I need an adult to kindly tell me that I'm not allowed to lick the salt off of the expensive salted nuts, then just throw the soggy, plain nuts into the green bin.

Acknowledging personal limitations is okay. Avoiding things that hurt you is okay. Admitting that sometimes you cannot help is okay.

What's the difference between capitalism & socialism?
In a capitalist society, man exploits man.
In a socialist society, it's the other way around.

It makes me sad when I want a book that isn't available to purchase through Kobo. 99.9% of the time, I only buy/read a book if it's available through Kobo.

Buying books & reading books are two different hobbies. I'm lucky to love both, & very lucky that my employer gives me money every year to buy books 📚💰

✅️Talk about it in detail=Good. Do it.
✅️Share important media=Good. Do it.
✅️Hold those monsters accountable=Good. Do it.
❌️Show snuff films in public to people who don't know & haven't consented=Bad. Probably don't do it.

I gave myself hiccups from laughter
This wheel is to the boy squirrel the way that the football is to Charlie Brown and it still makes me laugh every time he tries to use it only to be immediately spun.

I did not realise I missed anything or anyone from Twitter, which I left years ago, until the absolute joy I felt at seeing @revdaniel.bsky.social just now 😊
He will have no idea who I am, & that's okay. You don't have to be close with someone to appreciate who they are.

Plus, now I get to hear him verbally arguing with hippies who cannot hear him.
"It's not gonna cure cancer, it's a loaf of bread!"
"Okay, I can't read this one anymore. This person thinks they can train yeast. IT IS FUNGUS YOU CANNOT TEACH IT ANYTHING!"
"Put the smoky quartz away, Stephanie."

Sometimes I see a thing online that is very funny, but I keep it to myself, because both ridiculous sides of the nonsense war would find common ground in loathing me for finding it funny.

You’re going to be okay. Someone will hate your book. You’re going to be okay. Someone will not get what you’re trying to do with your art and judge you. You’re going to be okay. You’re going to keep creating, in 2026, because you need it and because the world needs you to. Okay?

My favourite book in 2025 that was new to me is definitely Strange Pictures by Uketsu. I read it through, then read it out loud to my partner, then read it again one more time a few months later.

In Canada, they'll withhold maple syrup rations for up to 12 months for this sort of offense.
I am, however, allowed to toot my own horn a little bit. I'm 61% of the way through a book I'll finish tonight, & it's the last one I need to meet my 2025 reading goal! 📖🥰

The number of books I've read this year is actually a state secret, so I won't be sharing. Sorry.
