I don't think we have to apologize to our younger selves for how things came out, we just have to make sure we're happy where we ended up. Artwork is by Anon. derpibooru.org/image... #mlp #mlpfim #art

It is the old story of the frog in the pot. If the heat is turned up slowly, the frog is cooked without even realizing what has happened.

I don't think people fully comprehend what is happening. We are being priced out of luxury. We are being priced out of normal. a house, car, groceries, childcare, insurance. These weren't extravagant expenses 20 years ago.

I don't get nearly enough credit for all the symptoms I manage to NOT complain about.

I’m at my peak today, feeling great after enjoying some fresh seasonal produce.

"I have nothing to hide." False. You have medical history You have financial behavior You have location patterns You have political views You have relationship data Privacy was never about hiding crimes. It was always about owning your life.

Hey, critters. The media's interested in furries again. As someone who's been in the fandom for well over two decades and has worked as a journalist, here's a quick guide to Dealing With The Press: If a journalist approaches you, SHUT THE FUCK UP SHUT THE FUCK UP SHUT THE FUCK UP SHUT THE FUC

What it sounds like when you’re in public with a phone call on speaker with the volume cranked. Seriously, how can people understand speech with the loud, distorted noises?

This concept was introduced to me as "run the dishwasher twice" and was an important part of my executive functioning recovery as well as my path to self-acceptance.

When I was at one of my lowest (mental) points in life, I couldn't get out of bed some days. I had no energy or motivation and was barely getting by.

I had therapy once per week, and on this particular week I didn't have much to 'bring' to the session. He asked how my week was and I really had nothing to say.

'What are you struggling with?' he asked.

I gestured around me and said 'I dunno man. Life.'

Not satisfied with my answer, he said 'No, what exactly are you worried about right now? What feels overwhelming? When you go home after this session, what issue will be staring at you?'

I knew the answer, but it was so ridiculous that I didn't want to say it. I wanted to have something more substantial.
Something more profound.

But I didn't.

So I told him, 'Honestly? The dishes. It's stupid, I know, but the more I look at them the more I CAN'T do them because I'll have to scrub them before I put them in the dishwasher, because the dishwasher sucks, and I just can't stand and scrub the dishes.'

I felt like an idiot even saying it.

What kind of grown ass woman is undone by a stack of dishes? There are people out there with *actual* problems, and I'm whining to my therapist about dishes?

But he nodded in understanding and then said:

'RUN THE DISHWASHER TWICE.'

I began to tell him that you're not supposed to, but he stopped me.

'Why the hell aren't you supposed to? If you don't want to scrub the dishes and your dishwasher sucks, run it twice. Run it three times, who cares?! Rules do not exist.'

It blew my mind in a way that I don't think I can properly express.

That day, I went home and tossed my smelly dishes haphazardly into the dishwasher and ran it three times.

I felt like I had conquered a dragon.

The next day, I took a shower lying down.

A few days later. I folded my laundry and put them wherever the fuck they fit.

There were no longer arbitrary rules I had to follow, and it gave me the freedom to make accomplishments again.

Now that I'm in a healthier place, I rinse off my dishes and put them in the dishwasher properly. I shower standing up. I sort my laundry.

But at a time when living was a struggle instead of a blessing, I learned an incredibly important lesson:

THERE ARE NO RULES. RUN THE DISHWASHER TWICE!!!"

Friends and family and doctors need to start encouraging us to stop pushing ourselves and pretending we are ok. If they aren't they need to be reminded that it is not about them.

I have a chronic illness. I'm not giving you a hard time. I'm having a hard time.

Dear Amazon: these artificial shipping delays for those of us that don’t pay for Prime are getting to be outrageous. If you can get an item to a subscriber in two or less days, you can get it there to someone who doesn’t want to (or can’t!) subscribe in less than 10. It’s BS and everyone knows it. 🧵

Happy Pride to all the disabled queer people we dismiss.

Happy Pride to the queer disabled wheelchair users who can’t get in to the event, to the trans disabled queer person who can’t express their true selves, to the fat disabled queer who is dismissed, to the Deaf disabled queer who can’t communicate because learning ASL is “too hard”. I see you all. Holding space for you this month my lovelies.
