I’m pointing out that it’s difficult for even the most discerning social media users to see this post and determine who you’re trying to ban, because of the prominent logos in the link. I’m a proud weirdo, but I agree with you and think clarity of message is important. You aren’t achieving that.
A screenshot of the OP, text says BAN THESE AGENCIES and the logos of OCHU, CUPE, and CCPA are prominent above a headline about for profit staffing agencies

Today’s tiny ray of hope: repotted a bunch of my seedlings. Some of those itty bitty tomatoes have 6-8” root systems. That feels hopeful.

Any tiny rays of hope for you lately?
In front of a window, under grow lights, hundreds of tiny plants are growing in little containers of various sizes.

Made some super delicious individually hand rolled crackers with the rosemary from my windowsill and fancy smoked salt. This is the kind of special fussy shit I love doing.

I’ve been taking my meds on time and trying to be good to my body this week. I also bought 2 kilos of clearance toffees after walking to the dentist. Balance.

What’s your something nice this week?

Went out for appetizers and Activate games with the spice for Dave’s birthday and had a super fun time dodging lasers and throwing balls at asteroids 🥰 got zero pics, so here’s an Ember.

What’s your something nice today?

TSN: I’m now considerably less worried about how I’m going to handle the time commitment of the garden this year. We got our bag of seeds. Everything is melting. I’m putting on a happy face. I’m ready for spring.

What’s your something nice today?
