gender-complicated communist country-bumpkin, cat masseuse, and nature picture-taker no AI ever! long-covid haver! Canadian subsp. Albertan! i've got a BA in English!

guess what your ol' pal Marshwort tested positive for on the allergy test i had today? if you guessed "cockroaches" well then a winner is you! i'm so nonplussed, there's no roaches at my place and i've never lived anywhere where there was roaches, so what the fuck?

my forearm covered in numbers cuz i was undergoing an allergy test

me yesterday: everything is pointless, everyone hates me, death beckons me towards the grave with cold and crook'd finger also me yesterday: oh fuck, did i forget to change my estradiol patches for like almost a week? did i also forget to eat? i am the unreliable narrator in my own life story 😑

2016: i'm poor, sad, living in a house with a rotting roof and broken plumbing that i can't afford to repair, taking care of my helpless family 2026: i am poor, long-covidy, living in a mobile home with a rotting roof and no running water, taking care of my helpless family i just want a shower 😭

ugh i think i might have got the kind of progesterone that makes you depressed and not the kind that gives you big boobs and a functioning libido-- fucking wait a minute, when did i last change my estradiol patches, is that why i feel like this, fucking GODDAMNIT okay disregard this and prior skeet

being at KDays today really reinforces i'm too old, autistic, and hard-of-hearing to go to carnivals anymore 😭 The Beaches are cool, though also there's some joke here about Miles "Tails" Prower being hung upside down like Mussolini but i-- i can't, it's too loud here, and i'm grumpy/hungry ☹️

"Tell me where are you driving Midnight cruiser Where is your bounty Of fortune and fame I am another Gentlemen loser Drive me to Harlem Or somewhere the same." if this keeps up i'm going to have to drill a hole in my head, i've been infected with the Steely Dan mind virus 🤯

i took my first dose of progesterone last night (what what, up tha butt) and lay in bed falling asleep listening to Steely Dan's "Can't Buy A Thrill" because i wanted to know why everyone seems to love that classic rock bullshit, and boy oh boy apparently that combo makes for some Intense Dreams 😳

there's more mosquitoes in the outside air right now than there are atoms of oxygen, i'm dying' 😮‍💨 in more positive news i finally remembered to ask my Endo for progesterone! i guess the coin-flip of fate will determine if i turn into a horny boob monster or a weepy lump, no half-measures for me!
