If my family didn't live in Texas, I'd move closer to them in a heartbeat. But I cannot see myself moving back to that state at this point. It'd be detrimental to my mental, spiritual, and physical health.

Heard "focus on where your feet are" as a way to combat anxiety amd staying present, and it's actually been working today.

Every time I think "i could stay in Kansas city and make a long-term home here" so.ething happens that convinces me that this is a relatively temporary stop. I've been back for a little over 5 years and the things that have kept me here no longer have a strong bond.

Can we also extend this to normalizing not using queer slurs to insult him and his goblins?

It wasn’t funny when you called *insert ghoul here* “First Lady” or gave whomever a feminine sounding name and you will never ever be funny or cute for doing it.
It’s not “American Taliban” it’s white Christofascism

It’s not “Mullah Trump” it’s WHITE supremacy

It’s not “Christian sharia” it’s White Christofascism

Stop going “What are WE? A bunch of MUSLIMS?” with y’all’s analogies

Stop blaming Muslims for WHITE XSTIANS

Y’all are being bigots

I knew I should have purchased the blue Wasteland, Baby! vinyl set when I saw it 😭 i guess I can rectify it by getting the tooth white UUU set.

Following up - this was one of the best shows I've ever been to. He talked Palestine and voting and the connection between US civil rights movement + him growing up in a free Ireland. We need more aware musicians/celebrities like him.
I'm so happy I decided to go my own way and buy a Hozier ticket for his OKC show rather than wait for a friend of a friend to "look for tickets" for tomorrow's shows in KC. I watched resell tickets come and go on ticketmaster today and haven't heard anything from the girl.

I no longer feel interference was at the level I thought last week. Seeing how many people (from various demographics) are gloating and/or are misinformed about politics, economics, history...I shouldn't be surprised.

A goof friend of mine, whom I've known for about 4 years, is in Madrid and saw one of my fave artists there (hozier!). I haven't been texting her cuz she's on vacation n shit, but today she sent me a video.

Of Hozier singing Work Song at the Madrid concert.

What is your plan to protect you Black neighbors, colleagues and community members?

How are you working to seperate their humanity from your whimsy?

How are you defending Indigenous rights ?

How are you repairing so they are strong for what’s to come ?

that’s the work

6 days ago, I accidentally left my made-specifically-for-my-glasses clip-ons in a grocery store cart. Felt pretty shitty about it, but I left my name & # with customer service, just in case

They turned up today. Someone found them in the parking lot yesterday, and somehow, they are still *pristine*
I accidentally left my clip-on sunglasses in the grocery store cart, and the immediate negative self-talk that happened actually alarmed me. I had to gentle parent myself and do the whole "it was a simple mistake. It's not life or death."

(Still tho, I hope whomever got the cart turns them in)

This is still heavy on my mind. Talked it thru with a neutral party and they reminded me that friendships ebb & flow. As my mom says "Reason, season, lifetime". I know these are lifetime friends, but holy shit do those lives look different.
When you open up to friends after years of therapy and their dogged encouragement and one day* realize that they're not opening up to you.

Like, maybe it's bc we're in very different seasons of life, but why is my phone dry.

(Marking this down for therapy next week.)

*today was that day

Last year around this time, i had a bit of a falling out with a family member I was very close to. It's sucked not being as close but I reached out to talk through some things and they were right there with me. Spent and hour and some change on the phone working out solutions.

I'm in a couple splatterpunk book groups on the bookface and the quantity of authors using AI for their covers...

I'm notorious for not picking up when ppl are flirting with me, so my friends will step in and give me little signals when it happens.

But sometimes I think those "flirting" ppl really are just being nice and throwing a compliment my way.

I started reading Hunger x Roxane Gay a few days ago and I'm a bit more than halfway through it now. I carry every book I've read somewhere in my memory, and I know this one is gonna stay at the forefront for a long time. I didn't expect it to affect me such a way.
