So, the money I was hoping to spend on repairing my oven before Christmas has been spent on unexpected vet bills for my baby girl who passed away this morning.

With my fatigue, I absolutely sometimes miss things like a AI disclosure all the way at the bottom of a game description, or something toxic someone in our community has done.
So just a reminder to please let me know if you see me playing a game or interacting with a person like this!

Flaunt that shit!
Sick of scrolling games just to see AI disclosures at the bottom. When I see one, it's an automatic NOPE from me.
Celebrating that you are against AI is a great way to get me to look at, and cover your game!

I want my energy back. There are so so many things I miss doing that really only need a little bit of energy. Like streaming, it’s really just setting it up.
I, of course, also miss things that take a lot more energy.

Your yearly reminder that “holiday” celebrations that only include Christian traditions are not, in fact, inclusive even if you don’t use the word Christmas, so tbh I’d rather you just say it’s Christmas.
Until a few years ago, ugly holiday sweaters didn’t exist. They’re ugly Christmas sweaters, with some generic Jewish iconography to be “inclusive.” But the truth is, when I have to buy one to wear to a work party, I feel like I’m in another culture’s drag.

Dear stores: please don’t place mid aisle displays or store carts so that a wheelchair or one of your scooter shopping carts can’t fit. It’s extremely frustrating and makes it so much more difficult to actually use mobility devices for accessibility…

Masking in public, especially when you're indoors or around a lot of people outdoors (such as at a concert/protest or other crowded event), is a really easy way to 1) show solidarity with disabled and chronically ill people and 2) not get anyone sick.

There’s something both heartbreaking and lovely about a message I got from my dad today. He emailed me a link to a linguistics job, with the message “As much as I wish you were healthy enough to apply for this - I know it is not the case”and to pass it on if I knew anyone interested.
