Yep. That tracks. I’d still be there if I had the energy. 💜💛💚 #fibromyalgia sucks.

This used to be my pinned tweet on Twitter back in the first time around. I hate that I’m pulling it back out again because we’ve learned nothing in nearly a decade. I’m tired y’all. #speakup #standforsomething It’s not too late. press.uchicago.edu/Misc/Chicago...

One of the struggles with #neurodivergence is realizing there isn’t a one size fits all solution. For some people it’s breaking things down into smaller tasks. Some people do great with lists while others don’t. Prioritizing is great when you can do it, but that’s not all the time. #adhd #cptsd

Gentle reminder that things like "you're over reacting" "It's not a big deal" "You are freaking out over nothing" over genuine distress is psychological warfare and gaslighting. It is used to undermine the individual and make them doubt their resolve and emotions.

I will remind folks every day for as long as it takes until working class Americans hear it and act: Elon Musk called you, me, your grandma, little children, veterans, disabled folks, farmers, ALL OF US "the parasite class". Everything they're doing is to make us suffer and die. It's eugenics.

It amazes me how many people in my rural area were blasting Hamilton songs and wearing merch only to trade it for red hats a few years later. #medialiteracy #immigration #nostalgia #2010s music.apple.com/us/album/imm...

One of the hardest things with #chronicillness is recognizing your limits and becoming okay with them. You are okay as you are. It’s finally starting to warm up and that helps with my #fibromyalgia flares. I try to plan light on days that are cold and stormy. If it’s warm I take advantage of it.

One minute #journaling or #meditation prompt: What’s the first word that comes to mind without stopping to think about it? What does that word mean to you? How does it relate to your past, your present, and your future? Keeping it short can help with overthinking. #keepwriting

Happy Saturday! If you can try to take a moment to do something that grounds you. Your mind can be your greatest resource or your worst enemy. Even five minutes to reset can make a difference. #chronicillness #cptsd #fibromyalgia

If you are a survivor or you know a survivor of abuse you need to see this. This is why trauma survivors struggle to survive even after escaping abuse. You need to understand these are the people running this country. Both sides are not the same. #trauma #capitalism youtube.com/shorts/Km7Xe...

The most improvement I’ve seen in life was when I stopped buying into the “daily” trends. Gamification is a tactic used in tech to lock people in. Learning to be ok with skipping things some days because you need that energy somewhere else is important. #selfcare #fibromyalgia #mentalhealth

One of the things people don’t understand about #trauma is that it steals your voice. And not in a metaphorical sense. It becomes nearly impossible to communicate what’s wrong when trauma is triggered. Make sure you have a plan before and check on your loved ones when they are quiet. #selfcare

Today my intrusive thoughts said stay in bed, hide from everyone, can’t trust them or get up, throw all of the seeds I’ve started out into the cold because none of it matters. I chose to work on revamping my journaling meetings to help other #CPTSD and #traumasurvivors. We are not alone.

I’ve gotten caught in this feeling of chasing the excitement of old WoW, Slashdot, old Twitter, old forums. It’s just so hard to ever shake the dread of #capitalism and allow myself to feel excited and attach to things anymore. #nostalgia #latestagecapitalism youtube.com/watch?v=mwIY...

I’m struggling with sleep lately. I think sometimes it’s like the worst parts of #fibromyalgia and #adhd tangle up and nothing seems to help.

Going #nobuy or #lowbuy to protest. Consider buying books, especially books at risk of bans. Buy garden supplies and hone goods that lower your food costs. Support local businesses and artists. #votewithyourwallet

Spending Blackout on Feb 28th. This is the best way to get the message out. Pausing all discretionary spending indefinitely helps too, especially tech spending. Vote with your wallet until you can vote at the polls. #notmypresident

I hate nighttime tornadoes. Radar has been really ugly tonight.

With football season over my area moves to our other season: Is the weather going to try to end us? (tornado edition) Tuning into my radar app just in case.

Winter always wears me down but as soon as the weather warms up a little I feel like I start to come back to life. This winter has been especially hard, so hopefully spring will be even more beautiful. 🪴✨ #fibromyalgia #chronicillness
