I’m worried for the world. All I’ve been thinking about is WW3 and this shit makes me want to vomit. I can’t even smoke weed anymore without having a near panic attack. I feel unmotivated. I wake up and immediately just want to go back to bed. I’m not trying to spread fear but the Doomsday clock is 90 seconds till midnight, during the Cuban missile crisis, it was 7 minutes before midnight. Can we just have one day of fucking peace? Can everyone just stop for one day and enjoy one day of peace?

    Your mother sounds like an amazing woman. I’m sorry to hear everything she (and you and your siblings) had to go through. It takes incredible resolve to survive all that.

    As someone who’s had poor health their entire life, I can absolutely agree that the ‘tender moments’ really make life what it is.

    Thanks for sharing.

      I have a friend who went through throat cancer. Her boyfriend left her, her job isn’t great, her rent is high, in her 40s with no kids.

      She goes for long walks, does bellydancing, makes her own clothes, and is genuinely one of the most interesting person’s I’ve ever met. Do what makes you happy, kind stranger
