Joy (my sourdough starter) is 1 day old. My ADHD is already annoyed that I can’t bake with it yet.

I’m going to try sourdough bread. I’m definitely a novice baker so I’m not sure how successful I’ll be. My starter’s name is Joy. I guess we’ll see how it goes!

This is genius level planning.

Welp, we tried to run bipartisan legislation so that Members with newborns could vote remotely, and rather than allow the legislation—the Speaker SHUT THE HOUSE DOWN and canceled votes for the rest of the week. 

This is what’s happening in the House right now. ⬇️

What is the rest of the world saying about Corey Booker’s filibuster?

Just loving living in a capitalist hellscape today. Company says go preach to the world how great we are. I say pay for my professional membership so that I can go preach how great we are. Company says no, you work in HR, you’re a cost center, you don’t add value. We don’t have budget for that.

Anyone in the Chicago suburbs, please follow and subscribe to the podcast!

So cursed

No this is excellent!!

Hell yes. We don’t shrink to their level, we keep fighting for our rights and our values.

Illinois: it’s time to start gearing up for the next election. It’s hyper local and has an outsized impact on your daily lives!

When companies have their backs against a wall, their true values come through. Don’t let them steamroll you. Stand up for what is right, even if it is ultimately out of your control. Integrity is one of the only things we have left to stand on.

Did I subconsciously procrastinate last week so that I’d have a ton of work to do today that would keep me busy enough to not think about anything else? Idk, but it’s working.

I wouldn’t be surprised if TikTok really is a security threat. It also facilitated good things for a lot of people. We also need regulation of American social media apps. All of these things can be true at once.

I just looked up at the TV and saw the last name is spelled Kupp. I don’t watch football closely, I’m a Bears fan.

Is the Vikings QB calling Cooper Cup?? That would be hilarious.

Is Brandon Johnson active trying to become the most hated mayor in recent Chicago history? #congestionpricing

This is great! I’ve been worried if I’m missing out on calcium since becoming lactose intolerant a few years ago. Thank you for the good and practical info.

I love Michael Cera as Barclay! 😆

Just take screenshots of everything. They’re not going to restrict vile shit any more? Start collecting receipts. Find ways to use them later.

Every day we get closer to the 20th I feel worse. How do I distract myself on that day? Call off work and have an extended LOTR marathon? I need to find my old DVDs and break out the extras.

Why are there not LOTR style extras for Wicked? I know they could have put together DAYS worth of content. Crossing my fingers for a special extended edition with all of the goods.

Decided to watch Slow Horses while waiting for new episodes of Silo to come out, and holy shit why aren’t more people talking about this show??

It’s a real tragedy that Miley Cyrus isn’t hosting a NYE special.

I saw the movie all the way through last night and am convinced that TFG based his entire personality on Mr. Potter. Also, E! understood the assignment playing that on repeat all day.

Brb going to make another donation to Wikipedia.

Merry Swiftmas to all!

As much as parts of Love Actually haven’t aged well, the message is exactly what I need right now. The opening monologue with the airport scene softened my hardened heart tonight.

It’s scary and infuriating how relevant American Idiot is (minus the slurs, of course).

Apple needs to come up with a way to ask Siri to remind you to do something when you get up. AI could detect the steps you take or something, triggering the reminder. This would be so helpful, especially for people with #adhd!
