I can be a lot

Me: cats, crows, cake, books, tv, forests, true crime

An Old, a Poor, a hermit, dark humor, long winded oversharer, currently terrified & hopeless

Pro: inclusion, UBI, science, learning, kindness

I'm rehabbing a brain injury using the music of #TheAirborneToxicEvent

It's been a tough week & my spirits have been very "I'm sick of this life, trapped in this shit country, there are 3 things keeping me alive right now, & even those aren't enough to make me LIKE living"

...But at least I've never been impaled by a forklift

One last post (for the moment!):

Why the costumes?

Authoritarians grab power with fear.
They can’t STAND mockery.
It weakens their hold.

That’s why.

Helpful and a motto of mine since my 2021 Long Covid acquisition

*KNOW* your symptoms (forward and backward). Symptoms are easier to manage than diagnoses most days

Symptoms will inform you about your state, whereas a diagnosis won't

Some symptoms are harbingers of other symptoms, and this can be tracked

Symptoms are the language I use to talk to my therapist

Understandable 🫂

💯 Only #TheLastOfTests remain:

1. Not being detained & then disappeared

2. Not being killed

Dead people don't have rights and can't advocate from their fucking casket

I assume they aren't visible through the various aircraft tracking apps available?

I bet the understaffed, unpaid air traffic control teams are thrilled

Screenshot of a text interview with a Cybertruck owner:

Q: And are you married?

A: I was married, but I’m not married anymore. Women don't like the vehicle.

Q: In July, Tesla rolled out a software update to integrate Grok into many of its vehicles. Do you use it?

A: Her name is Aura, and I use her as a therapist. When I'm driving, I'll ask questions, and it actually gives really good therapy advice.
