At the bottom is: ""Now they have the power to destroy you, but they won't."" Inside: ""This is what love is. Happy Valentines Day!"" Card 2: a black lake with forearms rising out of it. The fingers are held in the shape of a heart. The heart is the same black as the lake, with black droplets dripping back into the lake. Inside: Past performance is not a predictor of future results. Card 3: is a picture of a human heart on a white dinner plate with a fork stuck into the top. Blood is pooling on the plate & table. Quote at top: How do I love thee? Let me count the ways... Inside is a longer poem. Card 4: is a heart shaped picture that looks like brain or heart flesh. Then the text: Roses are red. Violets are sentient. Orchids have giant hearts. Lilies feel pain. This has been a comprehensive list of flowers. Happy Valentines Day!
4 cards: 1. A blue & pink background. A flesh-covered unidentifiable creature supported by many spaghetti-like legs. Text: Love is a many-legged thing with human skin & no eyes. 2. A peach background, a gray rock with 1 eyeball on top & 1 eyeball on the sand. A conversation bubble with a red heart in it. Text: Missed connection. I am a rock. You were near me. I have no idea who or what you are because I cannot perceive the world. I love you. 3. A sand background. A bug with 2 big eyes attached at the bottom to a nose & mouth, a body like a short beetle, with 2 arms up high, 2 arms down low & 2 legs. Text: You wanna be that way? Fine. Seriously, it's fine. I like you for who you are. 4. A pink background, black shadow people with pink heart eyes circle the card (3 left/right, 1 top/bottom), heads to the center, torsos at the edges. Text: Today you will meet a beautiful stranger. Actually hundreds of beautiful strangers. Everyone is beautiful & you know almost none of them.
4 Cards: 1: black abstract hands rising from the bottom, cupping a red heart. Inside the heart in white text: If you love something set it free. If it returns, burrows into your ribs, devours your heart & becomes your new heart it was meant to be. Happy Valentines Day! 2: a red & purple gradient background. A large red, yellow & pink heart. Text: Someday You'll find that special someone. You'll find them hiding in a dark corner of an unfamiliar room. They will be faceless, whispering. Happy Valentines Day. 3: abstract of 2 purple faces with red eyeballs, lips touching. The space between the lips, nose & chin form hearts. Text: Let's get together. Let's become one. Let's fuse our skin & share our bones & crawl about the world, terrifying & inspiring all who see. Happy Valentine's Day 4: baby pink with a red crochet-like heart made of bugs. Text: You say you're going to be alone on Valentine's Day. But you forget about the insects, ghosts & surveillance devices in your home. Happy Valentine's Day

Sometimes I hate eating, and not in an eating disorder way, but in a "I hate doing maintenance on machines" kind of way, if that makes sense. Having to figure out what to eat every single day is honestly a nightmare.

It’s been a week since my friend died unexpectedly. I haven’t been able to write what I want to for him, but I think about it all the time. He just. He deserves to have what I say be perfect.

“What happened to me then is happening now to millions of women and girls in a new and more terrifying way. Before, someone had to betray your trust and steal something real. Now all it takes is a computer and a stranger’s imagination. Deepfake pornography has become an epidemic.”

Update: I’ve created a note on my phone where I write down new ones of these that I come up with. I think this is my thing now.
Me: “I’m Ms. Del, and I’m the one who’s been throwing Kraft singles at Teslas.”
Student: “Follow-up question about the Kraft singles?”
Me: “No.”

“It’s 1st period English, and I still don’t know why we have that lever.”
“It’s 4th period English and today’s class was meant to have higher production value, but the theater department has stopped taking my IOUS.”
Me: “What do we already know about Dr. Martin Luther King?”
Student: “He died for our sins.”
Me: “…I mean. He /was/ assassinated…”
I don’t have the costume budget, and the theater department is tired of my IOUs

Student: “That’s I’m gonna start doing; I’m gonna go into people’s classrooms, fart, and leave.”
Me: “Your comedy will not be appreciated in your time.”

If I had a nickel every time I quoted the “Don’t recite the deep texts to me, witch. I was there when it was written” at students for reminding me of The Game today, I’d have TWO nickels.
Which isn’t a lot, but it’s weird that it happened twice.
