Our Flying Spaghetti Monster in Heaven,
Help us resist the urge to engage with online trolls,
Who seek to stir up anger and division among us.
May we remember that our words have power,
And that responding to hate with hate only adds to the darkness.
Instead, may we be a beacon of light,
Shining love, kindness, and understanding in all our online interactions.
Give us the strength to turn away from negativity,
And to choose compassion and empathy instead.
Lead us not into temptation to argue and fight,
But deliver us from the trolls who seek to bring us down.
For thine is the power to heal and unite,
Now and forevermore.
Bless us and protect us with thy noodly appendage,
R'amen.

πͺπΊπΊπ¦ We are with you.
We have been with you in this existential fight from the beginning.
Ukraine has become the centre of our continent.
The place where our values are upheld, where our freedom is defended, where the future of Europe is written.

Just when you thought you'd seen the sickest shit #Republicans had to offer, here comes #Alaska State Rep. David Eastman. He thinks it's good for society when children die of abuse, because dead children can't grow up to use government benefits.

Do not seize the day. This will startle the day and may cause it to becomes aggressive and give you a nasty bite.
Instead approach the day calmly without making eye contact, pet it gently, and slowly enfold it in a careful embrace
If the day shows any signs of resistance to being engaged with, it is likely to turn on you. Back off and return to bed.
Because Iβm clearly incapable of not oversharing on the internet, I figured Iβd post a photo of the rest of my apartment to prove that I legitimately live in a studio apartment and not a fancy mansion so please donβt come rob me because I donβt have anything worth stealing and besides I set up a bunch of booby traps Home Alone style.
They got used to it, they began to let the children walk for a while with detailed instructions on how to act when the siren sounds, what mines are, where to run if rockets fly.
We are used to sirens and rockets. This is bad, because we stop hiding in shelters...
Children are playing in the street... rockets are flying. ..the resettled woman who came to our village fell on the road screaming in panic..she is scared, her house was bombed. ..the children scared, ran home in tears. 1/3π
Tomorrow will be February 24. My memories... It was scary to sleep. I set the alarm every hour to read that Kyiv is standing. It was scary to lose freedom, the feeling that if it is taken away you will not be able to breathe anymore.
The first days of spring... Children did not run around the street, parents were afraid to let their children out of the house. 1/2π

Janewayβs logic was that the cheap knock-off of Harry Kim saved the cheap knock-off version of Naomi Wildmanβ¦ so, no promotion.
Why give Meta $12-$15 a month when you could pay only $1 instead to support my occasional jokes about how hilariously incompetent Meta is? Also, I post pictures of my cats. Just look at them. Mark Zuckerberg doesn't post pictures of cats. If anything, Zuckerberg eats cats. I have no proof of this but we all know it's true.

@sezduck i'm sure if original Harry Kim had of made it they would've promoted him by that point, shame he was blown out the ship in season 2
