2. "My latest pet peeve is bad Black country music " In response to Reply # 0
There are some singers that desperately want to do caucasian intonations about Black subjects and it is AWFUL. It’s like the opposite of white rappers trying to make history rap sound mainstream. Whatever the opposite of that, this is. I will always have a soft spot for Black country, but this shit isn’t good
I'll believe that my life matters to you When I'm more than taxidermy for your Facebook wall They say the best songs are three chords and the truth Until that truth requires you to heed the call
I'm not a martyr I'm not a headline for your morning news report Or a political debate you can retort I'm a man who had some dreams that got cut short A casualty among far too many to sort But they'll argue I deserved it in the courts And the mission will get tough, so you'll abort And leave me a mangled mess that they'll distort Until I'm nothing more, Than taxidermy on your Facebook wall Taxidermy on your Facebook wall

i considered joining but eh too many reasons to say no. maybe once covid is actually gone.
no idea what i would take, im typically the drinks/chips/cookies dude.
i got some cold/sinus infection/allergies this weekend. keeping that mask on for this week. the numbers here are low except for a couple days were they spiked. last week has been about 40 cases per day. im thinking im might consider not wearing it next week but overall im not in a hurry to take it off. its mostly in the mornings when im walking into the office with my glasses all fogged up that i kind of wish i wasnt wearing it lol

and drinking less and trying to be healthier over all. I could totally eat some french toast at 10:30 tonight though! I used to do stuff like that in my 20's. Can't now though.
Hearing that Traci Braxton passed really made me sad! I wanted to binge watch Braxton Family Values this past weekend but it wasn't available on any of my streaming services. I ended up watching a full day's worth of clips on YouTube.
COVID ain't going nowhere and neither is my mask.
My boss is on some real bullshit. It is overwhelming.
I am planning my mom's 70th birthday celebration this summer. Working on that helps me not think about work after work.
I wish I was a better painter. I paint for relaxation. I find stuff online and paint it myself, but sometimes I want to have an idea or an emotion and put it on paper.

6. "hearing dudes who want to adopt their new lady’s kid is adorable" In response to Reply # 0
but but then hearing how the relationship didn’t last or went south and now the mother has to share custody with a dude who isn’t the biological father is weird af to me.
Don’t get me wrong, if its been years and years I get it but what if you broke up a year after adopting the kid and the break up was ugly?
This happened to a coworker and shit is mad ugly right now. Doesn’t feel safe but still has to give her bio daughter to this dude?
Also makes me wonder about my Sister in Law. I can see her pressing the mew dude ti adopt these kids since she already forces them to call him Daddy even tho their Bio Dad still lives in the same city.

10. "Still in a funk at work but slowly finding my creative juices" In response to Reply # 0
One of the problems is just in my head.
I told my boss I just want to design shit.. content writing isn’t my thing.
so now I just design shit.. and they hired a technical writer.
and I got in my feels seeing some of the responsibilities I had go to her. Brought up imposter syndrome
but now I’m getting back my creative juices and shaking off that doubt.
Going to the coast this weekend to get some much needed beach time.
