I keep forgetting I have this app.

I can usually at least find one thing to talk about in therapy on any given week. Today instead we talked about why talking about ANYTHING feels like too much. Hopefully next week I can actually talk about literally anything I actually need to talk about. Because today I just couldn’t.

Yesterday my most attention seeking cat spent several hours fully pretending to have lost her voice. She was revealed as a faker when she made an annoyed meow that my dog was in the same room as her. Today is back to using her full volume scream meows for attention.

100%

This is how we resist. We stay focused and we keep them distracted. We make every single thing they want to do harder. Sand in the gears. Wrench in the works. No "common ground." No compromise. No surrender.

Even with an authoritarian, making bad policy takes time. Let's run out their clock.

Just gonna say it: no one should be starting brand new organizations right now. No funders should be giving millions to randos who say they're going to fight Trump.

Find organizations that are ALREADY DOING THE WORK and who are meaningfully accountable to a grassroots base.

Ask how you can help.

Friendly reminder that if you’re concerned about the actions this administration has already taken in regards to public health, it isn’t too late to start masking again.

Mitigation of the spread of airborne infectious diseases is an action we can individually participate in - tell all your friends!

I wore mascara for the first time since… probably December of 2019.

Yes, I did stab my eye with the wand. Oops.

people keep tagging me in fuck around and find out content like I haven’t been talking about how pandemics lead to fascism since 2020.

The “find out” portion isn’t just for everyone who doesn’t consider themself a liberal—it’s for them too.

Haven’t masked in 4 years? FAAFO.

I think I need these 😍

I was opening up this app deciding if I should make a silly post asking whether I should make an unboxing video of my latest order of N95s (because I’ve never stopped masking) and first post I see is from a friend who has a coworker out sick with COVID, rsv, and the flu… so, unboxing vid anyone? 👀 😷

To my able bodied comrades: It’s time to stand with disabled people and be in solidarity with us. Wear a mask and practice compassion and community care.
To my disabled comrades: I love you. ❤️

After years of not, I’m trying to figure out how to feel like me again. Which, what a time right? Except, the me that I used to be is the exact kind of me these times need, so, maybe it’s okay that it took a while for me to get back here. I found me just in time, I think.

i hate to be that girl but we're gonna need to really quickly move past complaining that everything is "unconstitutional" or whatever and start talking about what we are actually going to do to materially resist fascist attacks and defend marginalized communities. laws are fake. lives are real.

One of my cats is convinced she has never received any attention in her life, and that any attention she does receive might be her last.

This cat was born in this house two weeks after we rescued her mother from life as an actual stray.

She has never known a life without attention.

I do miss when I had people I could talk to. Posting to an app just isn’t the same.

My world has gotten very tiny these last few years.

And, I’m not -not- concerned about what these upcoming years will mean, after today, after what we’ve already been told to expect…

Obligatory first post.
