I like the fact that I can say, with absolute certainty, where the moon or sun will rise in the sky each day. I love Actual Facts™. Scientific method. Peer reviewed documents. I’m a skeptic, although as we all know, we are absolutely and strongly biased towards those things we want to believe. But with people, politics? No idea. We can only guess. So random.
Whatever it was, you hit the one errant filter that for some reason is bugging out and not dropping. 😹
Oh! Shopping! 😹
What is this “real world” you speak of? 😹
I’ll be spending a lot less time being engaged the next four years. I’ll continue to show up to vote, every election, there’s never any confusion about what I vote for. I want to remain physically and mentally okay. So pulling back from that is going to keep me there. Luckily we can #UseTheTools here to curate our own experience. I’ll be absolutely curating my feed aggressively.
It keeps happening, though. Over and over again.
Although I might argue that “didn’t vote” folks are on my shit list too. Apathy ruins democracy.
I was watching Broadchurch a few nights ago and one of the main characters is facing the tremendous loss of her brother. And her boyfriend makes her a “happy place” where she can just go, listen to music, enjoy the lights, dance around. She was sick of being forced to stay at home, both sad but also -expected- to be sad. Sometimes we just need a safe “happy place” to be ourselves. However that manifests. I feel that way about CoSo.
You’re doing fine! Welcome to CoSo!
Was listening to Leslie Jordan’s audiobook and he was talking about how the gay community made it through the AIDS epidemic and ended up being stronger on the other side of things. When they realized the government wasn’t going to do much for them, they turned inward, helped themselves. He also said that true happiness can only come from the selfless service to others. Or something like that. If true happiness is your thing. 😹

Here in Ohio with the touch screens, as you’re pressing buttons, there’s a paper trail audit visible through the window. Everything you do is recorded twice. Any reasonably good auditor would know if something was tampered with.
Maintenance reminder: check your sponge to see if it needs replacing. ❤️
I’m going to start a rumor that @kel owns Keller’s and that’s why he’s so obsessed with turkeys. 😹
