"Surprise!"
"Is that..? OH MY COD IT'S A WATERPROOF E-BOOK!"
"I hope you like the books I loaded on there for you..."
She couldn't hear me over her broad translucent fins slapping the sand & surf excitedly.
"I can finally read in bed! Oh oh I can finally join a book club!"
"Uh, I dunno if there's any beach-side ones here..."
"My girlfriend will just have to start one, then."
"I'll look into it tonight, love."
"Yay!"

breakups
also… some of the people involved already softblocked me, answering the question for me, but… how aggressively should I re-privatise
Earlier today I almost deleted my twitter account because I didn't want to see what my ex was up to… and I hardly ever post because I don't want to upset anyone or impose on anyone……
I think the answer to “was [x person in my past] a good person?” is “does it matter? It doesn’t change that it happened, and *you* can be a good person *now*.”
straggling witches alight, in ones and twos, streaming toward the horizon. behind them, the town's lights wink off in sync with the exodus.
eventually there's only starlight, and the guttering blue flicker of the gate's massive torches.
in the distance, a witch calls a missing cat; she soon ascends skyward, a furry head peering from her satchel. she spots you looking on.
"everything well, sister?"
"as well as can be; i suppose. i'll be on my way, just taking one last look."
"i understand. blessed be, friend, and farewell."
"you, too. goodbye."
as you finally prepare to fly, you're still thinking of the expression on her face, and the sound of her voice.
Poverty
I often tell friends who are struggling to put food on their plate they should apply for SNAP or go to the food bank
They often reply that they don't want to take it from the people who really need it
Friends, if your bank account is zilch and you're begging online for donations to buy food, you're the people who really need it. It's for you. I only ever got myself out of poverty by taking advantage of every social service available.
Try the food bank.
Gentle reminder: I'm a poor unemployed woof swimming in debt and I need some sort term financial help to pay some of it down:
