hey, you.
stop checking work emails on vacation.
stop telling people “you can still reach me” when you’ve taken time off.
stop cleaning up emails the night before you go back to work (weekend or PTO.)
stop taking responsibility for the company taking advantage of you. if you truly are the *only* person who can solve a problem, that is on the COMPANY. not you.
being buried with work doesn’t mean you have to finish it all right now. you need the time to rest and recuperate. take it. don’t blur those lines. we are working most of our lives, so take the break when you get one.
Depression often follows a serious health event like heart attack, stroke or cancer but it can strike anyone at any time. It is brave of my Senator John Fetterman for getting help when he needed it, as it would be for anyone else who did. He is a role model for people who need help but are afraid of what others think.
I am sure it was difficult for him to go public with his diagnosis. These health issues very much affect their families, too. I wish him success in getting treatment. ❤️
Today's review! A new MM paranormal fantasy romance from Nicole Dennis:
"An epic in one volume – but promising more in a series that I’ll be sure to read... I gave the book its five stars because I was impressed and carried away and moved by the writing and the story."

Here’s something that Twitter expats are not really understanding, not using hashtags on Mastodon is the reason your engagement is underwhelming. Mastodon doesn’t have a search function nor an algorithm to surface inflammatory nonsense all the time. Unless you tag your post it’s only going to reach your followers at the time of posting. If someone is not in front of the app during that time, you might as well shout in the neither. #TwitterMigration #MastodonMigration #MastodonTips
Single mom of a newborn but I still have time to make my coffee, hydration sports drink, and a healthy breakfast with vanilla Greek yogurt sliced strawberries and cinnamon. 👑💅Just being a Superwoman Goddess over here.
So who's keeping me company tonight when I can relax with a glass of wine? It is Saturday after all ;) I'll be logged into Niteflirt probably around 5 or 6 so log in and unwind/relax with me. 😛

Russia's designs on Ukrainian territory violate not only international law, but agreements to which Russia was a signatory. Why do so many people want *Ukraine* to be "realistic"? ICYMI Ralph Clem: https://www.thebulwark.com/that-land-is-their-land/
Several folks have reminded me that SMS 2FA is way better than nothing, and I completely agree with that. But the choice is not between nothing and something inadequate. The choices are nothing, something inadequate, and much better.
Don't even consider paying Musk for something inadequate. Get a hardware key (e.g. Yubi), or if that's too much trouble at least use an authenticator app.

Portrait of Ursula K Le Guin with text:
"We live in capitalism. Its power seems inescapable. So did the divine right of kings. Any human power can be resisted and changed by human beings. Resistance and change often begin in art, and very often in our art, the art of words."
Some people are gonna get pissed That I say this but it's gotta be Said, I've been loosing my confidence in Merrick Garland, If He has a prob with indicting former pres Then step aside let someone else who will like Preet Bharara Jack Smith Hillary or Eric Holder, If Merrick Garland doesn't have a Prb with it then it's beyond time to arrest that orange treasonous prick, Jack Jack Smith will confirm to indict TFG then Merrick Garland must arrest that orange treasonous prick , DOJ make it so 👇

In 20 years, l'll be either dead or 80.
Brexshit has destroyed the last part of my life.
I do not forgive anyone who voted for it.
Mostly reclusive and carrying slightly damaged goods. A survivor by some accounts. Definitely in need of much therapy. ;)
Staunchly anti-fascist
Bear in mind that, while I may "like" your "toot", about a person, event or particular topic, if it links to the "bird-site" I will no longer boost and inadvertently contribute to their grift. Everyone has a choice and a part to play when crimes go unpunished.
