Penguin On A Mission

@penguinonamission.bsky.social

Mild mannered penguin by day, radical pissed off liberal atheist w/weapons by night. Here primarily for left leaning politics, but open to occasional random fluff cause life needs balance. I was a pissed off penguin before it was cool.

I've lived alone for 10 years now, and its never really bothered me. In fact I kinda like having the house to myself. But this week I've been sick with something and I'm having a hard time taking care of myself. Maybe I should of gotten that younger boyfriend after my husband died. 🤣😎

Before Europeans arrived, these were some of the names for The Great Lakes: Superior: gichi-gami (great sea) Erie: erielhonan (long tail) Michigan: michigami (long body of water) Ontario: Ontarí'io\kanadario (great lake\beautiful water) Huron: karegnondi (fresh water sea)

Today its been exactly 10 years since I said my final goodbye to my husband. The memory of that day is burned into my existence, and feels as real now as it did then. But... we can't let it consume us. See it, acknowledge it, embrace it... but keep moving forward.

I'd love to credit whoever wrote this. No idea. But I'm 100% with its message. When I think of how the '80s ethos, "Greed is Good" has metastasized, it surprises and depresses me. Imagine having so many millions, hundred of millions, even billions & caring about nothing except your own vanity.
