Had fun/was worn out playing w/Grandkids at B'day party. Got home late last night. Actually was w/5, not 4; only counted those that were gleefully screaming & running around celebrating 😜The baby, now going on 5mo, was happy to just grab my phone's earplugs that were tied around my neck and try to choke me with them, as he simultaneously grabbed my reading glasses, threw them on the floor while laughing &:babbling because he saw his Grandma!🤷‍♀️🤣I slept most of today; up too early this a.m.

Breathe in savoring O², then out, slowly; imagine exhaling all things angering ya, things ya wanna stop feeling, things ya imagine won't change. While doing it, imagine someone worse off, w/more problems, w/less than ya, w/more tears. How would ya encourage them?

People do that on COSO; encourage others. At least, most days, most do. We're here to talk stuff out, share stuff, & spread voluntary sunshine.

If ya need more, PLEASE also see a professional; it's💯ok to do so🌹

@th3j35t3r Yep! G'Mornin!

I compare this space, which I'm sure I've called "safe" a few times, to a safe & secure house with a fantastic alarm system. You did that!

Just because we come into this technically safe home, doesn't mean everyone inside will always get along as roommates, just that we have titanium walls surrounding us keeping our communications private from the outside.

Folks inside can choose to either help keep it clean & drama free or, bicker/complain/trash it & be evicted.

^^^ 2 of 2 - I can't make it 'safe' with respect to the sensibilities and expectations of everyone who proudly states 'mental illness' (or other special or protected status) in their bio, especially while they proceed to 'thought police' the rest of the community here.

You're on social media, and just like the real world, none of them are your paid therapists.

Everyone gets an equal chance to *not* be an asshole here. Please don't squander it. 🙏

I'm NOT trying to alienate anyone here.

1 of 2 - I have something to say, and I know it's likely to piss some folks off. But I feel I gotta say it.

Some folks seem to think that counter.social is a 'safe space' - and it is - from a TECHNICAL standpoint. Safe from bots, hackers, mis and disinformation, web archivers and scrapers, foreign influence operations and other nefarious cyber shenanigans.

However, and this is where it's gonna get gnarly....

@janallmac I've missed lots & lots & LOTS of posts 🤣, so no worries Glad to see you as well❣️

@janallmac As usual I can't wake up/go to 💤 w/o some drama! Sometimes unbelievable & funny stuff that if we hadn't seen it ourselves🤷‍♀️, sometimes dramatic scary stuff. If not here, then wherever I go it seems!

We sat at store once🤔 actually same one robbed awhile ago... eating chicken in the truck and a team of SWAT, 🚓, 🔥, and, 🚑 swarmed in and surrounded a nearby car. Hubs freaked because😶tags/insurance out(only drive a couple of blocks & rarely)

Can't beat dinner & a live show I say!😅

Happy ! Up since 4:30 👂 to scanner, and, sipping coffee, while listening to drunk neighbors up the street who've been partying all dern night b....

Pardon. Had to stop mid-post; as I walked onto porch, ☕ in hand, heard a gunshot, a man yelling "Put the gun down!" and a woman laughing hysterically.

Sitting in house listening instead. Seems to be the wisest option 😜 No cops'll come; too busy at the ⛽ station further up the street that's being robbed🤦‍♀️


Howdy Folks! Hoping all is well.

Currently in a room full of young kids going every which way; 4 of my Grands at once😜

Oldest Grandson just turned 7! Check you all later! Whew;

Howdy Folks!❤️ Just on here bring nosey a little while. Been cutting tree limbs down; ugh hard work that leaves me in excruciating pain, but resting now.

Hubs still recovering from hernia mesh surgery, so he still can't do too much of anything before he has to sit; Dr visit in a few weeks.

Just a lil bit windy day here; majority of storm way east of us. Praying everyone who was/is in path are ok?! 🤞🙏

Anywho, enough yakkin; gotta get my 🕵️‍♀️on😜😁

I forgot I had this account. I am mostly on Threads and Mastodon now. My handle on Threads is rhinestone_squirrel. My handle on Mastodon is @[email protected]. I will probably update this account to some form of "rhinestone squirrel," too. I am completely off of the artist formerly known as Twitter. Ol' Muskie-Poo isn't going to get the benefit of my "engagement" on his Nazi site. Cheers! I'll try to be more active here.

Sitting around watching TV, off to bed soon; Gabapentin is more like a sleeping pill than for pain, to me; ugh

Untitled ; one of my '5 minute poems' I do when thinking too hard & bored & just gotta throw thoughts on paper🤔(cellphone notes actually, because, technology 😜)

inspired by @Lingitta ; ya got me thinking ❤️
