1st picture. A blood pressure cuff at 2:36 am that reads 172 systolic over 106 diastolic. Pulse reads 145.
S selfie of me. Blonde hair slicked back. Red oval glasses, and a hospital mask over my face.
PoTS flair. Always fun to be here.
douche bags.
>:( WTF.
A federal judge just ruled the White House broke the law by pulling down a public site that tracked Congressional spending.
Why’d they yank it?
Because people were catching DOGE making fraudulent claims and inflating “savings” that didn’t exist.
Transparency isn’t optional.
my adorable Kanien'kéha mini-dictionary is in progress!
But now I feel the sudden urge to explain I didn't BUY TWO. 😂One was given to me by a friend: hurrycane her grandma had. The other is a cheap grocery store cane.

Who? W/e. release the names.
Fun fact. I have ADHD and more then likely Autism. I function... kind of. But the biggest thing is the sensory processing. SO I managed to find this ADORABLE tiny journal. It's really soft and fuzzy, and shaped like a little bear holding a donut.
It'll be my portable Kanien'kéha dictionary.
Someone go dump that shit into their food and see fast they change it.
Ahhh, I want the strawberry one *__* But I already have two canes and I can't afford it. 😂😭
This stinks to high heaven.
#Beavers- good environment. They let fish flourish, rehydrate the land and reestablishes nutrients- helping indigenous fauna, watering holes for animals. Where drought kills the land, beavers make it spring back to life. The best thing humans can do is let the wildlife do what it does best- go wild.
Especially given how essential the beaver was for so long to the land Canada now sits on. One would think that the reintroduction of more beavers would help block up the areas that need blocking and get the areas that need freeing done. They're BRILLIANT land architects. <3
I wonder if the peatlands would benefit from relocation of beavers? Down here, we've been trying a new solution for our more arid or backed up waterways. Relocated beavers that cant stay at their current location to help the area- Its been SUPER beneficial and the whole area has been getting better.
It's been 18 years... I'm still processing and working on it. Doesn't help that it isn't one and done. New symptoms, new medical Dxs that pop up make things worse. As soon as you get your head above the water, there's the next wave pushing you down.

This isn’t just some poor hiring trend—it’s a form of #Exclusion. Not everyone can or should be expected to perform ten different jobs under one title. And until that changes, the workforce will continue to leave very valuable people behind and grow this idea that some people are less then. 5/5
For the past few years, I’ve searched for that kind of manageable, task-specific work. But increasingly, those roles are gone—replaced by multi-role positions with little accommodation and too many expectations for the hours provided. 4/5
There was a time when entry-level office jobs—like filing clerks or administrative assistants—provided essential, focused support that helped organizations function efficiently. These roles allowed individuals to contribute meaningfully without being expected to wear five hats at once. 3/5
This shift doesn’t just impact those of us with physical disabilities who struggle with fast-paced multitasking. It also creates #WorkplaceBarriers for people with cognitive or intellectual #Disabilities who thrive in structured roles but are overwhelmed by constantly shifting tasks. 2/5
I often wonder if clearly defined, singular job roles even exist anymore. More and more, job postings bundle multiple distinct responsibilities into one position—typically to reduce staffing costs, even if it results in unrealistic workload expectations. 1/5
It was never about immigration.
I’m dealing with multiple severe chronic illnesses, including serious heart issues and frequent fainting/loss of consciousness.
Yet most days I feel like supply chain issues will be what kills me.
It’s terrifying to rely on medications & medical supplies during these uncertain times.
It's like my brain is done carrying all my trauma - it's giving up and I'm dealing with the fallout. I'm not Supergirl or Wonder Woman. I'm just a person trying to exist and do the right thing along the way.
Writing this Kanien’kéha book has become a huge dream of mine... but i hit that wall above. The Kanien'kéha community keeps me going, just barely some days. I push through as best as possible. I get as much as I can done in a day, even if it's just fixing a page of accent marks.
It doesn't help that I really need a home care worker at this point. I cant remember to take the meds that make me better. And the simplest things are impossible. And so, I go from normal to super low. Then back up. It makes work seem impossible- even things I adore and feel so passionate about.
Functional depression. That's what they call it. Except it's barely functional. I'm barely functional. I guess I'm on the "there's no point" phase. My depression is a vicious cycle that lingers enough to give hope then rip it away. I don't get cured. I have remission and then reoccurrence. ♻️
