This kind of messaging is intended to drown moms in research, risk, and responsibility. The goal is to keep them so anxious and so busy that they can't work for pay--especially not in high-powered "mens" jobs--or get involved in any kind of efforts to push for progressive change.

Some nights you just need to curl up into a fetal position under the comforting weight of a crocheted wool blanket made over half a century ago by your late Italian grandmother.

Re-reading and copy-pasting old journal entries into a letter that will take weeks to write and that I will regret sending immediately. This is a good thing.

Something to think about when the ball drops tonight: Per Carl Sagan's "Cosmos": if the 14-billion-year history of the universe was compressed into a single year, human civilization would occupy only the last 14 seconds of December 31st. Cosmic Calendar - Wikipedia share.google/GsP0cYiSPMc7...

With Epstein leaving behind so many clients, it kinda makes me wonder who's currently procuring young girls for the elite. Because I don't think the answer is "nobody".

Before you share a really damning unredacted Epstein doc that totally proves that Person You Hate is a _____, please make sure that it's genuine and not just some bait that right wing trolls have put out there so that all such reports can be discredited, kthxmerryxmas.

Me in 1995: I should write a novel. Me in 2015: Why bother, there are so many more talented writers than me, I have nothing of value to contribute. Me in 2025: Yeah, I should definitely write that novel.

Finally saw The Muppet Christmas Carol and Michael Caine is now one of my top 3 Scrooges. Unlike so many other actors, Caine understood that Scrooge must be played softer at the start; not outright evil, but bitter and lonely and miserable. /1

Happily a longtime friend called me last night to catch up. It made me appreciate friends like that all the more.

The downside of being sentimental about old friends is that some of them have moved on emotionally and leave me on read when I reach out. Therapy gave me tools to deal with the rejection but I have stopped short of purging the sentimentality itself. It hurts, but I still think it's a virtue.

so, i was talking to a friend about treatment-resistance this morning and realized many folks don't know what it is! technically it's when 2+ approved meds don't work, but here's what it means for me, just for context (a non-exhaustive list of stuff that HASN'T worked for my bipolar depression):

- 17 different psychiatric medications (4 of which were antidepressants, and 8 others with recognized antidepressant or mood-stabilizing effects)
- all the OTC supplements and vitamins you can think of (for better or worse. not a recommended route unless in consultation with a professional, btw)
- CBT, talk therapy, behaviorial activation, art therapy
- peer support
- a plethora of various self-help books
- meditation and mindfulness
- exercise (including both intense and yoga-type stuff)
- SAD lamp
- journaling (gratitude, reflective, bullet, and dream)
- spending time outside
- getting enough sleep
- getting less sleep on purpose (on psychatrist's recommendation)
- avoiding alcohol and drugs
- not avoiding drugs (weed, shrooms, and acid are NOT good for me lmao)
- socializing with loved ones
- trying new things; seeking novelty
- embracing routine
- shaking up routine
- eating healthy
- eating whatever i want
- music, video games, tv and movies, reading, creative projects, various other distractions

Regarding "Galaxy Express 999", I never understood why the name of the train was translated into English as "The Three Nine" instead of "The Triple Nine". "The Triple Nine" would follow a pretty solid English convention that includes names like "Double-Oh Seven".

After years and many bottles worth of searching, I *finally* found a 10 year tawny port I like as much as the kind I can't easily get anymore. Quinta da Devesa. Seriously considering buying a case and a cheap little wine fridge to keep it in.

Amazon's Rufus AI is going just great, y'all.

Asking Amazon the same question canned question twice in a row by pressing the "Does [this drone] have a camera?" button twice yields two opposite answers: (1) Yes it does (with a bunch of camera specs) and (2) No it does not.

Awesome job, Amazon. i0/IO. No notes. Yes notes.

I fully believe that the "architects of AI" know they are grifting. They know how their tech works, so they understand that a population increasingly reliant on their tech means the tech will inevitably worsen. (1/3)

I wanted to like the BSG reboot but the production design and character names were just "circa 2000 Americans in spaaaaace" and sorry but I like a bit more creative worldbuilding in my sci-fi. Final straw was hot gal no one knew was a Cylon despite her having a glowing red spine during sexytimes.

People out there saying "lol she doesn't seem to have reformed", and I'm like... dudes, she went to the *right* of Trump, towards Nick Fuentes and the Groypers. Stop assuming there are just two fucking teams in this game, and that MAGA is the rightmost horizon.

Being unable to tolerate frustration + chasing social media clout gotta be a big reason why ppl jumped on the gen ai machine to churn out slop

Tumblr post from eldritchdilf-deactivated2025061:
"Contrary to popular belief the biggest beginner's roadblock to art isn't even technical skill it's frustration tolerance, especially in the age of social media. It hurts and the frustration is endless but you must build the frustration tolerance equivalent to a roach's capacity to survive a nuclear explosion. That's how you build on the technical skill. Throw that "won't even start because I'm afraid it won't be perfect" shit out the window. Just do it. Just start. Good luck."
