Hey everyone, youโ€™ve been asking me to run for office for a while, so guess what?

Iโ€™m running for California State Assembly!

Now, I donโ€™t like asking for money, but we gotta pay for this somehow, and if everyone throws in $7 weโ€™ll have the resources to run one hell of a race, so, uh, do the thing.

Spotify on random is like a drunk teenager after a breakup who keeps listening to the same song over and over again because it's "our song".

If you survived abuse as a child and are having a hard time with the general reaction to the latest "most people get away with abusing kids" scandal that's dominating the news please know that you're not alone, your feelings are valid, and that I'm pulling for you.

We have to stick together.

Finally got a chance to watch Scott's amazing talk here. Not gonna lie, I got choked up a number of times. A lot of parallels both in lived experiences and opinions. Thank you Scott - this is important and people need to hear this.

It's 9:36 PM Eastern and I'm glad you're alive.

Thanks for being here with us.

It's been a lot but we can bear it easier together than apart.

You are in my thoughts more than you realize.

Inuit-owned coffee company open for business in Cambridge Bay | CBC News On Sunday, the community of Cambridge Bay got to taste and buy coffee from their own coffee company for the very first time.

Today I'm promoting Kaapittiaq.

It's a business owned by the Kitikmeot Heritage Society run by elders in Cambridge Bay. The beans are sourced from direct trade with Indigenous farmers in Peru. Profits go to the Heritage Society itself. It's good coffee!

today is a milestone for me.

for the first time in at least 2 years, i woke up at ~4:45am like I do every day... and somehow was able to fall asleep again and woke up at ~6:30am.

is this sleeping in? feels nice but I almost feel like I lost a huge part of my day... weird.

Glad to see I'm not the only one! :D
I think I was 13 when I decided high school was not my thing and enrolled in UAS-K. One of the things you got when you enrolled in a math class was access to the VAX - and to bitnet and usenet. Things went down hill from there. (jk I love my weird old servers)

hey, this is fucking unconscionable.

these are human beings, and every single us resident should be furious that the government is defunding medicaid to allocate more money to the kidnappers stealing our community members and making it unsafe for friends in other countries to visit us.
