Thank you so much for sharing your progress. I think people are unaware of the very real, very scary difficulties of living with a serious nutrient deficiency. I'm so glad you've found a path toward better health and more strength!

The inherent tension between a 4.3% unemployment rate and getting told during an interview that you were one of the hundred people who applied within the first day a job was posted for a temporary contract position explains the difference between the economy on paper and how the economy feels.

You got one already, but would you like two? I just want to make sure you consent to multiple hugs

Maybe we'll keep some InfoWars content up.

i hate absolutely everything about this

What is this I wanna see/hear/read the cute thing?

Thank you so much for prompting me to really look for it! I was expecting violence but what I'm seeing is a kind of metaphorical violence where you do still have to have the fight, but if you face the conflict head on, Saturn in Aries is kind of a paper tiger in the face of Mars in Aries.

I think you're absolutely right about showing the Saturn fall this way-- the boundaries of endings that Saturn threw up impulsively just don't have the longevity. As the Orphic hymn goes, Mars "can make the strongest walls from their foundations shake", and Aries Saturn foundations aren't strong.

Coming back to this after a week and seeing this conjunction really show up in my life and those around me:

One of the things that I've observed is road blocks busted open, in painful (or at least pain-in-the-ass) ways, but if one is willing to be brave and take the hit, progress is happening.

Yikes, that's scary but also reassuring that men stepped in so quickly and also acted like adults. Never a guarantee!

Love Venus in Taurus, but WOW, did I feel when my Taurus profection month ended. Just absolutely dropped off a cliff after some really lovely stuff in that little window before the 12th

Honestly ready for her to move into Gemini, just to feel something other than Hellfire rn

I’ll be real here, if someone nonwhite is saying there’s a racism problem in a specific differently marginalized community, it’s 99% likely they belong to said marginalized community. Like obviously nonwhite trans and queer people are going to have choice words about racism in trans and queer spaces

I’m also doing this

So much of marketing at this point is just coordinating with loads of short form video makers to make extremely low production value slop using your product, and there's no real creativity or joy in it. It's just churn, churn, churn. I'd rather do a survival job that allows me time to be creative.

A friend who genuinely is looking out for me suggested a marketing gig for me to apply for since I just lost a marketing job, and I couldn't begin to explain why, in this day and age of Meta and TikTok's complete capture of marketing, I would almost rather do ANYTHING else in the world

screenshot of google doc that says the following: Trans Metal Comp; Hi!! We're putting together a compilation album comprised of metal tracks composed by trans musicians and are currently seeking submissions! The album will be released on Bandcamp on June 26th and all sales will go directly towards individual trans folks' fundraising campaigns. We had initially planned on donating to an organization, but the fact of the matter is that right now, trans people need money, and the best way to help is by giving directly. We will be as transparent as possible with where the money goes and boost who we can. If that sounds good to you, read the guidelines below and come headbang along with us! \m/ ALL subgenres of metal permitted. Power metal, deathcore, crossover thrash; as long as it's some flavor of metal or has clear metal crossover influence to it, we'll likely accept it. Whether or not specific submissions are accepted is at the sole discretion of the organizers. If we end up not using your work for any reason, don't feel discouraged! It likely just didn't fit the vibe we're going for. NO tracks made with or containing anything regurgitated by "generative" AI NO Nazi shit. If you're trans and also a Nazi for some fuckass reason, look elsewhere. And get your damn life together. NO cis-led solo acts. If your band or project has cis people involved, that's fine!! As long as at least one member is trans and plays an active role in the performance and/or songwriting, feel free to submit. Up to TWO tracks per artist; up to two songs under the same name will be accepted. If you have or are involved with multiple projects, as long as they're distinct from each other and under different names, feel free to submit up to two tracks for each. You must own the rights to the music you submit; any tracks submitted must be owned by you or with the permission of whoever does, and you must personally be involved in the track in either its composition, performance on the recording, or…

are you:
trans?
a metal musician?
want to contribute to a compilation album that will raise money directly for trans people in need?

then what the fuck are you waiting for?? get in the pit!!

Every time a Democrat mentions how to talk to "ordinary people" they mean "how I was told to talk by a handful of weirdo consultants in DC with gross fixations on throwing certain groups under the bus and who would not last a day in an ordinary job interacting with ordinary people."

Today on Mars-Saturn conj. in Aries:

I want to get back to the gym because I've missed a week from traveling.

"But my body hurts from flying and sleeplessness! I'm not going to have good form and could hurt myself!"

"But I need to get back at it and rebuild my gains!"

[repeat ad nauseum]

Appreciate that my body decided to rid me of all water I was retaining from flying, just wish it hadn't decided it needed to do it every hour on the hour while I was trying to sleep

I will get back to making art soon because I really bloody want to, in the meantime if someone buys some already existent art of mine I’ll be so encouraged and emboldened and even arguably embravenated

Of course all this with usual caveats of other placements, etc. I have a Jupiter-Saturn conjunction, as well, though they're both in an overcoming if separating square with my natal Mars, so this could just be my exact delineation.

Definitely going to be a few days before I recover from having swapped my shade grown, l-theanine packed caffeine source for cigarettes while I was in Türkiye.

Listen, they were way cheaper.

Re: nostalgia for VHS tapes and other analog media, I saw someone say like "a VHS tape never sold my information to a nazi" and yes that's true! But the reason it's true is actually because Congress passed a law in 1988 specifically making it illegal for video stores to sell your rental history

So, so happy to be home where I can make my own matcha lattes exactly how I want them with excellent matcha that is still 1/40 cheaper than buying a matcha latte at a cafe.

I have Saturn in Libra natally, but my Saturn return was me hitting bottom so I could get sober, so I... uh... don't remember a lot of Saturn in Libra last time. 😅

From a natal perspective, I'll say my Saturn loves methodical, disciplined, structured progress. Not lazy, but slooooooow and precise.

This kind of victim-blaming bullshit drives me up a fucking wall.

The Bund didn't collapse because it failed in its goals - it collapsed because its members were victims of a genocide, and literally nothing they could have done could have prevented it.

This!! The Bund didn't "fail," they were massacred, along with European Jews of all political stripes.
