Ever see the Woody Woodpecker episode wherein the phrase “Had Woody gone to the police, none of this would have happened?” Maybe if Joel took covid seriously he’d still have full use of his mental faculties.

“It affects your balance, it affects your memory, it affects your vision, your hearing. But I’m OK. They call it a brain disorder, but it’s not that serious.” He can’t drive or perform—I guess I have different ideas of what constitutes “not that serious.”

But this being America there will still be assholes who will ignore the sign, enter the facility & spread it to others because their perceived “rights” or choice is more important than minimizing spread of a potentially deadly disease.

One more day feeling shell shocked & avoidant, and wondering what it will take for me to reset my energy & emotional regulation.

In stores that have humans at the register as well as self check out, I always will wait for a human to ring up my groceries. I refuse to be forced to pay a premium on groceries & then the store benefits from my unpaid labor to check out on my own.

There are imo several things wrong with the Covid messaging : 1. Getting repeatedly sick is not making you healthier- Covid damages the immune system and is also vascular. 2. It’s airborne and they are still not telling the Public how to prevent airborne infections. 3. A seemingly ‘mild’ acute 🧵

The advice for Covid is inadequate. FRSM masks have gaps. To protect you need respirators that seal to the face. Open windows! Clean the air! Ffp2/3

Yup, I call it the post-interaction “debrief,” the things that were said & how I should have responded differently. I have been feeling this way for years and only today was I able to acknowledge & articulate what it was I was feeling & experiencing.

Cognitive distortions & imposter syndrome are a real bitch. Not a weakness, it is more common than you might imagine. Want my own personal mantra I say repeatedly to blot the distortion of the moment out of my head?

I am sad you had a similar experience🩷 Normally I can shake it off in a day, but the visit was Friday and I am still feeling depleted.

I had acupuncture, then a quick trip to Trader Joe’s & right now I am sitting in the Sam’s Club parking lot trying to will myself to walk inside and get my covid vax, and I can’t summon the energy. This person really exhausted me & my trauma response is to shut down in the moment rather than…

Even my acupuncturist could sense something wrong with me or my energy today. We commiserated about the same exact vexation with certain friends who just rob us of our energy.

…when I can resume socializing with others. The older I get, he more challenging it is to find & cultivate new friendships, I don’t want to dispose of this person; however, over time she has gotten very loud, crass, and aggressive, and my c-ptsd lizard brain gets overloaded after our visits.

Feeling very avoidant today, I even want to avoid acupuncture & my planned activities today. A visit on Friday has left me feeling anxious, exhausted & more than a bit disgusted. Fortunately the weather is getting chilly & soon I’ll be in hibernation mode, buying me 200+ days until Spring thaw…

Open them all up and if possible set them outside in the sun for a day or two—maybe it might help offgas the stink.

Maybe they brought him on as host was a calculated move to get people talking about the show—any publicity (even bad) is still publicity. Still? Pretty shitty and on-brand for SNL.

I get a knot in my gut whenever I bring up Modi. amy husband is from Tamil Nadu originally and acts as if I don’t know what I’m talking about when I lump Modi into the same pile as Orban, Erdogan, and Trump. Not sure what it will take for him to see it.

We have had our air fryer for nearly 6 years & occasionally it lets me know it will need to be replaced soon. I bought its replacement & will unbox it the day the current one finally dies.
