It was much easier, pre-technology, to rent a cabin on the shore of a cursed lake.
Used to be families could disappear, but you and your terrified community knew you could continue to appease the lake because westward expansion would continue to deliver new renters.
These days, you spend all your time politely responding to AirBnB reviews like "Thanks for the feedback about the missing children. We did mention that risk in our listing, but can offer a 10% rebooking discount for next time!"
If you or someone you love lives in the US and needs help accessing government services, I just found the BEST WEBSITE
https://howtogeton.wordpress.com/
This site talks about how to get disability, food assistance, medical care, affordable housing, all sorts of programs you may or may not have heard of, and how to apply, and how to appeal, and how to everything! It's great!
The orchid mantis is a big weird lanky bug, which is relatable, but she also rocks high-femme fashion while being a terrifying predator with swords for arms, which is aspirational.
Self care doesn't have to be fancy, expensive, or time consuming. Step away for a few minutes and breathe.
If someone with a disability or a chronic illness or a mental illness tells you something is too difficult for them to do, believe them. Maybe it's something they could do on another occasion. Maybe it's something you find, or even "everyone" finds, easy. Maybe it's something you found trivial to research or learn how to do. Believe them anyway. Maybe it's only three steps, maybe it's a piece of software, or a phone call. Believe them anyway.
Believe people when they tell you their experiences.
Please help me raise money to help pay for life saving gender affirming surgeries that will massively alleviate my dysphoria, increase my safety in a transphobic society, and improve my quality of life. #transfundraiser
Gods, I love #Magpies, they are so nosy. They've been poking the aircon outlet all afternoon.
One of the them climbed over it, blundered into the lounge, doing itself a considerable frighten, & intriguing Smol Canine Niece.
Finally managed to put the dog in the hall, move the furniture & capture the miscreant & sent it back to its mates.
They spent the entire time calling to it while I was trying catch it & probably telling it what a idjit it was.

CWs are super great to encourage political action because:
- you can mention where it's happening, so you don't have to read it if you can't do anything about it, (or forward it on in case others might be able to act on it)
- you can say 'hey, here's something that you can do about it' and people can think 'oh wow, that's great, I'll take a look at this when I'm up for it'
(ie. giving context and action statements prevents apathy and makes political action messages focused instead of chaotic)

Am looking after tiny smol Miniature Dachshund for a friend. It was a last minute emergency thing, so we don't know much about him.
He's been suffering horribly with separation anxiety, which has lead to none of us getting much sleep for the last week. Between that & constant stress paw-licking am feeling so sad for him & feel like I have let him down.
