I feel conflicted. So much in the world going on right now that is incredibly frightening. Yet, here I am actually at a really solid point personally, having just reached a year of sobriety while also doing a lot of work in therapy. Iโ€™m thriving personally and professionally. Make it make sense. ๐Ÿคท๐Ÿปโ€โ™‚๏ธ

Iโ€™m used to taking care of myself. Have been since I moved out in 2008 and had to budget myself in the midst of the Great Recession.

More men need to live alone and take care of themselves first before they get into the dating pool. They also need to choose therapy en masse.

Thank you for saying say this for all the Dems like me in the back! She can do anything she damn well pleases. She looked relieved in that interview. She carried a pretty big burden trying to fight against all of this, IN 107 DAYS!

What she does next is entirely up to her. I will always love her!

I can recognize why sheโ€™s famous outside of the American Eagle ad. I can also recognize Iโ€™m neither her target audience nor the type of guy that would be attracted to her in the first place.

Also, advertising eugenics is a hard pass. I donโ€™t care how subliminal it is.

Performative Democrats are just Republicans in disguise. We as Democrats need to do better at voting in authentic candidates who wonโ€™t betray our interests as constituents.

Iโ€™m glad a week later that Gavin Newsom grew a damn spine and is doing his best for California and democracy.

This makes โ€œBrownie, youโ€™re doing a heck of a jobโ€ look tame.

Seriously, why do the days of Dubya looks somewhat intelligent compared to this? What world am I living in?

In case anyone needs a reminder of who I am:

I have dear friends in my life that are LGBTQIA+ and mean the world to me. We live in a very dark time where many Americans now have carte blanc to use their bigotry to violate basic rights of ๐Ÿณ๏ธโ€๐ŸŒˆ ๐Ÿณ๏ธโ€โšง๏ธ and other non hetero folk.

Oh this is definitely not your fault. Youโ€™re calling out what needs to be called out. Newsom isnโ€™t the only one either.

The only way the left has a chance of winning is to put people out there who are genuine in their convictions, not doing things as performative grandstanding.

He probably bent the knee, somewhere after the election, specifically during the wildfires. Funny, because that happened coincidentally, during the transfer of power.

Good riddance if this is true. He even started talking to his ex about an โ€œimage makeover.โ€

This Bruce is clearly not the Boss ๐Ÿคช

Also, I apologize for men like this. He as a man with a fragile little ego, does not represent me as a man who is just trying to get by in life.

Bruce, bye!

Also, letโ€™s be real. Mediocre white men and their misogyny have really messed up a lot of things in the dating world as well. Come to think about it, mediocre white men have messed up more than thatโ€ฆโ€ฆ

Itโ€™s exhausting but thatโ€™s exactly what they want to do with us. Flood the zone with all the shock so that we become compliant. We canโ€™t and we wonโ€™t.

Iโ€™m making sure to spend plenty of time playing music and enjoying my cats so that I donโ€™t totally blow a fuse.

Appreciate your news and views โค๏ธ

You know whatโ€™s cool? Sobriety is actually really cool.

You know whatโ€™s not cool? People thinking 1930s Germany and their leader was cool.

The irony of this? People that now support the latter are most likely the same damn people that bullied me as a kid by calling me โ€œAdolfโ€
