Same. There was a tease this morning and I almost got excited.

Nobody will see this but here’s a little acrostic poem for my current mood.

Freedom is under attack
Unless we all fight back
Citizens pick up the slack

It's time for us all to stand
Courage across the land
End this disastrous plan

Everything sucks. Thank you for coming to my TED talk.

#caturday - am I doing this right?

Another honorable mention… felt good about this one too. www.writingbattle.com/story/debrie...

Just need to know why we don’t see Schumer and Jeffries dragging news crews to the WH grounds around the clock? This destruction has got to be worth, what, at least half as much coverage as the tan suit, right?

When things are really rotten I like to remind myself that through the magic of time separation and perspective, one day this will not have been as bad as it currently is.

Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-dammit!

Who are the five writers that made you?

Douglas Adams

Liked not to “like” your plight but to express support. You’re not alone in this burnout.

Thought you might appreciate this guy

Cats were going nuts so I turned around to see what was up and right outside the window was “oh hey”

Can we start calling him Grima Wormtongue?

Yeah he just posted it’ll be about 8 hours. Me, I’ve never been so invested in such a low-impact result.

👋 hi new follow-ee! You nailed it. @melmulrooney.bsky.social posted a starter pack of WB folks. I’m feeling cautiously optimistic about my entry, but it may be too romcom-y for the romance genre.

Haven’t seen your posts on TFS in years

#WritingBattle duels complete, now I have 9h38m to come up with 250 for #TwistedTournament. Serenity now!

Submitted my first round entry in the #twistedtournament, now on to judging my final duel in #writingbattle. Does this count as “doing the work” for an amateur writer, or is it just having fun?

Trying to devise the right coping cocktail. Options include: weed+wine+wellbutrin, prozac+pot+prosecco…
