There are regretful parents who fantasize about my quiet, minimalist life.

I need to remember that when I'm disappointed I haven't realized my own dreams.

I know my worth and I know that it's not monetary. It's transcendental.

Can some people stop acting like not having kids is a tragedy?
My bills are lower, my sleep is uninterrupted, and my peace is priceless.
You can keep the “miracle of life” — I’ll take the miracle of silence. 😌

Some people panic when they’re alone. Like, being solo means something’s broken. It doesn’t.
You can love being with someone and still know that your world doesn't end if it's just you.
A table for one is still a table.
A Saturday morning alone is still a life.
You're allowed to be your own home! 🖤

The beauty lies in these women alive
in their final acts of choice,
in taking their lives into their own hands.
The sorrow lies in a slowing heart
at only one choice believed remaining,
in the deep darkness of unconscious ground.

Screenshot from the language learning app Duolingo, with the sentence in Finnish, "Minä olen velho" correctly translated to the English sentence, "I am a wizard."

I haven't learned numbers or colors yet, but Duolingo has decided it's prudent to teach me how to say I Am A Wizard.

Why you gotta out me like that, Duo?

We Must Preserve The Earth's Dwindling Resources For My Five Children As we move into the 21st century, it is our responsibility to think of the future of the earth—not for ourselves, but for those who will inherit what my husband and I leave behind when we’re gone. If ...

"If we do not join together and do what’s best for this, our only planet, there may not be an environment left in which my five children, and their 25 children’s 125 children, can grow up and raise large upper-middle-class families of their own."

If you hate birds, and wish or enact harm on birds — any bird, geese and seagulls too —

then I hate you and think you're a piece of shit.

There's no such thing as a nuisance animal. We're the ones that displaced them with our lives of convenience and malice.

Twilight drips through the window shade
side gap to interplay squid ink and 10K gold
chiaroscuro across cold cast bronze.
What is the carat weight of a star?

To see her living blink would blind me....

The Great Resegregation The Trump administration’s attacks on DEI are aimed at reversing the civil-rights movement.

“That is why Trumpists are so focused on “ending DEI” in the federal workforce. They see anti-discrimination and inclusion as a ladder of upward mobility for people they do not believe should have one.”

Long read, but worth it if you're a bird lover, linguist, amateur historian, or general nature lover. So much of this article reflects my joys.

"'I refuse to let my body be treated as currency by an administration that only sees value in my ability to procreate,' Pohutsky said."

Exactly. 💯

"[Pohutsky] responded to Shapiro, saying 'I think the broken people are the ones who are personally aggrieved by my personal health care decision.'"

PREACH. 🙌

I don't want children the way someone wouldn't want mealworms for a snack.

It doesn't even register in my brain as an option, and when/if it's offered, I'm disgusted. Though in many places, it's commonplace.

The only way to ease the hurt of jealousy is to justify their own choices (that they didn't know they were making until it was too late) by tearing her down in order to feel superior, otherwise known as playground bullying.

Society loves to de-sex women who fail to produce the fruit of said sex. She's a lesbian, AMAB, asexual, undesirable crone, unattractive to men.

Bird! A blue jay. Sitting on a bent branch of a dogwood tree, the branch mounded with snow, the dappling of late day sunlight behind. The blue jay is in the left of frame, facing right, its tuft slicked back and catching the golden light. In its mouth -- er, it's beak, is the beak its mouth, or is the mouth inside the beak okay never mind whatever -- IN THE BEAK is a peanut. A treasure. A prize. A little snack. The blue jay looks quite pleased at what it is found in the snow -- taken before a squirrel could get it. Photo by me, Chuck Wendig

ANYWAY, sorry, here's a bird. Pause and regard the bird. The bird is happy, for the bird has found a peanut. May we all find the small joy of finding a tasty snack today.
