crowsquee 

Spouse spotted and alerted me to the Gang of Three (nearby mated pair and their last offspring from last season) hanging out by the back porch. all three of them were sitting together on a branch, and Spouse said they'd all been preening each other. I was so ensqueed by this I immediately set out peanuts, which they aren't taking as quickly as usual--possibly because it's raining, possibly they aren't as hungry, or ????crowreasons????

trans women are basically estrogen elementals, right?

I keep thinking about this article.

sleeping aids (otc drug use) 

@kara@occult.camp @Leucrotta

3. (cont) remembering dreams seems to put my mind in a similar "dream state," which makes falling asleep *much* easier. it doesn't have to be one coherent dream; just remembering disconnected, random dream scenes will do the trick, though it's easier if I have a shred of narrative to follow.
4. sleep hygiene; if I *can't* get to sleep, I *get up* and go do something else. I give myself an hour of attempting sleep before getting up, ymmv.

sleeping aids (otc drug use) 

@Leucrotta @kara@occult.camp what works for me:

1. nightly NyQuil nightcap. one of the little cap-cups, once a night. multiple doctors have told me this is acceptable "off-label" use.
2. white noise--box fan, air conditioner/purifier, CPU fan--in a pinch I can use the "white noise" alarm clock noises, but most of them don't work well for me.
3. dream meditation. not quite sure how to explain this one... (cont)

@kara@occult.camp I have recurrent insomnia; I have some tricks to deal with it, but sometimes they just don't work, and there's no use lying in bed failing to sleep. :|

@kara@occult.camp failing to sleep. :| and having to be up extra early in the morning, so... no time to go back to sleep. wheeeee

@kara@occult.camp @KitRedgrave@glitch.social ..... so yeah, you're just supposed to go along with the dangerous, illegal, unethical shit that's being handed to you instead of doing your job and your duty and arresting the stupid motherfucker?? YEP THEM'S FAMILY VALUES

@kara@occult.camp @KitRedgrave@glitch.social ..... what was the lesson???

@senemura@occult.camp hmm... I'll try to check those out. *nods* and start putting together some summer shirts that aren't t-shirts to wear with them. :P
