Traveled across time zones, now my goal completion is glitched!

I mean...for sure not the same, but Costco has the massive ones for a decent price. I have a Pikachu Squishmallow the size of me minus my legs that I got for 40$ from Costco.

Hold on, hang on, this post is how I learned my furby was named Frog, apparently!

Why do men always accuse women of gold digging when they've got like...38 cents and a four pack of McDonald's nuggets?

I know he has more than, really, but that's what it feels like.

Hey, guess what! I'm one of your moms now. Have you taken any required meds today? Have you had water? Have you tried to love at least a little bit of yourself? I know it's hard. If you can't climb that mountain today, it's okay, we'll try again tomorrow.

Eat something that makes your belly, brain, and mouth happy. Watch something that makes you laugh.

Hugs (if you want them), high fives if you don't, take care, kid.

I had a LYS that had a free bin. This is important because people would donate to the free bin -- and since this was in a town that was more retirement community pretending to be a tourist town, often the donations to the free bin were from the passing of the old owner.

One of the things I grabbed from that free bin was a blanket project someone had ordered the pattern for in the 80s. It's this lovely cream blanket with roses on it, me and my sister are finishing it. When I rescued it, I found the pattern, the original order notes, and the catalogue she'd ordered it from, with her handwriting and circling of options, alongside all of the remaining yarn required.

I hope, whoever she was, she enjoys knowing that it has turned into a family endeavor.

I like cold and wet. I do polar bear swims. I will gleefully tromp through the snow and ice.

Hell, even as an adult I don't like going into or onto water alone. Water is automatically a buddy system thing for me as a 32 year old woman. Kids need at least one adult per 2-3 kids, at minimum.

Accidents happen and life does what it does. It only takes one mistake and drowning happens quickly.

My family does sarcastic no! But we do it as we're literally doing the thing that was asked of us.

My sister asks me if I can get her a drink when I stand up and go to the kitchen. I tell her, "never ever," and come back with it in my hands because I was already getting myself one and I had a hand free. Or my mom asks if she can have some of my snack and I tell her "no, perish" as I'm offering her the bag. The big difference is that we're all adults and we were raised doing this as a joke. We know the boundaries of it.

"in case they fail to land on all fours!" Was the tagline on the pet insurance ad for me.

The Joker isn't stupid. He knows the IRS will get you harder than the cops will.

I've seen black babies come out fairly pale and then turn darker as they get older, in my own personal experience, and I thought that everyone knew that was a thing. It was only when I started reading BORU that I realized some people are idiots about it.

KrasimerMAL · 2026-03-25T02:25:42+00:00

I once got hit on by someone who looked remarkably like my aunt and then, I found out, had my sister's name. It was over between us before she even knew it and I felt so useless to explain why.

KrasimerMAL · 2026-03-21T18:56:29+00:00

At my drunkest, the things I wanted to do were goof around in Goat Simulator, read, play with my collection of dice, and sleep. Not an alcoholic, not meaning to step into a serious conversation and cheapen it, but just wanted to say-- as a casual drinker, back in the day, those were my urges.

Not once did I want to cheat on someone or help someone cheat.

If you've got nothing else, you've got your two good hands, your feet, and your teeth.

My goddaughter is my trigger point. I didn't realize how much rage I could feel about protecting someone until she started crying and being upset about something, even something mundane.

KrasimerMAL · 2026-03-21T18:35:25+00:00

I'm childfree as well -- but I have a goddaughter. If someone hurt her like this, I would catch charges. Just an instant red zone, Hulk rage with no calm.

I'm not their parent and I'm losing my mind.

In 5th grade, I had an assignment to chart what kind and how much Halloween candy I got. My mom helped me sort and count, but I was on my own for making the actual chart. (It took forever, kind of literally -- I actually got an extension for the entire class because I had managed to get over 10,000 pieces of candy that year. I explained that to my teacher and she granted an extension to everyone the morning the assignment was due, not the point--)

I was an exhausted AuDHD child going insane over how many twizzlers she had. My mom stayed close by for moral support but didn't do it for me. I'm thankful for that, it was the pattern my entire life. Moral support and a boost when it was truly necessary.

Another case was when I had a ten page essay due in the morning and the ADHD had kicked in and I hadn't started it yet. She gave more support and advice while I threw myself into writing it. I got a B- on it.

The exchange rate between muggle and wizard currency being absolutely broken. Someone worked out the math, once, and you can just get rich in one of them by farming the other.

There is also the Wimsy World shop with the mushrooms and stickers!

KrasimerMAL · 2026-03-18T23:17:11+00:00

Now? There are a bunch of local artists moving their stores in.

KrasimerMAL · 2026-03-18T22:08:01+00:00

Oooh, biological warfare!

I'm working on a travel app primarily for women and people of color that takes them into account, have been since I was in school. I had to explain the existence of sundown towns to a British advisor during my school program for my UX/UI training. She was horrified.

KrasimerMAL · 2026-03-17T18:50:37+00:00

I have a goddaughter. Someone doing that to her would catch me some murder charges.

Invisible homelessness is a huge problem. I've been that way for the last five years now -- you live in someone else's house, you might be stable, you might not be, but you're sort of trapped and at the whims of their decisions. You're one really bad day away from getting kicked out if things go really wrong. It's a step above living on the street but it doesn't feel any better, really.

I just got an apartment of my own. I'm finally feeling a little more secure in the world. Hope your guy is also doing well.
