Tonight is a good night to decide you’re pretty great. Specially if you’ve been wondering if it’s true. Cause you are. Pretty great. So take your meds, have some water, moisturize your face and feet and love your great big best self.

You made it all the way through today! And you look great doing it! Double check real quick: did your meds get taken and your water get drunken? Can you drink MORE water? I knew you could do it!

Simcha’s Big Adventure: Howdy Pard-Nas! That’s a neat way to say hi friends, I bet you didn’t knowed that. I’ve been really busy and the Hoomom introduced me to loads new stuffs. A few nights ago the hoomom had another meeeeegraine and I really didn’t wanna sleep in the crate 1/6

I have it on good authority that you’re doing way better than you think. Full stop. You deserve the grace you give to other people. But also you need to take your meds and remember some water. You look thirsty. And great.

hi! are you cis? did you see this? the senate wants to move the president’s anti-trans sports ban closer to being a law monday. democratic senators need to know fucking NYT opinion writers don’t speak for you & you think trans people’s civil rights *matter.* tap the quoted thread. please call.

Mindful March (new thing I just made up) Day One: today I’m making a list of all the projects around my house —this includes my work space— that I’ve been putting off or started and set aside, and I’m going to pick one to work on. Join me if you like! We’re getting things done!

Friendly reminder that if you managed to avoid being a jerk today you are winning. Good job you! Now go for gold and take your meds and have some water. Moisturize your face. Oh and give your pet a treat. That last one isn’t optional.

Just because you didn’t get everything you wanted done doesn’t mean today was bad. You got SOME things done. And I bet you took your meds. Maybe even had some water. That’s great!

I am so proud of you, you are going to do something really impressive tomorrow, I just know it! Did you remember your meds today? I actually forgot one so I just had to take care of that. Make sure you have some water with dinner, Kay? For fun.

If you’re having a tough day, remember if you do just one thing you need to do you’re winning. Take your meds? One thing. Water? One thing. Moisturize? One thing. All three? Look at you doing three things during a rough day! I’m so proud of you!

In a world that hard edges, being soft is punk as fuck. You’re allowed to be vulnerable and kind to other people and most importantly yourself. Remember your meds. Have some water. Moisturize something. You’re loved.

Did you spend the day on the couch with the nausea because your sinuses are effed too? No? Lucky. I hope you remembered your meds and had some water and moisturized while you were out there living your best life!

I hope your day was Living Single levels of fun, community, and purpose. Also I hope you remembered your meds and water and moisturized something. I keep telling you nobody likes ashy.

I hope your day felt as good as a puppy attacking a rain boot. That’s pretty good, just FYI. Also I hope you took your meds and had some water and moisturized something!

Today was so much better than yesterday. Which is a great reminder that moods change all the time and it’s okay to not be okay. That said, I hope you had a good day too and you remembered your meds and had some water! I’m proud of you.

I’m feeling hopeless and I know it’s b/c I’m on day two of a migraine with new snow outside so I feel trapped & I’m overstimulated which I can’t explain to the puppy who craves attention, but it’s rough. Take your meds while they’re legal.

Simcha’s Big Adventure: hidey hi friends! I hoped you missed me! It’s been a busy coupla weeks and the Hoomom keeps talking about something called a grooming cause she says my hairs is too shaggy. But I like my hairs shaggy—it makes me look feisty. 1/6

I hope you did one thing today that brought you joy. The little kid kind of absolute happy. And if you didn’t I hope you remembered that you’re loved. Take your meds. Have some water. We need you in the world.

A thing I wish I could teach people is that the vast majority of very rich people are deeply stupid. They did not get where they are because of ingenuity or talent. They got there because of compound interest on hereditary wealth and being tax cheats.

Just cause you get to make your own choices doesn’t mean you have to be happy about every choice you make. Sometimes it’s rough and you are allowed to be annoyed. But remember your meds. Have some water. Moisturize your ass or it’ll chap.

Can you do something tonight so future you will thank you? If you have a long weekend, that could just be remembering to unset your alarm for tomorrow. If not, then maybe SET your alarm. Also take your meds, have some water.

Time will put your enemies in the ground. Take your meds, have some water, and moisturize so you look amazing dancing on their grave.

There is always something you can do to gum up the works of fascism. A story. Claude Cahun. The queer nonbinary French-Jewish photographer. Nazis conquered France, were training soldiers on Jersey, where Cahun lived w/their partner, Marcel Moore. They did disinfo & morale smashing via Surrealism.

Don’t forget your meds, have some water, moisturize, and do something to show you, you love you!

Scoop: The databases powering DOGE.gov are insecure, and people outside the government have already pushed their own updates to the site to prove it: www.404media.co/anyone-can-p...

Something something you’re pretty great, take care of yourself. Im not in the best headspace but I care about you and want you to take care of yourself. Remember your meds, have some water, moisturize something. Not everything sucks.

Folks outside the United States - if you want to help the Americans who didn’t vote for this nightmare, please petition your governments to place their most severe sanctions on Elon Musk and all his companies

Today was better because you were in it. I said what I said. And we’re excited you’re going to be in tomorrow too, so set yourself up for success and take your meds, maybe put some water in your Stanley and actually drink it, and moisturize something ashy.

What was your best part about today? Was it that you remembered your meds? I’ll bet you had plenty of water too, you know this game!

You deserve a place to be soft in a hard world. Yes, that’s an excuse to buy that stuffie if you need it. Also possibly to eat the cheesecake. However you interpret. Also remember your meds. Have some water. Moisturize somethin’.

Simcha’s Big Adventure: hi everbody, it’s me, Simcha Bagel! Well it’s been an vent’ful weekend, okay? The Hoomom hasn’t been feeling to good, not cause of the ‘cussion, cause of the ooterus, which I don’t know what that is but she says I prob’ly don’t have one which is a relief. 1/3

Hey now, don’t go thinking moods are forever. Moods are like farts—they pass fast. Though if there’s lumps that’s not a mood or a fart. Get that checked. Oh and hey take your meds. Moisturize something and have some water you’re dehydrated, I bet.

It’s not the end of the world if you have to take a day because your body says “no”. But you should still take care of yourself. So remember your meds. Have some water. Moisturize before bed. Tomorrow is a new day.
