    Still here. I haven’t heard from plastics yet, but they’ve cleared me to walk the hall with assistance. I’ve completed three full laps – yay. I know it doesn’t seem like much, but it’s crazy how much the little things matter. In hospitals, I’ve learned that it’s best to be thankful and not push to… Read more

    Well. I told Brats about my upcoming mutilation a couple of days ago. A spy was inserted. Someone not on the roster but in the class email was inserted. I guess that’ll be my replacement. I know it’s a couple weeks out still… well, 12 days really as of today… and wanted to give notice.… Read more

    For a while there, I felt like I was starting to blog fairly regularly. It was at least a couple of times a week. I was thinking ahead and even have three or so posts pending from ideas that I wanted to feel out before going all in. I think I was enjoying it but… Read more

  • Shoplifting on a grand scale.

    This is a new thought in a territory I don’t know much about, so I’m going to try to piece it together. Bear with me. Shoplifting has increased. We know this. It’s driven by accidental negligence. A mom may be distracted by a child, and something doesn’t scan. Inflation and the job market mean tight… Read more

    I don’t think my deodorant works well. About a week ago or so, I finished with a stick of Hey Human – the fancy one that comes in a cardboard tube. Surprisingly, that one wasn’t bad or expensive. I think it goes for some $8 at Target but was $3 at Ollie’s. It didn’t have… Read more

    Just kind of checking in. I still have the stuff oozing out of me. Still infected. Still achy. Yesterday was a bit tough. I dropped the phone while checking out mom’s baby watermelon. The screen tried to make friends with the gravel driveway. It didn’t work. The screen shattered. Friendship was not achieved. So –… Read more

  • I don’t pretend to understand the stock market, the Federal Reserve, or anything like that. From exposure to political theory, discussions, and self-education, I’d think I’d be at about a third-grade level of understanding. But when there is almost zero finance literacy being taught, I’m a titan among normies. However, I like to pretend –… Read more

  • In my last post, I made a claim that the tradwife trend is a trauma response to the increasingly fake and hollow society that is being carefully constructed by 3D bricks. I want to expand on that a bit and clarify. From the beginning, I’m thinking of ‘trauma’ as an emotional response that violates someone’s… Read more

  • I’m desperately trying to get out of my head today.I had planned on dragging myself outside. The sun. The birds. I have some Dollar Store seeds to plant.– Don’t knock them. They tend to actually grow and are far better than the $2 plus dollars of the branded. And I did for a little while.I… Read more

    It’s been tough lately. I’m sure I’m allowing this to be more than what it should be. I’m just stuck. Stuck bad. It’s getting nice out. The days are warmer. The sun is bright. One of the best things in the world is waking up lazily to birdsong. Hiding under the warm covers while the… Read more
