I made a big career decision this year and it has taken all of my strength to focus on what’s best for me. Enriching my ✨inner✨ world when the outer world seems to be crumbling feels revolutionary.

I’m in the same situation as you. My mom is too far gone to be helped. I have tried so hard. Even my own brother who is married to an immigrant with undocumented parents can’t be persuaded. It’s horrible.

just wanna retire and go live in some quaint seaside town with my cat where i run a little bookstore that sells magical potions and spells that turn idiots into frogs and maybe help solve a local murder every now and then.

The botanical gardens with a friend, reading and bread baking. ☺️

My mother is poor and working class. She hasn’t planned for her retirement outside of social security and her children. She voted for this. She worships this. It is her identity. I pity her and pray for her heart. I’m not sure how to love her anymore but don’t want to lose her/save her.

My Saturday farmers market haul. 😍

Well deserved. 🌈🥰

i’m just a girl who whispers “what in the mother fuck” under her breath 800 times a day.

“I’m in mourning for my life.” Super valid. 🙃

Jotting down my joys to keep the malaise away:

❤️ My sweet little chihuahuas skipping and spinning through a dark kitchen and toward their breakfast.
❤️ Hugging my friend every morning while she makes coffee.
❤️ Body Balance class where I am restored and humbled.

My weekly library haul. #publiclibrary #librarychallenge #libraryhaul

Kobo has been a great transition for me. I have their newest e-reader in color. They price match with Amazon too.

I love StoryGraph. ❤️

“I Who Have Never Known Men” by Jacqueline Harpman. I think about it so often.

A scrapbooky, zine-like image. In the top left corner there’s a picture of a young kid in rainbow face paint waving a rainbow flag atop a woman's shoulders, as they both watch a pride parade. A photo of a group of people, young and old, carrying a pink LESBIAN & GAY PRIDE banner is seen in the bottom center. Top right, a picture of two gorgeous drag queens: one in a light pink wig and white dress decked in butterflies, and the other literally dressed as Lady Liberty in a rainbow toga. Text throughout, in mismatched fonts and on torn paper, reads "Q: So, what is QLL? a: Queer Liberation Library is an ONLINE DIGITAL LIBRARY …that is by and for the LGBTQIA+ community and our allies, focusing on queer materials and queer perspectives.”

Wow, hi new followers, hey! We’re Queer Liberation Library.

QLL is a digital library of queer ebooks & audiobooks available FOR FREE to anyone in the US. Our collection’s in Libby so you can read to your heart's content on your e-reader, phone, etc.

I’m struggling to make impactful decisions right now. So, finally, after years of being on and off the wagon, I am done with Amazon. It’s a start. #anticonsumption #deleteamazon #broligarchy
