Good night, Internet, try to remember we are mostly all doing our best these days, y’all have good dreams 

Less sharp immediate need, more crashing a bit after therapy and weekends are always isolating and hard and the next couple of days would be a good time for presents and compliments.

I really love this Vincent Van Gogh quote: "To do good work one must eat well, be well housed, have one's fling from time to time, smoke one's pipe, and drink one's coffee in peace." No romanticizing the starving artist. Van Gogh said UBI all the way.

Shutting it down for the night with this post from a comrade in Chicago: 🎶"I wish I could give you this feeling. I wish I could give you this feeling."🎶

Please don't hate me. I'm doing everything I can but it's just not enough and I don't know what to even do anymore. gofund.me/de22ca37e

Lots of pretty things up for nabbin'. LGBTQIA+ staffed and owned. Thanks for shares/peeks! www.peculiarityshop.com

The ones that don’t should end in the realization that that particular relationship would have been a disaster for non-jealousy reasons and relief that we all avoided that train wreck.

every day is a great day to support your local coffee shop and not drink this shit (I hate it so much I don't even get it in airports lmao), but especially today

Hey so “underage girls” are…children. The word you’re looking for is children. They’re not like, women-in-waiting or women-lite or whatever. They’re children. I think some of you are very uncomfortable with what that means for you but it is still true.

Ugh hate to post this but bringing this back to just get us out of a “small” hole. We have money coming in but it is a struggle to get caught up Keeping the same gfm for transparency sake gofund.me/d63b5b894

In general, I am one of those people who says we do have to have very painful conversations about societal attitudes toward and treatment of pedophiles because the shit we are doing is not working, we cannot start that conversation by sacrificing children to monsters who do not care who they harm.

This dress is sold out in the size I would usually order, but it is adorable and if I had 60 extra dollars, would definitely risk sizing down one size for it. https://www.unique-vintage.com/products/preorder-unique-vintage-plus-size-blue-rainbow-stripe-swing-dress

Emotionally drained, but it was a good therapy for my brain. ideally, she would like to see me twice a week through January but we will see how much I can actually afford. Scheduling once a week for this moment.

All right, internet, the first of therapy is tomorrow but for tonight, the sleeping. Y’all be good or don’t get caught 

girlies is it wrong to like The Man In Black

worse than taken for granted And not just Dems They want us punished. while agreeing that we are uniquely a group that has to earn their care usually by denouncing some part of ourselves And soothe their anger at the fact that for the split second they listened Things were better

I keep telling folks Pope Leo was a Bishop in Peru. That’s real shit. Dude ain’t playing.

Truly, some of the jars of that I have I think have had since college 

I have drink valves and I also have apples and people were nice to me today and I really really needed that. 

I hope everybody who even *thinks* about suggesting we go back to the high-risk healthcare pool situation is diagnosed with a pre-existing condition tonight.

excuse me what

Delivery people bought me 12kg of silk filament today, which will make another 5,000 - 7,000 whistles (depending on size) and thank you everyone who sent some. 💓 (I also got a bunch of spools of the charity toy ones, which means I will be sending more toys out to more places!! <3)

I need so many things I can’t afford that I’ve stopped tracking what those things are, shit is entirely too depressing, I am absolutely certain I would have little to none of $2000 to save.

I've put it off too long In three days we won't have money for heating fuel, feed, or groceries. We're basically fucked. I need a goal of $2000 by the end of November, about $500 of that needs to be immediate, and we've never made a goal before. Please help. Venmo/cashapp: BurdockAndBramble

My virtual food drive ends Friday. Make a donation to the Northern Illinois Food Bank so they can provide 250,000 meals each day across 13 counties. Your generosity will be appreciated with special thanks in THE BRIGHTEST BLAZE. Handy QR Code below will take you to my fundraiser page. Thank you! ❤️

I know things are terrible for everyone actually but increasingly, I am aware of how profoundly not OK I am and I should at this point do a lot more than seeing my therapist, but $200 and I can have four therapy appointments, which is something.

regular reminder to SW moots (and everyone else less directly): i would like to share your promo, but if you don’t use alt text, or if you use it in malicious ways (see thread), im going to have to avoid doing that. it’s important to me that my followers who use screen readers aren’t excluded.

Friendly reminder that dishwashers made after 1995 or so are so water and energy efficient that even if you ran them twice fully loaded it would still use less water than handwashing the same load. So many "green" things feel like sacrifices. Dishwashers are not one of them.

I am looking for guests with disabilities to come on my award-winning podcast Disability After Dark. If you are interested, reach out to me at [email protected] and please pass this along.

There are years when I read 800 books. There are also years when I read 10 books. It is not a contest y’all. read the things that you want in the ways that bring you joy and calm the fuck down about it.

reminder that fresh, bright uncooked cranberry relish is amazing on leftover sandwiches and cuts heavy flavors. One bag cranberries one large orange one large apple. Process in food processor until fine grained. Add a bit of sugar and keep overnight. I can eat it by the spoonful.

Enforced positivity serves the same purpose as politeness in our society. Just as Charlie Kirk was apparently entitled to say whatever vile thing he wanted so long as it was said “politely” - - So does enforced positivity force a deflection from the very real pain someone is feeling, and its cause.

You can get discount flowers from Whole Foods in the two good to go app now, meat.

A lot of churches are turning poor, hungry people away while other poor people are handing out their last five bucks so excuse me if I climb atop this soapbox and muse awhile on how organized religion is more likely to do harm than good far, far too often.

I seem” fine” without therapy, but also I haven’t gone to a casual public event in months because I cannot trust myself to not sob unexplainably for hours. OK. This is why we ask other people to make direct asks, someone else could’ve had that interaction really.

I know it is an orgy of consumerism and also a lie but for just one year I would like to be in a position to be looking at Black Friday deals like, which of these actually makes sense to purchase and not like, yeah, right I wish.

On one hand, the thought of black Friday deals for therapy fills me with such deep despair I do not know if I will ever be OK after reading that. On the other, half tempted to call my therapist and see if she will buy in.

I once saw LeVar Burton call someone out on Twitter. That's the final boss of embarrassment. I would just die if the man who essentially taught me how to read said something negative about me.

This is so true it hurts, less horny, more desperate to not feel incredibly sad for like 2.5 seconds.

This whole country is based on defending the rights of white men, particularly white men in power, to subjugate women, children, and other non-white men to satisfy their proclivities. Not to say we shouldn't fight like hell, but don't for a minute act like that isn't what this country was built on

This man has been accused of rape more than once. His own momma called him “an abuser of women.”

All right Internet, y’all rest well and have good dreams. And remember to tell your people that they matter.

"Why can't you trannies be easily led rubes who treat politics like sports teams instead of actual layered issues that impact your lives and well being directly?! *I* can do it, why can't you?"
