The culprit (she refuses to allow me to pet her unless she’s grooming me back)

I want my cat to love me just as much but stop licking me.

A heads up: I post more on Dreamwidth than I do on here due to ability to curate my audience. I'm the same name on DW--if you have an account and aren't following me, please consider it!

I believe Ursula Le Guin and Tanith Lee may qualify, but mostly because they're a) dead and b) didn't attend cons very much.

This year I’m going to be kinder, more positive, work harder, and put more faith in myself until the very first minor obstacle throws me off for the next 350+ days

Daisy decided to wake me up this morning by sitting on my chest and breathing into my mouth. It was incredibly creepy

honestly, omit the almonds and sprinkle with parmesan instead. The important part is the garlic + parboiling and blanching in ice water.

Haricots Verts Amandine (French-Style Green Beans With Almonds) Recipe Haricots verts amandineβ€”the classic French dish of green beans with almondsβ€”is an easy, crowd-pleasing side. But the difference between mediocre and great is a matter of technique.

Ah. My tests are generally thyroid/liver so I don’t have to fast.

3. When you get there, say β€œI am a difficult bleed. My veins are tiny, deeply buried, and roll and collapse. Please get the person who handles cases like this, and try a butterfly β€œ
(I point out the 1 accessible vein I have and then say if they can’t get it, the next option is between the knuckles)

Oh! I can answer this!
1. Hydration. Start 48 hours before and drink at least three litres a day. Try and space it out as much as you can.
2. Do a weights workout immediately before.

Using my face seemed far less intrusive than using my credit card OR MY ID, WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK?!?

The other thing my GP recommended is 5g (a teaspoon) of creatine daily, provided you're having regular UEC monitoring. It's really made a difference to me, and it's a supplement you can just buy, so provided you don't have kidney problems, give it a go!

But largely this is about books I personally dislike (fourth wing, SJM’s ouevre etc.) but see panned, and it’s like: I think you are feeling disdain as a way to make yourself feel superior and THAT is largely misogyny

Oh, it’s not to my taste, especially when the characters start speaking in all caps (there are further structural problems with the world-building: you can’t start a series of with Dahl-esque ridiculousness and then introduce serious concepts later without having issues). A lot of ppl like it tho
