I was once pretty hilarious on Twitter.

Trying to get my funny back.

She/her

#Food #dogs #nature #humor #cooking
pro being a decent human being.

#learning - especially anything in the social sciences

#politics but trying to wean myself from the constant updates

Chicago and the PNW

I just want to laugh and look at pretty things.

@aral it's misogyny. Men hate women more than people think.
I have put my dog down today. She would be 18 next week, I'm so lucky, but so sad, I have so many memories with her, it's like my soul is dying.
@aburtch @ReticentTurnip 🤣🤣 I'll deal with the alternative in that case
is there a pill you can take to become one of those unaware, but happy fools?

Anybody else work remotely and think it might be contributing to some mental health issues?

I can't decide if this is healthy for me or not, but I also have so much driving anxiety

@sand I appreciate this, and please overstep! I have a major problem castastrophizing! And all other intrusive thoughts.

I'm going to go back into therapy soon, as soon as I can convince my ADHD side to set the damn appointment

@BobWilliams good post, I do the same. And almost the opposite too, won't allow myself to feel joy

@ancient_catbus I can't see another path. With how traditional jobs are getting automated away (ideally, this should be a good thing), we are approaching a point where the number of sustainable salaries for average folks will not be sufficient. As a result, folks won't be able to pay their bills without some sort of UBI, OR we have to rethink how our economy works.

Billionaires are going to have to deal with the fact that the system that made them rich doesn't work anymore.

@sand thank you, a real promotion, trying to get out of my own head about it!
@Karstan thank you ❤️
