I’m surprised she hasn’t come over here herself and attacked it. She ripped our landlord a new one yesterday for weed whacking too close to the fence between the two properties. She’s kind of a jerk, tbh. One of those neighbors who posts a lot on Nextdoor.
The house next door has been for sale for a year and the ivy comes from that side of the fence. Right next to the huge patch of bamboo shoving the fence over.
The other side is a professional gardener so y’know…balance 🤷🏻♀️
Ours are slowly being strangled by ivy that I am not allowed to touch because this is a rental and I am mad about it (and also plotting to going out with shears, possibly in the dead of night).
We had hail last week and it's been raining nearly nonstop but of course we got two false spring days in the 70s F. We're going to coast along between 50s and 60s F for the next two weeks at least.

Elizabeth Bennet from the 1995 limited series stands in front of an ornate fireplace. She is wearing a salmon colored dress and smiling awkwardly at someone off screen. The text reads "Woman With Amazing Rack Told She Has Beautiful Eyes"
I've seen those trucks!

With the constant stream of absolute *shit* in our lives, I'm getting a bit nervous about my annual cardiologist visit next month.
A cartoon by Will Santino A man sits in a lemonade factory. To his left are many many containers of lemonade. To his right is a chute that is spewing out lemons. There are so many lemons. Lemons piling up on the floor, lemons on the table, lemons slamming into the man who has his head on the table in exhaustion. He says, "I'm so tired."
Made it to 44. Pretty good for a kid they said probably wouldn’t make it past puberty. #chd
The backyard of our rental has both English ivy and bamboo creeping and I’m itching to rip it out but…rental.
“The Pope was chosen in 2 days. Your remote hire doesn’t need 5 rounds of interviews. I said what I said.”
Everyone I know is going through the shit and people wonder why I’m in a constant state of rage.
Justin McElroy is a dab hand in the kitchen, I hear.

Murals painted on top of each other in various states of fading - on a brick wall. They advertise the Pythian Temple, an outfitting company (for $1/week), and beer.

Love this collection of murals downtown.
That sweater is peak.
Also Return to Oz scared the crap out of me. The Wheelers haunted my nightmares and I think it's when I first recognized gaslighting and learned about electroshock therapy. Also, y'know...flooding.
Jaws. I think I was maybe 7. I still fear swimming in natural bodies of water because around the same time I went river fishing with my dad and they caught a sturgeon or a pike or something and it was enormous.
"The Fly"??? At 6? Wowza. That is traumatic.
I read all your posts! I am just *very* bad at replying because I have been dogpiled on in the past for extremely stupid things.

I would just like to know how we filed in January and had it accepted in February and still haven’t received our return.

Why do smoke alarm batteries never die at dinner time, only the middle of the night/early morning?
The text reads: Make me nimble in discernment and ruthless in truth. Whatever and whoever seeks to tarnish and gaslight, tear down and consume for its own purposes, let it be dragged into the great bonfire that is your light.
From Kate Bowler:
We’ve saved prob thousands boycotting Target and Amazon and don’t plan on stopping. The last thing we need to do is get our rxs transferred somewhere else.
