One of those days that I think about how much joy I get from being a mom, and a mom to my kids' friends as well. For me, it has helped keep my spirit young and curious.

Reminded by @avartwork.bsky.social that it's Bandcamp Friday. If you can, this is the time to support your favorite indie artists. All proceeds go directly to them. $5 to your indie artist goes much further than $40 to Sony.

Everyone remembers the nice pond stuff about Thoreau's WALDEN but they forget about his extremely opinionated rants on clothes, aggressively promoting nudism, and his wishes we all still slept in leather sacks in the snow. I love all this by the way. He was a thoughtful but hilarious dude.

Every day in October my kids get to pick from the treat bag of various tricks and treats, and pull the day's joke or riddle from the light up Halloween Advent calendar. Day 1: What is a witches' favorite drink? Mugwort.

Whenever I roll my eyes at others watching Hallmark channel movies, I scold myself and remember that one of my favorite movies is a puppet monster in a basket that has a meltdown and throws a TV. Which is also dumb. So let people like what they like. What matters more is that they aren't assholes.

I've been watching a guy living in his tiny kei truck house traveling the forests of Japan, & I started rereading WALDEN because I'm in my forest witch season. The gift of an imagination is that sometimes I'm really almost there and not here.

ESPN The Ocho on YouTube is probably the most amazing way to spend 3 hours. Slippery Stairs competition, pillow Fighting mma, pizza acrobat, trex world championship dash, sky-nos race which is literally ppl in trex costumes skydiving to the ground then running a race. This is peak TV.

I would say, "please shoot me in the face", because oh man, but unfortunately I like things like blowing bubbles for cats, weeds in tough places, and the way fall smells like bonfires, so I guess I'm here to grit and bear it all.

I'm exhausted in a way that is beyond getting sleep & rest. Laboring to breathe day in & day out & the pain that comes w/ it is starting to wear at my mental health. But just when I think I can't anymore, you all show me how much you care & want to help. I am tired, but I am so blessed. Thank You 💗

While I detest smoking in every way, & it would kill me, a part of me wishes I did smoke cigarettes. Bc standing outside in the dark, silently taking drags just trying to survive life speaks a deep feeling of exhaustion & sadness you can't properly describe otherwise. Anyway, picture me smoking.

This Finch self care app has helped me build routine and good self care habits, while also teaching me self compassion through daily repetition. I know it's a silly gameified list app, but in all seriousness, I needed this little bird to grow & cheer me on.

PSA for the old folks like me, your skin changes its needs throughout your life. I recently did a skin reset and found that I need something gentler since I grew out of acne. Take time to reconsider what products you really need in your hygiene, bc the internet will have you believe it's everything.
