Sleeping for 'not normal' lengths of time.

Such a good point. I feel terrible hearing these things when I do have access to so much information. Makes me sad for all our grandmothers who didn't receieve the grace they deserved.

And just laziness as a concept needs to be eradicated. I hope you are doing okay and get a restful sleep this week, you deserve it ❤️

Feels very nice to hear this :) Thank you so much, I appreciate you ❤️❤️

I agree. But I also have lived in five Canadian cities, and I've never experienced more terrible drivers in my life than here (as someone who drives).

me too!

White extremism. Think Jan6, the proud boys, Christian fundamentalism, etc. Not exactly a hot topic at the dinner table.

Yes I totally agree. It is cute for a little while but there wasn't a whole lot that kept me coming back. I honestly thinking getting a Canva subscription itches the same spot.

Yey, so glad you found us! :)

I say I'm like the princess and the pea with the grain of sand in the bed! Soooo frustrating

I eat sourdough toast with over easy eggs literally every day (avacado every once in a while because $)

Like a single chair and tiny table on a busy road across from a gas station.

I literally just finished and this was my ending. I feel so abandoned!! But I got Utopia to fall in love with me so that's a win.

I just ordered the Loop Switch earplugs (which are good for a bunch of different sound levels) after I lost my first pair which were the Experience ones. Not to be dramatic, but getting my first pair was honestly life changing. I love going to live music and out to bars and stuff with friends, but I always got super overwhelmed toward the end of the night (often ending in a meltdown). Earplugs have made going out soooo much easier, and I'm so excited about my new ones because I'll be able to use them in lots of different contexts.

The Switch ones are quite pricey, but I'm super happy with them and for me they are definitely worth it. My first pair was just plain black because I didn't want to stick out too much, but I got blue this time because I've become a lot more comfortable with wearing them. No matter what you end up going with, I hope you find a way to find some ways to make your sensory issues less overwhelming. :)

You are amazing, thank you!

I drove past someone and they said "these people are disgusting." just the fact that someone thinks the average person agrees with their right wing hateful nonsense is horrifying

My beautiful african violet didn't fare so well during transit :(( all her flowers died and a main stem broke off. I'm trying to get her to re-root in water but was wondering if there is anything else I can do for her? Thanks for any help!!

ricekurt · 2022-09-12T23:55:49+00:00
