Daily Bloomer Thread for the 28th September 2023
(hexbear.net)
The world is pretty shit right now and it can be pretty tiring and heavy. So I've decied to make a daily post for us to share GOOD things that happened recently, whether that's a bigger picture good thing or a small, personal good thing.
Did you make strides in unionizing your work place recently?
Hear about a strike?
See a cool bug?
Help out a comrade?
If so, share it with us in the comments here! It doesn't matter big or small! This is a space to recharge and remind yourself what you're fighting for. Come and vibe!
I've been working with a therapist on making the life I want for myself. It's been really nice because now I have some goals I can work towards.
They were usually too big to process and work towards and now I have clear steps I can identify and keep in mind.
And one of those goals is just to spend two hours once a week doing nothing at all. Don't have to nap or answer texts, or do anything I can call productive.
So I've been returning to the habit of daydreaming and seeing where my mind takes me. Or napping if I feel tired. But just doing something for myself without a profit motive.
The movie Matilda was one of my favorite movies as a kid and I rewatched from start to finish without using my phone, playing a game, or doing chores. I just gave it all my attention and enjoyed the movie for me.
I loved it!
