I was on the Kornacki Cam train last night and had to make a clip. This is the moment when he realized Al-Sayed won the election.
anyway I’m doing a support call with my therapist today even though I’m out of state and will have to pay OOP.
btw this is how I ended up in IOP for 12 weeks 🙃
Sara Something@latetotheparty.bsky.social · 6d agothe funeral before this one involved touching the forehead of another partner who had been dead for a month and sloughing off a thumbprint of skin and brushing her hair until her neck split and embalming fluids started leaking from her neck so it could be worse.

Sara Something@latetotheparty.bsky.social · last wk.okay yep this was my last funeral
partner’s mom wanted a completely secular service and instead got a prayer/bible verse/amazing grace/scripture/prayer. meanwhile, I’m here because I didn’t want to be disrespectful of the dead.
Sara Something@latetotheparty.bsky.social · last wk.okay yep this was my last funeral
context: had to listen to a 15 y/o recording of my partner playing guitar while his ex sand the words to amazing grace while staring at his mother’s urn, while everyone else stared at me. this was adamantly established as a thing that would not happen, but it did.

sometimes you just have to hold your partner and promise to each other that neither of you wants a funeral
Trying to keep my shit together so I can be supportive at the funeral tomorrow but dear god this is stirring shit up.
Facts and Logic.
Josephine "beckbook.com" Riesman@josie.zone · last wk.Wife & I are discussing @raxkingisdead.bsky.social's brilliant essay on The Odyssey, which included her assertion that ancient poetry audiences must have been like modern pro wrestling crowds Which means the poetic bard was both Heel and Face, and neither Ergo, THIS is the best Odyssey adaptation:
My favorite nurse told me that this was her last week of work and I legitimately got so sad that I asked her for a hug at the end of my appointment.
Life is just a long series of remembering that I don’t like mezcal.
Epilepsy Stuff: The Odyssey has a roughly 5-minute scene that absolutely should be disclosed with a photosensitivity warning. It is not. Most theaters do not have signs posted, as the studios did not inform them ahead of release. This is a huge and dangerous oversight.
we’re officially rolling through the “it’s been a year since…” stage of things
yesterday was a big grief day and I’m happy that I have therapy in an hour
life was nothing but cancer and death for 13 months, but now I have THREE trips planned that have nothing to do with either before the end of the year
I started college with the mindset that living with student loan debt for the rest of my life was a worthwhile ticket cost out of the system I was born into. It saved my life. Fuck all of this.
NPR@npr.org · 3w agoIf an undergraduate program's graduates don't earn more than workers who never went to college, that program could be cut off from federal student loans. But is a degree just about making more money?
