Good Trouble and Righteous Fights

Can I get some health~ma this week? As far as I know there's nothing wrong with me, but I have my regular screening mammogram Monday and a screening colonoscopy Friday (something I've had to have every few years since I was 35 or so thanks to having a brother and a cousin who had colon cancer in their 40's, plus my dad in his early 60's). At the time scheduling them the same week seemed like a great plan--get all the squishing and prodding out of the way at once--but now that it's actually here my inner worrywart is spinning worst-case scenarios like crazy.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

I usually do not like bandage colored dresses, but on Viola it looks good. And the natural hair is fantastic: [link]

With her coloring it looks striking and elegant. Whereas with JLo's coloring it makes her look as if she's naked and halfway through transforming into one of the Great Race of Yith.

I can only imagine that Cumberbatch is thinking "I did it first, you twat, give me that statue."

Poor, poor Cumberbatch: his acting talent was unequal to the task of putting a believable smile on his face when Redmayne's name was called.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

At home, it's only working for me late at night. It loads fine at work, so I'm wondering if there are local telecom shenanigans slowing down the speed during peak viewing hours.

Yeah, I was wondering if AT&T was messing with Hulu since only Hulu was a problem on both my computer and Roku. Bastards.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!

The ~ma is with you, Susan.

WTF was up with the remark Sean Penn made when he was giving out the Best Film award?!

Agreed. It suggested an in-joke, but how bloody tasteless. Not to mention his overdone pause before announcing the winner. Blergh.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Good results~ma, Susan.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Splurged on Starbucks for breakfast - this Tiramisu Latte is not half bad. Actually reminds me of tiramisu.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Here's a little lesson I learned about having a public Instagram account (where anyone can see my photos, especially if they search on a hashtag*): a photo of your foot, even (especially?) one of your husband wrapping an ACE bandage around your sprained ankle, WILL get some creepy comments. I took the photo down. Sheesh.

*(Oddly, no one has searched on the #thisisnothowSteveRogersremembersChristmas hashtag I made for the picture of the Captain America Xmas stocking I saw in Meijer.)

It is my day off. The kids finally went to school, after a week off! I have a zillion things to do and I am so whiny and blah and don' wanna.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I am still trying to convince myself that I can overcome my don't wanna.

Not sure I can.
