Yup, I specifically use y'all and recommend it to people (like my parents) to replace gendered phrases, and I'm not from the y'all zone.

Still up for debate, "dude" and "hun/hon".

*I'm a trans woman also

Guldens Spicy Brown Mustard. Dad was from Brooklyn and loved it, as I kid I just wanted the neon yellow stuff all my friends had. Now, many years later, I always have it in my fridge.

I love and live by this quote at the end of Paris is Burning. by Dorian Corey, one of the founding Mothers of ballroom.

It's a 1 min clip worth hearing her say it, but for those who can't watch:

Everybody wants to make an impression, some mark upon the world. And then you think, you left a mark on the world if you just get through it and a few people remember your name. You don't have to bend the whole world. I think it's better just to enjoy it. Pay your dues, and just enjoy it. If you shoot an arrow and it goes real high, hooray for you.

If we combined Montana, Nebraska, Wyoming, and both Dakotas into one mega state, they'd have about the population of South Carolina.

But somehow they get 17 electoral votes to SCs 9 and 10 senators to California's 2.

So I vote for Monomskakota!

I shit you not, Wendy's in my area is currently promoting a "Krabby Patty Kollab" burger.

So Boar's Head, then BrucePac (who make meat for Costco, Trader Joes, Amazon products), and now McDs.

Fun story, the recent meat recall (the second one) affected some salads I bought early September.. we got an email long after we'd eaten them letting us know, and to call "this number" if you'd like a refund.

Sorry, I lied, it wasn't a fun story.

That what ultimately ends my time here, will be my own fault.

And spiders... Fuck spiders.

Headline is 4 words (and a "'s") too long.
