Quick reminder that being sad or mad or afraid is perfectly normal in the face of all this. Grieving is normal in the face of all of this. We will, though, do everything we can to not give in to despair because action is stifled by despair. We will rest, nourish, and love. We will not despair.

There’s no reason to have a Democratic Party if it won’t go to the mat to save the Department of Education. It’s a fundamental belief that children in America deserve better futures. It’s tremendously simple. You cannot continue funding a government that would close this.

This is so fucking terrifying!!!!! Every day I become more and more grateful for having gotten the education I did, because I’m so scared of what’s happening to public education.

if astrology isn’t real then why am I getting my ass kicked by homesickness on the last day of my Saturn return during Venus retrograde, HUH

Friends! It is not too late to get your flu shot! Flu is going around HARD rn and I want you to be protected! I got my flu + covid shots (also never too late to get up to date on your covid vax!) on Friday - my Walgreens is offering them both for free and yours might too!

A Koolaid jammer pouch really is one of the most efficient ways to slurp a liquid as quickly as possible

Fucking hell, I’ve mostly been off social media today and I just logged on to discover the fucking federal government is experiencing what amounts to a hostile takeover??? What the fuck????????

omfg I just went to message a friend on Instagram, discovered he’s gone from Insta and FB, and panicked thinking I’d lost touch with someone I’ve known since 2011 tumblr 😭 thank GOD I found him on LinkedIn (a sentence I never thought I’d say)

I recently started seeing a new therapist with whom I have a shared cultural context, and it is SO nice 🥹

EXCITING NEW DEVELOPMENT: I have discovered how to download from AO3 as EPUB —> send EPUB to Kindle app. That plus infinite scrolling makes for a nearly frictionless digital reading experience, allowing me to chug fic at speeds never before seen. 👁️👄👁️

Hmm! Don’t like that!

The more terrified I get, the more resolutely I believe that holding onto hope is an absolute necessity. We have to believe in a better tomorrow.

my brain screamies are materializing in the form of the Ptolemaea scream today
