Nutria are all over Louisiana. That’s basically the extent of my knowledge.
I got bangs! I was super bored with my hair and decided to take the plunge for the first time in I don’t know, ever? My Facebook break is lingering so no link but maybe I’ll make a special drop by.
I am so not in a good headspace right now.
Same. I didn't sleep very much Monday night, and while I did get a full night's sleep last night, it was full of nightmares.
I did sleep ok last night but had a dream that the house was burning down. lol brain. Way to be super subtle.
Same. I haven’t been sleeping well at all. And some really effed up dreams.
I’m remembering suddenly that my mom had a colleague years ago who was doing a study on masochistic dreaming in divorced men. The theory being that it was one of the brain’s mechanisms for processing pain when the conscious brain was resistant to doing so. (Masochistic meaning “bad things happen to you” in this context.)
Really don’t think that’s our issue though. More like the system is flooded.
I had a dream I fell for a cute and sweet... uh, terrorist, basically? Revolutionary would be kinder. I knew it couldn't actually be a lasting thing, but I snogged him anyway. I felt somewhat ambivalent about it, at least. He gave me blue and pink recycled gum in a container that looked like a mini egg carton, too, so there's that.
I think the universe heard me, because after I posted here, I checked Facebook, and saw a post that this Sunday, several organizations in my neighborhood are having an appropriately named Anti-Despair Resource Fair. Various organizations (mutual aid, reproductive justice, food access, disaster resilience, etc) will be there with ways to get involved. I definitely need this.
I'm also giggling because the post included: "Raffle! All prizes rad!" I can't pass up a chance to win rad prizes, can I?
I need rad prizes. At least *a* rad prize.
Anti-despair fair seems like an excellent plan. I am absolutely remembering some books about 1930s Germany right now and wondering…
I want an anti despair fair.
I was amusing myself by filling out the DoGE application website with various names. And random info. And using a copy of the Constitution as my resume.
It wants 3 bullet points about experience so for Andrew Tater I put alpha male Alpha Male ALPHA MALE.
