it’s a screenshot of a photo showing up blank because bluesky is not processing photos right now. it’s also subtly, by this alt text existing, a reminder of how helpful alt text is for everyone!

so this is cool

I am crushed Bluesky isn't letting me see this.

Very cool website where images won't load now the uptime this month is atrocious.

That is for sure a cyclops.

I know I'm working in a really good place. When I mentioned to a coworker I was going through some things with perimenopause, she leaned over and said "we should talk". Yes! Please! I need menopause friends!

Haven't cried. My anxiety has had me in fight-or-flight mode for hours, which is leading to my back feeling *real* tight. There are no bears chasing you, brain!

Today’s goal. Get through a full work day without crying. Hormones are a bitch.

As Menopause Nears, Be Aware It Can Trigger Depression And Anxiety, Too Women with a history of depression and anxiety are at a higher risk of having a flare-up during the time leading up to menopause. And getting doctors to take the issue seriously can be challenging.

"WE'RE TURNING THE FROGS GAY"

Infowars, now 110% more gay.

Poe: it doesn't have to have tentacles to be cosmic horror, howard
Lovecraft: what are you talking about?
King: edgar's right, it's more about the insignificance of man in an unfeeling universe
Lovecraft: don't tell me about cosmic horror!
Lovecraft: i invented it!

Because men.

Booked in appointments with my therapist and my doctor (to discuss my meds). Should I also call a brain surgeon to replace this loser brain I have?

"Do you want some toast?"

*HEAD BOP*

(that means yes, I would love some toast)

The last one is also sneeze face.

I can't really handle hardly any confrontation with crying immediately afterwards. My brain is so fucking broken. Is it perimenopause? It is my period? It is the state of the world? Maybe it's goddamn maybelline.

Just over 100 years ago, Jacques Lartigue photographed his partner ‘Bibi’ (Madeleine Messager), quietly reading in a sunlit corner at the Hotel du Cap Eden-Roc, Cap d’Antibes. She lives on reading here forever... (1920)

"Dude…no way” 🌖

Going back to work tomorrow. I still have an immense sadness, and I don’t know what to do about it.

Since I’m trying to be more open with my emotions 😒, I had a really overwhelming day at work on Friday. My mental cup kept overflowing and I expelled it through tears. (Yeah, tears didn’t work)

I curled into myself over the weekend, even though I’m trying to be better about that.

@megannn_lynne 3 months ago Whenever my therapist urges me to be kind with myself & asks “How would you talk to a friend having similar thoughts?” it’s like 1) I don't have any friends 2) if I did have friends, they wouldn't be whiny little losers 3) I’m gonna quickly change the subject. That’s a cool clock

Tweet from David Hughes (@david8hughes): [at the chameleon store] Me: do you have any chameleons? Clerk: I've no fucken idea

A golden doodle is smiling excitedly at a black dog who is looking back at him calmly.

HI HELLO HI FRIEND I JUST NOTICED THAT I’M A DOG AND YOU’RE A DOG AND I WAS WONDERING DO YOU WANT TO BE DOGS TOGETHER

The replies to this are all good but making me realize that the 90s were like three different decades, musically speaking. R&B, grunge, and bubblegum pop.

Finished the main story in Wylde Flowers, the credits rolled (literally - this is a game made by human people), then my character got a letter in her mailbox thanking me for playing the game!

Bonus? I can still wander about and do side quests for the townsfolk.

girl are you the Strait of Hormuz 'cause last week I didn’t know you exist but now I need in

Just to be extremely April, the forecast for the 17th is EVERYTHING.

Sun, rain, snow, nearly double-digit temperatures above freezing, wind, wind-chill of nearly double-digit negative temperatures.

Birding? Data centers disrupt habitats.

Religion? AI cults and JesusBot 9000 who suspiciously says white supremacist stuff.

Art? Everyone is now suspicious of everyone else and no one is buying.

Cooking? Good luck with this recipe that chatGPT barfed up.
