So tired I feel like I’m gonna barf. Will get up in a minute and go back to bed, but that Greek yogurt was a bad idea. I also hate the incredibly loud, piercing beep my oxygen concentrator makes when starting up at 0345, but I need it, so I hope everyone in the complex sleeps through it.

I realized earlier today that almost every post I was reading was a man explaining how Cornell affected them. I had to log off for the afternoon. I'm too tired.

I got called a cunt today, on the sidewalk in front of my house, for the crime of daring to talk to a bus driver who was blocking traffic. He got out of his car to start toward us and I hustled everyone inside mid conversation. My daughter got up from bed to make sure the door was locked tonight.

Good job, California. 15 states to go. No child should marry. A child who marries isn’t emancipated, her (and it’s usually a girl) new spouse becomes her guardian. If he abuses her, she cannot go to a domestic violence shelter. She cannot initiate a divorce. She can’t have her own money.

I have never understood the Greek system, or the supposed benefits they endow upon their members. I specifically went to a college without one, because even then I was wary of a campus culture that supports them.

Oikos protein shakes are a nice balance between cost and price. Premiere Protein tastes *awful*. The powder I was using ended up costing about as much as a pre-made one factoring in soy milk. The best tasting one I tried was Slate, but they are $4 each.

I hate to say this, but I may end up having to get my mattress from the House of Bezos. Looking at local store prices (even Costco!), and they are all more than I can probably afford. I didn’t think the river retailer had mattresses, but they do.

If those who benefited from the status quo had been willing to listen instead of sabotaging the #MeToo movement, we’d be in a very different place right now. Same story w/ BLM and so much more. But it’s not too late to rise in collective solidarity now to create a more possible world for everyone.

Cheeks are bright, intense pink again. This is so weird. 🫨 It doesn’t happen when I have tea during the day, so I don’t think it’s that. Maybe it’s something I’m eating in the evening? I’m annoyed.

So Trump told reporters in the White House today that “Canada are going to come in and say, ‘Sir, we are sorry’…” Trump is managed to do something I didn’t think was possible — guarantee that Canadians will never say “sorry.”

Ah. Bro is now thinking that we will tow my car in a trailer behind his truck. After reading reviews of all the companies that got back to me with car shipping quotes, all but one have MANY one star reviews on Trustadvisor. I don’t actually know how good a website that is, but that’s a lot.

I found the slippers I was looking for! I honestly thought I had lost them forever, somewhere in the house, but nope. The box was just buried under books. And in a first, my feet, which are usually very swollen, fit right in them with no issues! \o/

[CN. Food] 602) Spicybot. Checks your meal to ascertain how spicy it is before you dig in and ruin a perfectly good tongue. Its antenna flashes green, amber, or red as appropriate, and is calibrated to your own endurance. #SmallRobotsRemastered
An ovoid robot with banded arms and legs. It stands beside a plate of food, which is drawn in a soft, pastel style (because it's hard to draw realistic-looking food in the standard style). The meal looks like a curry, with rice and a triangular samosa (or possibly a folded chapati) on one side. The robot is putting a fork or spoon into its mouth, its eyes are widened, and its eyebrows are raised very high. A banded antenna on its top is lit up, its cheeks are flushed, and two beads of sweat have formed on its brow.
