I just really really need a good drive-thru café that’s open past midnight. Please, for the sake of all night owls!
Actively hate the discourse against 24/7 places like I get where you're coming from but in my ideal world a lot of shit would be 24/7 just with more shifts and better pay because plenty of people prefer to work nights or have to be out at weird hours to get basic necessities for one reason or another and acting like necessary services keeping to almost a 9-5 operating hours and having multiple days closed ignores people sometimes do need things immediately and it's not all some lazy selfish desire and isn't inherently harmful to the employees

Peter: thank you, but I can’t
Bartender: why not

Honestly, this feels like a nightmare scenario. Literally, I've had nightmares about this. It's hard to believe that this many people voted for hate and fear and bigotry and violence. My fear is only amplified by some body cam footage I watched a few days ago of what happened on January 6th, 2021. It was like one of those dystopian montages you watch either at the beginning of a movie or at the moment when the protagonist learns why the world is in ruins, except it's real.
In the midst of all the turmoil, terror, and despair that is likely occurring in all of our lives right now, it may not feel like there is any hope. It may feel as though democracy is dead and tyranny and oppression reign supreme, but all is not lost.
As president, he possesses no legislative power except to veto or propose bills to congress, and so I do not see him changing the fact that he has only one term left to serve. He is also old, as old as Biden was when he stepped into office, so he may not even last the whole term!
That being said, I have no idea how much damage might be done by the time he's out. During his first presidency, at least he was surrounded by the somewhat sane to keep him in check, but he's fired all of them and is now surrounded by enablers who might be just as crazy as he is.
It is important for all who truly love democracy to accept this loss with grace, to be better than the mob that stormed our nation's capitol after the 2020 election. This does not mean that we will simply lie down and take whatever comes our way in the upcoming years.
Now, more than ever, it is imperative that we make our voices heard, that we stand up for the kind of society we want to live in, that we stand against violence, injustice, and oppression.
We shall not act with violence. We will not give such satisfaction to oppressors and bigots. We must work to ensure that we are not spreading the fear, hate, and animosity that has caused us so much grief and suffering. When future generations look back at our actions, they must be able to say that we have done no wrong. Martin Luther King Jr. taught us the effectiveness of the peaceful protest during the Civil Rights movement. I am afraid we shall have many reasons to practice the art in the coming years, but we will not give up on our society.
We will fight Bigotry with Acceptance.
We will fight Despair with Hope.
We will fight Grief with Joy.
We will fight Absurdity with Laughter.
We will fight Violence with Peace.
We will fight Silence by making our Voices heard like the thunder rolling down the hills.
We will fight Cruelty with Mercy.
We will fight Greed with Generosity.
We will fight Lies with Truth.
We will fight Hate with Love.
We will fight Shame with Pride.
To everyone who thinks that their voice doesn't matter, believe me, it does! Alone, we are weak, conquerable, easily discarded. Together we can move a nation. I implore you, learn how our nation works. Research important topics, verify information, seek Truth, and when you find it? Share it. Petition, vote, and, perhaps most importantly, listen to the voices of the oppressed. If you don't know how to help or where to find reliable information, find someone who does. If you do, be there for someone who doesn't.
I think I might have the spreadsheet autism. I’m supposed to be writing a paper, but I ended up procrastinating by creating a spreadsheet detailing by how much each state’s minimum wage fails to support basic costs of living.

I love when my dreams continue. Like, the dream ended before the story was over and I’m really bummed out. But then, whether it’s that night, the next night, or a hundred nights later, I return to the dream and the story continues. It’s been years since I’ve visited some, but i know I’ll recognize them if I return, and I’ll be glad to see my friends again. Sometimes dreams are in the same storyline, just at different times and places.
The weirdest part is that when I have these dreams, I almost always feel like some outside entity is trying to communicate with me. It’s not that I feel like the dreams aren’t mine. It’s more like my mind has touched something else and we created the dreamscape together.
I like when my dreams reuse locations from past dreams. like oh cool we doin a bottle episode
