So the world is a big old pile of shite at the moment huh?
Ok, I'm going to make a commitment to try and post something positive each day.
Maybe an image, a TTRPG idea, a ministory or even just a random bit of interesting knowledge.
If I forget, give me a day's grace then prod me to remind me.

No joke: I got angry hate mail today for writing an obituary of a Black woman scientist—because the person felt she did didn’t deserve the recognition.

If I ever start typing like a billionare, that level of shear incoherent keyboard abuse, just shoot me.
I can't imagine enjoying a life where I can't write coherently enough to be understood without several moments of careful deconstruction of my sentences.
