#Inktober2025 Day 24: Rowdy

@MistressCaution I’ve nicknamed my internal monologue “Travis” so in moments like that I can tell Travis to shut the fuck up because no one likes him

Me when someone else makes a mistake: Listen to me. You are amazing. You are beyond wonderful. It's ok. It was barely even a mistake. You are made of stardust and I love you.

Me when I make a mistake: You absolute piece of filth, you are garbage. You are the single worst human on the planet.

Still a work in progress I guess 🤷♀️

Was trying to describe a breakfast/lunch combo and forgot the word "brunch" and said "blunchfast" and honestly I like my word better

Telehealth Certification Institute: Updates to the APA Telehealth Guidelines

Guess who's doing another course with the Telehealth Certification Institute! It's me! I am going to be transparent: I really struggle with marketing my courses because I am not sure how to make these topics sound catchy in a blog post. I have been repeatedly told that I am a good speaker and make even the blandest topics at least a little bit entertaining, but I struggle to translate that…

Wow Barack Obama wants to help me improve my website’s SEO! Thanks, Obama!

Computer: I need updates.
Me: Can you do it when I’m done working?
C: Sure!

Next morning

C: I need updates.
M: Why didn’t you do them last night?
C: Fuck you. Updates.
M: Ok I have a task but then I have a break. Can you update while I’m running this errand?
C: Absolutely.

After the errand

M: Ok, ready to work?
C: You absolute fool

#Inktober2025 Day One

@hellomiakoda I love that though!

I had a dream I was getting the mail and realized I was naked. But then I realized I only accidentally go outside in dreams, which means I’m dreaming and can do whatever I want! So I was trying to decide if I wanted to fly and where I wanted to go, but everything faded to black and I woke up. Total lucid dream ripoff.

Quick while the government is shut down let’s all implement universal healthcare and free meals for school children

If anyone happens to have invented time travel I have a request to hop back about 20 minutes ago please

So I've been getting a lot of spam calls today, so when one popped up I was like screw it, let's mess with them. So I answered, went "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH," and hung up. Then I got a text that said "Are you okay? Do you need me to call for help?" And that's how I learned I didn't have that person's number saved in my phone. 😭

So I guess that's what I'll be thinking about every time I'm falling asleep for the next 30 years.

Nobody Asked Me: The Marriage May Also Be Down The Toilet

Welcome back to Nobody Asked Me, my favorite kind of blog post because I get to insert my opinion when no one wanted it. Today we are responding to a letter sent to Care and Feeding at Slate Magazine. As always, I have no comment on the original columnist's response and am simply giving my own answer. Content Warning:

Reasons why Armani (cat) has asked me for help today:

1. The faucet is not dripping and he wants to drink from it (he has 4 water bowls around the house that are cleaned twice a day)
2. The faucet is dripping but not as fast as he wants it to
3. Now the faucet is dripping too fast
4. The faucet is dripping at the right speed, but he wants to drink out of a different faucet now

@hellomiakoda If I understand correctly, Amish parents don't really take their kids to psychologists so...how would we know if they have autistic kids? They probably do and just haven't been assessed. "Of all the kids we didn't test, none of them are diagnosed with autism" YOU DON'T SAY

Rapture question!

What if someone's pregnant, but they aren't worthy of rapture? Because I thought this group is pro the unborn and sees babies as innocent. Does mom get in as the baby's plus one? Is everybody pregnant going to go into labor and the babies immediately float upwards? Do their bellies float upwards but the rest of them dangles behind?

I can't stop thinking about this.

Hey if you're a therapist who thinks you might get raptured this week make sure any clients who get left behind are covered by taking my CE course on professional wills https://payhip.com/b/o35Ql

Ok I found a guy who's like "Hey when all the Evangelicals leave on Tuesday let's reinstate Roe V Wade and pass protections for the LGBTQ+ community" I love this optimism

Lots of people in the rapture Tik Tok comments saying "Actually the rapture happens AFTER the tribulations, not before, so the rapture can't happen yet" friend you truly don't think the last five years have been tribulations??

I am deep in the rabbit hole. I guess today I'm a bible scholar 🤣

Editing to make sure it's clear that I'm not saying the rapture is going to happen, just that that specific counter-argument does not hold up IMO
