georgia on (all of our) minds

So.....

Yeah, here we are, Georgia still in play for the election. I have strict rules for my doom-scrolling, but my state rep is tweeting out a screen cap every time Biden inches closer. It's very satisfying even as it's more than a little nail-biting. fwiw, we are going to have to count every single vote in Georgia before we can make the call (and then probably have to recount, so I'm trying to remember to breathe.)

Since my brain is still not quite up for breezy life commentary (and we don't need to add more to our doomscrolling), have a few more links:

This thread from clairewillet about media that focuses on granting emotional satisfaction to its readers/viewers/what have you, with enough examples that I've started a spreadsheet to keep track of the possibilities (because it is going to be a long, long winter and I already know I'm not going to be able to think much, but picking something off a list might work.)

I have recently subscribed to the newsletter The Department of Salad to add another point of inspiration wrt getting more veggies (joyfully!) into my daily life. At the very least, it reminded me how much I love fresh dill (which I have in abundance rn) in egg salad.

As I mentioned before, while I'm not doing NaNo this year, I did once again sign up for mini_wrimo and if that might sound like something you're kicking yourself for missing out on, I'm here to tell you that you can sign up until 10 November this year. (I'll totally cheer for you in the daily comments if I know your name, promise!)

Does anybody do LibraryThing? They've gone to free accounts and hey, they're not owned by amazon. That seems worth checking out...?

Ciao, bellezze; I'm going to go try to deal with the office. Breathe, wear a mask, keep on keepin' on, ♥
