Me, leaning into Roo: I love you. Even though you stole the top bread of my sandwich again.

Roo, looks up at me and licks her chops at the mention of my sandwich.

Me, rn, getting better internet service using my phone as a hotspot than I generally get from the ISP I pay more for.
My ISP trying to sell me 2 other services that are supposed to help me make sure I actually get the service I'm already paying for.

When the queasiness of your after-breakfast pills starts to hit, and you remember the reason you didn't take them earlier than you did was because you hadn't actually eaten breakfast.

I could live my life as a disabled person without the constant fear a biased review could cost me my only source of income. Without that anxiety, I would have the energy to care for myself properly, and maybe give a little back to my community too.
Honest question: If everyone got Universal Basic Income, no strings attached, what would YOU do with it?

I’ve long wanted to start a worker owned cooperative designing and manufacturing pinball machines, and also serving as a sort of maker space for people with a machine they want to build. I’ve given up under the current circumstances but I think UBI could make it possible.

Remember when Amazon held a sale during Independent Bookstore Day in an effort to undercut indie bookstores?

We didn’t forget. Support local bookstores during Small Business Saturday and beyond.

Absolutely bloody love this guy. He’s not my favourite Doctor (sorry David, but Jon Pertwee and Patrick Troughton are both so epic in the role) but as a person, he can’t be beaten and honestly, that’s more important.
"In recent history, the Doctor Who actor has repeatedly made headlines thanks to his allyship towards trans and gender non-conforming people – most notably with a subtle gesture during a TV interview that wound up helping to raise £18,000 for the LGBTQ+ youth charity AKT."

Fun fact, indie booksellers are always happy to order books, even if they don't have them in stock, for you to pick up in-store or have shipped. Heck, you can even ask faraway indie bookstores to ship a book, or you can purchase through bookshop.org and support indies across the US and the UK!

"Mustafa served alongside the United States military in Afghanistan. Like so many other Afghans who helped American forces, he later came to the US for its promise of refuge. When I met him recently, though, he had only just left an ICE detention center after months behind bars."
The US Let Afghanistan Fall. Now It's Deporting Afghans.
As the Trump administration escalates deportations, tens of thousands of Afghans are in the US without permanent legal protections.

"It needs to be right for both of us. Or it won't be right for either of us. I don't want that. Do you?"

The FBI spent a million dollars redacting powerful men's names from the Epstein files. The victims? Twenty-eight names in one document alone unredacted, exposed, hunted down by reporters in front of their children. Privacy, it seems, is reserved for those who can afford to return the favor.

I'm at the point where she's so active in the evening, I'm wondering if I let her nap too much during the day lolsob.

For the day of mourning yesterday, we watched this film I got at the library called Eureka, which is a triptych of native cultures in the western hemisphere in different time periods. It was interesting, gives you a lot to think about.
