Did a massage today and that was even more painful than usual, apparently I am holding just a wee bit of tension lately. Sore as fuck now

Alright here’s what I hate about Amazon. I got Prime for one week for $1.99 because I wanted to get the kids a waffle maker for cheaper. So then I need a container of Bar Keepers Friend, and I see one for like $7 on Prime, which is so not right. That stuff is cheap! Elsewhere I paid $2.50. IJS wow.

Was letting the dogs out for one last time tonight and I heard a barred owl and its “who cooks for you” call. It’s been a while since I heard an owl here. We used to have them all the time at our last house, and I miss that.

Absolutely not. If we have a LTC struggling to get care after this, how do you think a SPC is faring? Fuck this bullshit.

When you’re young, you think you’ll live forever or die real fast. (Especially in the military.) Then you get old and your friends have Shitty Health Things happen and what the actual fuck is this? (Especially when we are veterans I guess)

Optogenetics gets the award this year. Cool technology, and a solid example of what US research funding + international collaboration can do. And why we should protect basic research and promote creativity in the lab.

So I harvested my flour corn, and shelled it off the cob, and holy hell is that stuff tough. Grain mills are expensive so I formed a plan. I scored a neglected kitchenaid mixer on marketplace. Fixed and cleaned it up. Next I find a grain mill attachment for cheap. And I have a useful kitchen tool.

Picked some berries for a snack and lavender for tea. Both are slowing down now so I might as well enjoy what’s left.

The government has completely parted ways with the Constitution over some cult of personality. And here we are just shrugging our shoulders and going about our days. “Just wait it out and fix it after” is what I’ve seen some people saying. I just…

it’s become so normal for people to disclose their rapes to appeal to people’s humanity around rape cases that we don’t think about how disgusting the need to do that is put the worst moment of your life out for public consumption, so that half the comments can call you a liar.

Something tried to build a nest in my dryer duct. I guess the new end cap they installed this spring isn’t a good deterrent. Gonna have to get a new one. I figured it was time to have my own duct cleaning kit anyway… the duct runs through the attic.

Perhaps his holiness means “exhorts” because “extolls” doesn’t make any sense here. But hey who needs words to mean things in 2026. We don’t need people who know things anymore. Happy to be a pagan with a DD-214 from the days of No Religious Test…

Nature is doing nature things again. Had a new butterfly emerge today unable to fly. Its wing didn’t unfurl correctly. So I set it in the zinnias to live as well as possible. This hanging J caterpillar may be the last one of the year- I don’t see any more of them on the tiny bits of milkweed left.
A new monarch with a crumpled wing, it cannot fly. It is wandering around some zinnias.An empty chrysalis on the left, probably the new butterfly. Another ready to go any minute now.A chonk caterpillar ready to form a chrysalis.

These are terrible things to have to know, but I think it’s demonstrative of how nasty these industries are and how much they think they can get away with. If you want to attend parties like that of your own free will- by all means go! But for work purposes or networking? Extra exploitation cringe.

I will be okay. Not because everything is fine, but because I am surprisingly difficult to destroy. Says Skeletor who notices being hard to destroy sure doesn’t mean a bunch of asshoes don’t keep trying.

These hydrangeas are crazy big. So pretty though. I just have to get the pruning figured out this winter.

So, wait. For basically ever, men were earning way more than their female counterparts, and the messaging was that women were "too emotional" or whatever. And the second women start earning more than men, men completely lose their shit and it's a "crisis" "gripping" them? What a bunch of losers.
