Why am I only learning about nail glue now? It's SUCH a lifesaver when it comes to acrylic tips...

I did! They were AMAZING!

Had a great time at the Darcy and Jer show in Saskatoon last night. I look deeply neurotypical in this picture with gradient tinted glasses and noise cancelling headphones to deal with the lighting and sound of the venue π
cis friends i want you to really understand this horror
imagine if in half of US states if you were in an accident/got sick and had to go to the hospital
the medical professionals there would FORCE THE WRONG HORMONE INTO YOUR BODY, making it change in ways antithetical to who you are
IMAGINE IT

Why does hearing aid jewellery have to be so niche? I just want shiny stuff to make my hearing aids look fancy...

Was out of the house for 12 hours yesterday... Can't remember the last time I did that... First solo trip to Saskatoon with the new car, and first time up and back on the same day. Charged the car three times (once on the way there, once on the way back, and once when I got back). Successful day!
Cheddar peers through a clear bowl bed that's hanging on the wall. Inside the bowl are toys: a green mouse, a blue ball, and a brown fluffy ball. His eyes are curious and it looks like he has a smile.

Filling out insurance claims paperwork ranks *just* above bashing my head off my desk. Barely... π€¨
Anyone can become disabled at any time.
Your life can change in an instant, no matter how strong and healthy you think you are.
People will leave you. Funds will dry up. Life will get tougher.
Itβs not a moral failing.
Itβs a minority group you can join anytime.

I'm lucky to have the support of the sweetest boy through this journey, in addition to all of my human supports. Liev came into my life at one of its darkest points, and has been by my side ever since. He is a source of strength for me, as is my spouse, and my chosen family π§‘
I am not currently being abused, but between my family of origin, and my life in the military, abuse was a fact of my life. It may not have been overt, but it has damaged me. Now that I have acknowledged this reality, the healing can begin, and it's going to be a long journey, but I have support β€οΈβπ©Ήπ§‘
Mental health healing journeys are neither easy, nor linear. Progress doesn't mean you won't have setbacks, and setbacks don't mean that you can't continue to progress. I've recently realised that I've been abused for much of my life, and while it has thrown me for a loop, it just means I am human.π§‘
So apparently my car, which is set up for OTA updates, can't do OTA updates because Bluelink Extra isn't available in Canada...? Man, I wish Hyundai would have told me some of this stuff when I bought the car. Don't get me wrong, I love the car, it's just piddly little stuff that's annoying me... π€
your chronically ill friend... isn't lazy - they're sick. isn't "making excuses" - they're sick. isn't flaky - they're sick. isn't avoiding you - they're sick. isn't attention-seeking - they're sick. isn't faking it - they're sick. isn't "too young" - they're sick. isn't "negative" - they're sick. doesn't "just need to try harder." isn't failing - they're surviving. doesn't need your judgment - they need your support. isn't a burden - they're doing their best to carry one.

Ah crap, it's been just over a week since my manicure, and one of my nails is already starting to lift... π«

Boy oh boy did I buy a popular car... So popular that they're skipping a model year in Canada AND dropping it entirely in the US market! π

a four-panel stick-figure cartoon panel one: three standing figures. from left to right, a guy wearing a necktie looking at his phone, an angry MAGA guy yelling FUCK YOUR FUCKIN POST FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU, and a rando just standing there like an NPC. panel two: the guy looking at his phone shows MAGA guy his hand, causing MAGA to vanish. the word Block hangs in the air where fuckface once was. a green-bordered in-game message appears, reading "+2 Mental Health." now the rando is suddenly interested. panel three: as our man continues doom-scrolling, a sly grin on his face, the rando on the right puts on a punch-me face and snarls: "Typical lefty, blocking everyone who disagrees with-" panel four phone guy shows the hand to punch-me face, causing the rando to vanish. the word Block hangs in the air where that dickhead was. a green-bordered in-game message appears again, reading "+2 Mental Health."
Doctor AND couples counseling on a Saturday? What the fresh hell is this? π€
Preseason doesn't kick off until May, unfortunately... Until then, I'm watching random car repair YouTube π
May can't come soon enough for me... CFL is my bread and circuses!
It's a 2014 Subaru Outback. Me and her have been through some absolutely insane conditions together, be it rain, snow, hail, sleet, dark, wind, etc... She's gotten me home safe almost ever single time! (Only a couple of tow truck trips in there π)
Welp, my gas car now gets plugged in too... It just gets plugged in to make sure the battery isn't flat in the event I need to drive it... In fairness, it has earned its retirement π 450,000km and still going!
Especially for an airborne division...
Well deserved honour for Alex. Fingers crossed that the Broncos do the right thing and re-sign him.
Hmmm, cancelling a training event for 82nd Airborne Division doesn't seem concerning at all...
