Anyone know of any fun apps or games to help adults (ie me) practice number sense?

Hmmmm one YMCA gives a "young adult" discount ($32/mo vs $55/mo) for ppl aged 18-25. The other gives the same discount for ages 18-26. I think I'm gonna milk my "young adult" benefits of being 26 as long as I can...

Party was fun. Lots of cute girls with green hair. Time to sleep.

Me, constantly: "Oh, you're going through a hard time? May I recommend a song from Tori Amos's "Little Earthquakes" album?

Ughhhhhh woke up with swollen lymph nodes in my neck and an achey body.

I did *not* slog through the week just to spend my weekend in bed. :( :( I really want to go to a party tonight. fml

Does anyone else think the Costco poppyseed muffins kinda taste like cleaning products smell?

Like, not even in a bad way, necessarily. Just a "that there's some Lemon Flavor, huh."

So it's clear that none of these kids I work with were shamed into overeating in the interest of "clearing their plate", like I was. Which is good!

On the other hand, the amount of food they throw away makes me want to cry.

Good news: I got at least 8 hours of sleep last night!

Bad news: The kids are extra wiggly today, so I'm already worn out.

Bird in bed.

Night pals!

Okay this will out me as the incredibly boring human I secretly am BUT:

I just might get 9 hours of sleep tonight, on a weeknight, and I'm extremely excited about it.

(Excited in a sleepy way)

Sorry for the toot, didn't see the "don't reply".

I deleted my reply.

Lmk if you do ever want to talk, though. I'm going through some similar stuff.

I don't know why I just can't stand talking to my roommate sometimes.

She's a perfectly kind person, & when I plan to hang out with her (like get coffee or play dnd) I absolutely enjoy her company.

But whenever she comes home, her eye contact and intense affect feels... Almost painful? Maybe it's just the sudden, feral encounter, going from being alone to being Social With a Person.

Maybe I just have a huge amount of trouble being "off" in front of people, or switching quickly from off to on.

Oops I guess I'm in the kind of mood where I cry *multiple times* while watching Bojack horseman.

Idk, it's just amazing to think how much of my mom's "do the easiest thing" and "don't stir the pot unless you absolutely have to" ideology is ingrained in me, especially wrt to transition. Like, if I were 100% binary man I'd just go for it. But since I'm non-binary I don't feel justified transitioning. Idk what to do to feel happy or honest in this respect, ESPECIALLY since mainstream society thinks my identity is frivolous.

So my ideal transition goals are to go from being read as "masculine woman" to "eccentric, effeminate guy-type".

But being someone who's VERY non-binary and only occasionally (tho strongly when it happens) guy-aligned, I feel like a medical transition is difficult to justify.

I wonder if a better hospital might be to work with acceptance of my body as it is, and confidence with my presentation. Ie, carrying myself & behaving as though I already looked like I wanted to.

I had a dream last night that we were hanging out in your backyard (in my dream you had a great big back yard with lots of space to run around) and we were sitting in lawn chairs drinking tea and planning adventures.
