Open ThreadWeekly Open Thread - Rants, Raves, Rambles, Reflections, etc
How are you? Got anything on your mind? Not sure you want to make a post about it?
Comment here! New threads starts on Sunday.
My ex has been weirdly nice for about a couple of months which is weird for him. It makes me wonder what's coming down the pipe, I'm sure he wants something. I wish I didn't have to be so cynical but that's always been the pattern since we split up.
I've been really liking my job and had a few people tell me they appreciate the work I'm doing, so that felt really good. It's nice to get some acknowledgement.
I've been consistent at trying to be physically active every week for 9 weeks now and I am seeing an improvement in my energy levels and fitness level, and my clothes are fitting properly again.
My period is late (no, it's not pregnancy) and I'm annoyed, I just want it to start already. Water retention is up, energy is low, skin sucks, I feel fat and slow and meh. All of that will go once it starts. GDI. Just happen already.
I really want to make a blog but I don't want my interests to mix. I had a very jumbled tumblr blog back in the day and I really don't want to go through that process again. But I also can't seem to pick something. I want to talk about technology, feminism, music, philosophy but I feel like something is blocking me from starting. I really don't want to be doxxed.
You can have multiple blogs on tumblr for different interests, and you don't have to announce their connections to each other.
Maybe try doing crypto for a bit? To get your toes wet so to speak, I generally prefer it, just a quieter existence on that site lol. Reblogging and liking in peace.
I can do that but the thought of starting all over kinda sucks. I'll see what I can do. Might be nice to follow and like stuff without a dogmatic message in my inbox
Definitely try it, I have my account and people I follow and I enjoy my feed every day. Nice way to unwind after work, it almost feels like Pinterest a bit, with reblogging to save. I also turned off infinite scroll which honestly helps a lot. You interact differently with what you're seeing. And better conversation, because Pinterest comment sections are some of the most brain dead I've ever seen lol. I feel like even if you do end up making a blog and actually posting original content, having a crypto account is a good way to have a space you can just relax in without drama.
I'm a super proud aunt. My niece just graduated from the police academy. I'm so proud of her transforming her own SA into fighting for others. It's been over a decade since it happened, now she's strong, capable, and level headed. I know she'll be one of the good ones.
Love reading wins like this. I wish her success.
She sounds amazing, I hope she gets everything she wants in life.
