big into timeline curation over here
basically everything that comes up in my feed at this point are liberal-ish pubs and local bars/museums/community associations etc.
and cats that look like Ron Swanson.

I hear you there. Then if you're wondering what someone is up to, you check on them. If not, no worries and no pictures of rainbows and platitudes

feel like there is something deeply insidious about 'inspirational' cultural artifacts
I got a lotta FEELINGS about this tbh because I used to work with people who now post a lot of inspirational stuff to their Facebook. They're still at the job I left 9 years ago. I know what that job pays, and I know there hasn't been a raise since I left unless it's a state-mandated cost of living raise. So while the aesthete/would-be intellectual in me objects strenuously to some of this shit and thinks, y'know, there's SO MUCH MORE to be gained by really getting your hands dirty thinking about the stuff that you're sort of settling for the skimmings of here, I think people sharing & posting these has multiple faces, and one of them is like the 5 O'Clock Funnies, which was something on KLOS in Los Angeles way back when. I'd finish up my workday, which sucked & which I sucked at, and get in the car. The traffic would suck. And KLOS would play 5 minutes of some dumb ass comedy routine, and it would really improve my mood, because there was lots to dislike about my life at the time. I know everybody's got crushing jobs but the tiresome Bible camp counselor in me wants to say "these people could be posting this stuff to say 'here's an oar I grabbed ahold of instead of just reaching for the vodka.'"

“Living is like tearing through a museum. Not until later do you really start absorbing what you saw, thinking about it, looking it up in a book, and remembering - because you can't take it in all at once.”
