Forgot to say it's VELVET!!!!!!

I ordered a jade green loveseat for my home office last night because if this world is going to end I’d like to at least have something nice to sit on.

I’ll say! Although I’ve learned a positive side effect to the CSO project that’s shut down all the roads in our neighborhood is that the construction crew used their equipment to plow our street so they can keep working today. Couldn’t tell you the last time I saw a city plow on our block. Progress!

Official snow fall report from Lansing’s Westside: up to the neck of an HVR bottle.

Seems like on a day when democracy continues to crumble AND you have 8 scheduled meetings you shouldn't also have to answer emails?

Everything is a mess across the board but all I genuinely have wanted to talk about for the past month is Bad Bunny's new album, DeBÍ TiRAR MáS FOToS. I can't stop listening to it.

Right back at you my friend.

Yes definitely pissed but I’m ok. It’s just like, that on top of the past two weeks was too much!

One thing I learned about me though is that when I’m being mugged I just stare directly in the person’s eyes without saying a word and don’t let go. This happened last night and the bag was Thai takeout. Don't mess with me. Don't mess with my food. Not in this economy.

OMG I just looked at my total savings for 2024 and it was $1369.55. Incredible! Support your local library!

Just logged on to my Capital Area District Library account and they are now showing me how much I'm saving using their materials in the moment. With the four books I have checked out we're sitting at $52.85. Now that's what I call savings volume 517!

Ok so as it turns out blasting the new Bad Bunny album while in the Olympic Broil line is one way to revive yourself after this shit week.

White House orders government DEI employees to be placed on leave | CNN Politics Employees in any federal diversity, equity, inclusion and accessibility offices will be placed on paid administrative leave “effective immediately,” according to a post from White House press secretar...

A heads up as it looks like most federal employees working on accessibility will be put on leave and eventually fired.

This is exactly my thinking!

But also I'm still donating my time and money to local and national orgs supporting disability communities, immigrant/refugee communities, LGBTQIA2S+ communities, women's rights communities, and several others that are directly under attack in this moment.

Accessibility Statement | The White House This commitment to accessibility for all begins with this site and our efforts to ensure all functionality and all content is accessible to all Americans.

Well, the new administration already took down the White House #Accessibility Statement.

So far I've dropped $86 on Girl Scout cookies to support my friends' kids just today. This is where I'm placing my current energy amidst *gestures widely*

I wanted to shirk my responsibilities today. But I just got an email from a student thanking me for talking to them about the #a11y of their product at CES and to let me know they’ve already started making changes to make it more accessible.

And I’m reminded that as long as I’m here I’ll fight.

Recently I started singing the Sanasa song from The Simple Life as I open Asana in the morning. Anyone else?

A+ work right here

Ohhh it's so special to be the first person to check out a fresh book!

Called them to see what this was from and it was an appointment I had on October 1, 2021.

TWENTY TWENTY ONE!!!

This has given me a renewed sense of fulfillment in procrastinating on all of my work until at least next year.

Dang we need to get my spouse on here to resurrect #AzteksOfLansing

Ok but how much do you feel hashtag blessed when you roll into OlyBro and there’s no line?

This morning I serenely laid mine eyes upon Wynken, Blynken, and Nod during yoga, then picked up a brekkie sando from The New Daily Bagel, and then started my work day with a winter-scented candle from Sparrow Bloom. Let's give it up for Lansing amirite?
