I need to really get off my ass today

Honestly…. I’ve been slacking.

All I’ve wanted to do is lay in bed and read so that’s all I have been doing 😅

Olympia is Washington's first LGBTQ+ sanctuary city

Also🥹

For those of you desperately in need of distraction from today's headlines, here's a photo of a bunny & a chick who are friends.

I’m a walking lesbian stereotype…. I don’t know why I get shocked every time people just know that I’m gay-

Don’t just say DEI as if it’s a bad word. Spell it out.

Say diversity, which is the lifeblood of American society & culture & innovation.

Say equity, which a just society should pursue.

Say inclusion, because decent people believe in increasing belonging, not isolating people who are different.

I’m 22 years old, I’ll be 23 by early August… I think it’s way past time to start working on my time management skills…

Also giving myself a minimum of 150 pages that I must read because the book I’m currently reading is starting out so incredibly slowly that I’m not even 100 pages in and I started it on the 27th of January so it’s time to make a little dent into it

What’s on the agenda today:

I started a load of laundry and cleaned up my desk.

Now I’m about to switch my laundry to the dryer and hop in the shower.

I need to write a minimum of 2000 words for my book

What if history just didn't repeat itself, for once?

Now more than ever.

I was 17 here 🤷🏻‍♀️

Reading

Sandy Hook

And the smell! Heaven!

Last years:

This little cow is so cute (early valentines gift), I think it’s one of my favorites ❤️

I have the next list of books I want to get (mostly sapphic and then a few random ones to complete series I already own) now I just need to hope money falls out of the sky cause the $10 in my bank account isn’t going to do anything 😭😂

The sudden realization that by October I would’ve been out of the closet for a full decade is insane.

Elon Musk is a terrible president.

Me: “I’m going to be productive”

Also me: *doing nothing but playing the sims 4 for 2 days*

Michelle Obama: We should eat healthier.

MAGA: HOW DARE YOU &%$#!!!! 😡

RFK Jr: We should eat healthier.

MAGA: Yes, we should.

Maga logic.

MAGA is a mental illness.

I have an uncle that claims Trump is the best president since Carter. I haven’t spoken a word to him since November.

When asked if he was going to visit the crash site he said, ‘what site? The water? You want me to go swimming?’ This is one of the last pics of the young skaters who died. He’s a sociopath. Anyone who voted for this monster should be ashamed at best.

Writers, you might be struggling rn.

Math might help.

No, seriously.

If you write 300 (around a page) words a day, you will have an 80k book in 267 days. Less than a year.

If it's 200 words, it will take a little more than a year.

Doing it slowly is still doing it. 💪
