No matter what is happening in your life, it can always get worse. ☹️

wood sorrel everywhere! 🌸 #bloomscrolling

Setting up a new computer is SO much fun. Every website I visit now is like "OMG I don't know you, please log in/enter passcodes/validate with 2 factor ID". 😬

Dear Manager: 1. I don't believe it, there she goes again 2. She's tidied up and I can't find anything 3. All my tubes and wires and careful notes, and antiquated notions 4. But it's poetry in motion when she turned her eyes to me

YALL. THIS IS GREAT. IT IS A REAL THING THAT WORKS AND I JUST BORROWED A BOOK WITH IT. *hugs my Libby app*

Fables really had me believing people would be out here learning the error of their ways from doing bad things

Feeling much better mentally. I doubt it will last, but I'll appreciate it while I have it.

It looks like all of the Discworld ebooks are on sale for $2 -- this is on Amazon and Kobo, at least. Take advantage of this if you can!

Yeah, clicking those trending topics was a mistake.

This is Zero. She's the world's first herding dog with a work-from-home gig. 14/10

Cached US Kindle giveaway, and *good timing random book picker*: 10 copies of Terry Pratchett's REAPER MAN, the story of a dedicated worker fired from his job by know-nothing bean counters more interested in ideology than a functioning universe. #KindleBookGiveaway #GNUTerryPratchett

Another day, more words added to the mute list. (I'd like to be informed but protecting my mental health takes priority right now.)

I know it's going to get easier someday, but damn, it's hard right now. πŸ˜”

I do! (I feel like she's one of the few Congresscritters actually fighting for our rights.)

No lies detected.

Well, at least I spotted my mistake *before* I emailed the client. :::sigh:::

Florida friends: here's a great opportunity to change our country. LITERALLY change our country toward good.

2017-2018 flu is what killed my dad. Please, get your flu shots, take precautions. I don't wish what happened to my family on anyone.

There's a reason the thing that made the Black Panthers so dangerous in the eyes of the FBI wasn't their open carry advocacy, but their free breakfast program. People remember who helped them before anything else. Hell, I'm an apostate, but that was Christ's model. Feed the hungry. THEN preach.

So what are we doing to survive the horrors today?
