I wish I'd figured out sooner that it's okay to not want to be a worker drone, but that exploring what gives me a sense of purpose would get me to the right work.

I just did the math and I've been dealing with my period for MORE THAN THIRTY YEARS
What kind of absolute bullshit is this?!
Literally had to use a calculator to double check myself
Holy hell

I just can't be bothered to get along with everyone again until one of us stops trying to oppress people and take away everyone else's rights just to feel special or whatever.

It feels like an endless game of shouting, "They can't DO that!".
But they do it anyway.
What's going to be left to shout about at the end of it all? Will we even be allowed to shout?

Like, metaphorically I feel like I'm approaching a boss fight, but literally I'm going to BE the boss. I don't know what to do with that?

I've had the same toilet for about 22 years and today I'm getting a new one. I'm trying to figure out if I'm feeling something about it.
I mean, I've spent a lot of quality time on that toilet. But also, is a new toilet like a "treat myself" situation?

You know how sometimes boys are programmed to be mean to people they secretly admire to artificially inflate their own pathetically underdeveloped sense of self?
Unrelated: Nice Zelenskyy-inspired outfit you wore in Greenland, Vance. Totally not weird at all. Great cosplay.

Has this all been an elaborate ruse to trick climate change deniers into buying electric cars...?
(I mean, no, obviously it's about greed like just about everything else happening right now, but how weird that it's come to this, huh?)

Everything is spinning out of control and we're all fed up with assholes throwing their privilege around, and I feel like a failure because I keep having to tell my team that some fights aren't worth it right now just to keep us rolling.
I know it's bad for morale, and it's bad for us.

A lot of people are going to need some time to warm up to the idea of actively rebelling, but small steps like these are going to help acclimate people who are hurt and angry by what's happening in the US. Even if the act itself doesn't make a huge impact, it will help us adjust our comfort levels.
For the record, do I think a one-day boycott is going to make much of an economic impact? No. Do I think that a sort of "Baby's First Boycott," performative though it is, might be useful to make some folks aware of the impact of their economic power, and how it might be wielded politically? Maybe.

Three specific times I felt the most embarrassed to be American in the last ten years:
When Trump was elected the first time.
When Trump was elected the second time.
When Trump tried to bully Zelensky on live television in the Oval Office today.

When I was a kid, my grandpa would regularly call me and tell me he deleted files off his computer because he didn't know what they were for. To him, this meant they couldn't possibly be important, even though they were critical OS files. Every time, his computer stopped working.

I unironically cannot figure out if Musk is a real life supervillain or the most uninformed, disassociated, delusional megaboss on the planet.
I mean, I guess it could be both?

It seems profoundly unfair that as I get older I'm more prone to getting sick, but also unable to comfortably lounge in bed all day. What kind of bs is this?

Okay. Okay, okay, okay.
I need everybody to take a deep breath with me, and then maybe five or six more deep breaths.
And then, after we collectively subvert this very natural panic response, we're going to all sit down together and figure out exactly what we need to do, step by step.

Here's the thing...we shouldn't have to DEMAND the Dems push back. They damn well should be doing it already BECAUSE IT'S THE RIGHT THING TO DO.
You won't earn my vote by kissing my ass and making promises. You'll earn my vote by showing some common decency and rising to this moment.
