That’s what I figured but I feel like if it was hotter earlier in years before they can change the language a little bit lol

My boomer/late gen x coworker, who believes she is the center of the universe and everyone should be able to read her mind, yells into a room full of people "I have a call for you!" and then acts surprised when I had no idea she was talking to me. People have names for a reason 😭

Social media is feeling increasingly unsafe in this political climate. Definitely terrible for mental health. I'm going to go on walks, read books, grow plants, pet my cat, breathe deeply, take naps, and go swimming.

Watching both the country and my family simultaneously break apart has been fascinating, surreal, horrible and almost like being in a completely different dimension/reality than what I grew up in

I have to go to a wedding on Sunday and I feel so bad but I do not want to. I do not know how to field the question "how is your family?" in a socially acceptable way because my family is doing so much worse than anyone could possibly imagine.

I thought my boyfriend was joking when he said he wanted to watch the debate but I guess this is actually a thing we’re doing 😩 I cannot believe that 34 felonies and an insurrection later we’re doing a THIRD ROUND of presidential debates that involve Trump. WHAT ARE WE DOING???????

“You’ve maybe been reincarnated one too many times, and that could be why you’re snippy” is my most favorite comment I’ve ever seen in an internet argument.

I’m so sick of hearing conspiracy theories that Kate Middleton died and that’s why we haven’t seen her. Did people just collectively forget what a massive toll cancer treatment takes on a person? I find it so upsetting.

Hunter Biden is a convicted felon now so nobody gets to complain about Trump being unfairly convicted. The justice system did its thing. No witch hunts here 😇

Also rough watching as they post nonsense on social media. Their paranoia comes across very much as Karen behavior so of course they are being shredded for it.

For work lunches I’ve taken to just microwaving lunch meat and shredded cheese inside a whole wheat tortilla to eat along with my salad, and it is delicious.

My boyfriend’s dad is on his deathbed which is sad and also has long been expected but I’m learning so much about dying from this. The hospital has stopped giving him food and fluids and it has never occurred to me that people stop that at some point 🥺

You can tell a lot about a person based on which language they chose to study in high school. For example, my brother picked Latin. 💀

Made it to Los Angeles and just learned from my aunt that my grandmother’s childhood home in 1927 was on Wilshire and Sawtelle where the VA hospital now sits, and can probably be seen in this photo I took today
