Life in these United States -
“Artax, please,” Atreyu begs into the animal's ear. “You're letting the sadness of the swamps get to you. You have to try. You have to care.
I feel this to the depths of my soul these days.

We owe a huge apology to the kids from Red Dawn. I grew up thinking if there was ever a hostile takeover of this country we would all be Wolverine’s! Instead we leave the front door open while we let anyone take what they want. Gen X has been overwhelmingly disappointing. I’m so ashamed of us all.

There - labeled correctly. Such utter bullshit that only serves to feed a megalomaniac’s ego.

I’m much more afraid of pasty white billionaires in their ivory towers than any person of color standing next to me in the street.

Can we talk about Emilia Perez? I’d read bad reviews but the awards and noms. I decided to watch. If I’d paid theater $ I’d be pissed. Why would they make this? It’s the worst of all tropes with no redemption. The songs aren’t memorable and are barely songs. It’s visually appealing at best. Why?

I feel so bad for people like this. Truly. It might be more embarrassing than a bad pop culture tattoo.

My supervisor went to the ER because she had sudden swelling in her legs and feet. Turned out she has an ectopic pregnancy. In TX. She was lucky because there was no heartbeat and could be treated. She could have just as easily been a statistic with so many other women in TX. This is terrifying.

It’s a wonderful Monday morning. I was deciding how long I could procrastinate before getting ready for work when I got the call that there is no power due to a car wrecking into a pole. Now I’m awake and trying to decide how to be productive for me. Perspective is everything.

I like following people back. It make me feel good - like a virtual hug. It’s my way of saying “I see you” and find what you say to be interesting. Or it could just be that I’m the oldest of 6 and mom of 4 and have a problem with wanting to please people. (But I swear I’m working on that!)

My random thought of the day - it’s 9-5 people. I asked my boss why I’m working 8-5. He said it’s so I can get an hours lunch. Did people just skip lunch or is this just another example of how we work more without any benefit?

I find it hysterical that Gov. Abbott and Paxton spent so much time and energy trying to gain favor with Trump and neither has been considered for anything. I’m convinced it’s because Trump doesn’t like disabled or disfigured people. They never had a chance.

I’ve been mom to actual kids for 30+ years. My son got fixed after we lost Roe. My youngest can’t have kids. I hope the others choose not to have them. I want them to enjoy all they can in life. I want them all to suck every drop of joy they can find. Life is hard and full of stupidity.

While I think no one has the right to take another’s life - it’s hard to feel sympathetic to the death of a man in charge of a company that bankrupted people before letting them die. His end was quick unlike people who couldn’t access timely care when it was available. Just not for them.

Interesting that “Justice” Thomas was hiding in the back of the room for years yet something “changed” and now he is empowered to be extra loud with his batshit crazy. I’m most upset that our standards as a nation have fallen so low.

“Certain people” like to call this place an echo chamber. I think it just means we have access to things they shun, like avoiding hateful people, facts, logic, reason, science, history, reading books, appreciation of art and interacting with a broad diverse group of people.

I love this so much more than I should. I can’t even repost without watching it several times first. It is so perfect.
The rules of the internet clearly state that when you see Tom Holland’s lip sync battle, you must re-post it.

Remember when "Ferris Bueller's Day Off" tried to teach us about tariffs and no one was paying attention

I hope that once the world returns to a nice normal sane place we don’t over correct. We need to remember MOST people deserve compassion and forgiveness. We need to remember the things that matter before we become permanently jaded. I will be trying to be of service to others when and how I can.

Since the election I’ve been going through some things. First was rage. That faded to disdain. Now I’m focused on what’s coming. I am resting, reading and keeping my eyes open without knee jerk reactions. We will need all our strength to get through this together. Stay alert and prepare.

Learned something new about my family. I’m Gen X, 2 Millennial kids and 2 Gen Z. We all have very different musical taste. We may have overlap between 3-4 of us but I’ve never found anyone unanimously liked. Till now - somehow we all agreed we all like Deftones. I’m quite perplexed and amused.

The sky seems to be in agreement with the move to this site. Add that it’s a glorious 67 degrees in Houston and for a moment you can stand still and believe all is right with the world.

This place is seriously helping me control the rage I’ve felt since the election. The rage is still there but by having it under control I can channel it as needed to make changes as they become available. How’s it go? Anger gets shit done. (Plus it keeps my home clean.)
