For all the ghost shows I’ve been on and for all the hauntings I’ve experienced & assessed – the genuine ones are never Annabelle level ridiculous. They’re mostly domestic and sweet.

Case in point:
My house is haunted, but it’s mostly just confusing, like..it’s never really scared me - just made me second-guess my ADHD meds. According to our neighbors, our place was once owned by an elderly Italian couple who spoke little English.
do you believe in ghosts or are you like me, a person who finds themself saying all the time “I absolutely don’t believe in ghosts, but this place has ghosts.”

Unlike most apps these days, Scrivener does not use AI in any way. However, if you’re on a Mac, you may see an AI prompt.

Any wonder why Gen Xers are the way we are?

As I mourn Bliss and everything she gave to me as a gentle companion, let me share a fantastic compilation CD from back in the day: #CatSky 🐾🌈

Finally unpacked the bag from A Gentle Farewell’s pet crematorium & to Bliss’s ashes on the altar (it’s been weeks)

Thought everything was fine, then just started sobbing

I miss my sweet girl

All companion animals are beloved but it hits so much harder with wit-bonded familiars

Oof 🐾🌈

I am deliriously laughing at the image of Boebert facing dawning revelation that she's actually found the pedophile elite conspiracy ring and that she's standing right in the middle of it

Not news:

They’re bad

They’re ALL bad

They’ve always been bad

And there is no point at which they will stop being bad without the intercession of substantial external force

I picked an odd day to check social media for news after a lengthy fast

Going back to my cave now

Poke me if they actually do something substantial about the problem

Just cuz I suspect it's gonna be relevant: "underage women" is a contradiction in terms. There are adults and there are minors, who are children. Ditto "nonconsensual sex." That's rape. The only reason to play semantic games is because you benefit from obscuring the simplicity of these terms.
