I love that my kids think that I'm smarter than my husband. I'm not, we're fairly equally educated with our areas of expertise overlapping in quite a few places. I just answer faster than he does so I'm usually the one answering questions. Except today.
I wish I had a family
My habit of thinking through some discourse cycle and landing on “eh I don’t think this is worth getting all pissed off over” is, ironically, the thing that most reliably gets people pissed off at me

The model is less sure these belong here, so they sit outside the ranking.
it's about 0430 here and i hunger for fufu thanks to a conversation i had on the #Fediverse ... would try to make it myself, but the last time i tried, i was informed i insulted my wife's side of the family's culture. they were dead serious, so i don't do "surprises" any more.
Thankfully, I have zero meetings today and just little tinkery tasks to do. Most important thing is to go for a walk. Can't tell you how much I miss going to the gym 😢
Well, the car is definitely not fixable by me. The frame is bent. So now I have to do the insurance, get it fixed, trade it in, and get a new one. If only a tree would fall on it tonight.
Dope T-shirt received 👌✅🍾 Ended up in the letterbox of my neighbours, which are quite nice :) Now digging the internets and rediscovering my old yt playlists... Blasting UK garage on the floor, now my neighbours must somehow hate me... Or do they enjoy UKG ? We'll see I guess, if they knock at the door I'll invite them ^^ #ukg #UKGarage #4tothefloor
MrsD, heading into another clothes shop: "I won't be a minute". Me thinking, that's true, you won't! 😉
i was like "why am i so fucking irritable today" while i was at the shops and then i was like "oh i need to buy coffee because we ran out yesterday OHHHHHHHH"
Some times the back and forth between half deaf, and senile elderly, can be tedious as heck to endure. Worse, I hope I never get to that point.
Forgetting to put water in the coffee machine is the number 1 sign I need more coffee. 🤦
It's my birthday year.
I'm tempted to put an 'Out-Of-Office' on my emails for the next two weeks. But something is telling me I will need the distraction. Did I mention we have a museum show opening in Montreal next month. If this is me managing my nervous system then I should probably just go walk it off.
Oh my god I forgot at the gay bar last night I was peeing, which can take a hot sec bc I get pee shy, and the guy to my right looked at me and shouted “FOCUS… FOCUS” like I will light the dynamite right now and take us all down
Just your average Sunday afternoon here, drinking fancy tea and watching sea animal videos with the kiddo.
gay yearning as i am once again alone
I've lived in my current neighborhood before, and last week I rejoined the council-run gym. I was doing squats today when a staff member approached me. "Have you been away for a while? I haven't seen you here for a bit" Reader, the last time i was there was 2013.
Interviewer: Can you explain this gap in your CV? Barrister: No, that would be an admission against interest.
hey chat what if i suddenly changed my name huh 'cause like i've changed everything else already and with that i've severed any connection to "Northy" as a name, proooobably for the better as that name has links to uh, you know, an arms manufacturer. there was a time i saw that as a plus, not now.
I know good internet advice is never post your Ls online, but the temptation to write a blog post about how 2026 has been the most challenging year to date of my career / my employability / my late-capitalism compatibility is calling me like a fucking siren.
i don't have much stuff but i like looking at bags 💔 looking at 2 really cute ones rn
I always check my work calendar on Sunday nights to make sure I don't have to wake up early for a meeting, I just noticed that a proposal that was due tomorrow was due first thing in the morning (which should be illegal) so I wrote it up real quick and sent it and then noticed a typo
My social battery has been drained. Hubby took us out to eat for dinner, at a pub no less (neither of us drink alcohol) and let me tell you, sitting there surrounded by people downing alcohol while we waited for our extremely mediocre food was not a fun experience.
updating to say fuck it, I'm staying in
sorry to rant abt my irl but what is up with families who will not listen to your requests. why do i, someone who they have known for 22 almost 23 years, have to BEG for them to not tell the waiters its my birthday. genuinely ruined dinner for me lol
Slept for 12 hours and needed it.
Had a comfort food lunch and conked out into a cozy food coma during the worst of today's heat. All in all, a pretty solid day off I think and maybe progress in trying to 'untrain' my constant productivity drive? This owl doesn't really know the meaning of relax very well.
Thinking about my vibes and I must admit I'm quite compelled towards the following I want to be pretty, I want to be warm and kind. I want to give off the vibes of a woman you meet in the mountains that guides you through the piercing snow, and when you turn around after saying thanks, she's gone
Sometimes I wish I had a fireplace I could just lay in front of as if I were a firelizard laying under/in front of a heat lamp. I may run hot most of the time but sometimes that infrared heat feels really damn good despite my internal temperature at the time.
