mcdonal is doing the monopoly thing again and if you didn't know, it's considered a sweepstakes which means they need what's called an "alternative method of entry" for people who don't want to pay. you can request free game pieces (which occasionally are free food) 5 times per day here

I'm pretty sure my house is haunted.... I go grocery shopping and then like a week later my fridge is completely empty again.

here it is! my CareFax 1.2 update, with a link to a template I made on Canva so you make your own edits, fill it in digitally, or just print copies to try it out with your people IRL.

I would love your feedback and to hear about your experiences if you try it out!

template: bit.ly/3KAAul4

carerax
In a world that profits from our exhaustion and isolation, taking care of each other is a radical act. CareFax is a body-centered friendship tool that helps us emember how to live differently-to build webs of care strong enough to hold us through grief, burnout, and transformation.
CareFax is a starting place for conversations about mutual aid, community care, nd tenderness, designed to help your people show up for you (and you for them) in ways that resist the myth of self-sufficiency.
Because we can't do this all on our own. While corporations and self-help grifters try and sell us the idea that the right thing will cure us or make us happy, what we actually need is each other. start your own carerax:
Gather your friends, family, or community members and fill out your CareFax forms-either together over tea, or on your own time. You can print them and keep them in a binder, or make a digital folder that you can update as your life shifts. You can even keep your own CareFax filled out to share with folks as your relationships grow and blossom.
Over time, your CareFax can become more than a set of forms, but a practice of collective tenderness and interdependence. miigwech, ashley fairbanks find me at ziibiing.com or as ziibing on all socials

Out of curiosity, I took a screenshot of part of my Amazon wishlist a few days ago. I just checked it and only one item is cheaper. Most are the same price, but one with a "prime deal" sticker is more expensive 🤣

Yup. They did it last year too.

I'd bike, but would end up a ball of sweat by the time I arrived (and an ebike isn't in the budget). I'd bus, but after covid both of my express options disappeared, leaving me with a long, crowded ride on which I was robbed the last time I rode.

Love how my 7 mile commute ends up taking 45 minutes if I leave ten minutes later than usual.

It happens last year as well, and I'd heard it was because of the late warm weather

I fully authorized the President to call up 400 members of the Texas National Guard to ensure safety for federal officials.
You can either fully enforce protection for federal employees or get out of the way and let Texas Guard do it.
No Guard can match the training, skill, and expertise of the Texas National Guard.
They defend our country with pride.
America must also know that Texas still has thousands of National Guard assisting with the Border security.

This evening, President Trump is ordering 400 members of the Texas National Guard for deployments to Illinois, Oregon, and other locations within the United States. No officials from the federal government called me directly to discuss or coordin...
