@sentientdessert @PaganMother got this from someone else here on CoSo, and I hold it close to my heart now. Every time I hear “you must tolerate my intolerance” I remind myself of this:

@fugitive247 Many Home Depot stores have a bin for worn-out flags, and most if not all VFW will take old flags to ensure they're recycled or burned properly.

Americans with wealth and power don't generally care about the middle and lower classes. Even worse, they are doing real damage to the people they don't care about.
But why? Either these well-positioned people are 100 percent out of touch with the realities of middle-class life in our country, or they're contemptuous of those they consider inferior, or they believe so strongly in individual 'freedom' that even the word 'social' is repugnant to them.

To Whom It May Concern:

Today is my 37th Sobriety Anniversary

One thing is certain....had I not gotten sober, I would not still be alive

Onward & Upward!

p.s. I added a screenshot of what I wrote on Facebook. Its a bit too long to string out on here

Begin doing what you want to do now. We are not living in eternity. We have only this moment, sparkling like a star in our hand and melting like a snowflake...

US Senator Katie Britt just introduced a Bill to create a Federal Database of Pregnant People. Yes, this Dystopian AF world is happening now. All hands on deck. This is not a drill.

@fugitive247 On more than one occasion I put the coffee in the water reservoir. That’s also fun when you’re sleep deprived.

@fugitive247 I have a golf hat. It has a Masters ball mark attached to it. A big "hang in there" to you both. 👊

“You know, many of us act as if we should have a Ph.D. in being alive, a Ph.D. in being a human being.

And there's absolutely nothing that suggests that we should know what's going on. This entire experience is a ridiculous, difficult mystery. And I think the most reasonable response as we are drifting through this mystery is to offer ourselves some grace and, by extension, each other.”

I traveled far into the future. I asked survivors what happened. They told me of the bloody wars of mankind over the truth of ancient history. Which of the accounts were true? Star Trek, Star Wars, Marvel, The Lord of the Rings? Even within sects there was in continuous infighting. I explained that these were stories to entertain, sometimes teach a lesson, but none really happened. I barely made it back alive! It's good to back in our enlightened age where people aren't so gullible and hateful.
