  You think it isn't going to happen to you and suddenly your stitches are spitting. Currently have one (1) hole in my left scar, slightly oozing, and at least two (2) others on my right side that I'm pretty sure are waiting to blow. It's nothing serious. It's mostly annoying. And also wtf bodies are so weird 😆 they sometimes just don't get the memo that stitches need to be dissolved. "Here, you can have this one back", like some weird kind...

  I can't believe I've been fucking around trying to get this Logitech webcam to play nice with my M1 Mac since 2022. I tried various Logitech apps to fiddle with the settings; no dice. I finally cracked when I ran a camera test a couple days ago and got like a very wobbly 12 FPS from it but 30 FPS steady from the built-in camera. Bought a Ugreen webcam, plugged it in today, ran camera test, and without any driver/software/any intervention, I immediately got a steady 30 FPS. Hones...

  Today was rough. It's not every day that your partner tells you during couple's therapy that they don't think you're compatible because they don't think they can meet your needs by expressing an emotion once in a while. Too much effort and they would find it "playacting" while unmasking their autism. Look, I was ready for de-escalation and was fairly sure that that's where we were headed anyway. But, my dude, that's a low...

  CW: food, baking I just searched "alternatives to banana bread when you can't possibly look at another banana again" but no dice. 😆 So perhaps the hive mind can process this request better. The long story: For a while now I’ve been making banana bread (sometimes with CBD flowers ground up in it) with chocolate drops in, and then sliced and frozen it. Easy quick snack, defrosts quickly in the microwave, generally inoffensive. But both my partner’s and my autism (autisms?) are turn...

  apparently I'm now accidentally attaching screenshots to toots and then confusing myself with it. I should go to bed. Goodnight, pocket friends. Good talks today, good talks. Maybe we can save humanity after all.

  So I think I might be under-eating? It’s a strange concept for me, given I’ve been overweight for a good two decades and also am actually struggling to shed the extra fat. But that is very likely due to MCAS fucking with my system and hEDS/MCAS fucking with my exercise schedule. I’ve never counted calories, I just don’t have the patience for that. But the last few days I’ve been trying to track my food intake with the Pump App, Arnie’s workout app which has a pretty intuitive, chill way for tra...

  I’m trapped in our relatively small office with window and door closed and one or both of these dogs have just farted. And I’m in a meeting and trying desperately not to show my anguish on my face. SEND HELP!

  Me when people ask questions about tasks that are already answered on the tasks: “All the information is in the task”. So yeah, I just accidentally channeled Alex Horne in a meeting 😆 #Taskmaster
