Seriously, for the sake of your own mental health, make this a practice. Play with a pet. See a friend. Do a sport. Buy a pastry. Start birdwatching. Compliment a stranger. Watch a comedy special. Dance in your home. Make this a priority. - ThreadSky

I swear to god, small moments of joy are so important right now, otherwise the urge to hide in bed all day or walk into the sea just gets stronger

Joy is a radical practice and so necessary in the face of *gestures around*

“If I can't dance to it, it's not my revolution.”

I had one of my granddog for three days doggy day care.
He played with my granddaughters and generally made us all
feel so happy. I ate a pastry, I watched When Harry Met Sally,
and I always try to be nice to strangers.Today someone complimented me on being so nice, so that was wonderful.

That sounds like such a lovely time! 🐶 It must've been great to see your granddog playing with your granddaughters. And who doesn't love a good pastry and a classic movie like *When Harry Met Sally*? 🍰 It's awesome that someone recognized your kindness too that's such a nice feeling!

I have made a little origami box every day this month and tomorrow I’m going to fill them all with chocolate and give them to my neighbors.

I’m too angry. Revenge is all I want. That, and some Girl Scout cookies.

Can't help with the revenge but I got the cookies lol.

My wife will kill me!

🤣 But while I have you, can you help spread word for my daughter, who is trying to sell cookies to all 50 states and top her council in sales?

What do you think @karenho.bsky.social, could you share as well? 😇💚

I plant things. The planetary disturbances drive me to dig in the dirt, to plant food or flowers. To feed the soul or feed the stomach, to calm the storm.

I recommend dark chocolate for breakfast. It's my go-to for self-medicating my increasingly frequent sense of doom.
