Need a mental health year
1. I needed this bit of nostalgia today.
2. I’m still very attracted to 1999 Rob Thomas.

After being held in two of them as a boy, I fought for decades urging America to never again build concentration camps and put human beings in them. It breaks my heart to watch this happen twice now in my own lifetime.

I heard there are people on OF reading books out loud to people.
I may have found a new way to make money.

It’s the perfect day to find a secluded cottage in the Scottish Highlands and go off the grid for a few years.

STORM ALERT: This is my watercolor print We Grew Through Storms. I love watching storms, but I don't love being in the middle of them. Like many of us are right now. We can never predict how we are going to fare. But looking back we can say we've grown. So my hope is we will become better.

Dear Lord, I’m so cold!
We’re doing something new with the seating plan at work. I had to switch sides of the office and it’s like 10 degrees colder. 🥶 I was not prepared.

My flight or fight response wants to move to Norway…

I need a mental health week.
The American dream is dead. We need to retool our entire government. People are dying, disappearing and scared. My ex is being emotionally manipulative. I’m grieving that I will, definitively, never have a co-parent. I’m exhausted.

I’m a newbie with tarot. When I pulled The Tower for my weekly theme this week…
…I never imagined it was going to be this. Renee Good didn’t deserve that. My emotions and mental capacity need to regroup.
Please take care of yourselves out there. Take the breaks you need. Fight if/how/when you can.

I like to keep this space somewhat free from politics, but y’all.
People really be out here comparing Zoran Mamdani, a mayor, to dictators of whole countries and empires. The power dynamics are not the same. Da fuck!!!
Btw, I like Mamdani. He’s funny, down-to-earth and his wife is just *squee*

My grandma passed yesterday. We expected her go in July when she took a really bad turn.
It’s bringing up some things that I just can’t sort out. Largely, I feel this sense of lost history — and a sense of greater responsibility as I’m, more or less, now the elder woman in my family line.

I love when one of my kids falls asleep next to me with my arm wrapped around them…
Until they drool into the crook of my elbow.

Read an article stating that Bluesky will never have the amount of users that the other place does. As if that’s a bad thing? There’s something to be said about quality over quantity.
They can have their bot-infested dystopia over there, whilst we have tea and scones in front of the fire over here.

As I end my Thanksgiving day, a few things that I am thankful for:
- having a holiday off with pay
- spending a whole day (mostly) relaxing with my kids
- pie
- introspection
- a comfy bed
