Asked my wife to take my phone away from me earlier so I wouldn’t text the person who gave birth to me “I hope you die penniless & in prison” in case you were wondering how it’s going. Kthxbai.

Calling it now. 2025 MLB season will give us (really just me) the 1984 World Series I wanted with my beloved @Cubs & adopted new hometown @tigers
#GoCubsGo

In the #ECF if the road team wins out that sets up an epic game 7 between #Pacers and #Knicks #NBAPlayoffs2025 #NBAPlayoffs

Are we gonna have a #Knicks #Pacers Eastern Conference Finals?! What year is it?! #NBAPlayoffs

Damn, the Dodgers going for all the heart strings tonight with Kirk Gibson throw the first pitch to Freddy Freeman.

New artwork from the kiddo. Robot Cat in flowers.
New tattoo?

I have lost approx 110lbs since Dec ‘23 and am now the weight I was in 1991. Lots of therapy & healing. Bought Levi’s off the rack today and they fit perfect.
It was a significant and emotional experience for me. First time in 30 yrs I didn’t have to go to big & tall store.

Most ppl after gummies & a 🥃, “I want Taco Bell!” My silly self: “pretty sure I have the stuff for 🥑 toast. Where’s the sharp knife?”

Stay tuned for part 2 where I decide a microwave apple crisp is a good idea!

Had an interesting & productive call with the EEOC about my experience at @webmd.com and my former manager. Let’s see what happens next.

The level your music trivia level needs to be at when your wife is a 27 yr music journo & your MiL is a former radio exec in Chi & Det is unattainable 😱

It looks like i got a ton of new followers in the last week.
Thank you and I will be spending more time here and will follow back soon.
Thanks for your patience!

@agirlhasnopres.bsky.social hello!

Solid day for the @Spotify interns…

Joni built me a Build A Bear for 🎄 & when I press his paw Joni’s sweet little voice says “I love you, papa”.
Immediate waterworks.
Heart completely melted.
I woke up 🎄 morning owning zero teddy bears & now own the most priceless Build A Bear ever builded. ❤️🥹

Chatting with my better half tonight after taking edibles and managed to work a reference to Aspergum into the conversation AND in context. Please clap. #genx en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aspergum

Recognizing & healing from this & some childhood & other trauma is why I have lost 100lb in ‘24 w/o crazy diets or exercise.
I haven’t been this weight since 1992. So crazy but I am feeling better than I have in years.
Happy birthday to me (tomorrow)!

Now that I am knocking on the door of 49, I realized ago that I never believed. the religion/god/jesus stuff. I realized it was the only unquestioned way to be away from my family. I went to bible college bc they didn’t want me going to a “secular” college and I had to get out of there.

Sounds like the password to get into a speakeasy. I like it.

What a relief to see I’m not the only one like this 😎

I’ve had the basic idea for a story and plot for a few months and have been letting it percolate in my brain. Finally think I know how it ends and have it narrowed down to two choices for POV and how I want to write it. Writing it is the hard part now. #authors

Hi Denise! Nice to meet you fellow #writingcommunity expat from The Other Place 😊

📚IMPORTANT UPDATE📚

Hi everyone! We have changed the way we are handling the author feed!

There are far too many people for us to manually add each and every one, now.

You can just use #author or #authors in your posts and it will show in the feed.

Not fireworks, made the mistake of sugar too late and she’s all thrown off by the sugar crash.

Nothing exciting for me. Kiddo is having a restless night and has been waking up every hour or so 😕.

Thank you! I really appreciate it!

So here I am. Bluing into the void. Looking for the writing community. Are hashtags the same here as the Dark Place? #writingcommunity
