Apparently I’m at the prime age for seeing certain scenes from the Mandalorian and thinking “Oh cool I haven’t seen RobiCop in ages” 💀

I could do a “Best of 2025” thread but literally survived a serious mental health crisis only to almost die in a house fire 🤷‍♀️ Imma bought as serious and inspirational as a classic remade into a muppet movie 🫶✨🫶

Guess who just made their 1st completely independent trip to the grocery store post brain injury?!?
Using the white cane to walk vs a mobility cane was SO MUCH BETTER.

I just saw a Santa, full costume- hat, beard, top, boots. Except, oddly he was wearing cotton mauve shorts that showed his knees.
Dude hustled outta Marshall’s to his beater red hatchback. If he’d had a cigarette hanging out of his mouth, we’d be in a John Hughes movie.

what I want trans kids, queer kids, and gender nonconforming kids to know:

you are loved

you are so much more powerful than the ghouls using your healthcare as a political pawn, and you WILL outlive them (they know this, and it is why they're attacking you)

Rob Reiner: “Silence in the face of authoritarianism is complicity. Speaking out is a patriotic act. Democracy doesn’t defend itself. It requires participation, vigilance, and courage from ordinary people."

May their memories be for a blessing

So much beauty and goodness in these responses. Chag Sameach. May light keep pouring forth and lighting the way to your health, wholeness, and joyfulness.
It’s the first night of Hanukkah and the world seems like a very dark place. But we can bring light to the darkness. We can fight for each other and make goodness, love, and community shine through.

Show me your menorahs and let’s light up the timeline!

Color contrast affects readability on the web and in print. It is especially important for users who are low vision or for users who are colorblind. Good color contrast means all users can see your content no matter the device they’re using or the lighting of their surroundings.

Marketing works lol. (Story time!)
So since my brain injury in August, my brain is spitting a lot of memories/nostalgia stuff at me.
Initially with wound/burn care on my left leg/butt cheek, my very not online partner would pop up a leg to rest *my* leg up to change bandages.

I just feel awful for the National Guard troopers caught up in this. They’re just standing around looking bored all the time, but they have been made into a deliberate symbol by the Trump admin and that may have made them a target for this gunman.
BREAKING: Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth said the Trump administration would send hundreds of additional National Guard soldiers to the nation’s capital after two soldiers were shot in the city Wednesday.
