I've been thinking about the Trump blowing Bubba thing and not only is it the gayest shit I've ever heard, but the projection of his fears as he went after immigrants and us trans, queer, and intersex people makes so much more sense.

When I did my best to sticker-bomb a public place, they were
Never trust a bald man - or one with very little hair - with only eyebrows for hair on the head/face.

They look like evil villains that LOOK like they're having an identity crisis.

Megamind? Clearly morally gret cuz he has no mustache, but he does have a goatee, and that is acceptable.

It's funny seeing someone with almost no hair on their head wearing a hair net.

Like.. if you only have eyebrows for hair on your whole head and face, put a hair net on your eyebrows too. Really sell me on this if you gonna look like some naked mole rat.

Guess Threads was never meant to be.

In my attempt to give Meta as little info about me as possible, using only one's mobile number screws you apparently. With no other way to identify, you can try various methods listed online and when they don't work...? It wasn't that deep to me.

Maybe here,

Renee Good wasn't just some cishet white woman - she was queer, having been a widow to a man before having a wife.

Remember: Trump went after immigrants and the TQIA+ part of the LGB community, where being cis means you're still safe.

But someone like me? Female, trans(masc)-nonbinary (they/them,

Mark Ruffalo (will always be "The Hulk" from my POV) is the best human being. Proof you can be wealthy and in-touch and empathetic instead of greedy and corrupt.

Threads is trashhhhhh.

I made a post that blew up real fast, and I made a clarifying post, prompted me to verify my phone number and it did NOT send me any fucking code and then I got locked out cuz Meta.

Smdh.

This is one of the hardest financial months I've had in a hot minute.

This blows. Robbing Peter to pay Paul and all that.

A few days into 2026 and I had to finally dissolve what little of a "friendship" I had.

The former friend decided to just ghost me instead of having any sort of honest dialogue. Apparently it was "too awkward" to stay friends with a former friend's (my spouse) spouse (me).

The kicker is I was

I melt over this kitten ALL. THE TIME.

And he and the older male (3 yrs) are actually bonding right before my eyes‽

Okay, NOW it's finally winter. I will now officially allow "merry Christmas" and "happy holidays" alike. 😆

Go figure. Grammy dies, then after no callbacks after a week or 2 of applying, and THEN people wanna call and schedule an interview.

Perhaps the reason I can't get a job at the moment isn't justbdie to the holiday season;

It seems I'm truly on standby. My husband's grandma just got moved to the ICU. I think he said her blood pressure dropped. We don't know the full details, but if she's in ICU, I'm so worried.

My mind is still blown - went to the vet thinking this kitten was 6 weeks old and ready for his forst shot, but he only weighs a bit over 1 pound.

The vet explained cats gain about a pound per month of life, so he's maybe only a whole month old, so younger than we initially thought. He could've

I really do hate job hunting.

My old boss wants me to pop by after lunch. Didn't say why, but if it's fir my old job back at flat rate, no thank you.

I know with those weird assessment quizzes for job applications you're "supposed to" strongly agree/disagree because that's "what employers want" and "are looking for," but the right employer (to me) will know and understand that things just aren't that black and white.

I don't care how long it

I wish to not just find a job, but just fit in to the job I love most so I don't end up dreading it as far as going in to work every shift.

Can the universe answer that "prayer"?

I can't understand how companies put up job postings just for you to follow up and then tell you that they either have a full staff, or you'd just hear back if they're interested. Like...

WHY TF PUT UP A JOB POSTING THEN????

Well, my baby girl is sick with a flu, and my husband's grandma is in the hospital.

As far as grandma goes, no one can convince me she's not dying. Especially after what I've learned the past few days.

So Thanksgiving is us 3 adults (me, hubby, and MIL) and a sick toddler.

It's a bittersweet morning.

I loved this job, the work, some of my coworkers, how a lot of how things operated reminded me of how I once belonged in the Navy even if I barely knew myself as I am today.

Now it's my last day because I've been feeling like with every... situation? I found myself in

I was devastated to learn a lot of the new artists I thought I found were either a hybrid of human and AI or mostly AI generated, especially the latter.

Nothing personally against AI until no one realizes that they didn't know so we all end up feeling duped. I personally like to support humans.

I guess my dumbass 3 yr old black cat would prefer to die of infection than let us help him. I know the new kitten has been hard, but he got injured and no one knows how and he's hostile towards vet techs and he hates carriers.

So I guess he wants to die?

Day 3 of not smoking.

Monday is last day of work at the current job.

I'm... okay? The universe led me to this job, and it showed me I'd have to leave soon. I'm no longer sure of where it'll lead me to next, but as long as I pay attention, I know I'll get there.

Wherever "there" is.

If me being "down" as in "depressed," idk why Big Boss thinks forcing me to being screwed over as a flag tech is somehow supposed to be motivating. Like no, ofc I'm not going to stay.

But he certainly doesn't mind paying someone else hourly unless he uses the flag pay to meet Dab's old way of
