And now, I will vent my ire by baking muffins, because I just got 5 pounds of fresh blueberries from Michigan.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

Pokemon Go - I have no interest in going to gyms and competing, I only want to capture and or evolve all the types of pokemon. I only have 34 of the 134. WAH. BUT, I did get new ones this week at gym and at grocery store, so I guess that's something.

So we compete at gyms for two reasons: you get free stuff each day you are holding a gym and you get more XP, which allows you to catch more diverse and difficult to find pokemon.

Seattle had different pokemon than we have here. So there is that. But LA has a huge pokemon diversity, apparently.

I'm oddly more excited about getting stuff at the Pokestops than I am about catching actual Pokemon. I am definitely in the category of Doing It Wrong. (Tim doesn't understand the appeal of Pokemon Go at all, and I described it as Neko Atsume + skeeball.)

Also, my blueberry muffins are really good.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

I feel the need to start competing in gyms just so I can eventually get a decently buff Pokemon at some point, but I definitely prefer just the walking, catching, and evolving aspects.

Also I am seriously burning out on some Bernie friends of mine who are just so deeply caught up in their Clinton hate and I just find it so entitled and smug and self-congratulatory. But I've made a vow with myself to no berate them because it'll only annoy them as much as they are annoying me. But ugh.

You know what? 20 yrs or so later, I'm not over cookiegate. I'm still furious anyone castigated her over that comment. Which was a response to sexist bulkshit.Fuck you and you and you. It's fucking sexism. And it's like I'm reliving the 90s again, just older. I bought 3 target dresses that are identical to gap dresses I wore in 1995. Friday, I wore a silk skirt I've had since1994. What the fucking fuck.

Blueberry muffins sound delicious. Mm.

So, I decided to try the no-longer new legalities of my state, and purchased an edible. I don't want to be Maureen Dowd, cowering because I accidentally ate 18 doses, and I know one of the common....complaints?...is that people don't realize how long it takes for edibles to actually affect you. Everything said 30 min to 2 hours. ....it's been two hours and I feel nothing. Except possibly my ears need to pop.

...more reports in a while, as to whether this was actually a big waste of money (cash money, because they can't take credit cards!)
