I can't do social media right now without some PTSD triggers. So that's been fun.

I got what most people would consider awful news at the doctor, but it helped lessen the anxiety I had about symptoms. I can tune out chronic discomfort as long as I understand exactly what it is and is therefore not the threat of the unknown.

Did y'all know that Trump brought back the Presidential Fitness Test that Obama retired in 2012? I didn't until my sixth grader had a medical crisis after being asked to run a mile with zero training, warning, or water. You first, 45.

The past two years have been so full of love and growth with @kidcryptid.bsky.social. Seeing myself through his kind eyes is a gift. I'm so happy for such a calm, gentle giant in my life. I am better for it ❤️ Happy two year anniversary, my love!

Happy 2 year aniversery to the amazing @sweetbasil.bsky.social. They have been a gorgeous shining beacon of optimism and compassion in my life and I am better for it. They have made me feel more loved and accepted into their life than I ever thought possible. Here is to many more journeys together!!

Fresh figs 🌱 from the garden roasted with goat cheese from the farmers market and topped with walnuts and honey - delicious! This first harvest year is small, but I'm excited for many more years of figs.

Sometimes I think I have terrible auditory processing because I can't set human beings to 2x speed. Text me or I'll get distracted.

When a woman is into me it hits like when I was 14 and a guy was into me. Mainly because I never fully believe a woman is actually interested in me and not just deeply confused.

Pumpkin donut, pumpkin coffee, EPL. Good morning. You'll never walk alone ❤️❤️❤️

Nothing let's me know I'm going to be fucking well into old age like fucking with a knee injury. Can't stop my horny. Just slow it down with ice packs and pillows. 😂😂

Riftbound did scratch an itch in terms of the pacing. I like when things can be won within a few well strategized rounds. When a game isn't going in your favor, you don't want it to last too long. Good to get in multiple rounds. I miss mtg modern circa 2015.

Played my first game of Riftbound. It was fun! HOWEVER, I have some gripes about the editorial on the play guide included. Activated teacher mode.

I'm having too rough a time to fully grieve Dolly right now. But soon I will watch Steel Magnolias and cry like a baby.

After killing our lawn four years ago to grow a pollinator garden🌱, we have our first monarch caterpillar! In previous years, we saw monarchs, but never saw any cats. I'm so excited!

Sometimes I need to stop and look back at how far I've come. Sometimes literally. The life of a squirter.

Came out to my parents as poly and my dad's response "If you say they're family, they're family" Good talk. Feeling seen and whole.

The conspiracy theories around the Lindsay Clancy case are wild because people are more willing to believe she's being framed than talk about how labor laws and the healthcare system fail parents in America.

The polycule float trip hit up The Hotdog Man Also I apparently have great frat boy vibes @strictlyworse.bsky.social @kidcryptid.bsky.social

Not a black cat girlfriend. I am an orange cat partner. Feed me at the regularly scheduled time each day and I'll cuddle you forever.

Yesterday I asked the clerk at Home Depot why an item that's $13 online was $20 in store. He price adjusted it for me, but apparently this is not abnormal, and sometimes things are cheaper in store than online. Fuck. I don't need any more data to factor into my shopping. 😭

Us: when the kids are in middle school, we'll be able to save the money we'd been spending on childcare! Braces: hold my beer

Taking a poll... Ketchup on eggs (or SPK for NJ folks) A. FEED ME SEYMOUR B. Not for six year olds, if done artfully C. Is hot sauce for babies D. What is wrong with all of you?

If I don't Google my symptoms and possible diagnosis before a doctor's appointment, how on earth is the doctor going to know what's wrong with me? It's clearly a test I need to study for.

Sweet Basil @sweetbasil.bsky.social · 06/08/2026

I still had a few challenges to complete! A few variants to catch! Time to get lost in it again. Lol

There's not much sweeter than our eleven year old getting plushies out of the claw machine for our eight year old.
