@TrinAndTonic@xpatriciah There's enough awful in the real world, why would I spend my fiction-time on it too? I want stories that make me want to be better, that refresh me, that give me hope. Not stories that leave despair and disgust and desensitize us to suffering.
On Wednesday, a 21 y/o white man made 5 women lay down on the floor of a bank and shot them execution style.
Today, a 21 y/o white man shot and killed 5 people in what one officer called, “the worst domestic violence incident [he’d] seen.”
But do go on about a razor commercial.
Tonight I celebrate taking my first bath in my new house, with a captain America bath bomb (it had a Lego dude in the middle!) and then eating ice cream for dinner. Sometimes I make irresponsible choices, but I fully accept the consequences!
Tonight I registered to vote in my new place. Registering to vote is cool. You should do it. If you already registered? Cool. Maybe double check, just to be sure.
Tonight I stopped at the shop looking for a little flippant purchase. Which is slightly different than an impulse-buy. Slightly. I ended up with some ridiculous false eyelashes that go all the way to 11. I am very satisfied with this outcome.
Today I am celebrating all the exciting colors available to us every day. Hair color, lip color, nail color, the colors of our clothes, the colors of our bedroom walls, the colors of our bath towels. Colors are so cool, and choosing ones we like is awesome!
