Okay so I need to figure out a tonne of examining stuff and get my online standardisation done, and plan my lessons for tomorrow, and idk generally sort my shit out but this is my last week working full time - after this week I go back to 3 days a week. That means the other days max is still at nursery and I can cook, clean, mark exams, help my sister when she goes on maternity leave and stuff. And I’m gonna join the gym so I can go and work out when I’ve dropped max off. Today I wore trousers I haven’t worn in yeeeears and the scale isn’t where I want it to be but my shape is definitely changing thanks to the strength training :) so yeah this week is gonna be a lot but then it should be pretty chill til the end of term!!!

God I don’t want to be at workkkkkkkk

I’ve updated some of the framed photos around the house bc a couple of them had a friend in them who has never met max or even messaged me to ask how we’ve been in the 2+ years since he was born. It’s sad because we used to be really close and idk if she feels like I don’t make an effort or if there’s some kind of weird feelings about me having a kid but whatever man that’s not a friend any more

One of my friends had multiple rounds of ivf and miscarriages and she still checked in (she and her husband have adopted 2 girls now and it’s so fab) so as far as I can tell this person just decided she doesn’t want to bother with me any more and it makes me sad seeing her face around the house tbh so I’ve put up one of Ro and two of max (one with my mum and one with my dad)

I look so beautiful! Nobody can tell me different!

[legallyblained]

Max is so bloody cute he’s just on the floor playing w trains and chatting to himself and I’ve drunk my hot tea and we don’t need cartoons on rn we’re just chilling on a Sunday morning

(Ps we are definitely not a no screen time family lol we watch tv and specifically the movie cars a LOT but my line I refuse to cross is that I never give him a screen to distract him in public and tbf to him he never asks for one and if we’re out for lunch or something he can chat and play and be a delight)

TIL anyone who's going to overwinter in Antarctica has to have had their appendix out. Because removing an appendix that's not causing any trouble just as a precaution is way better than having one that's about to burst when you're on the ass-end of the planet with no way to be rushed to a hospital if shit gets real.

[ironychan]

No, by the way, we absolutely did not think of this ahead of time. A dude named Leonid Rogozov got appendicitis in Antarctica. Fortunately, the expedition's doctor diagnosed him quickly and knew how to remove an appendix. Unfortunately, our man Leo was the expedition's doctor.

What did he do? Well, he set up a mirror, gave his belly a shot of novocaine, presumably told a colleague, "hold my vodka," and he removed his own fucking appendix. He survived.

I just realized that many many people have jobs

Rb with your job, wtf do you people do while offline???

you will never catch me complaining about an actress on a tv show having an imperfectly concealed pregnancy or a character going on a sudden trip somewhere while her actress is on maternity leave. so many actresses (and women working in any other field) are fired, punished and pressured into making reproductive decisions for their employers' convenience & if i have to try a bit harder to suspend my disbelief then that's absolutely what i'm going to do if it means people are getting to exercise reproductive & bodily autonomy without punishment

learning to stop hating yourself isn’t something that happens overnight.

it’s a series of negotiations you make with yourself over your whole life. it’s making one less self-deprecating joke. it’s looking at yourself in the mirror with a little more generosity. it’s forgiving yourself for that little mistake.

it’s not one thing and then you’re good. it’s many small choices you can make that slowly make your brain and body a little less uncomfortable to live with

We spent like 3 hours playing with one of Max’s friends (I’m also friends w her mum so it was nice for both of us) and I was so overstimulated when we left their house but then max didn’t nap so he’s overtired and he begged for his paddling pool so I inflated it and filled it up and he slid into it too fast and started sobbing so that lasted about 9 seconds and now I’ve given up and put cars on tv

I’m still really overwhelmed by the hacks finale tbh it was so perfect and moving but still FUNNY and god I miss Deborah and Ava and Jimmy and Kayla already and I’m obviously going to start watching it again from the start

Re the autism stuff I do often come back to ‘neurotypical people just don’t write as much glee fanfic as I did’

i love seeing best friends goofing around in public. i love seeing couples laughing together. i love seeing little kids walking hand in hand with their parents. i love seeing dogs running happily back to their owners. i love seeing closeness and positive relationships, and knowing all that love is out there
