Hinge is a humiliation ritual. What do you mean I have to send you a line to send a like? At least tinder lets me send my like in secret and if we both like each other, we match, never say a word, and THEN we can ignore each other. Having to *gulp* put myself out there like that feels savage. 😭

Let me just say the last 24 hours were a whirlwind.
Bless my boss for not questioning when I said I had a hair emergency and had to take the day off and bless the ladies who tag teamed my head to fix someone else’s work who I called a friend. Friends don’t let friends leave like thisssss.
Madly respect people who put “Workout: Never” on their dating profile.
Oh my god we get it you have a torso.
I have delayed chopping off my hair by booking a cut and balayage. However…historically, this is what I do right before snapping and shavjng my head. 🥴🤪
News app fake out yet again. Please never start the headline with “President Trump has” unless he has.
New episode drops tomorrow 👻

A guy told me that he’s not attracted to men with long hair and now I’m convinced that’s actually the reason why I’ve been single for 7 years and not actually because I’m canonically annoying and asexual.
it’s monday and im already spiralling 🤪
I THOUGHT THIS WAS THE BEAR 😭
This is how I discover there's another season of drag race.
I’ve taken my HR phishing course you can’t fool me
I need workouts to be enjoyable. There’s nothing I hate more than opening up my workout schedule and seeing a bunch of movements that are either going to injure me or kill me through boredom. This is why I work out once a week lol.
Went for my second walkthrough before signing the lease and get measurements and I'M GLAD I DID -- a horribly foul odor like rancid buttered popcorn was permeating the apartment. Thought it was the (closed) restaurant downstairs...no. Dried out p-traps which have been resolved...time to sign. 😮💨
This has to be the worst restaurant idea I have ever heard.
I've run through all 24 (in)elligble bachelors in my city and Toronto (which all get left swipes bc border crossing) so Tinder is forcing 20-somethings, straight women, and men with their mugshots as their pics on me. I cannot do this anymore.
I need to become datable which, unfortunately, means creating an inauthentic yet alluring persona while also pretending to be sexual.
So the building I’m moving into was built in the 1820’s and where my apartment unit is was allegedly where a man was tortured and shackled by free masons and his ghost is said to haunt it. Which is so cute and fun I love it.
Just rolled my eyes so hard in a zoom meeting but forgot it was being recorded so I had to pretend something was in my eye for two minutes.
Whelp! They offered me $170 off a month for a 13 month lease which is better than nothing! (Aka one month free). I know it’s so the renewal is in a higher demand season but hey. I’ll take it!
Not the cheaper unit I originally wanted, but it’s the one that’ll be better for me.
I also want to use food to get more in touch with my heritage. I want to be in a more Chicano time in my life.
I’ve been having a lot of anxiety lately about life. And death. I feel most people deal with existential feelings by finding spirituality but I find myself drawn to the sensory, human, and tangible parts of life. Like food. Been getting back into cooking real food and recipes again. It feels good.
Dan…Phil…it is too early in the morning for this. Maybe you need to go back in the closet and think about what you’ve done. Maybe you’re a little TOO free. 😩
It doesn’t help I filed my taxes in January and got my IL and Federal refunds at the end of February but still no movement on NYS.
Move in costs are so stressful. Anyone else precariously broke when moving?? Between the last apartment holding a full months rent, needing 2 months to move in, plus movers…yeesh.
One thing Chicago has right was only allowing landlords to charge a move in fee plus first months rent.
Also the unit I like is above a restaurant dining room which was wasn’t fully open yet so I want to get a sense for the noise.
The units have already dropped 150-300$ in price already and have been in the market for ~6 months so i may have some leverage? Idk. I’ve never been assertive before 🤪
Im trying to (gulp) negotiate rent on a building I saw today? Who am I.
Tbf they did a bait and switch on one and then said all units had in-unit when its shared and paid. Their units down the street (larger, with unit) are the same price or cheaper.
This building is just 215 years old and cooler.
This week’s ghost story has several variations…but which one touches the truth? Learn the legend and the history of Montpelier, Vermont’s college hall. Tune in wherever you get your podcasts or watch on YouTube!
I love the way my podcast looks on video...but aint nobody gonna watch an hour of my yapping. My format caters to audio (as a podcast should) though the seeing historic documents and photographs is always great. I just wish there wasn't such a focus on vertical.
Dropped a new episode of the podcast today...one of the more fun cases I got to cover. Not sure how much longer I can sustain this output but I'm having fun and that's really all that matters!
