"How do you know what a bird wants?" The rainbow death chicken just chirped and trilled incessantly until a child came to change her water because she wanted to take a bath. They'll let you know.

Always fun when the guilt of taking a mental health break makes you feel a type of way as well.

Karl went from sleeping on my chest to fighting with Void, so I guess it's safe to say he feels at home. #catsofbluesky

Have to write a paper that argues for sanctuary cities not giving ICE information, but I'm so sniffly and cranky that my outline so far only consists of "FUCK ICE." and "Sanctuary cities are covered under the 10th Amendment and the US Constitution also covers non-citizens. This is fucking BS."

We created gyms because modern day work no
longer required physical activity. Without exercise,
our muscles atrophy.
I predict we'll need gyms for our brains too, once Al
starts doing our knowledge work.

Spouse put Blink 182's I Miss You on while I made dinner. I come back to them sitting with Donut in their lap, so now I'm unsure for whom the serenade was intended. Guess y'all can live like Jack and Sally if you want. I'll be over here feeding cheesy eggs to Karl and Void.

Thinking of buying Scrivener for my iPad (already have it on my PC) because my inner dragon keeps telling me to acquire the Freewrite Traveler, but I just won't use it for my type of writing. Has anyone used both formats of Scrivener whomst can tell me if there are differences? #writer #gradschool

The funniest part of this is how no one calls anything he's involved in by the name he chooses anyway. We still call it Twitter... *checks notes* ... almost 4 years later, for fuck's sake.

These 2 blankets were supposed to be done and dusted, so I could maybe manage the other 3 by the end of next month, and I'm only on skein 4/9 of the one. We won't be discussing the other. Guess these will not be presents this year. I really need to readjust my expectations. #knitsky #crochet 🧶

My spouse is the kind of person that can send things to a family chat one minute, knowing exactly what I’m laughing at when I read it hours later, while also asking me if I’ve heard of a ttrpg that I’ve been playing for months. They contain multitudes.

Whoda thunk posting an attractive man in his *checks notes* - underwear and a French maid outfit - would not have the intended effect of making people dislike him.

Oh, JFC. I can't tell you how many times I got told I was overreacting when I said this country was becoming christonormative. That it wasn't in our constitution. That doesn't mean the opportunity isn't there in a country with a living document as it's founding pillars. I'm so tired.

The kids just figured that one doesn't have the same video game time limits they do, and they're complaining. Parenting books never teach you nuanced parenting that sometimes comes across as unbalanced or unfair. That kid can self-regulate, which means I don't have to do it for them.

Kid wanted to try to make marzipan, so they made me some as a "Yay, finals are over!" treat. Well, now we have so much fucking marzipan. We're just eating it out of the freezer, so it doesn't go bad. Opposite of a problem, really, but none of us can stop grabbing one as we walk by.

So glad the spouse is home today. Not least of all the moment I was asked to help with slopes during morning school. 🎶 Go ask your father. 🎶 #homeschool

Speedbump literally walked in the door and has yet to try to walk out. He comes running when he hears cheese sticks, so he clearly knows how to go after what he wants. I'd say it's a large orange boi thing, but Void is the same. (Donut was an indoor cat from the beginning of her life.)

Not the point of the post, I guess, but they brought up the analogy: As a middle-aged person married to another middle-aged person, I have to know why so many people stay with spouses they do not like. It has to be sunk-cost fallacy if you're at the point of complaining in an unrelated article.

"You had a good post on social media..." Bet that's never true, actually. Also, you could just like... consensual have this with a BDSM contractual relationship, and have safe words and be completely fun about it. But, nah. You want to be the "women shouldn't talk to each other unsupervised" type.

I can't imagine bringing an iced coffee into an interview, but the silliest part of this is who tf wears panty hose and lights up inside anymore that this is a point of reference? Also, I didn't realize cigarettes were gendered.

If my children learn nothing else, I hope they take examples of being with someone who will pause everything because you texted them "help" because there was a wasp trying to take a bath with you. 😬
