It's strange to me when I see people get upset about people doing good deeds, and posting it online.

"They're just doing it for attention!"

Yeah, so what? I'd much rather see people doing nice things for attention, than the people who do mean pranks or wasting food. A good deed is still good, even if it's done for the wrong reasons.

Yes, very few people make a living doing art, and even fewer make a living doing the art they want. Maybe this is just me, but it seems like there's something about art that is anti-fascist and anti-capitalist. Authoritarians fear self expression, arts always seem the first to go when things get more conservative, and yet it has never stopped us. If they take everything away, we will draw on cave walls with charcoal from a fire, make dolls of corn husks, carve bones into beads, make bowls of mud, write stories in blood, make musical instruments out of anything, we will remember our history through song. We will pass these things down as evidence that we could never completely be silenced, we were here, we matter.

Okay, since I'm on laundry today, a little story.

When hubs and I first got married, we were very much enjoying our little Honeymoon Bubble, and we were being lazy as Hell. We didn't do many chores, but the laundry we really let go. We weren't wearing many clothes at home anyway, so why bother. Anyhow, after weeks we finally reached the swimming suit bottoms situation, and decided it was time. It was loads and loads of laundry that needed done, so I had my husband back the trunk of the car up to a window of the house, then he popped the trunk, and I started tossing laundry out of the window into the trunk. We went to the bank, got about $30 bucks in quarters, and found the emptiest laundry mat we could, and did it all in one fell swoop. We folded it all and loaded it back into the car using those wheeled laundry carts. We never let it get that bad again, and decided it was time to be adults, and do regular chores, but it still makes me laugh imagining what the neighbors and the laundry attendant thought.

Feel free to share your own laundry story, if you feel like it, I love hearing people's stories!

I would make a joke about irony, but honestly, I don't know if anyone actually understands what it is.

And if I did someone would inevitably come along in the comments, and try to explain irony, and even more inevitably someone would correct them, and then really this is just a joke about hubris, which is probably ironic, but who the hell knows.

Seriously heard someone saying they don't listen to many black artists, because they aren't really into rap. Bitch please, feel free to share songs from Black artists from any genre. Here is one of my favorites, if you like this song please check out her other work:

These are some of the oldest surviving pictures of dogs. It just goes to show that humans haven't changed too much. We have to get pics of the cute pups!

This is a white fluffy poodle, it has a bow on it's head, and it's just exhausted by this whole ordeal and having a wee nap
This is a white dog with dark patches and floppy ears. It's seated in such a way that it looks like it could leap up at any moment joyfully, but it's trying very hard to behave for the photo. It has a big ole open mouth doggie smile, and definitely seems to be making eye contact with the human that is having it sit still to have it's picture made.
This dog has that kind of silky black and white fur that you just want to pet so much, big floofy floppy ears like a border collie. It is laying down like it's napping, and I wonder if it's human decided to try to take it's picture while it was napping, but it woke up to a camera and looks mildly perplexed, worried, and put upon.

@RickiTarr Curating your playlist is doing something. It will later be a soundtrack for doing other things.

I especially recommend King Sunny Ade for lap swimming. It becomes a meditation.

If the gods exist, it's mighty presumptuous to think they have our best interests at heart, or even think about us at all.

ccdudley85,

@RickiTarr Polytheism specifically claims that the gods don't care about us but about themselves and their particular attributes.

In monotheism, the act of creation forms a closer link.
