Boooo no game on in the student commons today. Just some giant fish

A large common room with round tables and chairs on the outside of these tables. They are on a gray carpet. Above that are tiles. On the wall is a massive television, showing a video of marine life. It looks like a reef with fish swimming by, and it is very colorful. At the top of the wall are frosted windows.

Took a quick selfie in the bathroom at work to show off the headband (and my red and white bracelet/green necklace).

A woman wearing all black with short dark hair has a bow with the Mexican flag colors: red, white, and green. She is also wearing a red and white bracelet and a green necklace. She is selfie-ing in the bathroom mirror. So you can see sinks and toilets and the like. Is her cardigan too big? Yeah. But she just ordered a smaller size, so rest easy! There is a sign that reads: “Employees must wash hands.”

My coworker has posited an important question

A white board that says: “QUESTION OF THE WEEK: Does Lightning McQueen need life or car insurance?” Underneath there is space for people to mark of if they believe it is life insurance or car insurance. There are two marks on each side. Underneath there is a drawing of Lightning McQueen, a red sports car.

Guess what?? I finally met Lane (in-person) yesterdayyyyy!!!!!!

Lane and me! Two middle aged people kind of side hugging in front of an artistic representation of the sun. He has glasses and spiky brown hair with a bit of white hairs. He is wearing a blue button-down shirt. I have on red sunglasses with pink flowers and green leaves. I have dark brown hair and a black dress with red sparkly rosettes. My skin looks quite pale thanks to zinc sunscreen. Thanks, zinc sunscreen!

Also, the river that runs through the city is now back in action so I went and said hello to the river earlier today.

In the background, a river runs horizontally across the photo. In the foreground is green grass. Near the river are large green trees. A couple of people sit in the shade underneath the tree. To the right, there is a bench, and two people are hanging out by the bench. There is a pathway next to the tree and bench. On the other side of the river are more green trees and brush. The sky is clear and blue.

New favorite sign just dropped. If you zoom in on the left of the photo you’ll see it says: “Reserved Parking for PRIEST.” I’m imagining a motorcycle. Is anyone else imagining a motorcycle?

An adobe-colored building with a brick walkway in front. There is a large black iron fence connecting two buildings. On one side, it says “Parish office” and there is a red-brown door. On the other side there is a wall with a sign that says “Reserved Parking for Priest.” In the background are large green trees and a blue sky.

The outer shirt, skirt, and necklace were all thrifted. Enjoy my bathroom selfie from last night, XOXO GOSSIP GIRL

It’s me taking a bathroom selfie at my local museum. I am wearing an outer button up shirt that is covered in geometric shapes in various striking colors: red, purple, blue, yellow, white. I have on a black shirt underneath. My skirt is purple. I am wearing an iridescent fanny pack. I also have on a pocket watch necklace with a dragonfly on the front of it. I have my dark hair up, and a black mask on my face. I am holding a small tote bag that says: “Live Vibrant, Shine Bright.”

I know this book needs to be weeded, but I’ll miss its ridiculously out-of-date title. I’ll always love you, Foodservice Marketing for the ‘90s.

A green spine of a book that reads “Foodservice Marketing for the ‘90s” on gold. It is on a desk. There are small sheets of paper with text and writing on them, but they are blurred. There is a copy of the book Critical Hope by Dr. Kari Grain on the desk as well. At the bottom of the screen you’ll catch a glimpse of my cat shoes.

Walked a bit on the treadmill earlier (For the Lord™️, obviously) and I clearly chose the exact right time to do it, because there was a dog sporting event on!

A scene from a dog sporting event. In the foreground, the treadmill. In the center of the picture is a TV screen showing an obstacle course with a green floor and a dog and their caretaker going through the course. The dog is a reddish color. The caretaker has white hair and is wearing black. The caption says “very compact. Almost had a problem with the jump, but—“

Thank you!! I did!

Since it’s Oscar day, I should probably repost this photo I took at the Academy Museum last December, 😏.

It’s me in a mirror of a fake Oscar red carpet. There is a red carpet in the foreground. On the wall is a mirror. You can see a backdrop that says, “Oscars” in gold. There is gold and red wood against this backdrop. I stand in front of the Oscars backdrop in a black t-shirt and gunmetal gray velvet skirt. I have an iridescent fanny pack on (it’s too big and needs to be adjusted). I have in black tights and colorful shoes that are yellow on one show and pink on the other. My dark brown hair is up in a bun and I have a white N95 mask on. In one hand I have my phone. The other I is giving a thumbs-up.

I regret not taking this ridiculous book for collaging/zine-making from the really really free market today.

A book cover that says “lick it!” In big letters on the top of the cover in white text on a magenta background. There is a young woman on the cover holding an ice cream cone with pink, brown, and mint colors. There is text next to the woman that says “creamy, dreamy vegan ice creams your mouth will love.” Next to that is a blue background with white text. It says “Easy, dairy-free recipes.” The author name is Cathe Olson.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!! 🍰 Here is A NATURE. Tonight’s sunset.

