Hot baths are saving me.  And, this may sound bonkers, but sweeping the floor always makes me feel like there is at least one thing right in the world :)

Excellent tip about the brand-name vs generic Wellbutrin. I did have Trazodone prescribed at one point for back pain, and like you, I did not feel it at all. Nada. No help with pain relief, sleep, anything. Melatonin is hit or miss for me, and CBD/THC—I just can’t go there. The tiniest presence of THC pushes my brain…

Not according to my doctors. I asked specifically at my last physical. Someone said to also look at when your mom went through it and apparently she was almost 60, so I’ve got a ways to go if that’s a real basis to judge by...

Exercise is a pipe dream right now unfortunately.  I know I need to get back to my 3x a week pre-Covid routine, but I just can’t manage it as a single mom right now.  All my free time goes to chores and childcare.  I know it would help.  I know.  I know.  

THANK YOU!  Will stay AWAY from Lexapro lol and try the Calm app :)

Thank you :)

Okay, good to know about the dosage and the amount of time it takes to kick in.  Thank you!

Thank you.

Hey internet friends. I can’t wait for SNS so I’m going to post this here, been refreshing nonstop to see when DirtBag was gonna run so thanks to Justice and apologies for the hijack. I have an appt with my doctor to talk about anti-anxiety medication and need advice. Basically I am just anxious all the time: wake…

Thank you for the link!  And for the Target Mossimos :)))

Except for the inevitable (and gross) redemption arc, I wouldn’t mind seeing Lori Loughlin join the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. I feel like she’d fit right in.  I was hoping for pictures of their home on that US Weekly link but they’re not there so don’t bother folks...

I saw that picture of Vanessa Hudgens before I saw her name and thought to myself hm that must be a RHONJ...in my defense, I am watching The Sopranos these days so I have New Jersey mob wives on the brain...

Goddamn I was just gonna go to Instagram and gawk at it too!

They all have makeup and clothing lines. Kim has shapewear, even Rob had that stupid sock gig. The TV show is just advertising for their lifestyles to sell the products.  Yesterday’s dirtbag was all about how Kim is now valued as a billionaire while Kylie just slipped from billionaire status. I wonder who the fuck…

Yeah, I get that.  I am not binge-ing the show, I just watch every Sunday night when the next one shows up on HBO, and once a week is enough for me.  It is grueling to watch.  I’m still watching, because I respect the creator and want to support the work, but it’s not easy...

Harron is a trans woman. Here’s a good article she wrote a few years back, worth a read, describing the daily things she and other trans/queer people have to do to avoid violence.

Shout out to John Cage!!!

I second all these critiques.  Don’t bother.  Was not scary, really dragged, failed to establish any reason to care about any of the characters.  Visually beautiful.  Not much else.  Big bummer because it’s also way too long.  I want that time back.

Thanks Harron.  I watched (and loved) Salacia a couple days ago.  I’m so glad to see it getting coverage here. 

Check out my reply to ItsSmallerOnTheOutside below about beaches. Very helpful podcast about assessing the risks of Covid-19 here.
