Hey ADHD people in the US if you are making any dish that requires/would benefit from "make ahead" prep, do it right now.
Make that pie dough, chop those veggies, defrost that bird, or whatever it is
Bonus tip: write what the next step is on a post it and stick it to whatever it is you're prepping
Bonus bonus tip: tomorrow stick a post it with (re)heating instructions on the finished dish, especially if taking it somewhere
YOU’RE TOO LATE SPIDERMAN! YOU’LL NEVER GET YOUR TURKEY DEFROSTED IN TIME! THANKSGIVING IS DONE FOR! NYEHEHEHEHE
the difference between the significance of report backs for the "block the boat but we didnt actually block it" and that we must support the Merrimack 3 and fight for their release is one of these was direct action that faces jail time
dont love the facts abt the funding, but supporting those involved does not mean an uncritical endorsement of their politics or their financiers. but an instance in which to invoke "careful w/ public critique" approach is when actionists get arrested for hitting weapons factories
organize to successfully pull off actual direct actions without false advertising / misleading framing on social media, actually disrupt the manufacturers, shipping lines, consider security and jail support, before making fun of people sincerely trying to stop things.
its been depressing to see so many people on twitter make fun of 3 young people potentially facing decades of jail time who actually had the courage to damage an Elbit Systems factory in the US.
Tevildo, who is as stupid as he is handsome, ate a baby bottle nipple and got it stuck in his small intestine, so now he's in the middle of his 2 week confinement in a room separated from his big sister Rick Astley so he can recover from abdominal surgery.
He's bored in there so I periodically set up my Switch as a little cat TV for him; hard to tell if he enjoys it because whenever I'm in the room he just wants to cuddle.
He has recovered well from his abdominal surgery and been back to his usual self!
...his usual foolish pica-having self. Last night he chomped off the tip of a pacifier, of the same size and shape as the nipple that was stuck in his intestine 🙃
I brought him to the vet ER as soon as I realized last night, they did x-rays and saw it in his stomach but also it was full of food, so now we're back again this morning when the food will have hopefully moved on so it's easier to try to scope the thing out.
I feel horrible I need to protect him better from himself and get my shit together, I'm so overwhelmed and my apartment is such a mess. And like.. I really need to do better than this by the time my baby is mobile in a few months!!
It would help if I actually had my adderall so I could actually fully function but insurance is being a pain about it in a way that has taken me way too long to sort out because of, you know, the whole ADHD thing and also having a baby with special needs
