My brain is seemingly incapable of finishing non-fiction but I'm giving myself permission to just read as much as I can without pressure to finish. It's been wildly freeing. Im not purposefully DNFing, I'm just accepting my limitations.

I generally don't consider myself a conspiracy theorist but this is so on par with the incompetence of the Trump administration that it seems completely reasonable and I fucking hate that for us.
It’s very strange the guy was from Washington, and drove all the way across the country to Washington DC to do this shooting.

It’s almost like someone ‘activated’ this CIA agent to do the shooting but mixed up Washington with Washington DC thinking he was local.

Aside from one nearly intolerable comment about puberty, Christopher Brown's 'A Natural History of Empty Lots' is really excellent and incredibly readable.

I really need boomer men to stop reducing puberty to sexual awareness of girls. Puberty is so much more than that and its honestly really gross that they insist on it.

Feeling extra disordered this week for a lot of reasons, including activity and diet changes because I'm way off of anything resembling a schedule. Forgot how much that fucks with me.

I don't think I'll be making more brass work this season so if you've been waiting on picking one up now is the time.

And if you see a Native being happy, enjoying family and busting face today, don't be an asshole. Joy is resistance. And if you see a Native struggling, help them out, buy them a meal. If you see Natives sharing their truths and histories, just listen and learn.

For example, you can absolutely enjoy today, feast with your family, watch football, give thanks for each other and the blessings you've received AND acknowledge the complicated history around this holiday, the untruths and myths and how they contribute to the erasure and silencing of Native people.

I don't know who needs to hear this but the world holds a multitude of truths and you can acknowledge them and hold space for them ALL!

Instead of watching Stranger Things, maybe we should start building stronger things, like the rule of law and a commitment to democratic norms

Black Summer is shockingly stressful. Really enjoying it.

Black Summer mught be Jaime King's best role ever. She's almost unrecognizable in a good way.

I feel like I've been buying gifts for the kids all year but then I checked the stash and it felt empty so of course now I'm feeling behind.

Still to-do list for tomorrow: mashed potatoes, creamed kale, roast turkey, ham & acorn squash, bake stuffing & mac & cheese, sweep, vacuum, set table.

Tonight: quick bathroom clean, dishes.

Have hit my "I can't actually move anymore" wall and still haven't done 50% of what I planned on doing but at least most of the food is ready for tomorrow. Also forgot to eat again. Go me.

2 things:

First, been weirdly manic this week.

Second, TIL that the -ty from twenty, thirty, etc, comes from old english -tig which means group of ten!! Brilliant! I love this!

There are days that I do housework and come away not entirely understanding how people manage to keep their homes clean and still hold down a job. I always feel behind.

I told my husband I wouldn't make too much and I usually avoid too many from scratch items but somehow I'm making cranberry sauce and velvet, kale & leek stuffing with sausage, mac & cheese, maple glazed acorn squash with candied pecans, plus store-bought salad & rolls, and turkey & ham roasts.

Today I am... well, largely useless. I've basically not moved from bed.
