I wish mental health disorders were seen by everyone as the invisible disability that they are. I had someone last week tell me that I shouldn’t write about my bipolar here where I’m identifiable and I’m like … if you had an arm chopped off in your 30s do you think it would ever come up?

love ya, Renoir, but this was a pretty tricky puzzle to build - sooo many dark sections 😵‍💫🤩 #puzzles #impressionism #art

Completed 1000 piece jigsaw puzzle of Renoir's 1876 impressionist painting titled Dance at Le Moulin de Gallette

It depicts a bustling nineteenth Parisian scene of working class people dressed up in flowing dresses, suits, top hats and boater hats to dance in the streets in the leafy Montmartre district

In the foreground is a woman in a light blue and white striped dress with frilly lace cuffs sitting on a dark turquoise wooden bench, her bent arm leaning over it as she turns to face a suited gentleman with brown hair seated on a yellow wooden cross barred chair with his back to the viewer. A second woman in a dark dress and black and white lace headband and white lace collar is behind her, resting her hand on the seated woman's shoulder

To the right are two dapper gentleman seated at a round dark turquoise table with drinks glasses and bottle on it

Various couples are dancing in the centre left and swathes of dancers, tall leafy trees and hanging glass bulbs fill the background

100% cosign with Deral. Those of us who are neurodivergent, LGBTQIA+, and/or properly wearing respirators during the still ongoing Covid pandemic are "weird." You don't stop fascism by upholding social norms. Evil people (GOP, Dems, billionaires) aren't "weird," they're EVIL.

This one red leaf, which will soften to green, is so beautiful. And they’re so big!

A stem of a plant I’m holding to keep it still in the wind. You can see that the leaves are large and waxy. The leaf in the top of the picture is quite red, and the leaves below it are green.

As I see it, this is deeply, profoundly fucked up. Why? Because of all the things people might put on paper, a fan letter is supposed to come from the unique place of an individual expressing their own true emotions. Writing it with AI substitutes machine bullshit for a human emotional connection.

If you’re going to engage in characterizing MAGA as “weird,” it’s best to focus on the leaders, influencers, and policies, not random Trump supporters doing bizarre things. The point is to delegitimize the movement to reduce its power, not to mock the powerless. (Always punch up, not down.)
