What's so special
about pie?
It's just warm fruit
swaddled in a
flaky
buttery
mouth-watering crust.
There are better desserts.
It's not chocolate
after all.

This is true, but doesn't go far enough. Humility does not create change. We need to fight for a different life that does not rely on good or bad luck.

I'm going to start putting candy in my pillbox with my meds. Maybe the occasional edible. I don't live with kids, let me have my mid-life fun, Heather.

I'll learn medical coding!
Oh, no one will hire without 3+ yrs exp, & AI is going to take over.
Maybe editing or content writing? I've done it before.
Oh, no one will hire without more exp. Also, AI.
I'm learning things anyways. The world will need people when the AI leopard eats its own face.

I'm not doing Thanksgiving with family or friends, so would it really matter if I ate my special dollar store meal today or on Thursday? Who's really going to know or care? I'll give thanks on whatever day I'm good and ready to, try and stop me.

On 24 Nov 1991, Freddie Mercury died from Aids related bronchial pneumonia. He was just 45. One month later, 'Bohemian Rhapsody' hit the No 1 spot in the UK singles chart, 16 years after after doing so for the 1st time, the 1st single ever to achieve this. #FreddieMercury

How can I
start a new career
when everything
(and I do
mean
everything)
is being taken over
by AI?
What's left
for a disabled girl
to do?

Holy crap. My old stories actually do still exist on Tumblr! I don't remember writing most of them. I guess they'd be called micro-stories or flash fiction now, some might be creative non-fiction. I'm trying to learn about this stuff. I want to be a better writer, even if only for me.

I didn't write for years. Probably not for almost twenty years, and those were silly short stories that might still be somewhere on Tumblr. I don't know that I'll ever make money from writing, and I don't know if I care. But it makes me happy. It makes my heart happy.

Agreed.
This time on Sunday is great for affirmations & goal setting.
By which I mean limbering up to let vague existential disquiet descend into the certainty that life so far has been a pointless, humiliating failure, with all the jaunty inexorability of a slinky pouring arse over arse down a staircase

You absolutely have the constitutional right to record ICE, Border Patrol, or any law enforcement officer in public, and with everything happening in Charlotte right now, people need to understand that clearly.
