Science Nerd w/degrees in biochem, nursing. Our home is a bit of a zoo, with the cats and dog. Mom of a grown adult & unsure how that happened. Minnesotan now, but I grew up in Northern Wisconsin, so I don't do Minnesota-nice. 🏳️‍🌈

Please for the love of all that is good and holy, don’t use a “puke bowl.” Be kind to yourself and your family and get the much easier to handle and toss, without incurring any psychic damage, emesis bags. You can get a stack of 50 for not a lot of $. Or a nurse friend can some in scrub pockets.

We got our new sofa delivered today, finally. Ended up being 3 hours past our delivery window, but who’s counting, right? Lizzy seems to approve of it.

We’ve been waiting since 2 pm for our new couch to be delivered and I may expire from anxious boredom in the next few minutes.

regardless of what you think of America there are a lot of good people here worth fighting for, and that’s what I’m going to hold onto regardless of what happens in November and those people are worth celebrating

Timeline cleanser. Just down the street from the rental house is a house with 2 dogs. One is a basset hound. It climbs up the little rock wall there and sits in the top of the playhouse. It takes the slide down. It is adorable.

Happy Fourth of July, everyone. Now excuse me, I have to unbutton the top button of my jeans.

I came to my 14 year old with a concern about social media. He literally took his glasses off, rubbed his temples, and asked: “what have the moms on the internet said now?” 😯🫤😆

FYI, I just found out for my Minnesotan folks that Cub Foods sells the Outshine mango frozen fruit bars with the Tajin seasoning. This was not something I was aware existed, so thanks for Bluesky.
My life was changed at the grocery store today.

Today is the day of salads. I have made the strawberry pretzel salad. I have the cucumber salad chilling in the fridge. And now I’m making some hard boiled eggs for the potato salad.

Neil Gaiman, *63yo, insists that his sexual relationship with his live-in nanny,*23, which started on her first night at his home, was consensual. It’s not the 80’s sir. The power imbalance & her dependency on you for employment & housing, make this at a minimum coercive & far from consensual.

Trigger warning: do not look this up or read any detailed posts on this—especially if you’re a rape or child sexual abuse victim. As I am both, this was not a great thing for me to stumble upon in my timeline.
people who actually get news from normal news sources and not social media, how much coverage has the new trump/epstein stuff gotten?

I feel like I should buy stock in bubble wrap, as I have so many things to pack up in the effort of depersonalizing our home for selling it.

As someone whose PCP describes me as her “favorite medical train wreck” (love her—she’s wonderful and hilarious), this will always be true for me.
