I got blocked by an unintelligent person. They really showed me.

Oh no, I won't ever get to hear their future pontificated wisdoms…

People who think they are smarter than they really are at the office, is called the Dunder-Mifflin effect.

The end of the workday on Friday is the worst part of the week for job hunters hoping to hear back from employers.

Is felon47 destroying the east-wing of the white house so he could claim he "destroyed the left"? (Assuming he's facing south)

If you are wondering how to help people in your community, financial donations to food banks are incredibly important right now.

The USDA has instructed states to deny SNAP nutrition benefits.

As we have said repeatedly at Defend Public Health, MAHA is a joke when kids in the U.S. are hungry.

USDA has instructed states not to issue November 2025 Nutrition Assistance (NA)
Benefits
The United States Department of Agriculture has instructed states to hold the issuance of November 2025 NA benefits. Approved participants of the SNAP program will be unable to collect November benefits until federal funding is released to states.
DES will continue to accept and process applications for SNAP. Additional information will be provided as the situation changes.

Writing, like everything, is a skill. Skills can be sharpened and honed. Some are better than others; but keep doing what you love.

The results you seek will eventually follow.

Being miserable and commenting on random blogs must take a toll on a person's psyche.

I'm good now. I know who I am and what my worth is. Nobody can cut me down again.

(between you and me my writings will still contain errors, LOTS of errors, and that's ok)

My hope is that the miserable person who said they "weeped for the future of education" is okay (alcoholism is no joke).

Suffice to say they killed my joy for writing, anything. Yes, it was my fault for letting a stranger on the internet affect me so much, but at the time my self esteem was non-existent. I never claimed to be perfect and my writing surely had errors but what that person did to me was cruel [continued]

Correction, 16 years. Man, time does fly!

I'd also like to note, about 17 years ago I wrote a "funny onion-like" article on my Live Journal blog and got a rando person who claimed to be an english teacher who was very drunk and decided to tear me to pieces in my comments. [continued]

I'm a big fan of cooking. It makes the food I eat yummier.

Raydred @raydred.com · 13h

I didn't think I was a writer; then I remembered, I've been writing short-formed posts/tweets/skeets fairly regularly for at least 14 years now.

So yeah, I'm a writer.

Someone told me to pick up a book, once in a while.

I think they just want me to help clean up their space…

You're not saving any letters either, just replacing an E with an apostrophe haha

Unless apostrophes were free in telegrams or something.

Language evolves. It's in the dictionary; Been there for a while. Even "Okay" is a modified abbreviation of "Oll Korrect" which was a popular stylized spelling of "All Correct".

Kids these days, amirite? 😎

Ebola is one of the nasty viruses that can hide in the body even after a patient recovers and tests negative. It can reemerge and trigger a new outbreak years later. How do they survive? And how can they be kayoed?

Some viruses can play a deadly game of hide and seek

We're at the point in the story where the FBI is showing up at a dude's house because he attended a protest. Without suspicion of a crime, agents ask important questions like who produced signs for the event.

And it had an impact--he decided not to go back to the streets to voice his opinions.

I obtained video of two FBI agents visiting an anti-ICE protester not charged with any crime.

While the media continue to mock Trump's war on "Antifa" as legally impossible, the FBI is quietly implementing it with investigations like these:
