Can we call this timeline done yet?

I'm just a tired middle manager at an indie bookstore wishing it was Friday.

The only interesting things about me are my cats, and my willingness to cook... Because I'm sure as fuck not eating the rich raw.
My new psychologist has advised I need to invest in leisure time, so I need "leisures"...

This far I have
-maybe I want to learn to sew
- I maybe want to crochet something
- I get dopamine from cleaning my husband's bathroom...
- Bunnings trip!!

I think I need a responsible adults assistance

Some issues I don't know enough to have an opinion (nuclear, more or less immigration, closeness to China, monarchy - frankly I just have bigger concerns like will I be able to afford rent than if we have a king) and I'm not afraid to say I don't know. Apparently vote compass doesn't like that.

In non seriousness, would you believe the Trade Coffee quiz does not have non coffee drinker friendly answers in their quiz and some how assumes that you want to drink coffee.

All I keep thinking is my Poppa fought this was ~80 years ago so his children and grandchildren and their children's children could live in peace... So why do I feel like I have to fight it again?

I'm not saying it's fair or right, but my life exp taught me the rule was we don't care or talk about 3rd world dictatorships, so I'm going to need some consistency from ABC News when they share information about Afghanistan and the USA, including tone, responsiblity & human rights abuse focus.

I am currently getting the attention of scammers on TikTok who want to send me money... Do I give them my locked down PayId?

For the giggles?

Given the climate we live in, the demolition of affordable housing should come with the condition that the developer pays the cost of providing accommodation to the current residents until they build actual affordable housing for at least those residents, and I would argue double the residents.

Courtesy of Hank Green, ice is(/can be) a rock, lava molten rock expelled from the interior of a terrestrial planet. Water can be expelled from the interior of our planet, therefore water can be lava. Ergo people can be lava monsters.

What I'm trying to say is logic only gets you so far.

I'm on my way to severing my ties to meta, I have killed insta (easy only installed to avoid insta whining at me when I clicked a link), removed my advertising data from Facebook (still working on removing my accounts)

Now just need to find a new chat app that other people use.

When people ask me "what I am reading right now" my answer is always vague when realistically it is "Reddit posts and comments section" but my bedside table always looks like...

Apparently I'm not great at reading books, but I'm amazing at collecting them
