Also my child today: “Mommy can I take apart Liann’s (lego friends character) room?”
Me: (sigh) “That took us a long time to build are you sure you want to do that?”
6yo: “okay… yeah… but mommy? My Legos, my choice. …Right?”
Me: “…yep. Right.”

So I paid $1.87 and got three baguettes. I’m never correcting them. I’m riding this baguette train straight to hell. 🥖🚄🔥

Where are all my fellow chronic pain warriors? Be seen and heard. 💛

I was born with cervical and thoracic Spina Bifida. I will give you the least scientific, but shockingly effective description of said condition: Maybe God just had a little too much to drink and played Jenga with my C&T spine.

I have had 3 neck surgeries, absolutely cannot ride rollercoasters or off-road vehicles. "Rubbernecking" or double-taking can give me totaled car accident level pain. #chronicpain

About 20 years ago, an English literature teacher told my class never to make fun of someone who mispronounces a word that they used correctly (contextually) because that means they read the word and taught themselves the meaning. Making fun of them might make them lose that urge to read and discover new words. I think about that often and I am grateful.

Everyone says cats are supremely sinister, as far as pets go… but the title of most evil 😈 goes to our Avian companions.

The parakeet flock was silent to pleasantly ambient from 6:30-10:00. Then burn-it-all-down berserk from 10-11. Now? They’re gently chittering and chirping with cherubic innocence again.

They shit all over my attempts at mental health then when I went to stare them down, up close and personal, they literally shit on me. In my hands, on my pants.

Little twerps.

Oof. Made my therapist cry too. Is that supposed to happen? Love that level of empathy though. 😳😬

Grab a physical copy for yourself or the women and girls you love before you can’t. The info inside might be invaluable later and inaccessible without surveillance online.

Disclaimer: This is a me problem. Not an anyone else problem. But I get really annoyed when people come to CoSo and ask folks to join them on another platform. Like I tell the Witnesses and the utility solicitors, “I am good with what I’ve got, thank you and goodbye.”

😮‍💨 Just remembered I have telehealth therapy today with the therapist who is covering for my therapist who is on maternity leave. So I can’t even unpack everything I need to because I have to get all the meeting her for the first time crap out of the way. 🤦‍♀️

Kristi Noem—the puppy killer—to head DHS.

I hope we all live long enough to find out the details of the kompromat that had certain individuals who long ago sharply criticized and now lick the boots. Like what could you possibly have done that is worth selling out an entire nation. What could you have done that was so bad that even becoming a turncoat a second time to save democracy couldn’t absolve?
