I've started writing again under a new moniker. My goal is to talk about my life + adoption, religion, Trauma and estrangement through the lens of being an adoptee. Too many people are talking for us and not listening to us.

It's wild that a woman who WASTED 10s of millions of dollars on Tylenol is claiming that cutting support programs for vulnerable populations (where all of the money goes back into the economy) is a wise move. I honestly don't know she sleeps at night and how we let her

Minutes into the State of the Union, Rep. Al Green (D-Texas) was escorted out by the Sergeant at Arms for holding up a sign, "Black People Aren't Apes" -- a reference to Trump posting a racist AI-generated video depicting the Obamas as apes.

Kash Patel walked into their dressing room after the game and not one of them - not a single one - said "Get that ICE fucker out of our dressing room".
There aren't many hockey players who did not miss a huge amount of elementary/secondary school to attend hockey camps and tournaments.
And it shows.

A photo of young Abood seated on the floor, looking at his broken leg with a pain expression. His leg is covered with a blue cast.
Another photo of him in a different position.

My back brace came in a few weeks ago & I haven’t had a chance to get photos but it’s AMAZING for the days where my body just wants to crumple into a pile of bones.
I’m definitely gonna order some compression items soon & so should you!

Dear Alberta,
In advance of the budget disaster, Turkish Tylenol, crumbling health care and education, coal mines, book bans, swan hunts, and deep, deep corruption, we would like to you blame immigrants. And Ottawa (always Ottawa).
Yours separate but together,
Premier/Governor/Her Ladyship Smith
You can watch the NDP leadership debate on YouTube at the link below. I went in voting for Avi Lewis and emerged considering Tanille Johnston. She's definitely on the right track for what I want to see at the Fed level.

SO MUCH THIS, I am also so very tired of this, shaming terrible people is great but shame them for the REASON THEY ARE TERRIBLE and not for anything about their bodies or appearances

I hate POTS days where I can't play ESO (because it makes my symptoms unbearable). I just had a bitty cinnamon bun last night like that shouldn't cause the wrath of Dog like this
