I have filters for Wordle and wordle that don’t require full-word match, so how do this guy’s Wordle toots still squeeze through? I’ve got a lot of “Filtered”s on my Comm FH today, thank you. This seems to be the one exception. @th3j35t3r

Oh, btw, good morning! #GuineaPigs #video #Short

@YouInMyEye Bishop Desmond Tutu said they used two questions when teaching children self discipline:

“Was it kind?”
“Was it necessary?”

He then suggested in the next paragraph of the book (Made for Goodness and Why This Makes All the Difference, written with his daughter Mpho) that the world would be a much better place if adults stopped to consider these same two questions before they spoke or acted.

From your lips, brother.

@FernLovebond Awwww, thank you!!!!! That is definitely a pay it forward video, isn’t it? Bless you, sweetie. *safe hugs*

@misterfive *safe hugs* I honestly don’t know how I escaped the anorexia-bulimia crisis in people my age during my college years. Someone was watching over me.

Be well and love yourself because you were loved before you were even in the womb. 😘❤️🤗

There. Just sent sis a text. Today will, I hope, be a new day. (Sending her a text is the only way to get through uninterrupted.)

Its butt.

While we were still on our way home from the airport, my sister started in on my eating habits. Like, complete and utter shaming. I’m, like, WTF, dude? We’re here to take stress off Mom, not add to it! She and I were pretty much arguing sporadically the rest of the night, and at one point Mom gave me a pitying look with tears in her eyes. Dad used to do this to her & me both, and obesity comes mostly from her family (tho Dad’s mom & her sibs all had diabetes).

My sister got here safely, we all got here safely. Dad opened his eyes a couple times and spoke a *tiny* bit (one of his former Boy Scouts dropped in, too), but for the most part he kept his eyes closed and sawed logs with a chainsaw in serious need of a muffler, lol.

@Mandypar Vaping is more dangerous than smoking! Please stop spreading false information about products that are dangerously addictive.

@thewebrecluse *safe hugs* I am still living with chronic pain due to degenerative arthritis with spurring and a slightly slipped disk in my lumbar spine. Not only is the pain depressing, but so is people’s “just power through it” attitudes. I completely understand why you’re still triggered. Have you tried focusing on slowing your breathing and slowly relaxing your head, neck, shoulders, arms, torso, buttocks, hips, thighs, knees, ankles, and feet while breathing slowly?

Anyone else noticing people following them here who toot nothing but self promos, kind of like that other place from which we came here to get away from all that type of garbage? Example: Just because I’m a writer doesn’t mean I want all the authors following me who toot nothing but book promos. Put one ad on each of your HTML profile pages, not continuously run ads here, please. That’s spamming.

Anxiously awaiting Mom’s alarm so I can hop in the shower (1st step in perking up), talk to her about our planned day, and then get a coffee (final step)!!!
