I just need to know if this is actually a real thing he needs to do, because I would rather not engage with him as I've seen and heard him screaming at women. I am very tempted to buy a boombox and blare one song over and over again while he is "working" but he is already terrorizing our block...

Sometimes he brings a little grill and uses our yard to grill him up a lunch, dinner, and/or midnight snack. Leaves his trash.

This random dude who doesn't live on my street has decided that our block, specifically in front of my house, is where he needs to do this. The car is drivable-- he speeds off every now and again, moving his spot when street cleaning is on our side of the street.

Anybody know anything about cars? Is there a repair or diagnostic reason that someone would need to noisily rev their engine repeatedly for hours, every day for months?

i think we could really make a difference in literacy rates for teens if we did a pizza hut BOOK IT type program except the prize is that they are allowed to vape

seriously never seen a bird that looked this delicious. a real lemon merengue up there. wish my phone camera wasn't a potato

A bright, creamy, melted-butter yellow bird sitting on a branch. Its head is tilted, turned towards the camera but looking off into the sky while its body is facing the left. It looks like it knows it is gorgeous, with a slight sass in that head tilt. It is likely a leucistic goldfinch, identified by birdsong and the male goldfinch just off camera that was sticking close to it, but the camera quality is trash from not being able to get closer.

It moved! Same bird, same branch, now facing the right with its head tilted backwards slightly. Again, it seems to have an attitude to it such that I can't help but think it knows how fabulous it is.
No wing bars, no other colors. It is purely yellow with a lighter, creamier yellow at the ends of its legs, tail, and wings with the most saturated and lemony yellow at its head and chest.

i was reading an opinion piece about violence against cyclists and i just had to sit back and have a bit of a think because yeah, why is it like this i don't want to make everything about gender and gendered violence, so... um... i saw a cool bird the other day. a real lemon cream puff of a bird.

y'all ever think about how people ask "well what was he wearing" and "well what did he do to deserve it" when someone hits a cyclist with their SUV and/or truck before asking why the driver hit the cyclist and how 'protected bike lanes' are "DEI" apparently

is it not exhausting? to be Right and have Perfect Takes all the time and to only follow Perfect People who have no shadows? this urge to shove how Right you are down others' throats until you're Blocked then do it again the next day? well try looking at a fucking heron once i beg of you

Wren, a feral mannequin (is taking a break!) @mannequinrentals.help · 25/05/2026

i just think it's Weird to feel compelled to dig up old shit and share intrusive takes about some random person you've never met or wage some kind of online war for someone whose Posts you Enjoy who doesn't even know you exist. please talk about herons instead. will no one think about the herons.

our foster dog foster failed. i now have 3 dogs, 2 being high anxiety & selectively reactive. my orange cat must be sedated to be allowed to go to the vet. it is easier and more natural to care for and train them than it is to deal with people. i am a spreadsheet jockey by trade but a dog at heart.

i am constantly overstimulated by the news and being scapegoated and used as a prop to destroy healthcare. autism is better than measles tbh. i started taking medicine to deal with the overstimulation. it makes me drowsy. it's an antihistamine, believe it or not, but i don't want to use benzos.

thankfully, attending protests regularly and hanging out with old ladies there. many such ladies. we were forced back to the office, half our staff tested positive for COVID this week and i got push back for suggesting we work remotely in the days following contact even if not testing positive.

Wren, a feral mannequin (is taking a break!) @mannequinrentals.help · 12/03/2026

minor life updates and proof of life: i am ok, hope you're all ok. i have a lot of work responsibilities that are dragging me down. i am bound by a code of conduct that does not allow me to send nasty emails to john fetterman or shapiro anymore & can only protest on non-work days (even if using pto)

Wren, a feral mannequin (is taking a break!) @mannequinrentals.help · 12/03/2026

yes i will gladly pay bail money for a college student who got arrested for refusing to leave the governor's mansion during a protest. but that doesn't mean we need to make it their responsibility to leverage their own future so we can keep up relations with our bosses. fucking sick behavior. shame.

Wren, a feral mannequin (is taking a break!) @mannequinrentals.help · 12/03/2026

something i have noticed is that we Grown Adults expect teenagers & young adults to bear the burden of the protest and change we want to see in the world. we "sponsor" young college students to pay their bus fare and bail money so they'll get arrested and beaten by cops for us while we stay at work

Lovely to see you too!! (And no worries, I'm just glad they are still relevant and helpful!)

Wren, a feral mannequin (is taking a break!) @mannequinrentals.help · 20/09/2025

Yup! Our other pitbull, also a rescue, is on prozac. Took about 6 months to a year to get to a good stable place on it. The training piece is the other half of the equation, and this new foster has some issues that I've never dealt with before. But we're getting there! With love & drugs & time.

