Today's "light duties" project was supposed to be putting on the new toilet seat. It turned into an 8 hour ordeal largely because the absolute (redacted)s who put the seat on like 30 years ago? Used a flange bolt instead of the proper hardware

HIV is no longer a guaranteed death sentence. (Related, but not directly) Queer elders are actually becoming commonplace.

Social media loves talking about how everything is getting worse. But what’s something that you’ve seen get _better_ in your lifetime?

For context for anyone seeing this, whoever is running that account has a dozen bullshit "film fest" accounts that just keep following people en masse. Every time I block one another one follows

People get really upset when I say that at this point, I just wish the blue team had won - because they would be doing the same shit less efficiently, and the self-proclaimed moderates would be mad about the state of things.

In Mark Carney’s vision for Canada, finance trumps human rights every single time. For all his talk of values, contempt for human rights runs consistently throughout his actual policy decisions. This is not pragmatism. It is a conscious betrayal of fundamental ethics that diminishes Canada. 🧵1/

Instead there is little to no will among the population to do anything about the country getting absolutely gutted for the sake of the billionaire class. We are catching up in the race to the bottom *with a quickness*

What's that you say? A UK study aimed at proving that ADHD and autism are over-diagnosed actually found that we are still under-diagnosing both, and lack access to assessments remains a huge barrier to support? What a shocking and unexpected conclusion! www.politicsuk.com/p/fonagy-rev...

Getting in on the vibe! I just replaced the old and busted, 30-something ceiling fan in my new living room with this beauty!

I love being an adult with free will and money. I just replaced a dead lightbulb with a new bulb that is both brighter and warmer than the previous bulb. The living room is such a ✨vibe✨

Since 2013… 1,208 children have been shot at school. 0 children have received gender reassignment surgery at school. We've turned imaginary issues into national emergencies while turning a blind eye to real threats.

There's this phenomenon that a lot of my neurotypical friends struggle to understand: As an autistic person for whom social interaction is incredibly taxing, I have to prepare myself to lose whole days of productivity elsewhere when I teach. I love teaching. It's probably the form of labor that

Iron Maiden. Hearing that amazing cacophony of sound, with lyrics about crimes against indigenous peoples, and the entirety of the Rime of the Ancient Mariner? It ruined me for most music, not just most metal. My thirst for such brilliance in both craft and message remains to this day rarely sated

The James Cameron Avatar films answer the question: what if a nature documentary that had no plot or characters somehow managed to be very racist?

Security guard one said hi to every morning for 10 years almost denied me access to the building today. Every single man is watching. Yes. I'm that bitch today. Have a dirty mirror bathroom selfie 🤍🩷🩵 Trust. It's even better in person

Love this for me. Doctor didn't tell me that when I was going for my blood test that it would also require a pee test. I went before coming. Whatever, I have a huge coffee with me and I'm on spiro. Pee will happen, but I could have been out of here already!

Love my Ashmore boys 💜

Today, I disassembled and ripped out the deathtrap combo: the window AC installed in the carcass of a dead wall AC, and the far too low, worn and beat up OTR microwave that was mounted underneath it on shelf brackets. Installed a proper upper cabinet. Installed a new OTR that matches my appliances

Also got groceries! Okay. Gotta get laundry in, tidy up the construction debris, then this girl is getting her ass in a shower and into something soft
