sometimes (all the time) paywall content feels like high society clickbait that leads me to a closed door with free newsletter pamphlets and donation links because I am riffraff without an access card.

@Naturalistic671 what do you mean “still here”?! your last tweet (do we still call it this?) was early july!

[Jess Merrill @jessmerrill]

Real question - are we still here or nah? I’m seeing a lot of “damn the man” peeps still hanging around. I need to know where to put my dumbest thoughts and I want them sent into the proper void. Please @ me.

[Jess Merrill @jessmerrill]

@crasiesix71 That’s good to know. I ramble best at people when we’re all confused together. The ‘other place’ is equally dark.

[Jess Merrill @jessmerrill]

@ziegler34 do you shuffle between here and there? just here? is this our tar pit?

My mom just sent me a photo of her amazing kitchen pantry organization. I’m so happy for her… I’m also happy for me and this opportunity to clearly see all the food I’m going to take from her house. @julie_manglona 🙋🏻‍♀️ #adulting

feeling dangerously close to canceling on the thing I said I’d attend that nobody knows I’m attending so nobody will care if I cancel but it still makes me feel bad for maybe not going.

I’m not a big fan of the IYKYK acronym. It’s safe to assume IDK.

where’s the virtual repair person that has all the knowledge/patience and will walk me through fixing a (seemingly) minor aircon issue in real time, over facetime or zoom?

[Jess Merrill @jessmerrill]

@_niamango fake news.

[Jess Merrill @jessmerrill]

not to spread rumors but I think the answer is… yes.

Solidarity breeds validation lol
