Hate to bring this up

I do twitter. Its actually how i get a lot of my news. I know that sounds bad but the accounts i follow are journalists, scientists, and academics.

I get what you mean. I use Twitter to keep-up with businesses, musicians, politicians, authors. I mainly made one to contact a favorite author of mine in-regard to privately printing some of her artwork. I couldn't believe that I got a message back! It was wild. This was back in 2015. Any posts I make are due to social-media convenience or the general malaise.

Hate to bring this up

Reddit, tumblr, Instagram, YouTube. Yeah, I like reddit, but I don't follow too many large sub's. I like how every community is a little different. I love seeing the exercise of, "If you want something done right, do it yourself," in the form of making different subreddits.

I like being able to have different accounts on the platform, within my own. I'll raise my hand for being one to use an ad-blocker, and the frustration of them doesn't wreck my nerves.

bought this greatest thing *pm if yawanna know*

Before I saw your reply, I was going to recommend putting a sticker over the logo, but a sweater lends poorly to repair by sticky-paper. What about having it embroidered-over?

I'm living on the mountainside with my 2 Mexican rescue pups in my old RV. Got a new low wattage 24v a/c unit for the summer & a new wood stove for next winter, comfort being the name of the game. Might cruise down to Mexico next winter for some dental work & (more) r&r. Living the life of Riley n loving it!

Holy ****shit, that's wonderful! Thank you for the reminder of Mexican dental care, sincerely. It's neat having your nest on the road. There's nothing like making your own space, nesting and enjoying living life. Bon voyage! Have you been before (maybe when recusing said pups)?

Ahh, gotcha. I hope it was a cozy time. And hope moreso that you're not currently still experiencing a cold-snap, depending on where you live.

Also trying to survive here.
What's your previous job? I'm sorry to hear that you lost it :(

Ah, I see, hang-in there, man. May I ask if you see any signs of change on the horizon?

I worked in a bookstore. It was my last sort-of "home" left. Now I carry it within, and it's very hard.

My only plans as of now, is to survive.

Hey, good to see you, Padre. I'm sorry it's such a bleak time. I hope things go as well as is possible. Maybe something will come-up soon that you can look forward to, even if it's a eclipse, an outdoor reprieve from the cold, or hearing a song on the radio that you haven't heard in a while.

For those of you on mental health medication...

Oh, that's rough. I've been on medication for a little over 6yrs, and have still had the same anti-depressant. When I'm dragged downward from time-to-time, I benefit by changing-up some part of my daily life or routine.

Whether it's moving furniture, sleeping on a different end of the bed, starting some project I know I'll likely not finish, research an entirely new subject to the point of feeling an existential-shift within.

I'm glad you can get some assistance with this.

URGENT AND WILL BE DELETED IN 24 HOURS

And I'm sorry but something should have seemed fishy to you when they said that there was a secret plot to invent a disease and kill people and then sell the vaccine for it....so secret that they APPLIED FOR PUBLIC PATENTS.

Dude, my brain is about to lobotomize itself. Do you know how they decided to vaccinate against polio- they gace out vaccines to people for free (via sugar-cube for some). It's difficult to stimulate the state if no one can walk.

As for cost, that's always been the game with vaccines. When the US, UK, and some other folks find a better vaccine (one with fewer side-effects but better than the actual disease), then they sell it to someone else who either has nothing or has something crappier. Then those they sold it to, do the same when a newer vaccine is discovered. Fun.

The most infuriating this about these nonsensical conspiracy-theories is that they don't even make sense. Where's the effort? Just a waste of viable energy.
