Sometimes, you want to start playing #videogames again for the first time since like 2019 and the ADHD hits so hard you gotta make a full graphic to assist people who might suggest new games to you.

Who has two thumbs and just bought tickets to finally go see @eve6.bsky.social live for the first time, even though this person has been a fan since 1998? (hint: it's me)

“Whitney, don’t drink rocks.” - something I literally had to say to myself last night.

I put this to you, Bluesky: As a kid, all recipes were baked at 350 for an hour. Now everything is put in the oven at 425 for 25-35 minutes. Did we just get less scared about food poisoning, or did we realize we were making everything dry and tasteless?

A boudoir image of the poster, a femme-presenting tall pale brunette on the low-end of plus-size in a near-sheer pink lingerie slip and robe with lace trim standing near a window looking out with her arms wrapped around her.

Been having a lot of Thoughts and Feelings™ about my body between long-Covid, diabetes, chronic migraines, and having my appendix poison me and need emergency surgery to remove, and all of it happening in the last year (-migraines) means tbh I’ve felt kinda betrayed by my body and not sexy at all.

Also apparently the enzyme in bananas reduces the absorption of flavonols from berries, so if you're putting both in a smoothie together you're actually negating a lot of the health benefits of berries, I don't think avocado has that enzyme.

Woke up having aggravated the slipped disc in my lower back IN MY SLEEP. Few things make you feel older or more broken than waking up hurting when you didn't go to bed hurting.

I mean hanging out with almost anyone gives me at least a little anxiety so I get it, but it's still a heroic action I can get behind.

I literally don't think I've ever owned a piece of red clothing that wasn't shoes -even in infancy- so the best I can do is offer a red lip.

This is a take I do not share, but TOTALLY understand. They're a really weird thing to eat. It's essentially eating the ocean's Britta filters which both taste and feel preeeeeeetty similar to post-nasal drip.

That women’s four-way match at Impact in Philly is some of the best wrestling I’ve ever seen live.

somebody on TikTok was trying to call a person androgynous and couldn’t come up with the word so they said this and I’m going to be thinking about it all morning

canned and tubed meats deserve more credit and shitting on them reflexively is probably rooted in a societal acceptance of classism

Posted a picture of my torn-up, painful cuticles with some talk about #adhd and #bfrb on FB and IG and as turns out: it's one of my most educational/informative posts ever?!? Glad I posted it, even if I was so embarrassed at the wretched state of my fingies I almost bailed out while drafting it.

The main reason I am watching more Impact than any other wrestling these days.
