If people are actually protesting, of course I don't consider it a joke. I just thought the one in February 5th was a joke, everyone was guilt tripping me for asking questions but refused to answer them.

Three different start times, two different addresses, and everyone pretending there's a signal chat just feels like a trick.

50501 didn't turn out to be a prank? My state's "organizer" was a deleted reddit post with no other contact info, the posters named three different start times, and only two people claimed to have links to the signal chat and stopped replying when I asked for it, even though they offered.

I visited the subreddit three days before it was supposed to take place, and they were still figuring out basics. One of the top posts was discussing the dress code (consensus seemed to be wearing blue + American flag scarfs), and the one person pointing out how impractical and dangerous that was for a protest was getting downvoted.

Thats the reason I'm not protesting, btw. One protest in my area and it seemed like either a joke, a honeypot, or like a teenager came up with it.

Two very different answers here 😛

There are a lot of people who would rush me to the hospital but also voted to take away my rights and worse. I don't know if I believe in good people these days.

God, infowars. I swear my brother bought coffee or something from them and it dragged my mother down the far right rabbit hole with him. I wish I could go back in time and do something more than cringe when he showed me the packaging that said "wakey wakey America".

I try to cook in batches on my day off, but I never make as much as I need. Given up on freezing because no matter how many how-to guides I read, everything has fuzz on it the next day. :(

I keep trying to cut back on eating out but I work so much and when I'm home I fall asleep without meaning to. I don't understand how working people manage to cook for themselves consistently. I just keep buying gas station food and putting off laundry for another week.

I have the aesthetics of someone with their shit together!

I wouldn't touch it. I don't trust anyone to use it tactfully. All the people I've seen say "I'm disabled so I can use it" art like, low support needs, average IQ autistic people. Someone told me I can use it since I'm dyslexic.

My aunt was diagnosed with that term in the 50s and she was never able to read or write, couldn't be independent for long stretches of her life. That's different from me getting laughed at when I read a customer's order.

Big hot cup of coffee. My sketchbook and pencils. A shady spot near the fishing hole. ~~Random men do not interrupt me simply because I'm the only non-man at the fishing hole.~~

In a better universe there's also some fishing but there's a health advisory on our river so I ain't eating that

Yeah, I was eating dinner yesterday and got what I thought was a mouthful of bones from my fish. It was the broccoli

Nope. When I make plans with people, it usually ends with one of us giving a 👍. I thought it meant "we're all on the same page".
