Subtitle: But why they are necessary Yes, I want that all in one tittle, but I’m not a monster. If I want three titles in one, that’s my business! I’ve talked about labels often before, but I feel it’s important to bring it up again. Why? Because I really wish there was a way to… Continue Reading
In yesterday’s post, I was talking about bras. Why? Because they are symbolic of societal norms that I consider pointless. I mentioned that so many women on the blog I was reading (and commenting) were so vehementy pro-bra, it surprised me. Not that they wore them or felt compelled to wear them, but that they… Continue Reading
Yeah, I’m back for part three of my musing on mindfulness. Here’s part two in which I talked about, well, I’m not really sure what. I think I had more side notes tahn I did actual post. That’s just the way I roll, though. I make no apologies for it. I will footnote you all.… Continue Reading
I want to talk more about mindfulness, meditation, and Taiji. I started a post aabout it yesterday, but as is my wont, I meandered all over the place. And probably fell asleep while writing it. My sleep is just terrible lately, for reasons that aren’t part of this post. So, yeah. Mindfulness? Miss me with… Continue Reading
Today’s word is mindfulness. Words I don’t like, I mean. That’s what I’m focused on these past few days. I can hear you wondering aloud what issue I could possible have with mindfulness. Being aware of one’s inner sensations, feelings, etc., as well as one’s outer environment can’t be a bad thing, right? Of course… Continue Reading
I want to talk a little (lot) bit more about forgiveness. You know that thing when you say a word enough times in a row and it starts to sound foreign? Like table. Say it repeatedly for a minute, then see if it still has meaning to you. I mention that because I feel that… Continue Reading
We’re in a holding pattern right now. The border ‘czar’ (god, I hate the use of that term in government. We’re not supposed to have kings of any sort, and that smacks of kingdom to me. It also amuses me in a sardonic way that his name in Homan. Like he misspelled human. RKG (a… Continue Reading
The tide is changing, at least a little. I am darkly amused how quickly the members of this administration are throwing each other under the bus. Noem is now saying the talking points she vomited out after Pretti was killed (that the victim (paraphrased) was locked and loaded, and that he was looking to commit… Continue Reading
I woke up to the news that there’s been another local shooting by ICE. Oh wait. It might not be ICE. It might be Border Patrol. At any rate, it’s federal assholes. This time, it was K messaging me. which meant I had to be angry, upset, depressed, enraged, heartbroken, and a whole mess of… Continue Reading
We’ve had a cold streak here in Minnesota. It reached -19F, “feels like” -35F last night. It’s -16F, “feels like” -16F right now. This is too cold, even for me. It’s brutal. People are urged to stay inside. Frostbite can happen in about five minutes. That’s not much time at all. Simultaneously, we had an… Continue Reading
