I am reminded today that fragile *people* often have a difficult time accepting responsibility for their own failures, be that professional, dating, family, or friends. With that, I’d like to re-submit my favorite meme.

DYSFUNCTION
THE ONLY CONSISTENT FEATURE OF ALL OF YOUR DISSATISFYING RELATIONSHIPS IS YOU.

Not to brag, but the rest of this pic is pretty hot. I feel so good today. My treatments are working, my hands hardly hurt today, and while my lunch lady arms are far from perfect— I’m down by half my meds, and even look better than I have in years. This is why we all need access to health care.

Stop worrying about how women talk about our survival in a hostile world and start worrying about how your boys are making you look like a goddamned goober. Nobody made Aileen Wournos an icon as much as the men who came after.

The fact that this very old cigarette tastes like a new cigarette is such a great warning that I shouldn’t smoke it, but every free months I just want one. #alonetime

Why is showering such a difficult thing today? It’s been long time since I dropped a bit of kink on my Patreon. I hope a few people join up to read it. Of nothing else, to give me a reason to make more. Especially since I’ve been working on scripts for audio.

Quick reminder that my silly words are nearly always accompanied by gorgeous art. I could never say enough good things about @annijyn.com's art, but I already look forward to my next commission. If you want to see some of those words & art combined, stick around, I have so much more to show you!

Putting together a book of my poetry, and I came across this oldie but still makes me sad-ie. I never did stop with this hurt, actually. Old loves sometimes crawl from the backs of our hearts to sting a little.

A poem I wrote a couple of years ago.

The taste of you and me together that coated my tongue as I lay naked in your arms, my cheek pressed to your skin, keeps me from sleeping
when you're a thousand miles away in someone else's arms, not thinking of me at all.

My deck is so very direct with me. Friday reading

The moon is all about the subconscious— intuition, inspiration, or anxiety or even illusion. Pay attention to what your mind is telling you, but don’t get pulled into a fearful spiral.

Woke up to a message from a dude I don’t know: “I’d sure love to see your pussy” New rule: Pay me. I love y’all but you are not the only (only guys do it) guy asking to see my unshaven goodies, so calm your tits. You want it? Join my Patreon. You want saucy bits? —there’s a tier for that. 💋

Winning and making a stupid face (my hair is up and I’m wearing glasses) for the camera, as I neither believe this will drive traffic to my work, or that it will stem the tide of gross DMs. Man my lips look juicy, tho.

To keep the description shorter (lol it’s so long still), my reading will be in the alt text, rather than a description of each card singly— but this was a banging reading— especially when you add the numerological repetition of the #2 in 3 important positions.

Basic meditation.
The question was regarding my productivity and progression in my craft.

The result was:
Self— knight of wands— pure energy right now I’m feeling productive and capable, so it fits.
Obstacle or help, knight of chalices - love— following one’s heart. In this case, I see it as a boon, if I don’t fight it.
My foundation is the fight. It’s been a nightmare (and some of you have been along for the ride) but my hope is that I can let go of my insecurities, & I’m willing to change my outsourcing and make sacrifices

I’ve been making plans (1st 2) but ahead of me is a decision (or several) it’s time to make choices I’ve been avoiding but getting ready for with all that planning.(2nd 2)
My highlighted sense of self (3rd 2) is finding balance, and time management, which is something I get to make a cool announcement about soon!

The Queen of chalice is a being of compassion and grace— the reading says this is how I’m perceived, and I’m so grateful to the people in my life who know whether or not I am, that’s who I aspire to be.

And while I fear being trapped in my inner person and sabotaging myself, the final outcome suggested by my meditation is inspiration, action, and energy to complete the work.

All in all, not bad for a habit I’d fallen out of.

Good meditation.

Good morning Bsky. I’ve begun a new Monday morning habit— picking fights on fb

Facebook post I wrote this morning:

I'm not anti ai. I'm anti being used once AGAIN as part of an unpaid labor force to make something unnecessary work properly while clean water becomes scarcer, people are losing their jobs, and it's primary use for the men building it out is to fucking control us.
But look how fast people decided they all had to be creatives, as though the potential money is anything close to what 99% of us experience.
Why not simply demand it be developed to make
YOUR job easier?
Because you live in resentment and comparison, throwing yourselves into the idea of being
"better" at something than someone who put in time, effort, and dedication, and gleefully look forward to a time when the people you were jealous of have nothing.
Well, jokes on you. Most of us are already starving, thanks to the men you worship.

Oh! When I was washing them I found this on the bottom. Turns out they were made in 1980 as some kind of special run for Estee Lauder! There are more. I might be a little obsessed. If I ever have discretionary monies— there might be signs.
