@ReallyVeryCrunchy
Even if some people don't want to believe I have had some of the experiences I had, it's not an excuse for the other random acts of sexism and racism they're continually perpetuating in their everyday lives.
As for my opinion on my own experiences...
Yeah, for me, I know those experiences actually happened.
Dude, I don't care if you don't believe me. It doesn't matter that much to me.
There's actually other much more important things to care about then you believing a weird story I've had happen to me.
Like, how about you just get much better at restoring some of your own empathy and your own humanity?
That would be good for you and your health.
Acting like only the unwell men were the legitimate veterans is just so false and unpatriotic.
What about all the other kinds of veterans?
Why do you have to unsee all kinds of people in order to have a "good life?"
It doesn't look that good.
It could be much better. It could be so much better.

The back of my throat feels kinda like two leathery lips resting on top of one another.
And that's different from how it felt yesterday.
Yesterday was a milder sore throat and more face pain.
There's much less face pain today.
So it's maybe evolving.
It's the flu that's on a special journey.

I am very bummed out about losing my sense of smell. I really hope that's temporary. Please, help me get my beautiful sense of smell back.
Make it so!!!!💐
Just because you acted like oppressing daughters was one of your great comforts yesterday, and you got praised and rewarded for that. You can do better now.
Can't smell the relaxing lavender sleep balm. Nor can I smell lavender oil from a bottle. I hope my sense of smell comes back.
Please help me and my body to fully heal even tho we have been experiencing so much suffering and grief but I know I must believe we can get better and we can access healing, too.
I woke suffering again with the flu and more congestion on the left side and I truly prefer to experience better feelings and healing now. Please help me know how I can repair and heal my respiratory system and my immune system. Please send me the beautiful healing energies today. Please. Thank you. Blessings.
I pray for healing in a time of great sorrow, that the beautiful traits of compassion and healing can still be awakened, in a time where girls are crying because their society abandoned them and boys are saying demeaning things to them in schools and online because their parents voted for a bully who doesn't respect girls and women. What a sad time for these ignorant people. I pray to experience better and to feel better and to feel love and to heal my own body soon.
Please bless me with magical sleep.
Please bless every soul.
I am really tired of this flu and how it just seems like after it seems to get better, it changes the symptoms and comes back again.
You're here, flu. I acknowledge you. Can we please move on now? You deserve better, too.
Everyone deserves amazing health. I deserve to feel better and to enjoy really great health.
Please help me heal. And not, like, die or something ridiculous like that!
I must heal from the flu. Knowing that some people's parents were selfish and not especially trustworthy and they were too much in the pocket of the patriarchy and they made decisions that were harmful for themselves and other people and even for their own children as well is quite depressing, so I will pray to ask higher healing sources to help me move through that heavy knowledge, and please help me to go in a more healing direction, so I can relax and heal from the awful flu.
I said to the universe please please please please please help me relax and I feel the universe is listening I said I know I deeply know I truly know I have to relax more I have to allow the healing to happen in my body.

at least we can know that those sorry drunken and unappealing grabbers have been able to express even a wee bit more humanity than some of the shysters so many people were taken in by during the 2020s in this Nation O' Damaged Daddy Issues!
There's got to be better ways of be being here for someone who is like I am, and who is living in this kind of a life right now.
Don't see how some people can even keep on going along with it anymore!
It's as if all that entertainment that's obviously been catering to society's insecure white guys way more than it has been for anyone else is actually just a horrible and painful ordeal! Worse than menstrual cramps! Jesus.
I don't understand why treating girls and women like crap is so essential to your "privileged" lifestyle. It's a real failure of the imagination!
Random LinkedIn Guy is more interested in standing up for the rights of women and girls than most of the nation's parents in the 2020s.
He doesn't like the trend of guys who say "Your body, my choice," and he is making a stance on LinkedIn about it.
Anyways, the line between what the narcissistic guys in show business keep doing and whatever fuels misogynistic MAGA cult behavior seems thinner than ever.
Childish people voted for a troll who lives to deliver entertainment and they feel entitled to steamroll the human rights of everyone else just to recover even a small temporary morsel of glee for themselves. Willful ignorance is their bliss.
My throat is really sore, and so is my face, and so are some teeth, so no, it's not the best evening I ever had.
I guess I will go find a better remedy to help myself not feel so awful now.

