I must not mock Gen Alpha. Mocking Gen Alpha is the mind killer. Mocking Gen Alpha is the little-death that brings total generational solidarity obliteration. I will engage with Gen Alpha lovingly. I will permit them to be cringe. And when they grow up I will turn my eye to their accomplishments. Where mocking has gone there will be nothing. Only generational solidarity remains

No one ever tell me anything bad about the person who runs this account.

tired: mermaids are all women

wired: much like elves, merfolk are mistaken by sailors for being all women because they have long hair and are very pretty

I just want you all to know, that if and when this site does experience a real exodus and/or get sunsetted for good, even if we don't keep in touch I'll remember you so fondly. You're the online equivalent of the other kid on the beach where we built sandcastles together; the girl at the campsite where we explored the trees. You're the drunk person who shared kind words in the bathroom at the club, you're the talented artists at the life drawing class or the poetry night in a city where I don't live anymore. It makes me sad that maybe in the future our paths won't cross so easily, but even when we leave this little shared piece of cyberspace, carried away on our briefly intersecting trajectories, just know I still love you

today i took time to slow down and just take everything in. had a great run, took a cat nap (nap with cats), saw a movie, walked to meet a friend. no time pressures, nothing that *had* to be done, just existing calmly

it was really nice. and it made me really sad that this doesn't happen more often

Is finally here.

I was avoiding my homework earlier so I ended up searching a bunch of info about ADHD and

Are the neurotypicals okay?

The day before the race? Yeah, no, it's all about food and taking it easy. Starting with taking the bus to this morning's shakeout run at Tracksmith London

Post-run, we EAT! Carb loading. It's the real deal.

After an afternoon nap, we went to Harrods (for chocolate) and Rococo Chocolate. We...need to stop buying so much chocolate 😂

More carb loading. I always have pizza and full sugar soda the night before a long run.

The rest of the night we watched Brittany Runs A Marathon and inspirational YouTube stuff while texting my sister. And we got our stuff together for tomorrow.

We are ready.

The Adventures of Lego Flash: London Edition

It's MARATHON WEEKEND! Which means ⚡Lego Flash⚡ is out and about!

If there's anything we know, it's carry your race day gear on your person/in your carry-on. Don't put it in a checked bag because you never know what might happen.

Taking the train to get to the plane! Because trains are a superior form of mass transit, even though they're not invested in enough or carry enough interest in the US

On the plane! Then off the plane! Then back on 2 hours later. They found an issue and had to do maintenance. When I say we almost didn't make it, I mean the pilot said we had 5 minutes to get air-bound or London's airport wouldn't let us land. We made it. Extremely late.

TORE through Des Linden's memoir on the plane and was teary-eyed by the end. Absolutely recommend. I am so damn INSPIRED now.

It took a while, but we made it. We finally made it to London. The Underground stopped running because it was after midnight, and we were exhausted, so we took a cab to where we were staying. Worth it.

for fucks sake

I once saw a discussion in YouTube comments where a self-described Christian was very concerned about doing yoga because of its roots in Hinduism. This person was straight up saying it would be sacrilege for them to practice yoga. This entire argument made no sense to me, and this person sounds very ignorant and just...foolish, tbh. But to each their own.

Anyway. Religious affiliation or not, or doesn't stop me and ⚡Lego Flash⚡ from our weekly Friday Morning Yoga.

Breakfast in Europe is yummy.

That's it, that's the whole blog.

Today was ALL about the race expo!!

Also a bit of shopping. I promised The One I Love that I'd bring him back some good chocolate. Chocolate for him, new Tracksmith gear for me.

⚡Lego Flash⚡ is VERY excited to have his name on a shirt!

It's been another long day. I'm tired. Time to take it easy and get some extra rest before race day.

High-speed Rail from New York to Chicago should be the top priority of rail funding once the current round of amtrak expansion finishes and California High-speed Rail opens
