How does one tell a couple of their close friends that you have been feeling hurt and somewhat neglected for the past year or so without sounding like a spoiled selfish brat?

Anyone who voted for He Who Shall Not Be Named essentially voted for the downfall of the U.S.

Never forget this: The forces rigging our economy, undermining our democracy, polluting our planet, and stoking hatred are counting on you to give up. Cynicism is how they win. Stay clear-eyed and ready for the fight ahead.

Hate, Anger, insecurity are all things rooted in fear. It is important to examine this fear in one’s self or community and decide if it is founded or not. 1/

I know this is selfish to say, but I am so tired from the state of the world and it adding to a mounting pile of chronic stress I have had for years at this point. I wish humans would treat each other, other animals, and our planet better. Some are working toward that, but we need more to do so.

I feel so helpless because I have chronic illness, and dealing with neurodivergent burnout, and make only enough money to make sure my family can pay for bills and necessities. But the Billionaires, the people who could help don’t. Instead they hoard their wealth like Smaug from The Hobbit. 1/

The hate that is propelling the downfall of our country is frightening and exhausting. We had so many systems that needed changing and/or complete rehaul… but electing those on a platform of hate was not how to do it. Ugh. These shouldn’t be things that still need to be shouted, but they are.

Immigrants are people. Most of those that come to the US are just wanting to live their lives in a place that they were told was better. The US was built on the principle that immigrants should have a place to live (though I by no means support colonization.) Also 1/

Palestinians are humans and deserve rights, food, water, care, and a place to live. I am not anti-semitic, I am anti genocide. I cannot comprehend how anyone who understands the WW2 holocaust could justify what is happening to the Palestinian people. We should all be against genocide and hate.

The only groups of humans that deserve any negative treatment are groups that their entire philosophy is built on the hate of what they see as “others.” I realize this is not a new thought, but it feels like it bears repeating especially at a time like this.

I think I need to remind myself that nothing is going to go back to how it was before the pandemic and I need to allow myself to find a new “normal.” Why is this so hard to do?

Tfw you email your bosses because you have made some mistakes lately and you are scared they are disappointed in you, and you have a NEED for them to understand that you have been in a state of chronic stress for at least five years. It messes with one’s health.

I find it so interesting that terms/phrases such as “roll down the window” and “rewind” stay in use even though they originated with a specific action, and that actual action is no longer how it happens. Language is interesting!

This may be a little bit before I turned 21, but only by a few months so I can’t imagine I looked much different from this.

I think we as a society need to normalize talking about a lot of things, particularly things that may have been seen as taboo, but talking about them would actually be more helpful than harmful. The first one I am going to pitch today is sharing what triggers our anxieties. I think that is self 1/

Technically I am a fairy dragon, not just a fairy, but sometimes I do call myself only fairy or only a dragon. It just depends on my mood and the moment.

Got @dropout.tv to watch to help reduce stress and I am watching Um Actually starting from the beginning. One of the spells in a Season 1 Shiny question was from Flight of Dragons, which made me happy because I grew up watching that and have not met many others who have seen it.

Instead of stealing Greenland from Denmark, let’s steal some of their policies.
In Denmark:
- Health care and college are free.
- The starting wage is $22/hr.
- Paid parental leave is 1 year.
- Paid vacation is 6 weeks.
- All workers get pensions.

There is no moral equivalence between bullies and the bullied, between tyranny and democracy, or between brutality and decency. No individual can be free in a society devoid of justice. There can be no liberty where brutality reigns.
