Such a fun time when I get up to pee at 5am and my body doesn’t want to go back to sleep. I need rest, I’m still hacking up nasty coughs, but an hour of quiet reading changed nothing. Guess I’ll get up and have toast and do some cosmic exploration in XIV

I'm really not doing well. If people could sub to my OF to help take care of me that would be really appreciated.

Had another bizarrechitecture house dream in which I had several roommates and rarely used the stairs to go from one storey to the next. It was so cluttered with imagery that I have no idea how to begin to interpret it

💔💔💔

I play XIV in the worst way: I’ve waited a year and a half since the level cap got raised to focus on leveling my crafts to 100. I can finally spell Wachumeqimeqi

This cold has crooked up my beard too

Whoo! Happy birthday! 🥳💜 making 50 look great 😘

I will date myself by revealing that to do this, I’d have to remember my Livejournal username

I skipped my nap yesterday, and I am convinced this contributed to a bad night’s sleep and worse chest congestion today. This time, I won’t make the same mistake 😴

Day four of this cold 🤧 I’m about to go for a nap in this hoodie

The best thing about not being on apps for months is I haven’t had to describe myself based on sexual positions. I’m an entire person again, yay

I finished reading Careless People. It felt good to buy and read a book that facebook essentially Streisand Effected into higher sales. It reinforced my plan to close my fb and ig accounts, which I haven’t really been using lately anyway and those apps have never been on my current phone.

You know how some people hope nothing happens to them before a certain film or game comes out so that they can be around to enjoy it? I feel that way but about The Nuremberg Trials 2.0.

At least today has warmed to a relatively balmy feels like -15°C

Thousands of homes in the neighbourhood with no power since yesterday morning on the coldest days of the season so far 🥶

Agnes Tachyon (Uma Musume), Tighnari (Genshin Impact), Hiei (Yu Yu Hakusho), Succubus intern (Helluva Boss), Sylveon (Pokemon, Buki (Sudeki)

Six fanarts are done! Thanks for the suggestions, these were really fun!

I started to get sick yesterday, and went down for a fully clothed (including hoodie) nap. Two hours. Glorious. I feel better today, but still plan to keep it down to slow movement and lots of water. (My impatient and anxious brain wants me to do the kettlebell, which is not prudent at this point.)

Ever since I read that sitting makes it easier to empty the bladder more fully, it has been the only way for me

Finally got a replacement library card today. Now to figure out how to hook up my Kobo so I can borrow e-books

When I worked at a bank, I once had a discussion with a coworker as to whether our CEO was useful or deserved earning so many times what we earned. I maintained a solid no on both counts, and that he could never do my job (answer 80ish calls a day at a call centre)

Thumbnail and description for the podcast Desperate Acts of Capitalism’s 57th episode: Dating Apps. Description text reads: First they were weird. Then they were fun. Now, they are tired, played out, and full of catfish. In this episode of Desperate Acts of Capitalism we wade into the sordid world of modern dating apps, exploring how one of the most defining elements of modern dating culture got so bad.

I never know what other people mean when they say “dating” and that made this a great conversation to listen to. I also hate dating apps despite meeting my darling @bonusholebilly.bsky.social on grindr (we took it off the app almost immediately and kept in touch over signal)

Oof, I’m sorry 😞 I can definitely see how working there would make reading the book difficult to impossible

A hardcover book called Meditation for the Real World by Ann Swanson. The cover art features several people on a bus, one of whom is a woman seated with hands on her legs, eyes closed, and a serene expression on her face

I finished Ann Swanson’s Meditation for the Real World this morning. She goes over the brain and physiology science of meditation and offers dozens of practical exercises that can help with building a personal and regular meditation practice. I will be keeping this one close at hand for future use

I’ve started reading Careless People and it’s gonna make me so mad lol

Looking cute and cozy in that sweater! 💜

This brought to you by the fact that my civics teacher in high school played movies more often than discussing the actual subject matter of the class. I probably learned more from Schoolhouse Rock than my public education