See? They are such boyfriends. Can't keep their mouths off each other.

Tony the black pitbull/sharpei mix laying with Bam on a big round chocolate brown dog bed. Bam's white belly is visible as he rolls around, and one front paw is blurry from motion as he smacks at Tony's face. Tony is busy gnawing on Bam's face.

Tony is laying half on the round brown dog bed, his front paws gripping Bam's upside down head. Bam is rolling around on his back on the wood floor with his front paws in the air, and they are chewing on each other's faces.

Tony and Bam laying upright together. Bam is taking a breather but Tony is gnawing on Bam's one brown ear because he wants to continue chewing each other's faces.

If you can't donate it's ok, sharing so it reaches others is good too. Have you ever heard of a dog being on ADHD meds? I never considered that one day I'd be in line at CVS to pick up my dog's and my own ADHD meds. What a world we live in. It keeps us both from screaming all day.

eustace hi!!! Happy to see you too! And thank you, he's a big beautiful baby boy and I know this people stop their cars in the middle of traffic to tell me so.

Wren, a feral mannequin (is taking a break!) @mannequinrentals.help · 20/09/2025

He is lovely and affectionate and extremely smart, he loves to learn tricks, but he also loves to eat seatbelts & leashes and is still learning to not play bite people & not scream all day. Training and evals cost money, and he isn't their only dog in this situation. If you want to donate please do.

Wren, a feral mannequin (is taking a break!) @mannequinrentals.help · 20/09/2025

When he was at the shelter, there was a nasty bug being passed around. He & the other dogs had extended quarantines, which seriously impacted some of their emotional and behavioral development. If you can spare it, the rescue group has several of those dogs who need specialized training and evals.

Also, this is our new foster dog. He is on ADHD meds. Like for real. We and the rescue agency are doing our best for him to get him adoptable (he might be a foster fail tbh, he and our other pitbull are best friends and boyfriends now i guess). If you can help, read on or share please!

Bam, a warm brown and white pitbull, walking down the sidewalk with a big red and purple ball in his mouth. He has a jaunty gait, one of his white tipped feet is extended out in front of him, and he is paying absolutely zero attention to me as I take his picture. He is extremely pleased with his ball and focused on carrying it.
He is wearing a purple and black harness, and his face is mostly white except for his black nose and the swoop of brown across the top of his head and one ear.

Bam, having dropped his red ball on the sidewalk and wanting to stop to chew on it more effectively, standing with his legs apart in a sturdy stance to prevent us from continuing the walk. He is looking into the camera with his dopey looking little blue eyes. He had to have eyelid surgery so his eyes are extra dopey looking. His white tipped tail is wagging hard and his ears are perked, as the walk and the ball are extremely exciting, and it is difficult to pick which activity he wants to do.

hi, i love you. in theory & concept, i still exist. in practice, not so much. i hope you are all as well as you can be and fighting the good fight. i am scared but i am alive. i made a protest quilt. did you know i could quilt? me neither. cat tax below. ok i love you goodbye for another year maybe?

A small quilt in the trans pride flag colors, light blue, light pink, and white. Each quilt square is either plain with no print, has floral prints, stars and constellations, or woodland creatures such as foxes and owls. It is bound in a thin strip of rainbow plaid fabric the whole way around. It does not yet have text on it, but I will iron on words to use this at a protest.

The opposite side of the protest quilt. It is the progress flag colors-- a rainbow flag with a triangle on the side in white, pink, blue, brown, and black. The quilt squares are mostly solid, but some contain florals or stars. It is bound in a rainbow plaid fabric. The inside is actually a pocket so I can slip a piece of cardboard in between the quilt to hold it up at a protest.

A picture of my beautiful brown tabby cat with tortoiseshell markings named Allie Cat. She is sitting on my sewing table in front of a white floral quilt with a yellow green binding that I was binding by hand. Her green eyes are looking calmly toward me as I take her picture, and her expression is one of quiet pleasure.

Allie Cat again, sitting on top of fabric squares on my cutting surface. Her back leg is in the air because she was licking her butt hole on top of my nice fabric squares. The fabrics are bright and happy colors, lots of teals and yellows, with cute flowers and birds.

Alt text for the link thumbnail: Tony, a black sharpei and pitbull mix puppy, laying on his stomach on the grass with a blue whale stuffed toy between his white-tipped paws. He is looking into the camera with his soulful brown eyes, and his ears are perked in curiosity.

Thank you, but my employer is not my healthcare provider or health insurance carrier. HIPAA does not apply here. Whether I disclose this fundamental aspect of my self won't open anyone up to a lawsuit, she just doesn't want some of the... less kind coworkers to find out. Every workplace has 'em.
