so I came across this on Tiktok….I thought that it would be a fun one to check out this week. join me?
I have looked at the Instagram account for the artist…and followed the link to the website. They have amazing art on there. however I don’t see an organization that I am used to with webcomics. Perhaps it is still being setup? I personally plan to keep my eyes on it in hopes of seeing the cute setup in the video.
I found myself scrolling through Tiktok…and I found this. It reminded me of a story that my grandmother told.
yes I am talking about the same grandmother from Grandmother’s Wisdom!
She was born in the 1930’s in Washington DC. She said that young women were not allowed to carry any weapons…but they had hat pins. I put a picture on this post…She told me that the hat pins were sharp and it baffled me. How did women use them with out poking themselves? The hat pins were seriously the same as a dagger in the hands of these young women.
Her story made me think that DC was a really bad place in her youth…(though I guess I can’t say it is a good place now)
I don’t remember the whole story but it was full of the necessary thrill to ensure that the teen I was would be hooked on every word. Now the woman I am in the middle of a dystopian nightmare for women am wishing I could have recorded every single story she told. I will always remember her telling me that Roe vs Wade didn’t make abortion easier to get, it merely made safe abortion easier to get. Women were still getting them, just most of them were dying. She told me about back alley butchers. I was so happy that I was born in post Roe vs Wade America…now I am sorry that I have lived long enough to see my home become a place where I am no longer free.
So, as you know, I had a vacation. Randomly. It was sprung upon me. Then the fourth of July. I didn’t celebrate it, but I did have a cookout planned. I don’t often have people at my place…I am not generally a people person, I am a serious introvert. It was planned months ago. Hence the reason why I said that I would be back on the fifth…I should have said that I would be back next week. Exhaustion has me.
The mental toll of ten days with my family and a basic dinner party are more than enough to drop me. There is a reason why introverts like to be alone. I have found that in the last five days I have dissociated twice. That is more than I had in the six months prior. I am going to be around. I am going to be posting…but it may take me a couple of weeks to get back to the routine again. I need to go slowly to keep from doing damage to my mental health.
I really appreciate your patience as I recover. I do have some exciting things that are coming up soon. I have a lot to share with all of you. I just need to get back into it slowly.
I have mentioned before that I was going on Vacation. I have also mentioned that I have many strong amazing women in my family. I went to see my Aunt at work today.
She is 70 and still working because she believes in the place she works for. My Daughter and I got to get a little tour. I can’t imagine a more amazing place.
My little girl was wishing that we were closer because of how cool she found it to be. It is a place that helps special needs people to do some pretty cool things.
My Aunt works for Challenge Mountain. They do all sorts of things for people who need a little bit of help. Skiing, snowboarding, sailing, biking, art classes, and more. (My Aunt spoke about a 70’s dance that was recently held. ) She showed us safety equipment for disabled people to make sure that the activities were available for all. I honestly was so impressed with the way it was set up.
I know that I said that I was going to be not updating while I am on vacation, but I had to share my adventure today.
So you found a new book?
Or maybe you just published one?
Did you find a new webcomic that you like?
Or a song you think everyone should hear?
No need for explanation…Just Share it.
You find a good deal that you think we should all see? Just share!
Or hey even a joke you think too fun not to share, Just share it.
Post links in the comments.
Occasionally I will too.
So, my mommy messaged me around the beginning of June and said that she was coming to get me around the 18th and keeping me until the 28th. I was not asked if I wanted to go…but I do.. so I am going. I will have internet, but I don’t know what I am going to be doing. So this is your warning. I will not be posting anything during those 10 days…I don’t know if I am going to be able to get myself back to work before the 5th of July (due to a cookout that I decided was a good idea for the fourth) I will be back to posting after the fifth. so please excuse my random disappearance. Have fun and be nice to each other while I am gone…
I feel like hiding under giant mushrooms and playing with the fae. Anyone want to join me?
Due to the lack of spoons and the huge amount of stuff that I am supposed to be getting done…I am noping out of Today. Thank you for your understanding.
Lyrics:
Wanna be loved every night
Wanna know she’s only mine
Breathe her in, give me life
Got all these hearts in line
They all wasting their time
‘Cause only you do me right
Baby, you should pick up the phone
‘Cause I’m wondering if you’re alone
‘Cause I’m driving down Sunset
If you’re ’round, come get it
If you come, come get it
I wanna be missed like every night
I wanna be kissed like it’s the last time
Say you can’t eat
Can’t sleep, can’t breathe without me
I wanna be held, fragile like glass
‘Cause I’ve never felt nothing like that
Say you can’t walk
Can’t talk, go on without me
Aren’t you tired every day?
‘Cause I run through your brain
Hold me down, keep me safe
This is as good as it gets
Don’t you dare second guess
Only want you saying yes
Baby, you should pick up the phone
‘Cause I’m wondering if you’re alone
‘Cause I’m driving down Sunset
If you’re ’round, come get it
If you come, come get it
I wanna be missed like every night
I wanna be kissed like it’s the last time
Say you can’t eat
Can’t sleep, can’t breathe without me
I wanna be held, fragile like glass
‘Cause I’ve never felt nothing like that
Say you can’t walk
Can’t talk, go on without me
Say, say you can’t eat
Say, say you can’t sleep
Say, say you can’t breathe
You can’t breathe without me
You can’t breathe without me
I wanna be missed like every night
I wanna be kissed like it’s the last time
Say you can’t eat
Can’t sleep, can’t breathe without me
I wanna be held, fragile like glass
‘Cause I’ve never felt nothing like that
Say you can’t walk
Can’t talk, go on without me
I wanna be missed, come hold me
I wanna be kissed, come feel me
Come, come make me feel missed (I wanna be missed)
Come, come make me feel missed
I wanna be held, come hold me
I wanna be felt, come feel me
Come on make me feel missed (come on make me feel)
Girl, come make me feel missed
Make me feel missed
My Two Cents-
It’s pride month and I couldn’t resist the urge to post a girlfriend song. I really enjoy this song. I am Pansexual. My blog is always a safe place for all. What is your favorite Gay song?
