So this happened...

letting family members sit in for dead senators is just monarchy logic im appalled that this has even happened before

An unelected individual getting grandfathered into a real political position due to their blood or legal relationship with a deceased elected official is not pretty good actually

can the US empire please just fall already so we can stop having to beg americans to go beg their officials to vote against the "make everything worse for everyone in the entire world" bill that they're trying to push for like the 12th time by now. like this is just humiliating for everyone involved at this point

two extremely traumatized characters finally, finally kissing after chapters upon chapters of slow burn and both being more than a little weepy about it. kisses that get more and more desperate, finally, finally, i've been so alone, so alone for so long, finally, i have you, i have you here, tears streaming down their cheeks as hands move to cup them. wiping the tears from each other's eyes with the softest, gentlest touch and leaving kisses where they had once been. yeah. yeah, thats the good stuff

practicing self care less out of self love and more for the sheer logical reasoning of it’d be kinda stupid of me to expect myself to be able to function without proper maintenance

“oh i don’t deserve rest and relaxation, i haven’t done enough, i haven’t earned it” and my car’s breaks don’t deserve break fluid because they aren’t breaking well enough to earn it. that’s what you sound like!!!!!

If you do not schedule time for maintenance, your equipment will schedule it for you
