Aw, thanks, sis. ♥️
I don’t think I would ever make fun of Canadians even if I wanted to. I think if you grew up in the 80s or 90s in the US, you’ve always had, at least, the sneaking suspicion that they are MUCH funnier than we are.

I'm sorry, American friends, but we have to take back Superman, basketball, IMAX movies, egg cartons, and Keanu Reeves now. I wish it didn't have to be this way.

I’ve not had alcohol for 1,973 days.
Just a reminder than you can celebrate whatever milestone you damn well please.

Had to take my dog in for dental surgery today. I’m anxious about it, so I got myself a chocolate croissant and I’m stress cleaning my house.
Anyone else have fun coping skills?

Just saw a message that started with “I hope you’re keeping busy” and I’m sorry what kind of unhinged greeting is that

Remember, it helps just to listen, support, and love people. Sometimes that is enough.
We can’t actually be expected to solve massive systemic injustices by ourselves.
(Sorry, just reminding myself, a person who gains much of her self worth by helping others.)

I just worked out for my stupid mental health and it always annoys me to remember that it’s a 100% effective way to make me feel better.

Spite's a great motivator.

I wrote twelve books that way.

If you're feeling pissed off at the fuckery afoot? Spite, yo. It'll get you far.

I’m not totally sure what we do here but here’s a photo of my dog because my assumption is that joy is appropriate.

Oh hey. I guess we’re all here now?
