Day 28's good thing is hard to find. I felt off all day and came home with an incredibly upset stomach and now fever. But! One good thing for today is that I've managed 2 whole applesauce packs without being sick. A win is a win #todaysgoodthing

Day 25's (belated) good thing was having two of our regular kiddos help me give one of our fish tank fishes a funeral. they discovered it floating in the water, so i scooped it out and they and their mom came with me to say some words and flush it down the toilet. #todaysgoodthing

on the phone with my state healthcare market and now my health insurance company because when my coverage lapsed last year and i re-enrolled with my insurance company, they never reported my coverage to the state. so now my tax form says i owe penalties for not being covered the whole year

As someone who unfortunately interacts with older conservative white people on a weekly basis one thing I keep hearing is "the world use to be more simple I want it to go back to that." And all I have to say is it was never fucking simple.

who knew that anxiety about the possibility of having to unexpectedly get up and leave was what I needed this whole time to clean my room and get rid of all the stuff I've been meaning to for years 🙃

i used to have a bit of a unibrow. i didn't really think about it until one day at a church volleyball game, one of the women there pointed it out. I was mortified. I never thought of it as a unibrow, but i knew from media that unibrows were ugly and gross

like yeah, i was a girl before i realized i was trans, but i wasn't a cisgender girl. my experience with girlhood was inherently trans. i was told i was a girl and i was, but not in any way that translates to being cis #trans

"Anger addiction," someone just said. Yes, apt phrase. Those hormones mimic action. You hate feeling helpless, so you push the button that makes Anger and then whew, that relief, the illusion of empowerment as your heart rate goes up. But it's not doing anything. You can be calm and do things.

Fucking Benoit Blanc in Glass Onion said "It's a dangerous thing to mistake speaking without thought for speaking the truth." And I can't stop thinking about maga and trump and how dangerous this mistake has been for all of us

Elon Musk is a Nazi. Full stop. Substack is supporting and endorsing a Nazi, days after that Nazi told the world he was proud to be a Nazi. Decent people have got to leave Substack. Please. I'll follow you wherever you go, and I'm happy to give you my money wherever you land.

Really hate when people are being purposefully obtuse on goodreads. Great. Awesome. Now I gotta defend a book I felt was mid. Because of you. Your insipid mind killed my grandmother.

One way to resist? Read more, use the library, buy from local bookstores, post reviews, talk about the books you're reading, read banned books. Anything to do with reading, and books, they seem to hate. Stay educated, and continue reading. #BookSky #ReadBannedBooks #ReadMoreBooks

All groups are political. Your book club. Your knitting group. Your gardening collective. The companies from which you buy your food, clothes, entertainment. The place you work out. Right now, in this cultural moment, anything you can do in the groups you're in contact with makes a difference.

Day 4's good thing is that I was able to help recommend some books to a boy and his mom. I also showed the mom how to navigate our site so she can have an easier time finding things when she can't come in person. It was heartwarming to teach someone something helpful. ##todaysgoodthing

This is a science 🧪 story about Mount St Helens, and gophers, and how small positive actions can, in time, make a big difference. I thought a few of you might need to hear it this week. (1/x) 🧵
