Very worth watching to understand the current discussion on Tylenol youtu.be/jdKm1UrqOZM

In the eventuality of my demise please do not play the piano or hire the harpist from down the road. Instead I want you to sit on the doorstep and listen to the birds. Let them tell you how I feel, now I am finally able to touch the sky. #vssdaily piano #vss365 eventuality

I’m autistic. Not because of Tylenol. Not because of vaccines. Not because of some headline. I’m autistic because that’s how my brain works. Stop treating us like a problem. Start listening to us.

STILL AFLOAT A great wave of emotions inundates me Fear, sadness, loss of hope inability to see a happy ending The change coming this week is bigger than I can manage I release control place myself in the hand of the universe I can tend my small boat but the universe must guide the storm Roberta ❤️‍🔥

Don't be afraid of getting old. Let it liberate you. Let your talons grow long and wild. Festoon your antlers with moss & wildflowers. Skulk through the shadows, invisible to most. Become the shambling forest creature you were destined to be.

Truth Practice I want a truth that does not bruise just to prove it is real. I will say what I mean, slowly enough for kindness to keep up. If there is a choice, I choose gentle. Say it with me. We test it by distance. Can we stand closer after the sentence. #poetry

COMING HOME Sometimes I catch a glimpse of my life passing by, just out of reach. I chase its tail as it twists and turns through time. When did it escape me? I reclaim my body. I dream new dreams. It is not time yet, but I feel its sigh of relief. We are close. Roberta ❤️‍🔥 #poetry #now

I bring a drop of magic, soft as a blessing, bright as a dream, to all who need it… #TinyMessenger #photography #Ladybug #SimpleJoys

TRANSFIGURATION I will lift this darkness from my head. I will surround it with joyful sounds of hallelujah and wash it with transforming waves of light until it is loved into its next evolution. Roberta ❤️‍🔥 #poetry #inspiration #evolution

I started #PoE2 release as a sorc, but got very few drops and felt weak. So I started a chaos witch summoner, got good drops, and easily bypassed my sorc in a few hours. I have purple wings and sparkles, my minions are fierce, and having a great time finishing act 2 😄

I am watching the FastBoy streamers ramping up for the new #POE2 release.. and I am reinforced in my desire to go at my own speed, learn it all again like the first time. A good video game is like sex, the goal is to enjoy it and take pleasure, not run to the end as fast as you can… 😂

What if light is the enemy, flattening the world into reassurance, tricking us with clarity while starving us of depth? To see is not always to know. Sometimes sight robs us blind, of the textures only touch recalls, the tensions where life strains and finds itself alive. #poem #counter #notrilke

I’ve always believed that nature had a sentience I could connect to, I could abide by, I could befriend. Sometimes as I encounter the Earth, I whisper sweet nothings to Her. Greetings, thank yous, prayers. She hears me, I just know it. #vss365 #poetry #sentient

If Only I send my regrets I’m not me, 20 years ago or me 2 years ago, sometimes I wonder, if there was a me or if she’s a mirage I made up, some woman with balls of steel who laughed and sang and spun records and cared about her art; she seems like someone else, but my friends know her #poetry

we are the same dream poured into form blossoming through different lips different prayers pushing against the dark like sunflower seeds planted beneath soil longing for the same blue sky #Photography mindi @flawdbizkit.bsky.social

Give me wings to fly she begged, not realizing she could levitate Roberta ❤️‍🔥 #vss365 #wings #poetry #power

My pet named Peeve came crawling crying into my lap this afternoon saying “It’s all so unfair! Why can’t I just not work? Why do I have to wait?” Peeve is always in a grumpy mood. #vss365 #poetry #grumpy

30 day Unconditional Love Challenge Day 26 Today I love and accept the part of me that believes the external world has authority over me where to go how to act what to do who to be what to feel and that waits passively, obediently for direction and permission to be given. Roberta ❤️‍🔥

A retired teacher friend came over the other day. She left the profession early to prioritize her wellbeing. She said, “You don’t have to set your own house on fire to keep your neighbours warm”. Balancing self-care with community care can be hard, and women need to remind each other of this.

I find life is asking me to recognize, examine and change many mental beliefs that I developed or adopted into my identity. This is like changing the key so that it fits a different lock, open a different door. I am the key. A new world is waiting. Roberta ❤️‍🔥 Art: Butterfly Paradise by Cory Carlson

Bass: We just heard that the administration’s experiment failed. The raids that were happening in Los Angeles—the random pulling and snatching of people off the streets based on the language they spoke, their appearance, where they work—the court has said that can no longer happen.

30 day Unconditional Love Challenge Day 19 Today I love and accept the part of me that resists changing, that holds on to accumulated things, old stories and beliefs, past hurts and losses. Roberta ❤️‍🔥 #unconditional #love #challenge #change

EXTRA It is the (presence, intention, feeling) behind the (touch, thought, word) that makes all the difference. Roberta ❤️‍🔥 #inspiration #presence

Ok, the Spiders are dead with my trusty buggies help, one big one with 2 juniors, but… OMG there is an enormous Scorpion 😱 I will leave that for another day, plenty to explore before casting myself off that cliff! Enjoying the experience at my own speed. #grounded2 #box #insects!

30 day Unconditional Love Challenge Day 18 Today I love and accept the part of me that does not respect my body's limits, that pushes to continue when it needs rest, feeds it when it is full, keeps talking when it needs silence. Roberta ❤️‍🔥 #unconditional #love #respect #body

30 day Unconditional Love Challenge Day 17 Today I love and accept the part of me that forgets to soften my heart and be kind, to others and to myself. Roberta ❤️‍🔥 #unconditional #love #kind

I am totally enjoying Grounded 2 because I set my world to mild difficulty and am taking my time. Death to bugs not me! 😁 I have a pebble foundation, grass walls, and the roof is just started. Once finished, I will go get my red ant buggie egg. And learn to kill a spider. 😱 #xbox #grounded2

The #hum of the tires on the road was hypnotic Lulling me to sleep inside of the car where my parents angry voices were never raised A sense of enclosed safety a cocoon for my sadness curled in my corner against the window The eager sense of going somewhere that was not “home” Roberta ❤️‍🔥 #vss365

Well… I played Grounded 2 for a couple of hours and was happy with my progress so I quit for a break. Logging back into Xbox, I find there is no save to load… 😱 I tried to look on obsidian.net but it has errors so won’t load.. lol early access bites me in the butt 😅 #grounded2 #xbox

Downloading the 15Gb last minute patch 😁

Grounded 2 early access tonight! Given my (lack of) battle skill in Grounded that kept me from finishing, I think it is wise to start this on easy setting 😂 #grounded2 #survival #rpg

30 day Unconditional Love Challenge Day 13 Today I love and accept the part of me that feels angry when things don't happen the way I want them to. Roberta ❤️‍🔥 #unconditional #love #anger
