15 thoughts I had while getting a massage recently

I knew I was going to have a tough day over the past weekend, so I indulged and booked myself a massage for the following day. However, as you'll see from reading, it was not the best experience. I am fully aware that complaining about a massage is a whiny thing to do, but I wanted to get the thoughts that were swirling through my head onto a (digital) page. I am too in my head My inner legs are more sensitive than I thought I might be a tad touch-starved (touch-hungry?) My body kind of recoils from touch though I did not know that muscle could flinch like that (or even that that was a muscle) While I do mostly want quiet during a massage, I was a little perturbed that she worked on my chest (over the blanket) without giving me a heads up (I have never had a masseuse touch there before) I thought the masseuse said this oil was "lemon grass," but I did have my headphones in when she was listing the possible scents and I think it was just "lemon" Does the masseuse...

Working on my cryptid novel idea, part 1

Okay, I've finally started writing the novel that I did some stream of consciousness posts about ( "Stream of consciousness about a novel idea I have, part 1" ,  "Stream of consciousness about a novel idea I have, part 2" , and "Stream of consciousness about a novel idea I have, part 3" ). Now, I want to keep it unpublished, but I also want credit for working on it (lol). So, with that in mind, I'll do a post like this when I've worked on it for a bit, and you can shoot me a message if you'd like access to the Google doc. NB: While there will be multiple posts in this vein, I will not link them to each other because the text will remain the same, so linking to part 1 from part 2 won't yield any new information.  (Prompt by me) Photo by Bernd 📷 Dittrich on Unsplash

Thoughts on 90 Day Fiancé: The Single Life season 5, episode 2

Not sure what's happening this episode as we only got a season preview at the end of the last episode.  God, Pedro is so hot (I maintain that Pedro and Chantel were one of the hottest couples combined within the franchise) I love Julia being supportive Oof it's so sad that Pedro is the first guy to buy Sophie flowers Oof, I do feel bad for Jamal finding all of this out so late and so quickly (Wait, Jamal found out about his sister when he was 12? It is confusing that he found out about her as a kid, but not about Larry until he was much older) Yikes, I was expecting the daughter to have been placed for adoption BEFORE Larry and to be with a different father Ah yeah, Jamal makes a good point that Kim has put Jamal in a tough spot as he tries to build a bond with Larry Yeah, Cortney, your parents are good roommates for you because they probably pay for everything and you do not have the ability to read people well Cortney's deflecting laugh was hilariously tiny horse-like Col...

Thoughts on 90 Day Fiancé: Before the 90 Days season 8, episode 10

Time to talk about other women? Also, I hated waiting a week for this episode because of the "Big Game". Are the producers going to reveal to Ziad that Emma outed that they had sex? Emma, I don't agree with Ziad on much, but I am willing to bet that you picked the wrong shoes for the desert Emma, how do you not know that a camel spitting or knocking you off is a much more likely scenario? Forrest, I hate agreeing with your mother, but how did you think that meeting of families went well? Sheena, I want to believe you, but things seem off Oof, Laura, I can see why you have trust issues Daniel...pretty sure you've confessed to AT LEAST knowing this other woman I think I know what Jovon meant, but he did say that Anna was using closest for clothes she isn't wearing and like...yeah...you wear the clothes you're wearing and store the rest (often in a closet) Jovon, Anna wants you to do other things to be romantic Did Sheena say cow bath? Okay, like, Aviva, Stig is ...

15 reasons the SAVE Act (H.R.22) is dangerous

I cannot stress enough how dangerous the SAVE Act (H.R.22) is. Much of this information is taken from the Center for American Progress's "The SAVE Act: Overview and Facts," which, at the time of me typing this, was last updated on Feb 3, 2026 as well as the Center for American Progress's "The SAVE Act Could Keep Millions of Transgender Americans From Voting," which was published in February of 2025. Want to call your senators? Find their phone numbers by selecting your state on the "Contacting U.S. Senators" page . Want to email your senators? When you select your state on the  "Contacting U.S. Senators" page , a clickable "Contact" link should pop up under each senator and that, in turn, should lead you to the senators' online contact forms. Want to fax your senators? Yes, this does sound silly to most, but faxes are difficult to ignore and the inbox is never full. You can find your senators' fax numbers and send u...
