Invertebrates are cursed!

My siblings and I are all allergic to shellfish. Middle Sibling and I manifested it the same way: early in life it caused mild gastrointestinal problems, which over the course of decades progressed toward anaphylactic shock.

Oldest sibling was fine for the first thirty years, and then suddenly developed a pretty serious reaction to it. While it's the same allergy (they're also allergic to bugs and snails and stuff, just like us), I wonder if it was caused by the same thing because of how different it is.

IDK, retirement accounts are weird

Oh, good, my retirement money was not taken away, just moved to a different account with a different company.

I should probably... contact that company... and figure out what to do with it.

?????????????????????

Why.

Are umbrellas.

Gendered.

Becoming a cyborg is starting to sound really appealing

I'm hopping around the house like some sort of flamingo because I guess today is Left Ankles Stand Up Against Poor Treatment by Not Standing Up Day.

Halp?

I know that CODA is the term to use if I'm looking for information on hearing children of Deaf parents.

What do I type into my magic tube box if I want the opposite - info on Deaf children of hearing adults?

(And if you happen to already know something I can read, I'll take that too. A lot of what I am getting seems awfully... Autism Mom-y to me.)

50% of my job was fixing the Scunthorpe problem

I learned the basics (fuck, damn, shit) just from life in general, but most of the swear words I know today, I learned from looking at the default censor at a forum I used to moderate.

It just looks so weird?

I've come around to nibling as a gender neutral term for niece/nephew.

But pibling for aunt/uncle still trips me up a lot.

No? :(

Is it December 26 yet?
