I hope you recover quickly, Katie, and that you can get some good rest - I'm sure it will help if you can/do.

It's not tops, but it's not bottom! Itt is more than meaty enough for me to play The Sims and all the other games I love. It's a black / tempered glass case with lots of RGB lighting - to go w/ all matching peripherals.

Crossing fingers and hoping for answers for you. 🤞🙏💗

I'm so happy for you, and trust me when I say I know the elation!

I've been gone for ages because my PC broke down and was entirely unable to be repaired. I finally got a new one for my birthday 3 days ago, and I've been SO thrilled.

Congrats again, genuinely thrilled for you!

Rumors of my demise may be greatly exaggerated.

I either can not focus because there's too many things and even if they have clear priorities (x is due tomorrow, y is due in a week, etc), I can't figure out how to start, OR, I hyper-focus on one thing (regardless of lowness of priority) to the exclusion of ALL other things, incl. self-care. 🫠

Today, out of the blue maybe just when I needed it most, a friend said to me:

"Love you. You are a total package human being."

It might be the nicest thing I've ever had anyone say to me.

Having literally just seen a teacher w/ a logo design side hustle be told that her work & her effort was "basically worthless in the era of AI," I'm even MORE anti-AI than I was 10 minutes ago.

Oh thank you! "The email will not find me if I stay still and do nothing" really gave me a huge grin, and is so relatable! 😆 Such great little things to make you smile! 😀

How cool! Hope they *both* have fabulous birthdays! 🫶

Thank you! I'm laughing less than a minute in! 😂

Thank you, Andie. ♥

I've also started a conversation with my doctor & therapist... and have appts soon! It helps in the meantime to see examples of joy though, if that makes sense!

Hope your pupper has the best 7th bday next month & wishing her many more, too!

What a cutie! I can see why your dog brings you joy! 🐾😍

Could you do me a favor, if you see this post? Could you please share something that brings you joy?

I'm struggling right now: emotionally & physically, and while I am most assuredly striving to count my own blessings, it would help me to see/know what uplifts YOU, too. ♥

They do look an awful lot alike! Especially when my boy is in more natural light. He's that same pale kind of ginger, when the light doesn't make him look extra orange! 😊

Hope you had good sleeps - you and your ginger fatass - from me and my ginger fatass. ♥

A legend died today.

In his memory, how about a heartwarming heme #skeetorial? #hemesky #nerdalert

Today the world lost the man with the "golden arm"

I'm bone-tired of the narrative that people who suffer are always meant to shoulder the blame for their suffering, too.

... perhaps consider that in sharing explicit and gory details of traumatic events in your stories may only "feed" the desires of some individuals, and maybe you don't need to do that. Maybe some things aren't worth "feeding." 6/6

I guess, what I'm saying in short is just this: a) always, always, always provide content warnings if possible, and b) sometimes alluding to traumatic events is equally or more effective than describing them explicitly and uh... the last bit, might be a doozy but... c) ... 5/

And from an artistic standpoint, even, sometimes leaving the reader to draw their own conclusions about the severity is viable, not only in terms of how far their imaginations go, but also in terms of where their imaginations will *safely* take them, too. (Hope I'm making sense here). 4/

... but there are ways and means to tell a story, even one that involves traumatic events, w/o resorting to getting into the explicitly graphic and gory details. And it's certainly not necessary for storytelling purposes to involve visual depictions of those types of details. 3/

I believe (good) storytelling requires conflict (and conflict resolution). I believe that "trauma" as a term is actually a very broad one, and that positive experiences AND traumas shape people, impact personalities, and are part of the "drive" of stories... 2/

I've been seriously ill for quite some time... but came back to the odd commentary here & there about sims stories featuring some very graphic depiction of disturbing content? IDK what all went down, and that's okay, I don't need to, but what I do want to say is: 1/

It's not so much difficult to share the day for me, but as a Pisces, I won't date another Pisces. That's too much fish for any one person. 😂

I am begging you now more than ever that while you’re advocating for trans rights (as you should) please don’t forget about intersex people. We’re impacted the exact same by the same legislation, we are losing our rights and healthcare, the only difference is no one will even acknowledge we exist

In the year of 2055 we will get TS3 re-release with no Katy Perry SP 😂
