None of us can be sure what will “work.” You try multiple things and find your way in. Read some histories of the Civil Rights Movement by those who participated. They were never “sure” of what would work. Some campaigns fizzled out. But persistence, creativity, determination, and focus were key.

Unlike on TV, most doctors do not want to run a battery of tests. If your bloodwork comes back normal then they diagnose you as fat, crazy, or drug seeking.

So the vaccine side effects have passed, unfortunately, it didn't take fibro with it. I'm now on day three of the return of my ADHD meds after an over five-year absence (long story). Being properly medicated is self-care. Suck it RFK Jr, jerkwad.

I also have New Normal Fear, the feeling while in flare that it's not a flare but the new permanent level of your illness.

Tales of #ADHD My partner and I are at the grocery having a conversation about personality traits when I notice a can of soda that reminded me of a news story I read. Me (suddenly): Did you know that soda is made in the state? But they just sold to some big name I don't remember" (1/2)

I wonder if all these companies and organizations quickly dumping DEI policies were this quick in adopting them. Or are they just glad now to have an excuse not to have them.

Have you decided what category of media/ephemera you are going to try and preserve? Yes I know there are places like archive.org and the Library of Congress that do a wonderful job. But they are limited (IIRC) by the public domain. Also, we are dependent on the internet to be able to access it.

Seriously how long should I have to mark myself as divorced when filling out forms? I've been divorced now for four times longer than I was married. Hell I haven't seen him in person for over a decade. Am I officially single now?

On one hand, I wish I could get a peek into the far future to see how this time period will be taught in schools. On the other hand, I don't because either there won't be a future or we'll still be in the Trump dynasty with President Barron or some other depressing shit.

I think people who consistently shit on Red states (even though there are a lot of us Blue voters in that state) are beginning to understand what it's like to have someone represent you (the mango Mussolini) that you in no way support or endorse but people (the world) treat you like you do.

Vaccines are great (I got the Shingles and Pneumonia ones yesterday) but they really should advise you not to plan anything the next day while your immune system pushes through upgrades.

I swear there must be a secret betting pool in state legislatures to see who can come up with the stupidest or most batshit bill proposals. Extra points for each media outlet that interviews you about said proposal.

#fibromyalgia doesn't care that you have things to do, or that you are sick and tired of being a failure. The weather continuing to bounce between snow and rain isn't helping. And it's hard for people to understand you are not exaggerating when you say that every single part of your body hurts.

I've been doing a lot of crocheting lately. The problem is I have nothing to show for it. I've done so much frogging I might as well be singing "Hello my baby, hello my darling." Nothing feels right. A few rows into it I hate it and pull it out and start something else. #crochet

We are the archives now. We are the historians & storytellers. Pick a threatened topic dear to your heart. Read what is left. Learn. Use VPNs to access material if that becomes necessary Record information online & off. Memorize the stories. Tell others, especially the young. Be the Bard.

I don't know why but I've been finding comfort in apocalypse radio audio dramas lately. Fictional cataclysmic events (natural, war, aliens, disease, etc.) told from the perspective of a DJ broadcasting to whoever is left. It's survival without the rose-colored glasses but still, they survive.

Dear media, No, Trump isn’t “signaling” that he “might” ignore the courts. He. Is. Ignoring. The. Fucking. Courts. The end. Do your damn job.

Trump just suspended enforcement of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, a key anti-bribery law signed by Carter in 1977. For 50 years, it stopped corporations from bribing foreign officials. Now, Trump is letting corruption run wild.