I can't believe your conservative friends / sexist relatives / racist neighbors knew what was better for you and your children and the country than what several generals who normally would have voted conservative knew, but since they had already tried to work with the unwell bully who never recovered from his unhappy childhood the last time he was elected, they completely refused to vote for him this time around.
Oh, I am so sorry. I have got to focus on my health. Sorry, I got off track. I got to go and focus more on my health. Gotta get better at doing that!
Who makes having money and success actually look unappealing, kind of like like shoveling s*** out of a pit?
Well, there are some people who are clearly untrustworthy, fearfully greedy, and their version of "values" make it seem like they don't care about human rights very much, at all.
That's the sort of people who make focusing "money and success" at the expense of everything and everyone else look quite bad for one's health.

"Trump himself, an adjudicated rapist who has bragged about both committing sexual assault and engineering the reversal of Roe v Wade, speaks of women in vulgar, degrading terms. He picked a running mate who has denigrated childless women as 'psychotic' 'cat ladies'. His adviser and funder Elon Musk, who seems to have designs on becoming something of a shadow president in Trump’s second term, is a techno-fascist pro-natalist who goes around offering women insemination.
The Trump campaign positioned itself as a champion of a hierarchical gender order, aiming to restore men to a place of wrongfully deprived supremacy over women. Many of his voters cast their lot in with Trump hoping that he would do just that."

Kitty is so kind and loving with her humans.
She's kind of mean to the neighbor cats if they want to get in her yard, but at least I'm not trying to put her in any important government positions based on the neglect I personally have suffered.
So I guess I don't have to worry about that too much?
Still sick, with more sneezing and eye watering, but hopefully this flu is progressing.
When your mom and dad still make far too many excuses for certain abusive men? And why, just because they got some happy chemical boosts and materialistic gains from their unwell society doing that? Are you fated to be indentured to their insecurities and addictions for your whole life?
They had such sad, tragic childhoods. Oh, humanity must be evolving. Just fascinated by that tragic sadness, and not knowing why. Just so much need amongst the sad people. Temporarily relying on ways that will not be able to sustain them for much longer. What a weird choice. There were probably other choices that could have been made. Oh well.
I'm listening to good meditations to try to help heal myself from the awful sorrow, and to begin heal just from knowing that people have been so sad.
I want my cat to have a better life then what some people seem to want for their very own children. It's so depressing. Angels weep at the cruelty of the ignorance that's been foisted upon people who deserve so much better. I need to help my body somehow heal from this sad experience. I need to boost my mood and my immune system somehow.
I feel like my body needs so much more healing. Want to cry so much; it feels so awful. Need healing, cry, cry, cry, cry, cry....
You just cannot believe how many excuses some people will make to avoid dealing with reality.
I hope it helps! Even though I got sick, possibly in part from a lot of stress, and it's rough, I am glad I was able to stand up for my true feelings with multiple kinds of people who should have known better. But I hope they might know better in the future.

James Taylor - Fire And Rain (BBC In Concert, 11/16/1970)
Pretty weird how I had to stand up for some beliefs just to not let a situation that had gotten too violent and unhealthy continue, and I did it on behalf of myself and another, and the result was an interesting and substantial improvement but now I have a long illness and I really want it to get better. Let's pray to Jesus some people will get more curious and less wilful in their ignorance in the future. In the meantime, health is the number one priority. Like, please keep yourself alive and don't get into a worse health situation. I bet relaxation and curiosity are two great traits to learn more about when it comes to being able to recover from an illness. I look forward to some good progress being made really really really really soon.
Perhaps the early part of today has been a mourning / despair day, and it's the bottom, but could it begin to get better, and what if this doesn't have to become any worse than it's already been?
I need to heal, get better, make healing my number one priority again.
Prayers and good energy.
Please let us heal. It's a beautiful thing. I so want to heal. I felt shaky. But surely I can get better soon.
I need to try to sleep more. The flu is not fun. Life in a body can be so demanding. Oh! I need the healing and the enlightenment more than ever...

"It didn’t matter that Trump didn’t offer much in the way of specific policies to guarantee an improved economy or to lower the price of eggs, bacon or housing. Even as he rambled off course at his rallies, he kept returning to a message about safety and economic security, and he created an impression that he was looking out for the average person’s kitchen table concerns. In the stories he told, he cast himself as the hero and identified a long list of villains to stoke a reliable gust of grievances from people who feel like they live at America’s margins. In his grim fairytale, the villainous forces included a bloated government, out-of-touch Democrats and immigrants stealing the jobs from and poisoning the blood of 'true' Americans. Exit polls suggest that even some significant share of immigrants who voted didn’t want 'those people' jumping ahead of them in line or gumming up their chances to be seen and embraced by real America."
