It is through purposeful softness and earnest compassion I find my joy.
I think plants 🌿 and animals 🦝 are neat.
Otherwise, I'm just another NPC in this game of life, so feel free to stop by and see my intrusive thoughts on display.

Been reading a little mythology and it seems like one of the main cross-cultural themes is, “do not, under any circumstances, get on a boat.”

"dei medal" you might as well just put "n*gger medal" because that's what they mean to say
This is blood-boiling. Charles Rogers was awarded the Medal of Honor in Vietnam after being wounded three times leading the defense of a position.

Google his name and the entry below comes up. When you click, you'll see the page has been deleted and the URL changed to include "DEI medal."

I'm a very big marshmallow of a human who was born in a time when I had to adapt to mounting cruelties or be swept away by them.

I mourn for the soft and fuzzy I could have been sometimes, but that's not how it went, so Bitch Face it is.

A point to consider.
This is probably the most accurate take.

Living in a small town has its perks - I mind my business and literally do nothing but work and go home.

The rumors I hear about myself are WILD and I'm always like "wow I did all that? That's crazy." And keep trucking along.
I've always got entertainment at least!

Thinking of pregnant women who are terrified of what's going to happen to their family in border states.
Thinking of my trans sisters who are in immediate danger in red states.
Thinking of my disabled friends who can't afford their meds rn.
So many people are going to die if we don't do anything.

Trump has deployed active military to help round up migrants and put them into detention camps.

The military forced us out of our homes at gunpoint in 1942 because we were considered possibly disloyal Americans. They sent us to internment camps for four years.

History is repeating. Pay attention.

It's just beautiful to see.
I believe the general internet tradition on these kinds of things is well known.

Wonderful news!
"Fossil fuels are losing their grip on EU energy. At the start of the European Green Deal in 2019, few thought the EU’s energy transition could be where it is today; wind and solar are pushing coal to the margins and forcing gas into structural decline"

Big new @ember-energy.org report on EU energy
European Electricity Review 2025 | Ember
The EU’s electricity transition continued at pace in 2024, as solar overtook coal for the first time and gas declined for the fifth year in a row.

Still thinking about Luigi and the fact we now have a swarm of justifiable reasons in the public's opinion to have a whole Super Mario team of vigilantes.
Will it happen? Mm probably not, but I admittedly think about it more than I should.

I def have compassion fatigue when it comes to politics right now. I’m not anxious. I’m not depressed. I’m not numb. I’m just tired of people ONLY caring about things when it affects them personally. (1/2)

I used to dream of days like today: I come home from work and the space is in quiet chaos. Toys are strewn about, the snack bags are open, and there is a cuddle puddle of our child, spouse, and dogs sleeping peacefully.
It looks like they had a great day! Warms me to the core -what a great life. 🥰