A wintery tree (devoid of leaves) in silhouette against a sunset. In the foreground is a hilly area of dirt and vegetation. In the distant background there are mountains. Clouds dot the sky. The sky is yellow and orange. The sun glows behind the silhouetted tree.

quote with your favorite pic from 2025 (that you’re wiling to share on main) I dunno if it’s my fave-fave, but it’s fun! Last week I went to the Academy Museum, because Lane had a hand in one of the exhibits (!!!), and to—you know—check it out before I move, and they had a fake red carpet. 😏

🪴 Jessi G. 🪴@thatjessigal· Nov 9

Okay, I did one. 😏

The quote “The G train, Nermal!” Spoken by Tracy Jordan on the TV show “30 Rock” in the style of mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani’s election ad font/style. The letters are yellow and some have a red shadow. The background is an electric blue.

I also went to a Halloween-themed mutual aid/community-building event and it was really fun!

A skeleton decorated for Dia De Los Muertos. She stands on a wood deck. She has red and yellow flowers in her hair and a black shawl on her head. She is holding red-orange flowers in her hands and has a corn husk skirt. Behind her are green and yellow plants popping out from the ground. In the background are more trees a road and buildings. These sun is large and round behind her. It is starting to set.

Close up of Halloween decorations next to an awning. There are purple streamers and white ghosts and orange pumpkin ghosts against green trees and the sky.

A blow up black cat with face decorations. Yellow around one eye and yellow and purple around the other. On the cat’s forehead is an orange flower and a flourish of green, yellow and orange. The cat’s front paws are on two orange and black jack-o-lanterns. The cat is next to a building with a mural with corn stalks and water and an eclipse. The sun is setting, and there’s a nice glow.

Under the awning as the sun sets. The awning is lit with blue. There are lit up string lights and green and purple streamers. Ghosts hang from the awning. The skeleton woman is in the background lit pink. The sky is light purple and yellow and orange.

Remember these light displays from last December? They did ones for Halloween, too!

A lit up orange and green jack-o-lantern light display sitting among green trees on a grassy area. A few blow-up jack-o-lanterns sit next to the display on the ground. To the left of the screen are yellow lights coming up from the ground like wheat. These lights sit behind the jack-o-lantern as well.

A string of witches hats reaching across a black sky. The hats are purple, orange, and green. They have patterns on them, like polka dots and spider webs. To the left of the hats is a wooded awning. Behind that are green trees. These trees are also on the right of the screen as well.

Two blow-up lit up black and white sandworms, like the ones from Beetlejuice. Two red and pink heads are popping out of each worm. To the left, next to the worm is a tree covered in purple lights. In the distance behind the worms are green lights.

In the foreground is a tree with purple lights and a string of purple lights along the grass. In the background is a building with yellow string lights coming down the front of it. There are people behind the lights obscured by them. You can see the shadow of an adult carrying a child. Green lights are lighting the side of the house.

My Finch app bird’s really looking like her husband died under ~mysterious~ circumstances today… 🥀

A cartoon bird wearing a purple gothic-style dress with a black and white accents. She has red shoes with white spider webs and is wearing a gold necklace with a red jewel in the center. Her hat is purple with a black vail and a red rose. She is holding a drooping red rose. Next to her is a dark gray cat with yellow-green eyes, looking up at the bird suspiciously. The bird stands on a gray and tan stone walkway. Behind her is a black open fence brown vintage-style street lamps, and behind that is a green maze made of bushes. There is a faint fog in the area. At the back of the image is a large spooky-looking vintage castle-style house with many windows. The sky is orange and pink and lifts into darkness at the top.

Wait, this is random, but I have a photo of that theater from 2019. 😆 Have fun at your showing!

On the left side of the photo is the Laemmle’s Claremont movie theater. There is a large sign in neon blue and red. The Claremont part of the sign falls vertically in red and the Laemmle’s is in blue horizontally above. It lists the movies: The best of enemies, Shazam, Missing Link, Hellboy, and Us. There are multiple trees flanking the street. On one side there are pink flowers on the trees. On the other, it is various shades of green and yellow. In the center is a street light that I’ve covered with black digital marker. We see a white building behind the trees on the other side of the street. Further in the background are mountains. One looks white, like there is snow on it. Most of the photo is blue sky. This photo was taken in 2019 when I was walking around the area after Claremont Zine Fest.

I realized I haven’t posted any pics of myself since before the pandemic, so here are a few lil images of my majestic self. ✨ (The pics were taken in my parents’ room, hence the flower coverups, heh. I don’t have a full length mirror.)

Me with curly wavy dark brown hair and brown eyes. I have on some red lipstick. I am wearing a black dress with drawings of little orange foxes on it. In the background is black wallpaper with flowers on it and a drawing of a vase with flowers.

I have my dark brown hair up in double buns. I am wearing a white and black checkered shirt and black shorts with rainbow stripes on one side and a rainbow connecting two clouds on the other. I have on black tights. My shoes are pink and yellow. I have a bunch of flower images on the side of the photo to cover up my parents’ stuff.

Me in a black and white striped shirt with green trim around the arms and neck. On the chest are two rainbows. I am wearing a black velvet skirt, black tights, and the pink and yellow shoes. There are also flowers on this photo obscuring my parents’ stuff.

As a person with an English degree, I think I am henceforth taking this approach to anti-Humanities stuff. I fought enough. The anti-Humanities scientists can go ahead and lose all their funding and the scientists who Know Better™️ and the are anti-fascist can do all the science, kay? MmmBYEEEEE.

I went to a free market & resources event at a co-op today, and it was really lovely! I donated my zines to an art raffle and donated some clothes and kitchenware/accessories and some menstrual pads. The kitchenware/accessories & pads were popular! All of it got picked up!
