Absolutely terrible. May her memory be a blessing.

my half-sister, who doesn't bother to contact me unless "socially obligated to" (lol), says it would have been nice to see me (would it have? we have nothing in common and you're all tr@nsphobic asf). she ended this convo with "keep in touch." nah i think i'm good. LMFAO
text chat between my half-sister. the conversation reads as follows. Me: Sorry for the delay, been shredding cheese to make mac and cheese recipe to bring to a Thanksgiving I'm going to later today. Half-Sister: Oh nice! Me: you going to Aunt [redacted]? I heard she's doing Thanksgiving. I was invited to a friends since I didn't have plans so I'm going there. Hence the Mac and cheese. Half-Sister: Yeah.  Just gonna go there.  Would you have gone?  It would have been nice to see you. Me: I wasn't invited. Half sister: Oh im sure [redacted] thought you wouldnt have come.  Would you have?  Didn't [cousin] invite you? Me: No no one invited me. I only found out because [another relative] mentioned it when I was talking to her on my way to Salem last weekend

Oh btw if we thought ONE sinkhole this week was annoying (3rd overall with 180 voids found underneath i80), well… i287 NB at the 80 interchange wanted to get involved Sigh
Map of the location where a sinkhole on interstate 287 northbound mile marker 42.6 at the interstate 80 interchange in Parsippany-Troy Hills NJ was located on 3/21/25, two days after a third sinkhole on interstate 80 appeared near Wharton NJ. This is the second sinkhole to open up on a major roadway in New Jersey in one week, and the fourth overall in as many months. When the second sinkhole opened up on interstate 80 westbound in February, crews initially suspected there were 90 voids underneath the heavily traveled highway, only to correct that number to 180.

A photo of New Jersey Devils captain Nico Hischier stylized as a Valentine card on a red background with a lighter red heart behind him. Text on the image reads, My love for ou cannot be cap-ped, a play on him being captain. Under his right arm there is a heart with the word "to" and a colon in it, and under his left arm, the word "from" and a colon.

big fan of LGBTQIA+ rights. big fan of bow ties. extremely big fan of supporting small businesses like xoelle.com — Laura is an absolute gem. if you want or need bow ties (she’s got Beetlejuice themed ones too!) or chain stitch patches, or a custom order (like for weddings), I highly recommend her
A photo of a package Mo received from the tie shop, xoelle (xoelle.com). From top left to right: full collection of hand crank knit ties with a note from Laura, the shop owner, saying “I had to make sure you had the whole collection,” and the rainbow hearts pencils tie with the lined notebook cover for it. From the bottom left to right: Purple Heart patch with gold scallop border and gold chain stitch lettering of Mo’s name; circular patch that is deep mauve and light pink with the words “Big fan of LGBTQIA+ rights” on it; and the February Bow Tie of the Month from the xoelle shop, complete with pink envelope cover. Laura, the shop owner, also included a two-sided note. The visible side wishes Mo well for their recovery for their upcoming surgery next month.

ignore the fact that my tree is still up, time isn’t real I managed to steady myself enough to leave the house and wandered to b&n #BookHaul
A stack of books Mo acquired.  Left stack contains titles such as Twilight of Democracy by Anne Applebaum and Surviving Autocrscy by Masha Gessen. Right stack contains Parable of the Sower by Octavia E. Butler and The Girls by Emma Cline. This is not a complete list of the books as there are 15 and not enough characters to describe them. See thread when it is up for the complete list

City of Newark, NJ Mayor @rasjbaraka.bsky.social on today’s ICE raid. Image text copy and description is available in the alt text
Image of the Newark Mayor statement on the ICE raid today. Image includes the city of Newark, New Jersey seal on the top right corner. 

text reads as follows:

 January 23, 2025

Mayor Ras J. Baraka’s Statement on ICE Raid on Newark Business Establishment

“Today, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents raided a local establishment in the City of Newark, detaining undocumented residents as well as citizens, without producing a warrant. One of the detainees is a U.S. military veteran who suffered the indignity of having the legitimacy of his military documentation questioned. This egregious act is in plain violation of the Fourth Amendment of the U.S. Constitution, which guarantees ‘the right of the people be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures….’

“Newark will not stand by idly while people are being unlawfully terrorized. I will be holding a press conference in alliance with partners ready and willing to defend and protect civil and human rights. Details to come.”

Got a decent amount of mail today including… THE BOOK OF GOOD TIMES. I am so stoked about this @hankgreen.bsky.social (pardon the awkward photo angle including my messy crochet WIP for my lost loved one’s mom; my desk is a mess)
A photo taken with flash on of Mo’s copy of The Book of Good Times, a tie-in to Hank Green’s novels An Absolutely Remarkable Thing and A Beautifully Foolish Endeavor. This is the hardcover version in brown vegan leather and sits atop their laptop. Mo’s crochet project they are working on - a historical temperature blanket in memory of their deceased loved one Ben - is on their lap and visible at the bottom of the photo.

normally I'd be bummed out that I couldn't get in, but this shows the love that people have for David Lynch and that warms my soul... especially on a day like today.

record store day. I popped into sweet vinyl, a record store cafe while on a walk in a town that’s not mine. got a matcha, some records I’ve been eyeing, as well as a mystery box of 15 vinyl for $10. the mystery box did not disappoint and the “gold rush” matcha was tasty
