very little patience these days for people who craft rhetorical arguments to make their claims seem like an emotional or logical necessity instead of grounding them in lived experience and relation to the real or the human
i personally find it exhausting and i don’t understand why someone would willingly insert their email into a box to have this stuff sent directly to their address
but especially especially why would you waste your time reading a newsletter which purports to convey something valuable or essential and yet does so in the language of punditry instead of in the language of art
i’m not specifying which people and which newsletters because the answer is honestly “all of them”
it’s also very depressing looking through my recent bandcamp purchases and seeing how many are all rights reserved
i can’t do anything with this you fools
i saw you
in the cold
wind
when you,
you
buried all,
buried all your
treasured years
your
treasured years

today i think i was typing “opportunities” but i started by writing “opportune” and then my fingers were just like “oh i can finish that, ‘opportune ease’” and no that is not even remotely correct thanks
📟🐱 GlitchCat Sunday Post, 11 December 2022
The GlitchCat #SundayPost offers news and updates from our corner of the fediverse to yours.
§ Instance News :—
Not much news to report today; @aescling finished Breath of the Wild and is now playing Super Mario Odyssey; @Lady has a few things she’s working on but nothing to show for it yet.
Many of us are continuing to use the #DecRecs hashtag to share things we enjoy!
§ Holidays and Observances :—
• 🍵 December 15 is Tea Day. Although the United Nations tries to celebrate this day on May 21 instead, December 15 is the day chosen by the countries where they actually produce the tea. Here are some of the resolutions from a 2008 Tea Day conference in Sri Lanka, and here is what the United Nations has to say regarding the importance of the day.
