Was awoken with a start around 4:30 this morning because I smelled burning rubber or plastic.

It was only after running around the house in my underwear clutching my yoga pants did I realize there was a thunderstorm happening at that moment, and the petrichor in this part of the desert smells like creosote bush.

Yes, there is a plant here that covers the desert floor that smells like friggin petroleum. Lmao.

It's fine. I went back to sleep after. Hahaha

If you're out here promoting nuclear energy but assume that New Mexico is super cool being your fucking toilet for the waste, you got another think coming.

I will fight you on the beaches, on the landing sites, in the streets, in the hills...

Assholes.

This place only serves to make me angry. I have plenty of that already.

I came across someone saying they were proud of all the protesting they did when they were younger and that’s fine.

Anyway, one of the things they listed was being proud of stopping America from going into nuclear power and let me just share that this attitude and movement set us back pretty far on clean power and it’s good to look into why. 1/2

@TonyStark @RiaResists The major problem I have with nuclear is that MY STATE is where all y'all dump your damned nuclear waste. So until you can figure out what to do with it that DOES NOT INCLUDE USING MY STATE AS YOUR GARBAGE CAN IMMA GO WITH NO.

@TonyStark @RiaResists Don't you dare lecture me. I live on one of the top producing O&G states as well. Everyone treats NM as if we are inconsequential and...like America's garbage can.

We'll just out that nuclear waste in YOUR backyard mKay?

I'm sure it's fine.

Welp. The electricians I have been trying to hire refuse to answer the phone, don't even have a proper voicemail greeting, and apparently refuse to call potential customers back. Gonna have to find someone else.

Fucking hell.

@RickiTarr It is a game I did not sign up to play, and I'm frankly pretty angry.

Scrubbing and sealing grout today. While the previous owners did a more or less competent job with the installation, light gray tile and white grout on the floor in the desert is a fucking nightmare.

I put down my more involved needlework projects while I'm doing heavy work on the house in favor of quick and dirty cotton string grocery bags. Fed up with the ones I can buy, it's much easier for me just to make them. They're mindless, in the round, net bags that I can just unwind with while waiting for sleep. I'm also hoping that if I actually make them, I won't forget them at home. ;)

Yanow, it's really hard not to feel outrage when everything is fucking outrageous.

When we moved into this place in Socorro, several folks commented about putting down roots.

That's bugged me ever since. Why? Because I HAD ROOTS ALREADY in my home state. In Texas. A place I loved.

But everyone there lost their goddamned minds, and we had to leave. I had friends, a community, a neighborhood, family, everything.

And it was STOLEN.

I'm not interested in putting that much work into a place ever again. Fool me once, and all that.

So no, I won't be putting roots down here. Or anywhere. I'll die where I die. I no longer care.

Well that's a kick in the balls. The ONE TIME in my life it may be possible to see the aurora from central New Mexico and it's FUCKING CLOUDY AND RAINING.

If you run for office, you should edit out some parts of your life story like...

having BRAIN WORMS or shooting puppies.

@qotca @Skepticat Don't feel bad, my husband's name is Brian, and Texas A&M University issued his masters degree diploma as "Brain".

He kept it. ;)

Made dinner reservations in Santa Fe for the boy's upcoming 19th birthday. He requested we go up specifically as we have spent the last 10 or so years doing just this for special occasions. Santa Fe is still magical for us. :)

He also requested we visit the violin shop while there. I think he wants a viola as even full size violins are now too small for him. He is a beanpole. Long and lanky. But he can tear up a string instrument. He's pretty good. :)

It's really a shame the worm died. It probably would have been more reasonable.

@tantramar I dunno, but the rattling sound you heard when he nodded, pre-worm, may be a clue. ;)

The worst part in this whole Stormy Daniels saga for me is the part where she overcame enormous challenges in her home life and earned a full ride scholarship to Texas A&M because she wanted to be a veterinarian, but couldn't go because the associated expenses were too much.

This is a TRAGEDY.

This also holds true for every kid who has the stuff to make it to university, but cannot because of shit like money.

How many doctors and poets and other genius have we missed by concentrating on sending the most mediocre fuckers on the planet to school, instead of people like her?

Hundreds of thousands. Millions, probably.

Disgusting.

Once more, huge shout out thank you to @GottaLaff for aggregating and live posting the various reporting on the trump trial.

It saves me so much time having to flip between reporting.

It's so nice.

Okay, this might sound weird, but this is what I'm thinking of today. I'm assuming most of you know the idiom, "Don't look a gift horse in the mouth." I know it's about looking at the horse's teeth to check it's age and health, but in my heart I have an alternate history where it's about The Trojan Horse, which doesn't really even make much sense, but it's still living there rent free.

So, does anyone else do this, make up alternate histories for words or phrases? If you do, I'd love examples!
