So... me. Work in aerospace, more space, not as much aero. Can fix my own car, choose not to. Can fix the random appliance of your choice. Hardcore introvert in person, which is why I love online. Lifelong science fiction fan. Read constantly. Scalzi is my favorite author, because he mixes exactly the right amount of snark into his writing. Together with a guy 30+ years, married since it was legal. Own a home in CA and don't plan to leave unless I immigrate to another country.

We can use our bodies to calm ourselves.

Breathe in deeply for 4 seconds.
Hold for 4 seconds.
Breathe out 4 for seconds.
Hold for 4 seconds.
Repeat as needed.
That's called box breathing. π¦
It's been helping me with my #anxiety and getting me more into my body rather than in my head doing the ol overthinkeroo

I wanted to share it with you in case it might help you too.π
Thanks for taking a moment to rest with me π

I keep telling myself (as the freeways are closed due to flooding and mudslides) that this is good. We need the moisture. It's gotten us out of severe drought, and some areas are completely out of drought.
Now as long as we don't get another scorching hot, windy summer that turns all the growth into tinder...
Hey, you like abandoned places, and I like selling books about them! If you don't have a signed copy of my first book, "Abandoned America: The Age of Consequences", I've got the hook-up: https://www.dismantlingthedream.com/product-page/signed-copy-of-abandoned-america-the-age-of-consequences
Red Squirrels Boycott BBC over Attenborough Censorship
Reports are appearing in the Hundred Acre Wood media that red squirrels are refusing to appear in any more BBC wild life documentaries in response to an episode of David Attenborough's latest series The Wild Isles being dropped.
Leader Squirrel Nutkin said "F**k the Tory b*****ds."

Did that come out before or after the movie where he played Spiderman?
Hey remember in the 90s when Michael Keaton played Iron Man?

I planned ahead, and didn't change it last November, in preparation for this weekend. My weekend will be 100% stress free, without all that clock-adjusting.
Who needs therapy when you can type out every weird thought in your head and post it on Mastodon?

Well, it's good that you're making contingency plans, but here's hoping Summer and both of you are out taking walks and playing in fields for years to come.
Spend less time worrying about drag queens and more time worrying about youth pastors, boy scout leaders, and republican house speakers.

After she finished my screening, the blood bank technician asked, "Can I tell you something?" I nodded. She said, "I wanted to thank you personally for donating today. I have a disease where I need an infusion of red blood cells every three weeks. I've been getting infusions since I was three. You and I are the same type. I may get your blood one day and that will keep me alive." What do you say to that? Yow. Consider donating if you can, folks. #DonateBlood #SaveLives
depressing Ukraine thoughts
I haven't really accepted how long this war is likely to go on without significantly more Western help. I cannot imagine the burden on Zelenskyy's psyche, and all other Ukrainians. Even if it ended today, there are years of demining, rebuilding, etc., and it's not as if their economy was good before. They WILL win. I have ZERO doubt about that. But the thought of this suffering going on for years is just emotionally crushing. I'm committed to doing whatever I can for as long as it takes.
Really wish I knew of a queer space around South Minneapolis (which doesn't have to be in Minneapolis or even radical) to hangout at. Doesn't anybody know? I'm not talking about a bar, please. Feeling incredibly isolated. One person I talked to yesterday traveled like 30 miles to the rally in South Minneapolis. Cant imagine being so far away like that. Another person who spoke at the rally said the small town they live in isn't really a nice place for trans folx. I need to find community because I am ostracized by locals. All these people on "Minneapolis twitter" most definitely think I'm a cis person among other things and this drives me fucking crazy btw. I'm not going to be clarifying to others about my identity like that when it's my privacy.
I don't really expect a response but boosts are okay.
