Partner came over for a bit. When they were leaving, I carried Oscar to the bedroom window and then to the living room window so we could watch Partner walk to their car. I think Oscar appreciated the extra time to grieve the goodbye of the Partner.

The weather should be absolutely lovely today and I WILL be leaving my apartment to take advantage. Idk what I'll do yet, but definitely Things! And my cats can get window time today!
Twin Cities: where do y'all buy really good dark chocolate fudge?
Happy Last Day, y'all. Maybe unplug your smart devices before you go to bed, just in case Bradbury was *that* prophetic 76 years ago.
John Heaton (not the World War II veteran)@jheaton416.bsky.social · yesterdayHere's a link to the story, for those who can't parse images. short-stories.co/@raybradbury...
even if Partner and I lived together or close together, we couldn't share stuff like this, in part because they're a foot taller than me. problematic height gap strikes again
prim@primordial.bsky.social · yesterdaybought a rollator walker about it. really hoping it helps. (I could see it being useful even for stuff like taking out the trash or doing laundry but idk)

prim@primordial.bsky.social · 3d agoliterally in this much pain bc I had the audacity to go do my own grocery shopping on Friday rather than getting it delivered. so that's a whole chronic pain upgrade--inability to manage basic tasks
I had a sort of girlfriend from Australia that I played a lot of Minecraft with. She was such a bleeding heart sweetie that when she started, she'd get sad about killing cows and tried not to. But later, SHE was the one to build the iron golem torture factory. She planted every poppy they dropped.
prim@primordial.bsky.social · 2d agoI'm trying so hard to avoid the iron golem torture factory. it's just. the hoppers. so many hoppers. 😞
depressed as fuck. wanna go play more Minecraft and ruin my sleep schedule about it. or get drunk. or both. but will probably do neither.
Coffee preferably 1, but more often 3-4 because I'm too impatient to wait for it to cool. (I did have black coffee today though 💙) Toast 3-4. Steak preferably 2, but 1-3 are good and 4 is fine.

I went exploring again yesterday; immediately found a shipwreck; drowned four times; and lost half my iron armor. So after spelunking for iron and getting armor back, I went exploring again today to look for cactus, cocoa, and melons.
prim@primordial.bsky.social · 5d agoI finished fixing up this village today and obtained cherry saplings (plus I bought a jungle sapling from the traveling trader guy!) So now that I'm back at MY village, I have my own arboretum with oak, birch, dark oak, spruce, acacia, and jungle trees to the south; a pale oak forest to the west...
love a good "ibuprofen required for me to be able to sleep" kind of night
ALSO I remember liking C3PO as a kid and I was very confused when I realized most people fucking hated him. I am only now realizing why I didn't: 🌟 the autism 🌟
In 2014 (over a decade ago), I realized it had been almost a decade since I'd seen any of the first 6 Star Wars movies. I've since watched Ep 4 about three times, but gave up halfway through Ep 5 TWICE. I finished it tonight, and I have to admit, it's a "good movie."
when I slow blink at Oscar and he slow blinks back I feel like a goddamn king.
PTSD nightmares, night sweats,waking up in maybe worse pain than yesterday (it's real bad). and Partner is 3 hours away, so I can't go show up at their place and say "it's ok, keep sleeping, I'll just be cuddling you now" I do not want today to exist and/or do not want to exist today.
update: Partner, at their parents' cabin, is chilling on the front porch watching a nearby deer. I wanna be chilling on a porch watching a deer
Because there is ~drama~ between myself and Partner's parents, he tries not to bring me up around them--mostly because it makes his mom anxious. He's staying at their cabin this weekend and snuck out to his car, but did not tell them it was to get some time to talk to me. So illicit 🤭
listen. I get it. you finally get back from war and there are all these dudes in your house trying to bang your wife, so you gotta do something clever to get them outta there. so you're in disguise. but then your dog recognizes you. I don't give a FUCK, I am telling him he's a good boy IMMEDIATELY
love knowing this is at least partly true but my parents made me get tendon surgery when I was 10 because other parents kept pointing out I walked and ran on tiptoe and they couldn't bear the ridicule
Tressie McMillan Cottom@tressiemcphd.bsky.social · 4d agoI’m not a doctor. I know nothing. Also? Most of the other problems are because of your feet. Your neck hurt? Your feet. Your hip hikes? It’s your feet. Your shoulder pulls? Your feet. Your jaw pops. Yep, it’s your feet. Maybe. Allegedly.

prim@primordial.bsky.social · 6d agoThe problem with Minecraft today was that I went exploring; saw Spruce trees in the distance; obtained Spruce saplings, but then saw cherry trees in the distance; walked towards the cherry trees but then happened upon a village with a house ON FIRE?; and then it was 10 hours later
PS I totally did get groceries. Wore a tank top. Soaked up the rain both physically and spiritually. 🥰 Yay for leaving my home for the first time in almost 4 weeks!!
prim@primordial.bsky.social · 5d agoyay rain 🥰 I might go get groceries today now that it's cool enough. I don't actually have a rain jacket but I don't think I care today
Watching Star Wars Ep 5 with my evening. I would live-post about it but I'm 45 minutes in and nothing has fucking happened.
I know I've seen a couple of threads on here where people break down the issues with The Body Keeps the Score, but I can't find them currently. Anyone have a thread like that handy?
