Great news! My right ankle is only sprained, not broken. I broke both my tibia and fibula on the left though, but it doesn’t look like I’ll need surgery.

I broke my ankles Friday night (I stepped off the porch wrong). I start a new job tomorrow, 16 months after I took a medical leave from the last one for what turned out to be cancer. It will be HOT tomorrow. I’m so anxious. There are too many unknowns so I can’t just be excited for my new job.

Your reminder that fairy tales are full of stepmothers because women once routinely died in childbirth, from postpartum sepsis, or from other infectious diseases and left behind housefuls of motherless children. Stable nuclear families are made possible by vaccines, antibiotics, and safe abortions.

Even if everything changed tomorrow — church, government, the world itself — I will celebrate Pride until my dying day.

I will celebrate for those who died hoping.
For those who died weeping.
For those who lived in shadows and shame.
For those who were told the God of Love could never love them — and believed it.

I will celebrate Pride with glitter on my cheeks.
With arms full of mom hugs.
With eyes full of tears.

I will celebrate Pride.

Gen AI is bullshit. No one who is creative needs it. It doesn't replicate or replace skills. It doesn't add value. It is a thievery machine. It's talent from TEMU -- you order a blender, but it robs a pet store and brings you a snake. It's not a tool in a toolbox. It's cowshit. Hope this helps.

I’m moving in with my boyfriend later this summer. Thoughts/advice on moving in with a man after 10 years on your own? The man is 1000% worth it, but I’m all kinds of anxious/uncertain about the change!

I made a big mistake today. I got gas at Costco. It started out great; I didn’t even have to wait for a pump. But just TRY to get OUT of the Costco parking lot on a Saturday morning. Just TRY. At one point, I was pretty sure I lived there now.

And another thing: this framing sets up the position that if you always need them, it’s a personal failing on your part. They’re puritanical moralising brain chemistry.

Kelly Hunt, 19, disappeared in ANC b/n her village in Western AK and her college. Her remains were recently found. She is 4th young person from Shaktoolik, an Inupiaq village of ≈210, to die in past few years. AK Native women are more likely to be raped or murdered than White women. 1 is too many.

Calling AI use “gambling behavior” is so right in so many ways. I hadn’t quite clocked it such a manner but boy that ain’t wrong.

I don't recall any previous transformative technologies that had to be sold to the public so hard. No one in 1999 was going, "Guys. Cell phone? It's coming, whether we like it or not. I think it's important, FOR WOMEN ESPECIALLY, to learn about cell phone. So that we're not left behind!!"

If Reese Witherspoon were your doctor: You must smoke these cigarettes, because 7 out of 10 women aren't -- and you won't understand them otherwise. (Is this petty? Yes. Do I regret it? No. Gen AI is built on stolen art/words. It's bad for the environment. It is actively making people dumber.)

It’s national pet day. I’m proudly owned by two enormous ginger cats. They’ve kept me sane - and puzzled by their nonsense, for almost 10 years now. I’m grateful for every day.

Women are not obligated to report on abusive men. Every woman has been sexually harassed or worse in the workplace. I do not know one who hasn’t. The problem is the men. Other men need to get WAY better at calling creeps out. Period.

This Palm Sunday, let’s remember... Jesus chose a donkey of peace instead of a horse of war. Jesus disarmed his followers instead of forming an army. Jesus exposed the evil of violence instead of partnering with it. Jesus laid down his own life instead of taking anyone else’s.

You know what? Yes. This is the way. Let the narrative decide.
Ok, here is the OFFICIAL AND ONLY CORRECT GUIDE to starting reading Pratchetts Books. Its a multiple step process, so read all steps carefully otherwise you will be wrong and shunned to eternity.
1. Go outside.
2. Trust the universe for once in your life.
3. Find any of these: Library, Thriftstore, secondhand bookshop, a cupboard with free books, your relatives or friends book shelf or storage boxes...
4. Locate the Pratchett Book.
5. The universe has now deciced with which book you must start with.
6. Compliment the universe for its wisdom.
7. From there on repeat the steps above.
