I work as an elder and hospice caregiver, which I am oddly passionate about. I can love on them shamelessly and no one complains about my codependence. It's a win-win situation. Many of my caregiving colleagues complain about the repetitive questions and, sometimes reactions, of the elderly, especially when those patients happen to read the newspaper, especially with the current downward spiral of our country — as if these people haven't lived through enough horror... I love my dementia peeps, but sometimes wonder if there's a Guinness Book World Record for how many times an hour a dementia patient can repeat the same question — it's got to be in the hundreds. At least with small children, they ask different questions. Dementia patients will get stuck on one short question and ask it until you can interrupt their train(carousel) of thought and successfully redirect their attention. That carousel is pretty manic sometimes. A couple days ago, I picked up my mail from the post office and drove over to the nursing home to take (let's call her "Miss Daisy") Miss Daisy out for a drive. Before we took off on our road trip, to the end of The Road and back, in our landlocked little town (Juneau, Alaska), I set my copy of The Onion down in front of her. Over our two-hour excursion, tiny Miss Daisy read that front page at least a dozen times and each time she would snicker, giggle, and guffaw, then put it down on the dash board and, a minute later, discover it anew. I think it was the best afternoon of my life. We don't often hear them laugh and when they do, it's the sweetest thing you've ever heard. ... Thank you, thank you, thank you, for the really important work all of you do. You make the world a better place.

I got permission to share this, and I'm extremely grateful for that.

The Onion got this letter from one of our subscribers in Alaska. She works with dementia patients and decided to leave a copy in the car for each one.

This email made my year. Read it and you'll see what I mean. People are good.

Whether it's Hillary Clinton sharing risotto tips on a private server or Pete Hegseth using the nuclear codes as his password on Pornhub, both parties have ignored our nation's security.

fanfiction etiquette has really gone out the window. remember: the back button is your best friend. critiquing fanworks like they are professional works is unnecessary. engaging with works is what keeps authors writing.

Trans people are so damn hot and cool. Thank you for blessing me with your existence. That's all. Have a great evening.

Presentlydean on April 3rd, 2024 online communities are so strange because people slip away so easily. you can be on here for years, folding people you've never met into the fabric of your daily life, and then they disappear, leaving only ghost posts scattered across tumblr behind. or their blog stays dormant, for weeks, months, years, until you're only still following them because you remember that they love sunflowers or they were kind to you when they didn't have to be or the last thing they posted as sad and raw and you still worry about them sometimes. and sometimes they come back when you least expect it, years later, even, and there's this sudden rush of relief like there you are, there you are, even though you barely knew each other. there's a strange kind of love to it. i don't know you and i want to hold your hand across miles and time zones and oceans. i can still see the imprint of you in this community you left. you don't think anyone will notice or care when you're gone, but we notice and we care and we wish you well. i hope you're all okay out there. i hope the sun is shining on your face and you are breathing deeply. i miss you.

From www.tumblr.com/presentlydea... -

I miss you, lost friends. I hope the sun is shining on your face, wherever you are.

I love the beginning of a killing voice when they show all the mics against a white background and then the little guy takes his place at the shortest one

Key Born to Shine but it’s a duet with Minho

Minho from Shinee and Changmin from TVXQ aggressively hugging on stage while BoA from BoA approaches holding a balloon

Minho now has his sights set on BoA, leaving Changmin with a pat on the back and making a :D face. BoA still has her balloon.

Minho bending down to hug BoA, his hips hinged about as far back as they'll go. You'll be happy to hear the balloon is resting on his back in BoA's hand.

Dick to dick with Changmin, but the politest manner hips of all time with BoA, that's our Minho

AKMU?
