Please keep your fingers crossed for me. This is Meela, she’s a shelter cat with a VERY similar backstory to Leah. Apparently she’s also the shelter sweetheart!

I’m meeting her next week once I’m well and I hope it works out. LOOK AT HER, she looks like she needs some good love.

Because I’ve lost smell, I’m terrified that means I’ll have other neurological symptoms with Covid. Hopefully not!

But I think the one I’m most concerned about is losing empathy, which hasn’t been proven but I can see a pattern of: people get Covid, people turn fascist. Please tell me I’m wrong!

Things I am thankful for: time to rest, online classes and support groups, understanding profs, work from home, having all the food and supplements I need

Things I am not thankful for: having Covid but no cat to join me in sleeping 12-16h a day 😿

Dammit I caught Covid 😢

Apart from feeling tired, the thing that made me test was not being able to smell my coffee.

Thankfully this week is all optional classes and online work, so I can stay home and rest.

It’s my first time! Tips?

Massive shoutout out to whoever handles the Royal Canadian Air Force’s social media account. They responded to every single comment on their already very solid Trans Day of Remembrance post and they responded like this…

What an honour it is to be someone that people aren’t afraid to fail in front of ♥️

I guess all I’m really trying to do here is to live a life so that Yo Yo Ma might take notice 🫶🏼

It’s always so much fun explaining to people who I look up to and why!

normalise serving chocolate milk at parties
I do not drink because I have almost no tolerance for it anymore (one margarita is too much).

If you are hosting a party, I recommend also stocking:
-fancy ginger beer
-coconut water
-premium juices like lychee and guava
-apple cider with cinnamon
-Italian sodas
-sparkling water

Lots of options!

I learnt how to forgive my dad before I learnt the extent of his neglect. I was in my 20s before I realized most parents have an interest in their kids and don’t just see them as burdens.

I don’t think I can ever forgive Christianity for that.

What if the true meaning of Christmas is supporting small businesses so the oligarchs have a very shitty season?

I feel so much better today. Now I’m unsure if I was sick or if my body was just like, “No ma’am you need to REST AND HYDRATE FOR 24 HOURS”.

Still going to take it easy today though!

I have a bad habit of scrolling the cat adoption sites, even after I said I wouldn’t specifically look for a cat at this time.

Unfortunately I feel like no one is going to try to talk me out of this bad habit (I’ve asked) 😅

WHY NO SECONDS. VERY HUNGRY

Yesterday in class, I heard, “These people go into the ER EXPECTING to be mistreated. They’re surprised when they get good care.” And the class was visibly surprised.

I didn’t realize there was another way to experience the ER.

I got sick - not good but I’m kind of excited because I get to sleep the whole day (and tomorrow) away!

This of course would be better with a cat, but we make do with what we have!

An immigrant doesn’t stand between you and a good job.

I’m finally getting the videos back I filmed in May/June. This was weeks after Leah died, and my eyes are so dead.

Seriously? Ostrich convoy?

I hope it's not too long before these people can sit down and have a real deep think about how ridiculous this is.

I think for Christmas, I want people to share their current (or all time!) favourite poems with me. I want to keep a journal of them!

There was a grizzly bear attack on a group of schoolchildren, and while that is horrific and I feel for the families, I’m glad it’s that and not guns.

But also, the bear is still at large.

Fugitive bear.

It's Trans Day of Remembrance. I don't know a single trans person who hasn't lost another trans person in their circle. Please hold them in your hearts today, even if their names are new to you.

And remember all of us who are out here, doing the best we can.

I forgot to renew a library book and my library account said:

STATUS = DELINQUENT

DELINQUENT.

Leah would be so proud of me 😸
