We still have to finish paying rent, just got a rude reminder from one of the owners. It's sad when being hospitalized and worrying about staying alive is a nice vacation from being worried and stressed about staying housed and alive. Yay 'Murica! *note caustic sarcasm* ko-fi.com/johnniejae/g...

Artists need to boycott the Kennedy center. Of course, I'm especially bitter considering they dropped the Decolonized Beatz Indigenous World Pride event. It's not so much they dropped it, but that folks keep refusing to put up any kind of fight at all against this tyranny.

I have a lot of new followers that are following Lakota Man. Please block him and uplift legit Indigenous voices - there are Bsky feeds out there (Indigisky, indigiskeeters) that have some amazing Indigenous voices and perspectives to learn from. This guy isn't it.

I lost my mask extender and after a few days in the hospital, my ears are raw as hell. The one thing I appreciate the most about my hospital is that for the most part, they mask and if you ask, they mask and don't question why you are masking.

No, the mail is not “the least of our worries.” It’s a fucking important worry. It is the only postal service that delivers to every address. They are only provider of complete mail services for overseas military bases and provide free overseas PO boxes. They help prepare passport apps. Ship meds…
