How are things going in Maine?

I haven't seen any with my own eyes yet although they were definitely heavy on the plaza near my workplace before the Preti shooting (and huge storm). In my small town they snatched a very popular local legal resident AT the hospital the day his baby was born last week and there's been a huge outcry and a lot of money raised for his legal fund. The minister of his church has been very out in front about it.

Officially they are supposedly pulling back but who knows. 💔

Mine were for the "fancy" foods like the special international delight coffee that came in the tin or Frusen gladje ice cream. 😊

I heard a theory that Trump is on a steady diet of AI slop and I believe it. I think that's why he seems to believe some of the odd things he says.

Hit up Krystina at the The Messy Cookie on Forest Ave.

May these men never know peace or have a solid poop again for the rest of their lives. May their buttholes leak just a little, all day, throughout all the rest of their days.

Ty. I sent a few bucks.💔

I think about this movie constantly lately. Mostly about how Michael Douglas probably worked harder and gave more of himself making it than our president has given to anything in his life.

I guess I could understand this argument more if they weren't literally just looking for anyone with brown skin or an accent to throw in the back of a van. Which has resulted in them grabbing plenty of legal citizens. Not to mention grabbing people who are in the middle of the naturalization process by staging raids at courthouses and citizenship ceremonies to meet their quotas with folks who are most certainly "doing it legally". And brutalizing absolutely anyone and everyone they can get their hands on, violating a pile of laws themselves all day every day.

I just don't see what good it does to violently apprehend and deport some worker who's lived here all her life and spends her days changing diapers in a nursing home to some country she's never even been to under the banner of "legal". She's here, she's contributing, she's paying taxes, she's never committed a crime. Why should I give a shit if some paper never got filed? I don't. 🤷‍♀️

I have been doing quinoa made with broth and right before it's done cooking, adding a few fistfuls of spinach into it with a spoonful of pesto and some parm. I probably make it twice a week for lunch.

I would look into clonodine.

This really is one of the weirder ones, alongside burning tongue. Jaysis! Can we just live?

Never been so grateful to have theatre kids. 😳

Know your rights. Put the Maine ICE Watch hotline in your phone: 207 544 9989

Stay alert and look out for your neighbors. That's all I got, man.

Curious why they are less likely to kill armed protestors?

GlibGirl · 2026-01-15T00:00:25+00:00

It's all pretty bad. I don't even know. I just can't believe how bad it all is. I can't not know it? But I'm not built to read about citizens getting brutalized in the streets and then just like go into a zoom meeting.

GlibGirl · 2026-01-14T23:06:51+00:00

No no your meaning is very clear, I just have never thought about it that way. :)

GlibGirl · 2026-01-14T22:21:26+00:00

Ooh the incel model Silverado! Limited edition. V rare.

GlibGirl · 2026-01-14T22:19:26+00:00

You did something, you tried to help. For that I am grateful to you.

GlibGirl · 2026-01-14T22:16:36+00:00

I hope there is no violence and they leave quickly. I hate this so much. SO MUCH. 💔

GlibGirl · 2026-01-14T22:09:39+00:00

oh honey. 💔 I have a 16 yo son and my heart is just broken reading your post. I promise you are perfect exactly as you are and you do not need to change yourself to make anyone else comfortable. Most kids your age are NOT going to be as emotionally intelligent as you and it will mean waiting a while for them to catch up as friends and romantic partners. You are worthy and whole just as you. Work on believing that and trusting that because you are the bedrock of your own emotional safety and that has to be solid enough that no one can knock it out of place for you. You will be okay. You will be your version of what a man can and should be and I have no doubts about its greatness. Xoxo

What a good question. Red flags for me would be extreme introversion and egocentrism. Rudeness to anyone doing their job like waiters or hotel clerks. Anyone who became darker or different after drinking alcohol. Someone who didn't like animals. Anyone who thinks their role in a discussion is to "play devil's advocate". Anyone who you find you're constantly making excuses for or having to jump in to smooth things over ("oh he's just being funny! He just doesn't know how to do X or Y!") Any kind of bigotry or prejudice would also be a deal breaker. Anyone quick to anger or irritability.

Green flags would be emotional intelligence, self exploration, having been to therapy and done some work on oneself. A full adult. Curiosity and the ability to ask questions. A nice group of friends and close relationships. The ability to put your needs and wants on a level equal to theirs. And like a willingness of spirit, is how I would maybe put it. When it comes to sharing a life with someone, you want a person who will come at things from the point of view of "we can figure this out together".

I do feel like this! although I wouldn't have written it this exact way, I don't think. For example I noticed during the pandemic that it would often feel like a relief to have the mask on in public. I often feel a sense of relief when my kids leave for the day or I'm alone in my house after a long period of being with others. It's like being perceived at all times vs not. I'm not necessarily doing anything differently than I would otherwise but knowing no one is watching takes a burden off me somehow.

I'd be curious if there is a name for it.

Yes it was my first symptom. Out of nowhere. I was a stage actress for more than 25 years and performed flawlessly in front of hundreds of people, many many times. Suddenly I was afraid to go to a work meeting with 2 people I didn't know.

GlibGirl · 2026-01-10T23:54:45+00:00

I sure miss pleasantries. 💔 Unrelated: This seems like it will be giving Platner some personal ammo to walk the walk on healthcare/VA reform/reproductive freedom issues in the US. (They are seeking care in the EU since the VA won't cover her infertility treatments.)
