How beautiful is the last glow of sunset at the #BeaufortHotel in Beaufort, NC? We took a little weekend trip and had a great time! It was SO dog friendly! And the food was so good! Because it's outside of town it's so peaceful and romantic! I highly recommend going!
This clickbait article freaking out about cocaine drops is just fundamentally misunderstanding what cocaine does/is. It's a vasoconstricter - it reduces blood flow creating numbness through loss of blood flow to tissues. That's why a lot is bad. A little works great.
My current read is Hardcore Happiness by Reid Chancellor a great graphic non fiction work about his mental health journey and punk rock history. It was hard to put it down long enough to write this, it's really engaging so far! Punk rock has always been my happy place, so I really like this.
Next up on the reading list! It's a pretty safe bet that this will be good.
I finally finished 'Sacré Bleu' - a story whose main character runs a bakery and is a painter in Paris, France In the first half of the book I found out I had a profound wheat allergy, while I feel much better, it imbued the second half of the novel with a certain personal poignance.
This book made me take up drawing, I don't know how I feel about that.
A little downturn at the edge of my smile for no reason, but I'm good! I hope!
Book 6 is finished! I liked Encountering Kali better than I thought I would- Sarah Caldwell's essay 'Margins at the Center' was an absolute banger, I guess Harvard still has some talent, after all. Next up: more blue women with Sacre Bleu by @theauthorguy.bsky.social! What are you reading?
I've got snow in MC and my mother is in Washington state where it's 50° - could we please focus on climate change?
I thought, "How fun would it be to get some Bailey's for the snow storm?!" But I forgot so I asked my ex if he could grab some for me - I now have enough Bailey's for forever! He must have grabbed the LARGEST bottle they have - so yeah, come hang...
Book #6 for the year, and I don't know why I do this to myself. It's from a University Press so while the topic is interesting, the book probably isn't. I guess I'm going to find out.
Happy 3 year anniversary of my neighbor's dog FLIPPING ME OFF because I wouldn't let my dog put to play with him! 🤣
Debuting my side shave with updo! I'm going to shave it higher next time - going for a busy Mom warrior on the go kind of thing....
Book 5 of the year - I'm nursing it it's so good! Dashiell Hammett is one of the best, and The Continental Op is a brilliant protagonist with a mess dame by his side. I love it. I absolutely love it.
Book #4 and folks - I hate this. The art isn't good is the nicest thing I can say. The writing is godawful. It's so cringe. I deeply regret picking it up. I'm going to finish it, I always finish them - but I'm going to hate every moment. This might be my least favorite book ever.
Beginning book #2 of the new year - you can't go wrong with Terry Pratchett! And - yep I got it new! Fancy fancy! (The closest shop is new and second hand and they have some great second hand books!)
I'm almost finished with my first book of the 2026 - and folks it's a banger! I've really enjoyed it! Thank you @theauthorguy.bsky.social If you haven't read his work and you like irreverent humor with heart check it out!
TIL that the roly-poly (aka fat pig, cheese log, cheesy pig, armadillo bug, sow bug, potato bug, wood bug, wood pig, hog-louse,carpenter bug, and it's actual name woodlouse) are crustaceans! Like shrimp or lobster! The only insect I don't find icky and it's not even an insect!!
My ex is chauffeurring us to brunch this morning! I feel so elegant even though I'm in my hoodie!
We had a lovely Christmas dinner at The Willard rooftop in downtown Raleigh! Their chef is the BEST!
I got the Christmas mugs up! We're only doing this and a tree this year because my pain has been so bad.
This is my bird. I live at the poverty level at the moment, but I turned out this. That shame spread below was created with a whole job and salary that should have created a better, and better looking meal than mine. And yet.... and I'm not surprised. You can't teach good taste.
If you can see Spite live - you should!!! So fucking good live!!!!
I miss cooking - but I kinda dig hotel Thanksgiving!!!! It's sooooo chill!
