I adore my table neighbor and her bags. I’m excited I get to sit near them again and look at all the pretties

Display of bags in many shapes and designs, including Star Trek messenger bags. There is a sign that says “ask me about pockets” and a banner over it that says “Sarah Wachter Designs; handmade in Somerville”

The other day I discovered a grilled cheese place a couple towns over with amazing dipping cup size tomato soup. So good

I somehow got onto cruise (as in the ships) Tok, and learned about Viking cruises.

They don't have casinos, they have libraries and reading nooks. And lecturers. And every excursion is to some place of historical or natural significance and you are taught things.

This. Sounds. AMAZING.

Today I threatened the American way of life by asking someone to teach me to say “pay what you can” in Spanish

I think I just got drive-by gifted? I was talking to a customer and someone in a Pokemon hat came up so I thought there were also a customer but they just placed this in my table, mumbled something I didn’t catch, and left

you have a right to be angry

Drawing of Little My, a small girl in a red dress, sliding down a hill. She is drawn by Tove Jansson from the Moomin series. The text reads: "WHEN you're angry, then you're angry," thought Little My, peeling her potato with her teeth. "Sometimes you have to be angry. Every little creature has the right to get angry."

Today I threatened the American way of life by having another stress dream I was diving and got in an accident. I haven’t even attempted driving in over an decade

Today I threatened the American way of life by accepting that I could only manage some of my errands and that’s still an accomplishment

You obviously want to support trans people, especially transgender people in sport during this period when soon, we will again no longer be allowed on the field. I'm asking that you to please donate. Pls share!

I thought this was the beginning of beard season? (For those who choose to grow beards sometimes)

Pu(mpkin)zie @punzie.bsky.social · 5d

Today I threatened the American way of life by doing body grooming maintenance: pluck my beard hairs, clip my nails, trim my undercut, shave some areas

I expected it to be slow today because of the storm but it was busy most of the day. I did better today than yesterday! Thankful to everyone who came out ☺️

Also, use this feature. Alt text is good for many reasons and I will not share pics w/o it

My "Require alt text before posting" setting got randomly cleared, at some point. If you use this setting, you may want to make sure it's still turned on.
