Menopause is way worse than puberty. Becoming a crone is hell. My moods are cranky, irritated, rage, hopeless, stupid, and chocolate.

Harrison Ford being the grumpiest man alive in every interview while reportedly being the biggest sweetheart of a stoner old man in actual life is just such a treat Not sure any actor has aged more delightfully

The clouds have come back, summer is slowly moving toward fall. I feel more alive in the vague gloom. I look forward to rainy days.

I firmly believe in getting a treat after doing something hard. I don't like going to the doctor, even the ones that listen to me. Today's visit went better than expected, but the blood draw sucked. I treated myself to a donut for doing the thing and surviving (and not biting anyone).

I realize that not all menopausal people get the intrusive thoughts/garbage brain, but jeez, this is bullshit. I was told my whole life that this part would be better. My 19 year old self would be so pissed. I survived my teen years on spite and music, my 40's are far more challenging.

I've always been nervous about going to the doctor, but the pandemic wrecked me going to the vet. Having one cat with dental issues and an elderly cat meant sitting in the vet parking lot for hours during 2020 and 2021. I know it isn't happening now, but lizard brain isn't buying it.

On the edge of menopause and this sucks. Started tracking my symptoms, got a new doctor, and gave her the run down. Got on E patches and Progesterone pills. I sleep now, but I have 21 days on P and 8 days off, and the 8 days suck ass. The patches run out about 36+ hours before change.

There's a spider in the guest bathroom that has 6.5 legs. This means they met Rose. I'm glad they got away without a mortal wound, but I really feel bad about the half leg.

I'm so happy that my semi-former vet recommended another vet to me for urgent care. The new vet has more staff, which means they aren't booked out for weeks. They are in a more rural area and it takes a bit longer to get there, but for same day/week appointments, I'll make the trip.

The Supreme Court did not strike down conversion therapy bans today. Not nationwide. Not in Colorado. Not anywhere. Here's what actually happened in Chiles v. Salazar—and why the coverage you're seeing serves the conservative legal movement more than it serves you.

I really feel for my fellow perimenopausal cohort, but I have to also understand the kiddos and others that are going through puberty right now. We're all watching the world catch fire, and our hormones are a mess. We all know things are bad, but right now I'm not sure my doom has a depth.

I grew up fairly close to Boston, and my accent still lingers on words I learned/used before I got to my 20's. Then I moved an equal distance from Philly, which further colors my accent. In the northeast, "Aunt" is pronounced using the u, so it comes out "Ahnt" rather than "Ant".

I have a completely unreliable superpower called hot flashes. I go into a store, and half way through shopping I feel like I'm in a sauna. I go to my car and open the windows in 40 degree weather like it is totally normal. Seasonal defective and this bullshit, how am I supposed to hold onto sanity?

Nobody told me exactly how easy it is to pull muscles when you are over 45. I mean, yeah, I'd heard people talk about throwing out their back by sneezing. I didn't sneeze, I just twisted the wrong way while sitting down. Now my left hip hates me. Getting up from sitting is a new form of torture.

I was such an MTV kid that when I listen to old songs, quite often I hallucinate/play back the videos as I listen to the music. I didn't realize this until I listened to a particular song and became aware of the images playing in my head. I'm fascinated by my brain, it holds on to some weird stuff.

As a child that grew up when 80's music was happening, it is surreal to listen to some of those songs and realize that we've been living this bullshit right along. It is undeniably right in our faces now, but it was always there, if you listen to the lyrics. Music is history, unvarnished.

This is my life now, an hour+ yesterday trying to get a prescription. Today a half hour trying to get someone at the pharmacy. This is normal, this is our reality. We got spoiled for a time there when we could get almost anything within a day's time.

Found out this morning that it is possible for pets to get Covid, after my boy cat has been snuggling with me for the past 24 hours like it was his job. I really hope the kitties don't get it. This sucks and I'm kind of mad at the world right now.

Readying for parental visit. Gonna cook, sightsee, and do home maintenance. Unfortunately, can't take them to the cat cafe this visit, because that's how we end up with a new cat and I'm not sure I'm ready for more chaos.

An illustration of the trolley problem.
Track 1 hurts Palestinian, transgender, and gay people.
Track 2 hurts Palestinian, transgender, and gay people, as well as women and democracy.

But the trolley is depicted as being blown up by a communist with an RPG to protect them all.

it's kitties
A set of four displacer beasts, large six-legged felines with long spike-padded tentacles emerging at the shoulder. The first one is a glossy black, bursting open to reveal energetic purple. The second is grey and white, with red-to-yellow rosettes. The third is a mix of african wild dog patterning with leaves and sundew tendrils on its body. The fourth is deep blue with a cyan aurora pattern.

Had a nice little birthday date with my wifey, @pmfrlyn.bsky.social, today. We went out for lunch, checked out a couple of shops, and walked by the water for a bit. We saw two river otters playing in the water. I think I'm old enough to enjoy simple birthdays.

We may not have fireflies out here in the PNW, but we make up for it with enormous dragonflies in a variety of colors. I've been so happy to see them zooming around.

Also foraged food rocks. Our local farmer's market group gets some awesome stuff. So far I've had mushrooms, ferns, and today sea beans. I look forward to new things as the year goes by.
