My level of emotional resistance to doing laundry is unreal. It doesn't even take that long, and I don't have to stay at the laundromat while my clothes are in the machine! The bar across the street from there has hamburgers today! Yet I sit here, frozen, bargaining with myself that maybe I can do it tomorrow (when there will be no hamburgers, btw).

@liferstate I feel that. Itโ€™s super familiar. Go do it right now. Get up. Go.

@bynkii What is it called when you buy something, you own it, but you canโ€™t sell it. Iโ€™ve never seen this model of โ€œcompanyโ€ or โ€œsalesโ€ or โ€œownershipโ€ before. Does โ€œownershipโ€ mean anything at all to Elon, and what type of fucking morons play this game with him. WTF?! ๐Ÿคฃ

"The ยฃ4.1bn bill for the 1,307 brain-damaged babies is further evidence of the growing crisis of poor care being provided across many NHS childbirth services. Almost two-thirds of maternity units in England are unsafe, according to the Care Quality Commission, the independent health regulator. Maternity care overall is getting worse, the CQC has warned.โ€

@Woodswalked Women and children are under attack both here and there. The fundamentals arenโ€™t paid attention to anymore. We're going back to a previous century.

Itโ€™s clear journalismโ€™s present day mission is both to NOT find out anything important and if they do find out, NOT TO TELL YOU.

@paninid I agree, but itโ€™s not MSM.

@harmonygritz Yep. Huge issue. These journalists want to be in the in crowd. Theyโ€™re social climbing, attempting to see themselves as of the same ilk, part of the same crowd as the people theyโ€™re supposed to be watching. Itโ€™s not only unprofessional, itโ€™s pathetic.

A long time ago, I made a conscious decision to be a good person because Iโ€™m good at being a bad person, if I want to be. I have diverse talents. ๐Ÿ˜ƒ Hence, Iโ€™m also good at fucking with bad people.

StillIRise1963,
@StillIRise1963@mastodon.world avatar

@obscurestar Nope. Thereโ€™s not. I have to look at myself in the mirror and the rewards you reap with being mean arenโ€™t the ones I value.

Iโ€™m no fan of libertarians, but I do appreciate the way they treated that fucking criminal at the rally.

@LuLuLove Right?! Itโ€™s righteous justice.

@crdfilm Yeah, I wouldnโ€™t assume anything else from those white dudes.

@LuLuLove On the whole, my antics are now over with. I had to stop engaging. I got fed the fuck up.

@faraiwe Uh, people who canโ€™t read might think that. Illiterate people might think that.

@faraiwe Iโ€™m not sure youโ€™re using the skill either, to be perfectly honest.

Y'ALL.
FINALLY.

MY NEWEST BOOK IS OUT. ๐Ÿ˜ƒ๐Ÿฅณ๐ŸŽถ๐Ÿ’ƒ๐Ÿ˜

THE ACCURSED is my first ever solidly YA fantasy novel & I am SO excited to share this adventure with you!

Teen heroine Elfled is the only "unBlessed" member of her family--never a problem until they flee political persecution. Without magical skills to see her through, Elfled has only wits & hopes in her fight to resist the forces driving her squarely into Evil's lair.
