Not left handed

God.

I'm tall. I got bone problems in my spine. I got brain problems triggered by flying. Planes literally force me into a stress position for the duration of the trip unless I pay a few hundred dollars extra for person-scale seats.

Yesterday I answered the phone at work and when I said my name the woman on the other line got so excited and said “Madeline?? You’re exactly who I wanted to talk to! This is Marie, you helped me about a month ago. How late are you working today?” It was her!! And about an hour later she and her husband showed up, and she was carrying a huge stack of old knitting patterns for me, and her husband brought in a few boxes full of yarn. They couldn’t stay long but I was so touched that she remembered me, and I struggled to not just flat out start crying when she handed me the patterns. When I looked through them later I realized it was her entire personal collection from over the years, including all her personal notes and drawings and even some photographs of her finished pieces. No one in my family knits, and to have someone pass on their legacy to me like that was incredibly moving.

and we will say "When I was YOUR age, fruits and vegetables came from a supermarket and they were bred to get shipped 1000 miles in a truck and sit on shelves for weeks, and they tasted so sour and watery it was like eating paper compared to these ones. It wasn't even legal in some places to grow your own food"

and they will roll their eyes like yeah yeah just because everything was miserable in the 20s doesn't mean I have to have a smile on my face standing in the hot sun while you listen to that one guy talk about his bees FOREVER

And many other people have been just spitting, foaming at the mouth fucking FURIOUS. How dare I have the audacity to imagine a future where things get better?

Don't I know how BAD things are? Am I not aware of the TERROR and DEVASTATION of climate change and fascism and biodiversity loss? How dare someone be so bold, so callous, as to imagine something other than misery and suicide. How dare someone suggest it will get better. How dare a person propose that there is a future where we will be okay, in the face of so much terror. Hasn't she seen the abyss opening its jaws before us?

Well? What do you think?

When Democrats had the supermajority in the Senate and could pass whatever they wanted, from enshrining Roe v Wade or getting rid of the Bush-era tax cuts for billionaires and corporations, he's the guy that stopped them.

He's the guy that killed the public option. He's the reason we got a Republican healthcare plan passed under a Democratic President.

This man was one of the driving forces behind the Iraq War, he's the one that spread the lies around WMDs in Iraq which led to millions of deaths. He stuck to that lie as late as 2011. When even Bush people had turned tail years before that.

In addition to that, he was a staunch Zionist to the bitter end, and praised Biden for not "caving" to pressure from the left about the IDF's continuing war crimes in Palestine.

This is the man that put forward legislation that created the Department of Homeland Security.
