I have a lot of thoughts about using a song very specifically about embracing yourself exactly as you are despite society's disapproval for selling weight loss medication

Forgot to buy more of the high protein granola for my signature apple salad, but it's okay because I just crumbled an oaty Hobnob over it instead

If we all gave the equivalent of a McDonald's Diet Coke, we could get that pup! (And if you can afford an airport soda, even better)

If I got enough for the pup, I would figure out the service training over time

The influencer's instagram is on private now and the only thing on her tiktok is an "opportunity to grow and do better" apology lol

An influencer asked to collab with a Scottsdale, AZ bakery and was told no thanks. Influencer then shows up, leaves a rude and condescending review, so the owner drops this video with receipts about how the include tried to “blackmail”. Wild.

I will forever dedicate my time and energy to continue to make it right to the people who value my teams hard work and have respected us and supported us since day one. #review #influencer #bakery

I don't usually share my own books like this but it feels relevant to share TAINTED EVIDENCE--set in Portland, OR--and is about white supremacists trying to use archaeology to steal Indigenous land...and features several white supremacist rallies & counterprotests.

Alt: a person holding a brown paper bag that says "dead dove do not eat" looks inside and then says "I don't know what I expected."

Whilst on airplane mode, our connecting flight was delayed three times. Assuming it actually gets in at the time it's currently scheduled for, I will have been awake for nearly 24 hours by the time we get home
