buy white castle at 8am or stand here for 15 minutes. I really wish this were another fast food place. A nice overpriced breakfast sammy does sound good right now.

Love being honked at for not crossing when the ped crossing is red and another lane of traffic is turning. Trust i know when my likelihood of dying is smallest bro. Yes the red light takes forever because its a major intersection, but they give peds the bare minimum to cross so its not our fault

Welp I cant cross stitch like I planned, but i am nice and cozy so the morning is going well so far. For context my legs are crossed under the blanket and its laying on the outer one and using that foot as a pillow.

Oh and my friend gave me this as a belated bday present. I have been kinda slacking on reading romance and mostly getting lit fic and fantasy with no or minor romance. Itll be nice to delve back in. The challenges are mostly things to get you to read diversely + different tropes, but should be fun.
The ultimate romance reading challenge. Complete a goal, open an envelope, and reveal your prize.

Okay started remarkably bright creatures and this book is that bitch. Its good. Im glad this made it into a lot of hands and got a good film adaptation. There have been a few stinkers that got very big and its always so frustrating.

Omg the tornado sirens must be located right by my new place and I must not have been home last month. It was deafening. And the poor cat was by an open window when if started. I am gonna have to lure him out from under the bed. Between this and a hairball he has been taking hit after hit today...

1. Tonight at Gillette Stadium, Zach Bryan, one of the biggest country music artists in the world, wore a Free Palestine shirt onstage. Gillette Stadium is owned by Robert Kraft, who pushed Ed Sheeran and his promoter to drop Macklemore from his tour. Bryan isn’t just a major country artist.

Oop. Doing a diversity audit and caught a mistake on Wikipedia. Unfortunately I have been using wiki if the authors website is more of a resume than about me. I try to check the original source but often links are broken. Oh well, I will just avoid it going forward. There were always gonna be errors

Hmm not until middle school when my boobs started to get bigger. Even my dad was weird and I started wearing a bra to bed when I slept over there. Oh and a male teacher calling me on shorts being too short from behind. Sir you are taller than me the only reason to look down there is to check me out.

“It’s not ALL men.” None of the 50+ men the Cornell rapists invited to come join them in raping a woman they’d drugged went to the authorities or tried to stop it. Not all men would rape an unconscious woman, but where are the men who’d try to stop it, or EVEN FUCKING OBJECT?

I feel like absolute shit after forgetting my meds. And like every choice I made today since then was the absolute worst one I could have made and compounded the bad feelings. Including laying down when I got home and forgetting to take meds a Second time. Girl.

Oh to be rich enough to never have to fill out another form myself for the rest of my life, or drive myself home, or shop or exchange phone numbers with someone? I mean can you imagine this man alone during some health emergency. They are gonna think he lost his memory, but no hes just a baby man.

Kitty was so good and let me nap after work without waking me even when I laid there bed rotting past kibble time. And what do I do? Step directly on his tail because I didnt have my glasses on. Poor boy.

Having a runny nose in a mask is so gross. 30 minute bus ride dedicated to me wanting to wipe my nose and not being able to without exposing everyone to my lingering cold. Plus I apparently dont have tissues so I am quite screwed.

Oh good. Not at all a problem that grocers often repackage meat into smaller portions with their own info on it so you cant always see the product information mentioned in this post...

I have been up since 2:30 this morning and my eye is twitching. Today was supposed to be super productive as my first day back after 2.5 sick days. But I dont think that's in the cards.

We've had a good seven minute play session with this little slinky worm toy. He fucking loves this thing today during the morning zoomies.

So I grabbed the wrong food flavor yesterday and kitty actually re-rejected the fish, and will still eat the chicken. I got a new chicken out and pulled what appears to be a large piece of rubber or plastic out of the food. So yeah back to cheap ass cans that dont play in my face. Human grade my ass

My favorite is when people who have no experience of a thing think they can talk all day about a thing. If you don't have ADHD, then how do you "know" it's over-diagnosed? If you don't need SSRIs, then how do you "know" others don't need them? This is literally basic empathy.

I've been forgetting to mask on the very crowded bus in the mornings and now am I paying the price. I slept like shit due to poor nose functioning, a cough and still struggling to wear cpap. I shall be bed rotting for the day.

Welp new cat food was a bust. But it threw off little man's schedule so badly that we somehow circled back onto his pre-move schedule and he isnt begging for food all fucking day...so it was actually a success. And now I can go back to cheaper food...

Amtrak didn’t tell us about this exposure, so heads up: if you took an Amtrak train last week through Chicago or anywhere on the Southwest Chief, Coast Starlight, or California Zephyr routes like we did, you may have been exposed to measles! Please let the train people in your life know about this

I was gonna try to work today. And then I got a reference question about how to navigate different periodicals in different t fields in the library like Nature and The Economist and is there a list of all of them? Lol I'm out. My brain cannot today.

Providence by Max Berry was fucking wild scifi, but no one read it. I just stumbled on it in our library collection somehow during lockdown. And The Lilac People by Milo Todd isnt talked about as much as it should be.

For real. People are like why are you scared of your cat, you are bigger than him? Bitch he runs way faster, can climb me like a tree and sink them claws and teeth in deep and through clothing if he wants. I am lucky he does not want and likes the head scritches and warming himself on my legs more.
