I’m in December 18, 1860, going through each day of news during the secession crisis, and I can tell you that all of the same tactics and coping mechanisms you are trying now are being used by Northerners and none of them work. None. White people do not change.

For the people who may be on the fence: Happy to chat about my experience leading KY. Core leadership created a checklist of what to do, which helps keep priorities organized. A lot of us here already are kind and down to help you make it happen. #StandUpForScience

I hate being challenged; RSD sucks, but it's on me to manage. So when I unknowingly posted a hoax, I spent time reminding myself that the person who pointed it out doesn't hate me. But they challenged me again today, I spent so much time writing a response, & they deleted their comment. Sir. 😐

The state of Louisiana has decided to stop promoting mass vaccinations, & I'm sure my state is next. Folks here act like a flu shot comes from a weapon. I should have done this years ago, I know that, but it's time for a cute, reusable respirator. I could be out here looking like a sexy carpenter.

My dad and I have had maybe...one conversation a year for the past decade or so. He's still hanging around my mom's Facebook, saying she's in an echo chamber. He just commented to me on one of her posts that I'm also in one. Which, okay, whatever.

No one who hasn't shared or donated to this gofundme is allowed to talk about Disco Elysium ever again. I know! I'm poor too. I don't always eat either. A single dollar. One currency.

It took most of my shift for my brain to write up an "out of office" sign, tack it on my head, and peace out. I am a body operating on auto pilot, see you in four years, maybe? (See you tomorrow, remember to EAT despite fascism. I knew I should have had breakfast.)

There are very few elected officials who merit our support; AOC is one for the moment. I hope she stays so.

This morning, my brain decided to get real fixated on reading. I've been wanting to read again, but I often get distracted or feel guilty for being "lazy." So I was stoked my brain got on board! Unfortunately, all my brain wants is The Hunger Games. Psychic damage is inevitable today, apparently.

My appointment yesterday went well. Got out with a birth control prescription, picked that up today, we're gonna try that and revisit in a couple months. I'm slightly concerned that we're on such a conservative plan, but endo really is the worst and if all I need is birth control to manage, awesome.

Uterus has started the next battle. Doctor's appointment is tomorrow. Very worried, knowing I shouldn't expect much but really hoping for help. I don't know which worries me more, the pain or being dismissed. On the bright side, finally playing FFXVI with my partner and having a great time 💙

Going to the doctor in a month for endo cramps so severe I'm in tears, even after too many pain killers and so much weed. And who the fuck knows if they'll believe me, or if I'll even get help because birth control might not exist in two months 🙃 I hate it here.

I've realized that my Veilguard disappointment is tied up with election disappointment. I let myself believe Harris had a chance. She lost, & that was one of the longest days I've ever lived. Then this morning while cooking, I realized I finished Veilguard YESTERDAY. It's only been a day.

Well. I loved #Veilguard. And it's taught me a lot about how to criticize something I love without hating it. I'm so glad I played it. I'm gonna play it again! But damn did it drop the ball in so many ways.
