Persona 5, but instead written by queer revolutionary communists

Instant improvement

Especially for black people, prioritizing your mental health, taking it slow, and mitigating the effects of chronic stress right now is a radical act in a world that overworks us to the bone and sees our lives as disposable. Please take care of yourselves right now and smother yourselves with self-compassion! We have to fight but we also need to listen to our bodies and rest. i love you

I never would have guessed that transitioning would cause me to take an interest in astrology and tarot.

But that’s lesbians for ya.

isolation, working from home, disability 

It's probably a bit optimistic to hope that some people will actually develop a bit of empathy for those of us for whom being forced to spend an inordinate amount of time home alone is the norm.

good design: the developers of N++ found that a lot of playtesters felt like they sucked at the game because they kept dying, so they made it so that the demos that play on the title screen are all of the character failing. you'll never see the ninja on the menu reach the exit. it's as if to say "don't worry, you're supposed to die a lot. you'll get there."

hilarious design: as you play the game, those demos get replaced with your own fuckups

Stop believing in authority, and start believing in each other.

asthma inhalers, ecofascism, vent 

The reason this has become a topic in the discourse now is because generic HFA rescue inhalers are now just hitting the market with FDA approval.

asthma inhalers, ecofascism, vent 

When CFC inhalers suddenly got replaced by HFA inhaler two things happened:

1) Pharma companies got to disappear their competition in the form of generic CFC inhalers since the FDA and Friends™ decided the new HFA devices could be patented.

So why now?

So back in Ye Olde Days of ~20 years ago asthma inhalers used chlorofluorocarbon (CFC) as a propellant. You know, the same CFCs that made holes in the ozone layer. Bad shit for the environment. So they replaced them with inhalers that used hydrofluoroalkane (HFA).

... and suddenly CFC inhalers disappeared from the market and two things happened:
