Ok, who’s on my team for the (entirely fictional) cheese heist?
Your daily affirmation:
The book of your life is not yet written, so there's still time to add a speedboat chase and a daring heist of the World Cheese Vault.

I had a chemistry professor once describe how he got out of a fight by drunkenly and loudly reciting shakespeare (I believe it was The Scottish Play) to startle them by appearing crazy until he could get away
In the event you are in close quarters against someone with a weapon, and you are surprised by this, the best thing you can do is try to talk you way out of it. If you absolutely have to get physical… whatever you train is insufficient if the other person is bigger, faster, and/or stronger.

I’ve studied martial arts on and off (currently off) since I was about 8. They *always* teach fight avoidance and running away as the first courses of action. I’ve *taught* self defense classes about how to avoid fights or get away at the first opportunity.
Yup. Anyone with any decent amount of skill and training doesn't usually want to fight. We know better. 😅
I never took it but a bunch of my college friends did jiu-jitsu and the first thing they taught you was how to open in any real fight, which was to put up your hands and say “hey man, I don’t want any trouble”

Shout out to @rahaeli.bsky.social who is the reason I met my beloved @ravensnpennies.com If we had not both been following Raheli I would never have run into CR’s account and never followed him, then messaged him, then visited him, then loved him. You changed my life Raheli, thank you.

This means hope can be a cassowary and straight up be a dinosaur that guts a b*tch. Even though it eats plants. Or hope can be a murder of crows that will pass on inherited grudges.
‘HOPE IS THE THING WITH FEATHERS,’ EMILY DICKINSON
famously wrote, and that often leads to pictures of doves sitting quietly and looking sweet, but what if hope is an albatross that can soar for years without stopping, or an osprey that can haul a thrashing salmon out of rough waters?

This thread is huge and important and bearing witness is so hard.
a thing I am thinking about a lot in these days:
I think part of being a decent human is standing in humility before the needs you personally cannot meet, while not letting despair or frantic anxiety force you to ignore the unending need.

Seriously this is one of my favorite books. Excellent cyber punk vibes but also a meditation of poverty, hard choices, abortion and motherhood.

Is tardigrade mercury better or worse than retrofitted mercury?
Mercury is tardigrade. Yes, the whole planet has turned into a micro-animal and all our horoscopes are waaaaaay out of whack.

Back in 2016 I made the decision that in the face of rising fascism I was going to love the world more fiercely. I was gonna love with a big heart, with gifts, smiles, kind words, plates of food, and deep sincerity. I was going to love the world into being better.
There is not a day where love doesn't help just a little. Where kindness won't matter. Kindness and love always matter.
I care to my marrow, and I love when people let me. I love when people respond in kind. Share in kind. Show in kind.
Things are ghastly. Love out loud. Share the good stuff.

I am the mild mannered enby who unexpectedly sporks you in the kidney if you are an asshat.
Be a force for good in the world if you can.
After that, be a wrathful sea witch or an avenging shadow of the old forest, or something cool like that.

Seriously, the fictional radicalizing of NSA Brad such that we spontaneously riff microfics about how he reminds his coworkers to drink water and take their meds and has a secret sticker collection is delightful.
For those who don't know the backstory of NSA Brad, he is the NSA agent tasked with figuring out why the romance authors are googling wild shit this week, and he has a deep twitter lore and was immortalized in @alyssacolelit.bsky.social's runaway bestseller When No One Is Watching.

I have watched @mostlybree.kitrocha.com REPEATEDLY logistic the fuck out of the universe. Bree has this amazing ability to set a goal, recruit the most talented spreadsheet nerds, and Get Shit Done. She can make a professional quartermaster weep in organizational envy. It’s all volunteer though.
Tho I will say, in his defense, he's not the first person to be confused by how quickly the romance authors & readers can whip up finely tuned logistics out of nothing. 😂
I mostly just stay off Twitter altogether but after double checking that the Walter Hudson post was still up I ran across this and just had to share so the Romancelandians who bought hand warmers could hear about the PROFESSIONAL GRADE LOGISTICS.

I am seeing quite a few nurses calling for a nationwide strike over the killing of Alex Pretti. I think we are seeing one of the largest workforces being radicalized before our very eyes.
