maybe quitting major social media sites during a time where I also can't play videogames wasn't the best idea for my mental health

LETS GET READY TO DRAAAAAAW for charity

Achievement unlocked: successfully sharpened a bread knife that was blunt and damaged after 10+ years of not being sharpened. I got a whole set of tools to also sharpen my other blunt knives. 🔪✨️ Downside: nicked my fingers twice 😭

Spread the word: transworldexpress.org aims to bring US citizens info about immigration routes and #trans safety/healthcare elsewhere. I'm contributing from the Netherlands, it's healing to turn my despair into action from afar. More help for country-specific and overarching topics always welcome!

Drawtectives: Midnight Alley intro! Thank you to @dilfosaur.bsky.social for doing the best parts of this whole thing! If you want to join on this silly DnD-esq improv mystery show, you don't need to watch the previous seasons at all and I encourage you to jump on in! www.tumblr.com/julialepetit...

I am no longer accepting the argument "there are bigger problems than this!" unless you are personally working to stop the ultimate Heat Death of the Universe.

i can't believe the US abolished gender, that's so woke

Please boost for visibility to trans and other folks in the US who might need this - a wiki gathering information on possible ways out to different countries: transworldexpress.org See also their Mastodon post: milliways.social/@transworlde...

it's been over a week since i quit FB + IG and I'll be real, it sucks. I'm missing a ton of updates from friends and family, I don't feel motivated to post in new places that barely have my old circle, and I can't even view IG content others linked without logging in. I hope I can stick with it.

Not working full-time has made me realize how hard it really is to manage the bare minimum of like, eating, sleeping, exercising, cleaning, and other basic responsibilities. No wonder my health plummeted so hard while I was working full-time — I literally didn't have time to take care of myself.

We've got a new episode of Drawtectives premiering today at 1pm ET! Come hang out and watch us try to solve the mystery! youtu.be/Fu6gnd_lb50

@drawfeeshow.com Super happy with my new merch! It's so comfy AND cool!

Burnout by Emily Nagoski talks about this - it helps to bring the nervous system back from the fight/flight levels of stress. Being able to rebalance/recharge makes all of those systems more effective. Even in the thick of a bad situation, it’s a valuable tool to keep going (gallows humor, anyone?)

sometimes when you hang out with a cat it's like holy fuck. that's a animal. and it's just in here. in my house

Been awake since 7am and still not tired. With the help of 5mg melatonin, I went to bed around 1am. Did I do it?? Is my sleeping pattern slowly being fixed? A few more nights like that and I might actually start feeling okay again

I deactivated my FB and IG accounts today. I still need WhatsApp since some essential groups and people aren't moving, and deleting Meta would brick my Quest 2. Not ready to delete yet, though. Let's see how I cope, first.

feels pretty relevant

Social media seem less fun and determined by algorithms and politics today. Have we reached the end of social media, and what's next? Read my new blog entry here and find out...! nicollelamerichs.com/2025/02/01/h... #platforms #socialmedia

A great write-up by @nicolleness.bsky.social about social media today. nicollelamerichs.com/2025/02/01/h...

wild to see nobody in public transport with a mask on, despite the massive flu wave and so many being sick. guess we collectively learned nothing 🙃

trying to move my IG to Pixelfed, but multiple images show up as black squares. Guess they do need to polish out the major bugs...
