Feel free to alter and use this image in any way you wish- stickers, posters, fliers, etc.

An illustration of a common loon, the state bird of minnesota, attacking a bald eagle. The eagle has a deceased loon chick clutched in its talons. The illustration is a reference to a real life incident where a bald eagle was found dead of a stab wound to the heart that matched a loon's sharp beak, next to a dead loon chick. The text below reads JUSTICE with ICE in red and crossed out.

been thinking a lot recently about that story of the bald eagle found dead, next to the body of a loon chick, with a hole in its heart the size and shape of a loon's beak

An image of Samwise Gamgee - the real OG - from the LOTR movies. "I know. It's all wrong. By rights we shouldn't even be here. But we are. It's like in the great stories, Mr. Frodo. The ones that really mattered. Full of darkness and danger, they were. And sometimes you didn't want to know the end. Because how could the end be happy? How could the world go back to the way it was when so much bad had happened? But in the end, it's only a passing thing, this shadow. Even darkness must pass. A new day will come. And when the sun shines it will shine out the clearer. Those were the stories that stayed with you. That meant something, even if you were too small to understand why. But I think, Mr. Frodo, I do understand. I know now. Folk in those stories had lots of chances of turning back, only they didn't. They kept going. Because they were holding on to something." ~Samwise Gamgee

It is getting harder to see it these days, but I always hold on to this quote from Samwise in LOTR: "There's some good in this world, Mr. Frodo, and it's worth fighting for."

crazy that the website that I randomly decided to put together at 10AM yesterday has had over 25k unique visitors in 24 hours.

please keep sharing with your networks.

This may sound stupid but it's evidenced-based.

If you're inadvertently exposed to something traumatic and you're able, take some time to play Tetris.

There is a known association between playing Tetris post-exposure and a reduction in risk of PTSD and distress severity.

(We don't know why yet.)

I feel called out......... 🦐

I thought I was on the mend but I have, unfortunately, been made to realize that my lactose intolerance has become significantly more severe. It is unclear if its beccause of the ibs or the ibs is because of the lactose but either way, rip my ability to eat dairy even with lactaid

exhausted huddled at the bar with a bottle and a shotglass but its extra strength pepto bismol*

*I am following dosage instructions, pepto can infact be toxic in large enough quantities

ibs is just so much fun. love my intestines trying to become my outestines

a badly done edit of the 'oh ariana we're really in it now' meme with Nigel Marven's ingame portrait from Prehistoric Kingdom that says 'oh Nigel we're really in it now'

Life may have been kicking me in the dick on every level emotional, mental, and physical recently
But
Prehistoric Kingdom has finally given me some proper tutorials so at least I now have a new comfort game

Your timeline needs the cleansing energy of a video where it seems like something bad is going to happen but then it's actually just two lil friends having a nice lil time

A motivational poster with a woman spreading her arms wide while standing in a cornfield. The motivational text says "When I don't post about current affairs it's only because I don't have anything legal to say."

X salvage continued, had to save this banger from @molleindustria.org

absolutely harrowing 15 mins of loosing my glasses and realizing just how horrifically visually impaired I am without them

a picture of the same op from the neck down, with the same black cat asleep in his arm like a baby

this is not even remotely an exaggeration too. If anything, its an understatement

a quick drawing of the original poster looking tired, sitting down, with a small black cat asleep in his arms. The text reads "Me, wanting to do literally anything" with an arrow to the original poster, and "the tiniest sleepiest sweetest little snuggle baby kitty who says no" with an arrow pointing to the cat

this has been a not insignificant amount of my life recently

Legolas in a party hat shooting a glass of chmpagne and saying "happy new year, sluts"
