We started the year saying goodbye to a wonderful companion that grew up with each of our kids. Mayhem constantly looked out for and protected them. She was such a sweetheart and always offered a comforting snuggle. She’ll never be replaced in our hearts and memories.
100% I’m always cautious of who is being excluded when I see a book like Sheila’s
this is no shade to johnna here. but i think it's important to mark a clear difference between writing to a purposefully narrow demo, & writing from an exclusionary lens that does not acknowledge and affirm the validity, goodness, beauty, wholeness, or even existence of every other demographic.

It was so good to be able to join this morning. My day was brighter because of the amazing people there

I give thumbs down and exaggerated laughs to cybertrucks and lifted trucks in my area
I always feared literal quicksand growing up, not realizing it would actually look like white evangelical indoctrination

If anything, @cortland.me sharing his daily fit is bringing me joy. Give him a follow! ❤️
The more I process about the convo I had with my gaslighting and manipulative mother over Thanksgiving the more baffled I get
Dehydration more likely
Talking to my mom about any kind of difficult topic this past weekend was like talking to an AI chatbot whose prompt was to spout off f*x news and white evangelical talking points while completely ignoring cognitive dissonance

I thought some of I was seeing online was sometimes a stereotype, but I’m here to tell you it is very much how people are operating IRL

i'm not serious on this account very often. but if you don't make it clear that you ride with trans users here, i will seriously campaign for you to be nuclear blocked into oblivion.
Not my mom telling me over Thanksgiving I was diagnosed as ADHD in grade school and they never told me and never got me meds because they were scared of the side effects and I got myself diagnosed at 40 years old and appreciate the meds now

Having a very tense conversation with a conflict avoidant parent while I’m trying to heal/work on my own conflict avoidance was not fun
So people are using APIs to automatically like and follow people here based on keywords in posts? Cool cool cool…
Trickle down didn’t work for economics, but you expect it to work for washing your legs?!

1. Price trackers have proven that Amazon has been slowly hiking prices so they can pretend to slash them on Black Friday/Cyber Monday. There are no actual deals. Just the appearance of them.
2. Amazon workers are on strike

It’s a donuts and Dutch Bros day. Wearing my ATL hat with the Content Warning event coming up on my mind.
I’d love to see you there if you can make it!
In honor of all the new arrivals, I'm sharing one of my favorite videos.
It shows 24 hours of Earth's rotation, with the camera locked to the sky instead of the ground. We're all hanging out on this spinning rock.

7) My first “real job” was at Sonic Drive-In as a carhop. I ran into a pole while counting change once. No, I didn’t do the roller skate thing while I worked there
Growth!
