Went hiking and kayaking with friends and then went for lunch. Ibuprofen all around as soon as drinks were delivered. A member of the old crowd now. It’s official.

The kids were doing an impression of me haunting the house, which mostly included “me” trying to obtain things they wanted me to add to the grocery list. And if that’s not the most depressing and real embodiment of my life rn, I don’t know what is.

Just adjusting. Lots of big changes in my house. It’d been almost 13 years since I was gainfully employed. It’s been hard on everyone. But we can do hard things, the army taught us that, if nothing else.

New study by Linsey Marr:

“We aerosolized SARS-CoV-2 & pulled it through masks. After 1hr we were able to recover infectious virus from fabric masks but not an N95 or surgical mask. When we pressed artificial skin against the masks we found viral RNA but no infectious virus on the skin.” #MasksWork

Good! I got a job! All that lamenting for years about it being hard to go back to work and I feel like I slid right into it. Found a great environment, a good fit. Doing infant and early childhood mental health. Pretty far from my work with veterans but I love it.

Justin Timberlake gives me the ick something awful. And now that he’s trying to rehab his image, I keep seeing him promoted everywhere. It’s gross.

The irony of a teaching hospital telling me that they wouldn’t “count” any internship or unpaid labor (even though my internship was a paid one) as work history.

“No states that banned abortion offer paid paternal leave.” A sentence that says everything.

In clinical trials of new treatments, when the treatment is clearly and obviously immediately effective it is sometimes considered unethical to continue to withhold it from the control group. Pretty sure we passed that milestone about a decade ago with basic income experiments.

That’s smart. I definitely saved it on my computer after I looked it all up.

Had to trace my address history back 28 years. I have one address for ever 2ish years of my life. It’s insanity.

At this point, if you’re a cis “ally” and you vacation in Florida just for fun when you could choose somewhere else, that’s a massive side-eye from me

This is my biggest fear right now. Both cars are paid off so it’s just a ticking time bomb waiting to go off

Hanging a fire blanket in my kitchen after my chef teenager had an incident which he described as “just a small fire”. There’s a fire extinguisher too. You know, just more…

I was just saying this to a friend. Getting a “new” car feels like an increasingly out of reach thing. Lots of incentive to keep and maintain my current vehicle and hope for no accidents ever.

I said today: “I always check the names, just in case” this is a trauma response. The military is a small place, but not that small.
