This is easily, going to be one of the strangest tweets I have ever written.
Hello, my name is Mel, and I have been entrusted with managing Xial's accounts here and across the web.

Raise your hand if you believe a corporation with shareholders should ever shoulder responsibility for holding custody of people adjudicated guilty in a court of law instead of the state whose courts rendered the sentence.

Have you ever wanted to just disconnect from the flight response that the amygdala provokes in your body? Have you considered how much more you could get done without wanting to duck&cover under the nearest solid thing you can find? I know I've wanted to.

Today's Wednesday. The folks at Blessington decided to retry our graduation ceremony. That means I got to walk across and be congratulated, too, because I completed my Tech Support Services vocation.

Please, PLEASE for the love of ALL that is good, do me a favor. Like, the biggest favor possible.
Everyone in your houses, if you are eligible, register to vote, ensure you are on that registry, and *actually go vote*.

All I can think right now is that I'm somehow lucky that the State is mandated to give me three meals per day...

So, I've been trying to watch a MasterClass on Edovo, *Ron Finley Teaches Gardening*, but our Wi-Fi is THE hottest garbage...

Here at Blessington Correctional, we have no outside contact with a local sangha to further our Buddhism practices. It strikes me as a little sad, but it is not for a lack of trying.

I just HAD to show you all THIS!
Yes, y'all can see what we're being fleeced for whenever we walk up to our dorm's canteen window, and boy, is it exciting to share this with you!
Let's walk down Grifters Lane together, shall we?

Ah, yes. It's another wonderful lockdown at Blessington Correctional Facility. This postpones the graduation ceremonies for students who have completed vocations or education programs to some unknown date and time...

This is kind of an open, informal *thank you* to everyone who has stuck with me on this crazy journey, from the one who sounded the alarm online when I disappeared for several days, to the rest of the group to everyone who came rushing in to support me.

This issue of Concertina Wired carries a strong content warning for the discussion of sexual assault inside US prisons, and how the system totally fails victims in a multitude of ways.

I actually have a few questions that were provided to me from my "Ask Me Something" post, which both surprised and delighted me.

Ask a Florida Prisoner a Question!
Some Qs are barred for now: I'm actively pursuing my case in Florida's legal system.
This means no Qs re: my case / reason I'm in prison.
Answers absolutely not in real time; will be in a followup blog.

Wow. So, our first day on our garden plots was today!
It was nearly a disaster for me, We did not have a water cooler... It's also taught me that I don't consume enough calories for the energy output I did.

I currently have access to one of the Securus JP6s tablets that are haphazardly issued to residents of your system in Florida, and I could not help but notice this...

I recently received and read the book *Monk and Robot*, by Becky Chambers, and I fell in love with the world so deeply that I have to admit my crush on it in public.

In the free world, a patient can fire their doctor or medical practice for any reason... In prison, however, we patients cannot fire our only practice without severe repercussions.
