The Iranian people deserve to live peaceful lives. We all do. Thinking of all the people out there scared who just want to exist and eat and laugh and spend time with their families and friends. Nobody should have to live with constant trauma. We ALL deserve better.
We've been unable to readily reach our relatives in Iran for more than a month. Praying for their safety and the safety of all innocent Iranians caught in the middle of this endless power struggle.
Later I microwaved a can of green beans with butter and salt and pepper. Later still I cut up an apple with a scoop of a new jar of peanut butter. Just now, Ramen noodles. Still fewer dishes than making a full dinner. #winning
My kid works in a restaurant & gets a shift meal most days, and his dad has been getting Burger King with his Spark discount so today I ate the way I did when I was single: leftover chicken with lettuce and honey mustard dipping sauce, then I finished off a jar of peanut butter with a toddler spoon
"The Islamists oppose women getting an education," I mutter, as I aim my missile at the girls school
Trump could start a ground war - and institute the draft - and Congress would do nothing.
Dems would continue to say "wait till the midterms".
The hubris of few slaughters the innocence of many. I'm so extremely tired of powerful people destroying the world.
The richest man owns X.
The second and third richest men control Google.
The fourth richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp.
The fifth richest man owns The Washington Post.
And now the sixth richest could soon take over both Paramount and Warner Bros.
See the problem here?
Fuck everyone who talks about 'reform'. Ice can not be reformed it must be destroyed.
DS9 is the one I rewatch regularly, with some Lower Decks thrown in. I just don't ever feel the need to rewatch every series all the time but DS9 never gets old.
We lost a close friend at the beginning of the month and it just sucks so much out of you. I hope you find time and space to mourn.
Bigotry has no place in a civilized society.
How can anyone bear listening to his awful voice? So gross.
This is what shall unite us.
And Trump wasn't even there. Again.
It's all about the latinum. Makeup department didn't have enough bars for everyone to get a Quark head.
AI is soulless, just uncanny valley vibes everywhere. Technology will never to be accurate in creating art, because art is too human for an algorithm to understand.
Folks think poor people shouldn't be allowed to buy soda yet they're fine with politicians robbing the coffers in plain sight. Hating poor people is like a kink for some people.
I am officially the person that will predict the weather with my joint pain. I didn't ask for this power, it was thrust upon me, like religious pamphlets from Jehovah's Witnesses. So say the knees.
I learned something new the hard way today. Apparently using a Q-Tip in your ear even once a month can bruise your ear canal AND create a blood blister. Scratching that inside itch was not worth it. Wondered why my ear was bothering me. Sigh.
I really, really, really, really, really hate snow.
We get it.
It's winter.
Lease us alone.
Ice cannot be reformed they must be destroyed.
A very sweet friend of mine is weeks away from a double mastectomy and today her car broke down. She's a sweetheart who did mock interviews with my kid when he was looking for a job. Any help is good:

Have you tried the Vicks vapor nasal inhaler (or generic store brand)yet because I'm personally obsessed with it and my sinuses are currently housing a family of feral squirrels. It's like inhaling a eucalyptus tree, sans koalas.
For the record, I'm team #FuckIce regardless of who is president. Ice is evil even when Democrats are in charge. We need reformed immigration laws to make the process smoother, not violent thugs attacking human beings. Immigrants have always made this country better. We belong to each other.
Ew. Tough day to be straight. Where's the eye bleach?
ICE is a terrorist organization.
Thanks to the Weatherization program we have a new furnace as of today, after over 3 weeks of trying to keep our broken furnace running sporadically. Extremely grateful programs like this exist.
That's assuming they'd actually do something. They always have a couple Senators willing to be the bad guys to prevent any real, significant change. Democrats are very comfortable with the status quo. It makes them millionaires after all.
