Reading a post about Tumblr alternatives and one app had "Chinese origin" under the cons. While this may be something people would like to have pointed out, when I reflect on the well-known US-owned apps I can't help feeling I'd like to be warned when apps are from the US as well...😅😏

After all this time living in my childhood home, we might (might!) be moving very suddenly and very very soon. I didn't think it would happen so quickly and I'm hit with the sorrow of leaving the home with all the memories of my Mum. I thought the stress & effort of moving would be the hard thing, I thought I would have a little more warning to give my time to adjust. Instead I find myself not coping well with losing this connection. I hadn't realised just how much a comfort it's been.

Wow, this is hilarious. So glad it appeared on my fb timeline! 😅

Life is so hard when I'm trying to bop my head to music and eat popcorn at the same time. These actions are not compatible.

(Serious life problems.)

So sad that Book Depository closed. Well, sad that it was taken over by Amazon in the first place, I guess. It used to be my favourite online bookstore.

This kind of guilt is a leech. I grant you freedom from it :glittery_vixeny_good_witch_of_the_north_wand_looking_emoji:

Do you til you can do more💙 and not before

All my care is currently focused on self-care. This is necessary for me. Getting through each day and attempting to gradually do more than just getting through the day takes up all of my caring. But I feel guilty that I don't have care to spare for things beyond that.

And that is my current reality, so I try my best to be at accepting of that.

Apparently we are having a referendum. I almost didn't notice. Oops...

(living in a bubble/time to get some facts)

Also: Using "SM" for social media...or for anything...is too easily associated with something else. I'm not talking about that, OK??? 😅

The affirmation from people responding to my social media posts can be addictive...Sometimes it's nice just to send thoughts out into the aether imagining that someone will read them, without actually knowing that they have.

Zombie training update: 7am walk after no sleep. Half my body is in pain if I go too long without stretching and loosening it with a walk.
And going for a walk makes the other half cry with pain.
Progression to full-time Zombie well on the way! 🧟‍♀️

I'm new to CoSo and am also trying out Gettr...and woah, uneducated political "commentary" (propaganda) taking up 100% of recommendations and most of topic search results on Gettr. Why does a search for "anime" related content give me mainly transphobic scaremongering and camgirls?? 😭

And it looked like such a friendly app.

Trying so hard not to take painkillers for the Nth day in row...looks like I'm gonna fail. OR I could resign myself to a night of painful zombiehood. Probably good prep for the apocalypse since I'd undoubtedly among the first chapter's canon fodder...🫠
