The American obsession with forcing retail and to other public-facing workers to stand is directly downstream of Protestantism and eugenics

Sometimes having ADHD is like living in an exciting, hilarious melodrama, and sometimes it's like living in a cheesy, eye-rollingly bad melodrama.

I'm a fan of the Friends To Lovers trope, but even better is Friends Who Dig Each Other But Care About Each Other Enough To Not Rush Into Anything Romantic Until They Know They're Both Ready.

And really, she was the epitome of what an American can be at their best: yes, ostensibly superficial, but humble, with quiet depths; genuinely friendly and warm, and endlessly generous and giving. I don’t really believe in having role models, but I wouldn’t mind if more people had hers as theirs.

Sometimes, when someone dies, what helps me is thinking about how wonderful it is that they were even alive in the first place. Dolly was the closest you could get to an American saint. We all loved her.

There was honestly a part of me that thought she'd live forever. I'm so, so sad she's left us. But she will live on through her music, her benevolence, her spirit, all the lives she touched.

Xanax is good for more then just anxiety. It also helps when you're swooning hard for someone and your emotional dysregulation won't let you calm down.

We live in capitalism. Its power seems inescapable. So did the divine right of kings. Any human power can be resisted and changed by human beings. Resistance and change often begin in art, and very often in our art, the art of words.

For so much of my life, I've felt like people like me when they first meet me, but after hanging out with me more and getting to know me more, they grow to dislike me. I'm so very grateful for the people who have stuck with me for a long time.

I work at a public library. People who want to use AI seem to have no trouble doing so. People who don't want to use AI have a harder time.
