I keep lying down with the heating pad on my elbow/shoulder to try to relax the muscles before doing my physical therapy exercises and accidentally falling asleep. It's too cozy

I will be honest botox makes me really sad. You're paralyzing the muscles in your own face for WHAT 😭 let people fucking age like humans. beauty standards are evil!

Why am I so tired? A vent piece about my disability. Some of the phrases that make up the lines include: Soften your elbows Engage your core Smile so they don't know Pain You're fine Don't stand up too fast Don't sit like that Relax your jaw Smile Be mindful of your shoulder

A black and white drawing of a person with shoulder length hair and the words "Why am I so tired?" but all of the lines in the drawing are replaced with words describing the person's internal thoughts as a disabled person.

I think it's really funny how every time a content creator posts something political, there are always people commenting who are pissed off and I guess they just don't have any good content creators on the right so they have no choice but to watch leftist creators but be salty about it

They reopened the Alpha News submission form, in case you wanna "help them out." Apparently they're logging IPs, so do your due diligence. I personally think they might enjoy some videos of ICE slipping on ice, but who knows. alphanews.org/send-a-tip/

ICE agents are the scum of the earth I've said it before and I'll say it a million more times. They are spineless maggots infecting communities I know anyone who follows me already agrees but sometimes it just overflows and you have to yell it

Organizers in Twin Cities making rare plea for folks to share broadly: ICE ops have changed & escalated this week. They've moved to a 'flood-the-zone' strategy, nabbing anyone they can from bus stops, the sidewalk, cars, or homes. This means indiscriminate abductions and obviously no warrants.

People use "there's no ethical consumption under capitalism" as a catch all excuse for never trying to do good and having no accountability for their actions it's so tiresome

SO this lady who lives miles away from me in a different neighborhood filed a complaint w/the city that’s now potentially going to get my little free library & little free pantry shut down unless we can amend code to specifically protect site amenities as such pls sign my petition c.org/DRrMJb6Czq

a screen shot of an email that says:

Hi Ace,

There are 1600 food pantries in Palm Beach County. There are meals on wheels. There are a lot of resources. I don’t need crackheads outside at 2 AM getting food from your little pantry and making all kinds of noise on the corner and people dropping off unappropriate food items That bring rats and roaches into the neighborhood. Food pantries make sure all their food is not expired and is up to code. Also people dropping off all kinds of broken items and things like that. Go work at a soup kitchen if you want to help people or do something else and stop putting Black Lives Matter signs and defund the police all lives matter and we need the police we all need order in this world. Not to be mean or condescending, but that little food pantry it needs to go.

I feel very blessed to have been single throughout my adolescence and early 20s. This is probs just ace spec bias but I love that I've never felt any need to be in a relationship and that I've always been satisfied without one. I am so so glad that I developed my sense of self independently
