A few years ago, the bestie (@lightlyredacted.bsky.social) & I had a blog we worked on together. We came up with the name because we'd been described by some people as "The Loud Girls."
(There's much more to it than that, but ya know, brevity.)
I don't think I've ever worn a moniker so proudly.

That's the scariest part. Not that the shit is terrifying right now, but that it's less terrifying than it used to be, & is less scary with each passing day.
It's a very effective weapon of theirs.

Y'all remember when the conversation around Project 2025 started to gain momentum in the public conversation?
Y'all remember when Donald Trump - multiple times, btw - swore he didn't know anything or anyone involved with Project 2025?
As surprising as it is to hear, Donald Trump was lying. [Gasp!]

My bestie, @lightlyredacted.bsky.social, is seriously one of the most beautiful, amazing human beings to have ever walked the Earth.
I feel like she isn't told often enough just how wonderful she truly is.
There isn't enough character space to make this just one post, so a thread it shall be.

I often refer back to Lauren Herschel's "Ball In the Box Analogy" for helping people to understand the way grief works, over time.
It's quite accurate, and explains the process of why "time heals all wounds" isn't exactly true, but why we think it is.

I was looking for an article about the laziness myth, in which disabled people feel "lazy" or burdensome.
The first auto-populated option literally elicited an audible gasp. I don't know what to say about this...
"Why do disabled people exist"
Are you fucking kidding me?!

Did my nails today! I love, love, LOVE the delicate daisies, ladybugs, and the gorgeous deep green. 😍😍
(Mine are actually really short due to breaks, so these are glue-on. Not my nail art, either, but I wish I could do this!)

Why are priests from Finland so good at Mortal Kombat?
Because they're well-versed in Finnish hymns. 😉

As soon as I heard Ghislaine Maxwell's offer to start spilling the beans, I'm suspicious.
She's been in prison all this time & hasn't said word one.
This involves the New York Post: right-wing, borderline tabloid. Not a reliable source. Oh, and it's owned by Rupert Murdoch. Shady af.

I know I'm horrible about posting here, y'all, and I'm trying to do better.
Luckily, I can now get notifications when specific people post, which will help remind me! 🤞🏻
All that said, good morning! Random memes, because I'm having an ADHD-heavy morning. 😂
