Feeling blessed. Feeling at peace. Oh, the scars collected. The struggles endured, more to come. ‘Til death do I part. But on this day I rest, thankful for another sun, another chance to lay my head. Only you are next to me. Could it last forever?

My favorite new-to-me movies I watched this year 🖤

I had planned to list 12, but that ended up just being new movies I liked, so I cut it to 8 so I'd have to make tough choices.

(If you bash any of these in the replies, you'll have toothaches for New Year's, go make your own post to whine)

The symbiotic relationship between person who is nervous/unsure of commenting how much they enjoy someone's writing/art, and the writer/artist who is far too flustered by the compliment to reply anything besides crying emojis, hearts, and smiles behind their screen.

While, yes, everyday I grieve for all that's been taken -- today, yesterday, throughout the centuries that this evil fucking empire has existed -- I am invigorated to see people across the country do everything they can to protect their neighbors and fight back against oppression

This is Diana and Jon. They ran ArtEssence, an art-theme cafe in my city. My writing group went there regularly. they were our friends. they’re gone now and their cafe has been turned bland and corporate by new owners. Fuck ANYONE telling me to care for the devils who did this to them. I hate you.

I do not give a flying ass fuck about how ICE agents feel. Shut up.
Just thinking... we give so much attention (as we should!) to the victims of state violence, ie, people sent to CECOT.

But, we give little consideration to the psychic violence suffered by those tasked with carrying out the physical violence.

Yes, they "chose" those jobs. But...

Try parenting. Step 1, don't let your kids have ANYTHING electronic until age 12. Step 2, even when they get those electronics, limit the amount of time they spend on them. Step 3, live by example and put the damn phone away yourself.
Are your kids glued to their screens? For just under $8,000, your teenager can live in a college dorm for four weeks with no tech access.

The first week is rough, but eventually the kids relearn how to spend time offline, said the camp’s executive director.
