Fame is a narcotic

A blinding white star

A foolish illusion
we wanna believe
validates who we are

At the end of the day
when the grease paint
comes off
the mirror confirms
the fool we truly are

Time to face
the reflection
and put on
our clown's facade
for public consumption
even though we know
after the last song is played
and the spotlight fades
the truth we suppress
will come home with us

Happy Monday! Today is a great day to call our #Colorado #Senators and tell them to stop the #BigUglyBill in order to protect democracy and each other. #Action #Call

And yes, this is the year that #GenX people start getting OLD. I know these generation monikers and super American centric and mostly bullshit. But as the youngest of 8 kids with all of my siblings being older boomers, I was glad I had something to differentiate me from the mob. I related to Douglas Copeland's book at the time and really leaned into the GenX dealio.

I'm doing another call out for writers, communications folks, and anybody with the executive function to help organize the presentation of #turtleBower content.

My main writer is out of commission, and I am understanding the value of having diversity and depth, especially in a spoonie team (though everybody is struggling, really). Aiming to have a good number of ppl who are familiar with the material and can then shift in and out as needed.

Boop me if you can help!

To expound: 1) we need to pull together a website to get this stuff out of my brain and out into the world. We'll need help with content creation - especially anybody with executive function and writing skills to take my braindumps and display them with structure so people know what we're doing and how they can engage. This may be the mutual aid of brain spoons where we cobble a bunch of small resources together to get what we need done. So if this calls to you in any way, boop me. 🧵

Welcome to the Age of Inconsiderate
where spoiled brats and selfish bitches
callously routinely infringe
on rights of citizens
under the guise of freedom
for the obnoxious individual

These egotistical
see me narcissists
need to be disciplined
with a paddle
applied to their fat
self centered asses

#OnThisDay, 7 Jun 1968, 187 women working at the Ford car factory in Dagenham, UK, go on strike demanding recognition as skilled workers.

They are led by Rosie Boland and Lil O'Callaghan. After three weeks they win concessions as production had to be shut down. The strike was one of the triggers for the Equal Pay Act 1970 that made it illegal to pay women and men differently if they are doing the same job.
