today

[tielan]

I have emptied my mooncup 4x since 6am this morning. I have taken not one period painkiller, but two. Twice. My uterus is absolutely trying to rip its way out of my abdomen. And the cramps are manageable but just barely.

I give up. No more work is getting done today. I'm going to curl up in a little ball and wibble.

Also I am of the opinion that "undecided" is merely code for "we have a candidate to vote for, but we don't want to feel guilty about it" like voting is supposed to make you feel like shiny happy people, instead of it being a responsibility that normalises the concept of democracy.

Americans. Some of you need a right good whack in the arse with a clue-by-four studded with rusty nails.

Okay, so it has been a busy week and now, as usual I am afraid, I’m late to the party, so I trust you are feeling better and if you aren’t, I glare very, very balefully at your misbehaving uterus.

Undecided, in America these days? I read that such folks exist, but given that the current POTUS puts the P in polarizing and polishes it to an incandescent glow, I really wonder what kind of odd birds they must be. I’m afraid I’m inclined to see “I’m undecided still” as actually being either “I don’t want to come out publicly as a racist” or as “Imma vote my pocketbook because I make scadzillions [or because I am heavily invested in the stock market] and the rest can all go to Hell in a handbasket, but I don’t want to tell you that.” Even my Libertarian eldest, who chose to write in Sanders in the last cycle because she disliked Hillary so, and who despises Biden, is casting her vote for Biden this time around because she wants to give us a fighting chance to pull out of our death spiral.
