That's a very stupid question with a perfect answer.

Here's my Blooski statement that Sen. Kennedy calls hyperbolic. I will defend natural law until the day I die, Senator. People's rights come from their humanity, not their government. If ordered to act unethically, you should always refuse. Do Republicans now disagree?

Graphic for Long Covid Awareness Month titled “Facts about Long Covid we wish were not true: #4.” The text states that being in peak physical condition does not protect someone from Long Covid. It explainsthat professional runners, collegiate swimmers, and other athletes have been sidelined, and that formerly active people may experience post-exertional malaise, where even a short walk can trigger a debilitating crash. A teal and gray Long Covid awareness ribbon appears at the top, and a silhouette of a volleyball player appears on the left. The website longcovidcollective.org appears at the bottom.

Graphic for Long Covid Awareness Month titled “Facts about Long Covid we wish were not true: #5.” The text explains that invisible illness is often treated like an imaginary one. It notes that someone can appear healthy while experiencing severe symptoms such as crushing fatigue, neuroinflammation, and heart rate instability that are not visible from the outside but are real and disabling. A teal and gray Long Covid awareness ribbon appears at the top and theater masks appear on the left. The website longcovidcollective.org appears at the bottom.

Graphic for Long Covid Awareness Month titled “Facts about Long Covid we wish were not true: #6.” The text explains that past COVID infections do not protect someone from Long Covid. Each new infection carries a risk of developing Long Covid for the first time or worsening existing symptoms. Dice appear on the left to represent risk. A teal and gray Long Covid awareness ribbon appears at the top and the website longcovidcollective.org appears at the bottom.

Drop names, men:

a netflix ad shows a man and woman dancing in a ballroom Alt: gif of a dancing couple at a ball, spinning in a circle. The smiling woman is wearing a pink sparkly gown and has her arms akimbo, and looks spectacularly happy. This scene is from Season 4 of Bridgerton. The woman is the character Posy Li, played by Isabella Wei

Posy Li is my absolute favorite character on Bridgeton so far.

I LOVE HER SO MUCH

Thank you!

There are much worse things to be known by, I am sure 😁

I'm thinking about Spring and plants and warm soil, wishing I could garden - that made me think of this wonderful story by @aimeeogdenwrites.com published by @castofwonders.org in 2017.

I often see posts saying name an author who you've read 5 books by.

I'm interested in short stories. So how about, name an author you've read 3 short stories by?

Also, the stories have to be published in the last 10 years.

Also, don't say me. 😂
