Sib 1 accidentally transferred $$ into sib 2’s account.
The family chat has not known peace since 6:15 am.
Me, I am voting we all divide it up so everyone gets $12 for the emotional distress this whole thing has caused.

Boosting! This would be a great nonprofit or social entrepreneurship idea for someone.
(Allergens and special diets are also an issue for food relief programs. It’s complicated!)

i really wish there were meal kits that catered to people with allergies. All the ones i’ve checked don’t have gluten free or dairy free, or only have one when i need both. i can’t have seafood either.

"Auntie" is what happens when you understand the expansive proposition of family

Yeah, that has a lot to do with it, too! The more we let people off the hook with the plausible deniability of "I didn't know" when the idea they wouldn't know is ridiculous on the face of it, the more cover we give actual extremists!

The best thing that happened today was the nephew sending me a weather update with his location set to 5 mins away from my place.
He lives 6 states away and just decided to stop by.
I. Am. Loved.

A narrative vacuum now exists in Kenyan politics. Ruto has the least legitimacy of any president in democratic Kenyan history. He was in the process of buying legitimacy and political capital from figures like Raila. How will the political class respond to the vacuum? is my question of the day.

Toni Morrison said, “Sometimes you don’t survive whole, you just survive in part.” Still, that survival can mean a hell of a lot.
As Audre Lorde said, “We must remember and comfort ourselves with that fact that survival is, in itself, a victory.”

It’s my brain’s equivalent of moist.

I propose we use angst or anxiety.
