i think this is one of the most exhausting aspects of the rot infesting everything: not everything has to, or should, turn a profit.

the only local option to watch the seattle mariners locally is root sports. the app freezes twice an inning. live is the only option; no pausing. 15% of the time it’s full on “spinning wheel of death”. no friday games. $20 a month.

You will ask yourself—does anything matter? You will wonder if the protests mean anything, if resistance means anything. It does. They do. I know how it feels, but don’t give up. It took a decade to oust Nazis. Many, many decades to end slavery. Resistance is long and difficult. But it is the way.

it might seem unrelated, but as a yoga teacher folx are always trying to get me to knock goat yoga, etc. why? it’s harmless, probably fun, and maybe after they feel more comfortable checking out a regular yoga class, which is really good for them, but sometimes scary to try. gate keeping is weird.

There’s a degree of financial privilege one has by virtue of being non disabled. The ability to work, to not have to spend hundreds of dollars on medical supplies… it all adds up. When you’re disabled the system forces you to remain below the poverty line, which just makes a person sicker.

they’ve done some studies on “wearing dogs out through exercise” and it turns out to be pretty ineffective. they’ve evolved to be active, so a dog adjusts to the new workload way faster than a person can increase it. it’s still really good for them, obviously, but doesn’t do much for behavior.

Disability is not a moral failing. It can’t be prevented with healthy living, prayer, or wellness culture. It’s a natural part of life. If you live long enough, you will more than likely experience disability. We should all be fighting for better social supports, inclusion and accommodation.

😌🪷 you might want to consider not reflexively replying to people who disagree with you with instant bile. it isn’t good for your health.

i stayed home to care for myself today after a rough weekend with grandma. caring for a family member with dementia is hard enough, but lots of us are also dealing with someone who is manipulative, narcissistic, or just plain mean. it’s dehumanizing, hurtful, and frustrating.

I’m a strong, stubborn lady, but would legit be dead without my antidepressants…multiple times over. it can’t make the current moment less of a river of shit, but it might give you few more spoons so you don’t drown in it. our survival IS resistance. 🪷
