I was raised by a formerly-Catholic-atheist who didn't do any unlearning & I frequently sum it up as: none of the faith or community, all of the guilt
Look I'm just going to say it: As someone who was raised atheist, I think a lot of you are bringing the baggage about the religion you were raised in into your atheism & it's not healthy.

I love pulling out my liter water bottle that I refill partway through the day in addition to coffee, kombucha, etc at this one. Just take a loooooooong sip through the straw with a blank stare.

It's disgusting that in addition to doing it they're trying to be cute about it. It's not cute. It doesn't deserve a cute zingy name.

At this point I'm just worried about the health of the upstairs neighbor's knees. It's not good for you to stomp around all the time.

Small joys: I bought a popsicle mold & for my first batch made Peanut butter fudge froyo pops
1/2 cup plain yogurt*
2 hot cocoa packets
Big honkin scoop peanut butter
Milk of choice until you reach 2 cups total
Blend until smooth & portion into popsicle molds
I plan to add a banana next time

Yes every conservative social media site becomes a tropical rainforest of school shooters and Ponzi schemes but did you know that there is a left-wing social media site where people are rude to the nation’s center-right political pundits

I woke up at 5 today & there's nothing better than that hour or so when it's just me and the birds outside.
Praise the Lord, for the first time in years, I am the only one awake in my house. May you all know the peace I am feeling right now and have it in your lives.

I haven't been posting about #nonfiction lately because I haven't been reading it. So here's a stack of #fiction from my local library.
I'm most of the way through Apprentice to the Villain & haven't started the others yet but I'll share my feelings as I go.
