Decided that I would showcase some Pepturo and what their relationship is like... through inspiration from a Garfield comic (under the cut)

Someone pissed me off a couple of days ago

So! Below are several links to programs and foundations that promote adult literacy! Hundreds of millions of adults world wide were failed by their education system and now must fend for themselves while trying to read contracts and hospital bills and infographics from the CDC. But they don't have to be alone, and it is never too late to learn!

ProLiteracy: A network of educators, researchers, and advocates which provides research reports, learning materials, and other support to adult education programs. They assist with connecting volunteers to local programs and provide guidance and support to community leaders trying to use their programs' findings to advocate for social and political change.

Adult Literacy League: An adult education program in Central Florida, which aims to provide students with one on one attention to foster growth and confidence. It also offers English Second Language courses and job skills training, and each new student receives a comprehensive assessment to determine the best plan for them.

Saint Vincent and Sarah Fisher Center's Foundational Skills Program: A 100% free adult education program aimed at adults reading below a fifth grade level. It operates year round and is either in person or remote, and they now have a GED testing center that is open to students and the public alike.

Washtenaw Literacy: A free network of trained tutors for adults in Washtenaw County, Michigan.

Adult Learning Program (Las Vegas/Clark County): Free education classes to those lacking a high school diploma, those seeking to learn ESL, and adults who read below an eighth grade level. Also assists in students' search for gainful employment. Nevada got so fucked by COVID and the education/literacy numbers in the South West are grim. Please help these guys.

Hawaii Literacy: In addition to helping adult residents of Hawaii Island learn to read and write AND bridging the education gap in Hawaii's underserved children, they offer computer literacy classes, ESL classes, and a bookmobile. 1 in 6 Hawaiian adults struggle to read and write.

I love the formula between 9-1-1 and 9-1-1 Lone Star and I want there to be a 9-1-1 for at least every state but preferably every single town in the US

Mostly, I want to see what hyper local and very silly disasters they can write to strike my town

[macroglossus]

really annoying when people feel the need to counter matter-of-fact admittances of personal weakness. like no i’m not “putting myself down” when i say i have a really poor grasp of spacial reality i’m saying that sometimes i need to pull up a map to get to the grocery store in the city i’ve lived in since i was a toddler

Trying to find something to go with these tights? I don’t have a lot of bright clothes that match them, so went more in a mixing it with lighter colors sort of direction, maybe sort of sky themed (rainbow with the blue and white clouds)?

This isn't an upgrade.

If I see one more hospital white interior design, I'm going to lose my mind.

I've seen a video of this woman whose entire living room (and presumably entire house) is white. White floors, walls, carpet, furniture, decorations - everything. But the absolute cherry on top - and I don't think I'll ever recover from this sight - was the picture of her children on the coffee table that was in black and white.

She simply couldn't let her children ruin the aesthetic of the place and figured out the best way to go about it is to make it look like they're dead. It was the most bizarre thing I've seen in my life after that soulless white void Kim Kardashian calls home.

I'm not exactly sure when it was decided that homes should be these sterile places whose goal is to make it seem like no one lives there, but seeing these spotless white rooms with no clutter, no fridge magnets, no decorations you've collected over the years, photos, at least one old as fuck thing you refuse to get rid off, random stains, all the things that hold your life in there, it all makes me irrationally angry.

God forbid your home gives anyone the idea that you actually live there.

songbird's brain: I think we ought to have a personal copy of the Chronicles of Narnia in our personal library. As a treat.

part of songbird's brain that has been keeping track of the literary 'treats' purchased in the past few months: says WHOSE WALLET

tw: drug addiction

i just gotta say, the sound of the phone ringing and the sirens, both so masterfully folded into the beat at the beginning of agnes, is fucking bone chilling. it gives me waves of chills every single time and i don’t think that feeling, the feeling of full-body bouts of chills that course through me from the crown of my head to the tips of my toes until dave’s voice kicks in, will ever go away.

this song captures the trajectory of addiction SO well. i literally cannot even put it into words. but it’s so comforting????? it’s so comforting to hear someone else who has presumably lost a loved one (a close friend, in this situation) to the demon of addiction, outline the full course of its development.

i feel like,,, if you don’t have someone close to you who has struggled with and fought with addiction, it is so difficult for you to truly and fully understand how devastatingly heartbreaking—and excruciatingly painful—it is to watch the ravenous monster that is addiction fucking devour this person from the inside out. slowly. it corrodes their smile, it decays their mind, it dulls every single aspect of life except for when they’re high. they become nothing more than a shell of their former selves; a host for this parasitic sickness, who’s only care in life is that next fix, irregardless of what they have to do or who they have to hurt to get it.

and once that monster has been birthed inside of you, it never fully goes away. you fight it for the rest of your fucking life, irregardless of how much treatment you’ve gone through, irregardless of if you’re in treatment for the rest of your days on this earth. you battle those psychological cravings until you die, especially if your addiction was a coping mechanism or a self-soothing mechanism (which is so often is). it changes you and your life forever. and i dunno, i guess i feel like there’s still so many people who just can’t comprehend this and comprehend how much of a sickness addiction truly is. and i guess it’s really nice to find an artist you admire so much who DOES get it, who HAS experienced it. that’s all, i think.

I’m sorry but “we take no pleasure in reporting that Cracker Barrel has fallen” is one of the funniest sentences I’ve read all week.
