@cassandra17lina I mean, if he’s free I got a long list of other honey-dos that could come first…

Plus, the State of North Carolina has a Dem Governor again, and Republicans no longer have a legislative super majority, so their legislation is no longer veto-proof.

@nursefrombirth that is the same mistake made over and over again that allows people who could be joined together by support for Universal Human Rights to instead be divided and conquered.

What do Universal Human Rights look like? The UN addressed that in the wake of WWII .

Woohoo!
It's taken way too long, but the solar+battery system is fully configured and operational.
I've signed up with a company, David Energy, that aggregates customer's batteries and sells the power back to the grid at real time rates rather than low fixed rates.
Kinda cool

Good morning, friends. May the stresses preying upon you prove to be smaller and more manageable than you feared.

Little Miss Attitude and Mr. Tan Man are sleeping paw to paw or butt to butt more often these days.

@Jess That’s pretty much what I just told my inquiring neighbor (my text in green.)

Just because I spent two years volunteering for my county Democratic Party doesn’t mean that I can explain every crazy political decision or election outcome. I’m getting tired of being asked “WTF?” whenever another absurd news story breaks.

@Possum63 This happened to me in Italy and it’s sound advice.

I left that dystopian X Hellscape before it was purchased by He Who Shall Not Be Named and burned the ship that brought me here. Why any of you are still there or agonizing about leaving is unfathomable to me. Get the heck OUT and stop checking back to see whether it’s safe to return. It’s not.

This is one of several chunks of amethyst that I accumulated over the years and gave to my friend who is a believer in the healing power of crystals. She is also a Reiki practitioner. She attended a wellness event for alternative healers last week. The organizers were shocked at how few practitioners attended. The reason that some of them gave for staying away? They are too emotionally depleted after the election to heal anyone and need to focus on healing themselves first.

Or the evergreen:

Friends help you move.
Real friends help you move bodies.

anyone know any aggressively queer small businesses I can buy Pride stuff from? (Looking for a rainbow beanie, specifically)

I have my doubts about this quote being attributed to Richard Nixon, but… I just ran into a very dear friend. I hadn’t seen or spoken with her, but almost simultaneously we said, “I think about you every day.” Upon hearing of my upcoming knee replacement surgery in February, she launched into a list of all the things that she could do for me. I replied that I didn’t need her to “do” anything; what I really needed was for her to “be” with me, sitting in the porch, drinking tea, just “being.”
