My local library allows you to get a same-day ecard to access the digital library! Worth looking into, if like me, you are more inclined to borrow ebooks/audiobooks versus physical materials

And sometimes all you need to feel hopeful and joyful again is a lord of the rings themed cocktail evening on a Monday 🙌🏽

Some local businesses are giving out free coffee or encouraging activities at their store without the obligation of spending. Worthwhile to go and support small businesses on blackout day (without spending)

If you see a goth looking sad, it’s probably because goth jewelry tends to be covered in snags despite most goth clothes being eminently snaggable

Made the mistake of checking the news. That’s honestly on me.

Not even a big deal esp since it’s not life-threatening!!! But the hair loss I’m experiencing bc of this tumor is sending my self esteem down the drain (along with clumps of my hair). I spent years growing it out, but looks like I’m going to try out shorter styles for the time being 🙂‍↕️

Idk who needs to hear this, but Costco does same day grocery delivery via Instacart and can also ship things to you (non perishables and lots of other stuff) Their online store has lots of the kind of stuff you might buy at target

It’s clear as day: I will only be buying locally, second-hand, or directly from brands of choice. Probably better for my wallet anyway if I’m only buying what I need and not overspending at you-know-where 💁🏽‍♀️

I cannot overemphasize the importance of COMMUNITY ✨ Creating Community, finding joy with others, laughing & commiserating together. I had several meetings with colleagues today and while we had no answers, we just shared space. Now I’m going to happy hour with my closest friend b/c Community ✨

Being in the @blackinneuro.bsky.social community and also having worked with leadership and organizers, all I can say is how amazing it is to see how far it’s come! I met some of the best people including @therealdrdukes.bsky.social! Proud of you, friend 😭🖤

I’ve been in the DMV for 2 yrs and still feel like I just got here. Thankfully, I’m moving to an area that seems more community-centered and I’m looking forward to becoming more involved 🙌🏽

It’s been about a month since I adopted and brought home an absolute menace to society. Zora Jones loves hair ties, communicates with aliens (???) in the night, attacks any and everything, steps all over me, and watches my every waking moment. I’ve not known a moment of peace…and yet I love her 😭🖤

In the past, I had a library card, used Libby, and attended classes and workshops. Got busy with grad school and then stopped! It’s been years, but I’m going to get my library card where I live now! Libraries are actually v cool - make it a goal, everyone 🖤

Bipolar lows are incredibly debilitating especially when treatment plans are in flux. The things you could manage while in a high-functioning state become insurmountable tasks and it’s hard to contend with the fact that, just a few short days ago, life was swell.
