Me in January: I like switchy bi boys because even if I'm almost entirely a sub I side eye any cishet man who is strictly dominant because too many of them use it as an excuse to hit women and get away with it

Me now: I like switchy bi boys because they beg so pretty 😈

Oh hello I haven't used this app in a while but I feel like coming back so here I am again!

The world is still on fire and everything is still awful but at least I managed to be productive today? The driveway has been cleared, my laundry is all folded and away, the dishes are done, I cooked and ate a real dinner, and I have taken a shower.

Now to hope I didn't use all of tomorrow's spoons

I am alive and awake (but not alert or enthusiastic)

I have coffee

I made it into the office on time

I remembered to bring everything I need for dance class tonight

I have hit a point at work where I am waiting for someone to get back to me before I can proceed

I got this

Oh hey it's 2025 (and has been for 2 weeks, shhhhhh)

We got one social media platform getting banned and another announcing new (bad) moderation standards.

Maybe I'll spend more time here now instead?

My primary bank:

8/10

Got to chat with a coworker I don't see frequently anymore, just had to bring in the marriage license and sign a form.

Lost points for the computer system being a bit sluggish.

"You know, instead of scrolling for BookTok content, I could just go read a book."

Today was garbage. Maybe tomorrow will be better.

Maybe my anxiety and depression will stop being a massive sack of shit.

Who am I kidding, better take CBD and listen to spicy audio and have ~self care~ time and hope my brain makes the good chemicals for me.

I'll be ok. Just gotta bitch first.

Local public library

10/10

Literally walked in the door, walked up to the desk, and told the nice librarian I was changing my name. She didn't even ask to see my marriage certificate, just took my word for it.

Librarians are the best.

my scheduled appointment.

My new card will be arriving in about 5-7 business days.

The two points are for having at least some amount of online process as well as how quick it was once I actually got called up. (2/2)

Social Security

2/10

There was an online form I could fill out and submit. And then, I could either mail in originals of my marriage certificate and passport, or book an appointment.

The earliest appointment was over a month out.

I still had to sit in the waiting room for over 30 mins past (1/2)

Wish me luck for tomorrow, I get to explain to my very religious in-laws why they aren't gonna get any grandkids that share their last name for at least the next 4 years 🙃🙃🙃

My husband and *my* family have my back, of course. But still.

Why did I bother coming into the office today?

Like half the people aren't here, my only meeting is a Zoom call, and I'm in the end-of-the-month lull.

Lemme twiddle my thumbs from home at least?

always calling me out like this 😸

Hello all, I am back from my lovely vacation and trying to settle back into my usual routine. But unfortunately it is time for Nutcracker performances and Holiday nonsense. So free time will be very scarce for a bit.

Send energy and good vibes?

FYI I am likely to be fairly unresponsive online for the next week or so - I'm alive and well, just on vacation and with very limited Internet access

She do that a lot

Not me making sure my entire Kindle library is downloaded before possibly losing Internet access for a week because I'm in the middle of the ocean.

And my liked songs on Spotify, too.

I am PREPARED.

I'm not complaining by any means! I just didn't quite expect the timing of it all.

And no, I am ABSOLUTELY NOT looking for more serious partners at this time. If I wasn't polysaturated before, I definitely am now.

Me 2 months ago: Sure I'm very polyam and I have crushes on some friends but I'm comfortably polysaturated at two romantic relationships and that's great. Besides, I'm just looking for casual sapphic connections rn.

Me, like, a month ago: suddenly three new partners, all of whom are masc leaning.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

That's it, that's the post

Once I get this cat off my lap it’s over for you bitches

How do you keep making lists where I am most of the things? I'm 5/6 on this one.

I am certain they will be found

This spreadsheet is going to be the death of me.

I mean, I'll figure it out, I'll make it work, but still.

It's old and built weird and I break everything every time I change anything.

But then I fix it again. It's just a hassle.

That's it that's the post. Excel is a mess sometimes.

So tbh I never really used the social media platform that Elon Musk is murdering, so I don't really know how to use this one either 😅

I'll figure something out eventually but for now I may as well stream-of-consciousness here as well as Facebook, right?

Everyone loves cat photos, right?
