Boys with skirts.

Boost if you agree.

(yep, this is a re-edition, the first one died with my previous instance)

I feel like I’ve been social-media quiet lately. It’s mostly for good reasons (a lot of very nice things happening in my personal life), but also a few stressful reasons that I don’t entirely feel comfortable broadcasting.

Nevertheless, I just wanted to mention that I feel pretty good today. I’ve got 4-5 more hours of work and then I get a well deserved break from being in the store! =n.n=

Mastodon Feature I’d love to see 

...oh it looks like the basic web client does this already and I am dumb and should proooobably just dump Amaroq.

Mastodon Feature I’d love to see 

A way to enable anything with a CW to appear as a single line item. Not any larger or smaller based on the content underneath. Cause right now large posts show up as larger windows and that by their nature makes them harder to ignore.

Really Great Resource for Disability / Housing / More 

A very nice bird showed me this really handy reference guide:

I'm a share this here in the hope that it helps some folks.

small ask re:mindfulness 

Please don’t just barrel into another person and dump your pain on them. Your pain is valid and real, but if you do that you’re only handing that off to someone who’s not prepared for it. That’s only going to continue the cycle.

small ask re:mindfulness 

Hey, I know that lots of folks are hurting right now. There’s a ton of pain going around in the orthocosm and elsewhere. When you go to someone else to talk about that pain, try to ask the following questions:

1) Have they eaten/showered/got a good night’s sleep?
2) Are they in a place to listen to you?
3) Do they have the time / energy to listen right now?

Pokémon Go sillyness 

My favorite part about having friends in Pogo and being next to a certain burger chain all day long is the fact that now I can send all the Dick’s to my friends every day.

Because I am a mature and respond adult.

Self care Reminder 

I know it’s been rough on a lot of people lately. Please, in all these stressful times don’t forget to take care of yourself. Consider making a self-care checklist. Here’s a few things that might go on one (taken from my own list) :
- Take your meds
- Keep to your sleep schedule if you can
- Get a walk in or exercise yourself a little.
- Do those chores you’ve been putting off.
- Don’t forget to look beyond today, and remind yourself about a good thing on the horizon.

Advice (Daily Tarot musings) 

Yesterday's card was Temperance.
I took it as a welcome reminder that I have been fairly excessive when it comes to my consumption levels of junk food and that mayyyybe I should slow down. I made a commitment to myself to try to drink less soda and have been successful thus far.

Today's card is the Ten of Cups. Fitting cause I have a lot of projects finishing up today or later this week, and it feels good to get those out of the way.

Rain / Slow Morning 

It's a kinda dreary wet cloudy day this morning, which suits my mood of wanting to curl up and slowly work my task list away just fine.

This weekend was intense, and it had it's high and low points. But it's good to be able to take a moment and listen to the rain now and then.

Words of a Friend (politics / stress management) 

"You may not have power and privilege on a large scale, but there's likely a place where you've got SOMETHING, even if it's just the ear of a colleague. Use it. Wrap it around your fists and your ideals; and let it help you help others batter down walls."

Words of a Friend (politics / stress management) 

"The big fights matter; but so do the small ones. Airlines challenged and refused to participate in Trump's family separation policy because employees came to them concerned about distraught children on flights. Think about that."

Quoting this from Jay Edidin (of Jay & Miles X-Plain the X-Men):

"You can't fix everything. That's okay. What you can do is look for the wrongs you can challenge and the rights you can reinforce within your reach; and do so when you encounter them."

Leggings / Skirts / Summer Question 

For those of you who wear them, anybody got recommendations for leggings for summer wear?

I wanna break out the skirt more but I get anxious about my legs. >.>

It's like the queerest plaid. :D
