BTS ARMY, OT7, not very serious and I talk too much. I paint and write too. :) 1983er. I painted that wave in my icon.

What if humans were already on Mars. We destroyed that planet, and escaped to earth, barely surviving the trip, and starting anew. And once humans destroy earth, they escape to mars, barely surviving, starting completely over... And we just keep going back and forth like that?

I'm going to go vote in person on election day, rather than doing it early. If people show up with guns or in fatigues of some kind, I'll be there to vote in defiance of their attempts at oppression. And give them the ol' stink-eye

It's interesting. I have a great amount of empathy and caring for the people in my life. My empathy, however, is intellectual, not emotional. I understand them, feel for them, in my mind only (most of the time). I don't FEEL the empathy in my gut, heart racing, sorrow in my stomach. +

Y'all, I went to my theater for the bts concert tonight, and it's the most fun I've had since chicago! We had a bunch of people this time, feeling free to army bomb and sing and woot and laugh. Daughter now wants to go to a live bts concert, and I can't wait to introduce her to army culture

LOL my theater glitched on Mic Drop, and we were all like NOOOOOOO NoT MIC DROP! But one girl kept it up while the feed was frozen, and we sang with her. When the glitch corrected, she was almost perfectly on beat. A champion.

The stream died and instead of being jerks ARMY sent one to tell the theatre and then everybody sang along to Swim on somebody's phone recipe. Adorable to the max 💜💜💜🥰

Re toxic positivity I think it's used too liberally. It's meant to describe someone who sees, hears, speaks no evil, and who can acknowledge negative feelings or address negative events. It's not for people who try to focus on the positive, while acknowledging the crappy things in life Also+

I recently learned from a friend I consider above avg in political awareness that she didn't know not voting for an unopposed candidate or a candidate she didn't agree with but voting the rest of the ballot was even an option. It made me wonder how many folks don't know this. Bring back civics!

I do strongly endorse VOTING, however. It's important though it's not the only thing you can do to effect change. Remember, if there's a race where you've decided not to vote for either candidate, that doesn't mean stay home. Leave that line blank, learn about the other races and vote in those.

Puppy is doing well. Adorable, playful, cute The other day, i was letting my older dog outside, waiting in the doorway, and heard a long, mournful howl. I'd never heard it before. Daughter said he does it whenever he feels left out 😂

Wisconsin is one of two states I've lived in whose insularity leads to the kind of evolutionary cultural craziness you find in animals in the Galapagos or language in isolated settlements. This is what hath been wrought in the name of sausage

In honor of the fired lady tell me about your shortest job tenure. I worked at a candy store for less than 2 weeks when I was like 16

Many years ago, I worked for a law firm as a lowly legal secretary. Boss wanted me to come in early to make coffee for everyone, but wouldn't let me leave early or pay OT. So i came right on time, left on time. For a while, the partner's paralegal (and secret lover) was making the coffee instead,
