Just a bewildered traveller of the stars. Legally an adult, mentally? Who knows. Check out my poetry at http://elucidatingquestions.ca oh, but trigger warning as it's a poetry journal so things get heavy. My brain and body are broken.

The Liberal government kissed Trump's toes by committing billions of dollars to boarder security and the tariffs are still going into effect. Libs are a freaking joke. Shut the US out of international trade, now.

Why Is it that we have a derogatory word for when you can see a person's labia through their pants, but not for when you can see the whole damn outline of a man's dick through his? More importantly, why do we ridicule people for having *checks notes* completely normal shapes on their body???

Canadians flying flags and getting all nationalistic, please, for the love of god, do not forget that your country is failing homeless people, people with addictions, mental health sufferers, and disabled people. It's about to get so much worse for us all, and they still refuse to help.

Do you ever see something from your past, or hear something, and your body, your actual body, thinks it's hilarious, but you can't for the life of you remember why? I'm laughing and I have no idea why.

I want to know how vapers have been paying a 20% provincial tax in BC for years and yet there been NO improvement to government programs at all. How?

In which I ponder "cute" and the emotion of cute and the origin of the feeling of a thing being cute. elucidatingquestions.ca/2025/01/18/3...

I hate that shipping companies can just make up stuff like "weather conditions" to delay your package. I know the route it's taking to get here, I know for a fact there are no "weather conditions" anywhere near where my package is nor here where it's heading. Stop lying and just admit you fudged it.

There's an operator at the handy bus line who's like 10/10 rude, as far as a customer service employee goes, but I felt better after hearing he's like that to the drivers too when he's working dispatch. Thought it was me for a bit. Now I just laugh when I hang up. Such a grump.

There's something novel about raising my steam deck over my head. Like, five year old me with their PC tower that's as big as they are is boggled.

Facebook isn't even well designed. It's glitchy as hell now. It had its hay day. It's a bit wild how these billionaires are purposely tanking their own social media companies though.

Well, I'm terrified, but I'm getting my forms in to the housing registry for supplemental support. Hopefully something goes well for me. I've always got stuff done, regardless. It's just hard when I know even getting stuff done isn't going to get me a house...

Ancient People when it rained too little: WE HAVE ANGERED THE GODS Modern People when everything is on fire, hurricanes are destructing, and record freezes happen: This is normal and acceptable I don't know how you look at climate events right now and not get "The Earth is pissed" energy.

Saw a thread today on threads where the person was bemoaning their poor mental healthcare because "so many" people "pretend to be suicidal for attention". I couldn't reply. But it's been bothering me all day. PSA: No one is suicidal "for attention". 1

Dear Earth, you did the thing. And as long as you continue doing the thing and you haven't been consumed by the Sun's rage or a meteor or some other celestial mishap, you'll be fine. Humanity may not be, but you will. Love you Giant Rock Mom. Happy New Year.

Tried to I guess come out as non-binary to my male immediate family members yesterday. Felt like maybe one of them got it as he basically said he'd been using they them pronouns for me already. But two of them went into this rant about the individuality of each human. 1

Why is it that whenever I tip extra on doordash I get the dasher who spills my coffee or mishandles the bag in some way? I was trying to be nice on new years day and it backfired into me having to clean my floor and have half a coffee. 😂

I feel this daily at work on cash. Especially when they're a price obsessed person the managers are appealing to.

My cop landlord doesn't give a crap about his dog when he's at work. He left the house at 6:30 last night, the dog hadn't been out for a bit then, I woke up at 9am and he apparently decided it was overtime time. Poor animal was crying to get out. He's evicting me so I won't be able to help anymore.

Happy Solstice. May the Sun return just a little bit earlier tomorrow morning. The darkest day has been defeated. On to the light of Spring!

The word "so" is so innocuous you wouldn't expect a tiny two letter word to be so robust. It's descendant from German and its predecessor has created a similar "so" in over half a dozen other languages on its way to being part of modern languages.

I suck at the scientific method. Things go wrong with my technology and I just do a thousand things at once, eventually it fixes itself, I have no idea what worked or why. Trying things one at a time and determining the solution? Why do that when I can panic, and do all the things?

It's really hard to think of the future when your future is becoming homeless unless the provincial housing registry magically finds a place for you. In the bank today I'm seeing everywhere "let's talk about your five year plan" dude my plans end on March 31st when I lose my home.

Oh yes, it's the PARENTS I'm worried about and not the millions of children growing up being raised knowing they could die at any second. Those poor parents. And not the children who are legitimately in harm's way.

I'm really just filling my last months in my home with playing video games because I can't cope with the fact my home is being taken away so a 10 year old can have an entire suite to himself. Can't pack, can't imagine another home because rent is $2100 a month and I make... $2100 a month.

Rimworld hates me it always sends huge multi entrance invasions when someone is giving birth. 😵‍💫 Also apparently it's impossible to hit people who are running with knives. Who knew?

So, I don't know how to use this platform, and I can't cross post my poetry, so... Start writing my qualms with life here instead? Facebook is starting to look X'y.
