What horror films are we watching?
Been up all night.
Still awake.
Not tonight, but soon.
I think I should get drunk. Might be cathartic.
Depression is rage spread thin. —George Santayana
It’s midnight. I can’t stay keyed-up and outraged all the time. I have to sleep at some point.
USPS ONLY allows mailing cremated remains in a special EXPRESS box. I can't get meds, glasses, ECHO for my aneurysm, etc. I have mom's memorial expenses. Would be grateful for help & meals. Exhausted. www.paypal.com/paypalme/kar... venmo: KARRIE-HIGGINS-2 helphopelive.org/campaign/159...
This got moving again! Blue states are forming coalitions ... lots of vulnerable people who DID NOT VOTE FOR THIS SHIT are stuck in red states. Please don't leave them behind. www.gofundme.com/f/lgbtq-fami...

Hello dears Jamal from Gaza whose family lost everything and he is trying with all his might to rebuild their lives and help them with the crazy costs in Gaza and travel outside Gaza when the crossings open. I hope you support us. Your little support, even if it is $5 chuffed.org/project/1389...
Sketch was spoofing this: www.youtube.com/watch?v=OH0z...
It was in a Chappelle’s Show skit first season.

I got one on Twitter once for replying to something anti-vaccine “may you be bit by something rabid.” Think it was Jim Jordan during the height of Covid.
What, the crapping himself to death at a rally?

Couldn’t get a Covid shot today.
Maybe I should buy sleeping pills today.
I still think Faster Pussycat Kill Kill is a contender for top film. www.youtube.com/watch?v=cUeX...
It’s a rough one. Not the kind you want to watch a lot.
Why am I still up?
Been years, but I remember it being really good. Remember when Lisa Bonet left The Cosby Show to star in AngelHeart?
What they try here first in Florida they take on the road elsewhere. www.epa.gov/radiation/ph... Enjoy the radioactive highways.

Good to know.
My cousin’s kid was playing “school” with a nerf gun. We didn’t wait till kids played “post office” that way in the 90s. We had an assault weapon ban from 1994-2004 and only one Columbine during it. Now we have one a week it seems.
Half alcohol and half vinegar.
Fisherman’s Friend cough drops are the best for a sore throat. Stock up if you can.
This explains the near ruin state of my house.
So, tomorrow I’m getting a Covid jab, if I can.
Greg’s probably still getting wings at RJs and a bottle of Surge from the Blockbuster right by it where the Dollar General and Wawa are now.
Maybe Il Postino?
Any movie get being a poet right?
My sincere thanks to @steveportigal.bsky.social for organizing this open letter to LinkedIn taking them to task for changing their hate speech around “misgendering or deadnaming of transgender individuals.” 🔗 Open letter to sign - docs.google.com/document/d/1...
Trained shrimp.
In Putin’s Russia, if they can’t find an actual charge they go with “hooliganism.” Like holding up a poster with nothing written on it gets you arrested for hooliganism.
Senior year, I went by “Greg” at a take-out restaurant for three months because it was easier than getting them to hear “Ray.” Also had a bad psychologist, which is why I haven’t had therapy in over two decades. Better not having one than a bad one.
Here is jamal from Gaza. We literally lost everything. Please support us if u can by reposting or anything, your help can rebuild our lives. chuffed.org/project/1389...
I’m naming it Greta Earwig.
“Do not offer thoughts and prayers as you systemically enable such tragedies. Do not claim prayers are sufficient when children die as they pray. Do not pretend you do not understand.” — Lydia, 16, Minneapolis
There’s not one James Brady among them.
If Taco Tuesday can be a thing, I’m making Poutine Thursday.
BREAKING: Big moment as CDC staff stage a mass walkout. They have lined the street outside its HQ to greet and salute the four top officials who have resigned in protest at RFK Jr’s attack on the agency’s science base. (🎥 AP)
@robmclennan.bsky.social , Who should Degrassi have instead of Drake?
Massive walkout underway at CDC. RFK jr. must resign so that we can be safe.
The Village People will play “In the Navy” for a change?
School districts across Florida started removing books from their shelves without formal review this summer.
Tried my hand at microfiction once upon a time.
Maybe it was a dumb idea in retrospect.
The priest he had his “vinegar,” the sexton had his “stew,” and both enjoyed them thoroughly the long, cold winter through.
I remember trying to submit a murder ballad stanza to a microfiction place, but it wasn’t published.
When Aurora, CO happened, the best I could muster was writing “I will not give in to fear and buy a gun.” twelve times. I still don’t own one.
Aeolian Harp Anthology vol. 4 2018
The NRA bought Marco Rubio for $3 million. My high school chemistry teacher is a widow from Parkland. I expect it to hit everyone some way soon, and Republicans to still not care.
Tom Clancy’s Waiting for Godot
Maybe we’ll raise the purchasing age and then lower it. Maybe we’ll do a mural and then paint over it. Maybe we’ll think and pray, then unthink and unpray. And maybe we’ll do all this somewhere else next week.
When I think I’m masking my autism but really not.
Maybe we could get Efrim Menuck for Degrassi.
Hey, kids, remember Lem and Joydrop?
Literally anyone I could come up with would probably be “dad rock” or “old school” by now.
Back in the day, in-state tuition was 1/3 the cost of out-of-state. I got through most of undergrad on scholarship, and put that college money my parents saved up toward my grad school. Took a bit longer, but I got through it debt-free.
Because he’s Canadian?
I’m not so hopeless I don’t send work out, but I haven’t written anything new in years. Just trying to keep the pilot light on seems a task lately.
90s b-movie authoritarianism. Where’s Snake Plissken when you need him.
I was good with my VHS tapes, Snoopy blanket, and SpaghettiOs. This “grownup” stuff is mostly a wash-out. Could do without most of it.
Edwin Muir
Half of White Americans. And Latinos can be just as Nativist. It’s grim, I know.
1800 block of South Western Avenue in Chicago
Figures.
Remember the ice-cream truck from Borat?
They done Pride and Prejudice yet?
Not necessarily. Skip the bark mitzvot though.
Just hours after a shooter opened fire through the windows of a Catholic church in Minneapolis, hundreds were crowding inside a nearby school's gym, clutching one another and wiping away tears during a vigil.
from the country that brought you 1984, here comes 2025
I miss my old life, before the spray tan man. I get sick of seeing and hearing him.
I had a cat once who was all muscles, because he hunted and ate his kills. Could be genetic though.
And I’m right back on my nocturnal sleep pattern.
Postal services around the world suspend deliveries to US: how will it affect you?
The books taken off the school shelves included The Diary of Anne Frank and What Girls Are Made of by Elana K Arnold. None of them were under formal review by the district, and they hadn’t been flagged by local parents as potentially inappropriate.
Took two melatonin gummies.
