"This is my cat. There are many like it, but this one is mine. My kitty is my best friend. It is my life."

This could be the costume for a New Super Hero. What would you name him? in c/[email protected]

We keep shooting it and yelling "stop resisting" but the fire won't stop!

I was bored and looking for something to do on the weekend, and found cheap tickets to see Sheryl Crow and Pink (headlining) live. Honestly one of the best shows I've even seen. The "don't give a fuck" vibe mixed with the professionalism of a 30 year career, just all the energy I wanted.

They both have newer albums, but I've had their high-school bangers on a lot lately.

Funny enough, that's literally the plot of the play King Charles III that ran on the West End about a decade ago.

Spoiler alert: fictional KCIII doesn't get very far.

I'm ok with this on one condition...

We just finished our traditional holiday watching of all six extended LOTR and Hobbit movies, so we're finally getting around to Rings of Power.

More Americans are taking the train than ever in c/[email protected]

Ha, literally saw this while waiting for my Amtrak.

For medium-short trips, beats air travel hands down, cheaper, loads of space, reliable and limited security theater.

Fellow Americans, how do you deal with the day to day knowing this capitalist hellhole system is absolutely rigged against us? in c/[email protected]

So I went through a very dark place a few years back. Anxiety, depression and PTSD led me to the conclusion that "life is hard and always will be and that in the whole of human history we are all insignificant".

But with the help of a great therapist (and some meds) I was able to append "so I might as well have fun".

So I try to find joy wherever I can. So yes to doing things, fight my cynical side, make friends, dress weird, dance, party, be my (weird fun happy) self, allocate zero fucks to the haters and all to love to the people that matter.

I still fight the system where I can, but mostly by trying to make other's lives happier. Let the billionaires be rich miserable assholes, we're too busy dancing slutty to care.

For younger or newer renters, I highly recommend the book Safe and Sound: A Renter-Friendly Guide to Home Repair by Mercury Stardust

It covers so many things I wish I knew when I first moved out on my own, and probably would have saved me some serious money over the years.
