C is for Cookie

Oh hey babe

Conference Season 🤝 Captain Cook Selfie

I’m going to say this as gently as I can…Skype went to a nice big farm where it can have lots of space to run around

YOU GUYS I HAVE AMAZING NEWS:

Came home and continued working! And I’m close to being done! I feel like I cracked a magical code or something

I rarely wish for a 2nd adult in my home but I’m on an ADHD-infused cleaning binge (and feeling GREAT) but earlier me promised kiddo we’d go to the pool so now I have to pivot and…y’all. The anxiety. 😂

Big, big bullet dodged

Happy Halloween to everyone except the man (?) who just threw my things in a trash bag and left them on my porch because his feelings are hurt I’m hanging out with my bestie for 2 hours tonight.

Cool. Cool cool.

Some hybrid of the two, I think?

WAIT WAIT WAIT

ARE YOU TELLING ME I HAVE BEEN SAYING MALICE AFORETHOUGHT WRONG ALL THESE YEARS? ???

IT’S NOT MALICE OF FORETHOUGHT????

Jesus Christ, this is humiliating

Hey @npr.org and @nytimes.com why aren’t you focusing any energy on the missing and thousands displaced on the western coast of Alaska from Halong?
There are journalists & correspondents covering this story locally, give them a chance to show & tell the world what climate change is doing to Alaska

Cc: one of my favorite Pisces @thenigel.bsky.social

Today’s NYT Connections feels ominous @nytgames.bsky.social

Oh, Canada

On one hand, the British monarchy is trash

On the other, they are the only consistent reference I can use for a boy’s classic haircut

Moving laundry from the washer to the dryer:

“I protect the family”

Because no son of mine is going to grow up believing self care is only for women, or that your crusty gender norms apply to him (or anyone else for that matter)

Rest in Primate

Dammit Brian

Lock in, motherfucker, it’s sweater weather

All these pro-October posts remind me of when @briancgrubb.bsky.social declared October to be a lesser month and it was the only time I considered unfollowing him

Oh that’s a HUGE one to watch now. “Just because you can doesn’t mean you should” speaks volumes in this day and age

Grateful to them and you for standing up to this regime

Elemental is also a great immigrant/acceptance of other cultures story and was overlooked when it came out

Which, I actually think is the better way to do it. If you want to get an anti-fascist message across, hitting kids over the head with it may not be as effective as you might hope.

If I’m honest it was Robin Hood, Little Women (1994), and Newsies that radicalized me.
TSOM was too long to get to the actual point about anti-fascism. I just thought it was about whiskers on kittens & girls in white dresses with blue satin sashes

I’m not sure I’ll make it through another winter
It was a sunny September day and I saw a picture of snow and ohhh the dread

Deepest apologies to whoever had to hear @lazydogbone.bsky.social and me raging against fascism and reviewing bumble profiles tonight.

I’d say we’re usually better behaved but my mother raised me not to lie

(Also: what a fuckin stud)

Everything in the news and at work and in my life feels like I’m wearing a sweater that’s too hot and too itchy but I can’t take it off.

SHALL WE CHEERS IT THIS WEEK??????

Still working on that one of a kind, never before been attempted broadway musical about Alexander Hamilton?
