Have a Le Monde sub and I'm considering Mediapart as well! Would like one quality USA source, though, but I feel completely at a loss for that adjective, though ("quality").

I haven't cancelled mine yet, but I'm beyond fed up. Already avoiding the app and site entirely, so the cancellation is coming. Are you going to subscribe to something else instead? And if so, what...? I feel stuck.

I considered these for my Ramona in her old age! I didn't think she'd use them, though. How's Bernie adapting?

As a child, who did I think I would be as an adult? I couldn’t remember. And then my mother handed me an old school report.

I have a book I bought sitting there waiting to be read for months now for exactly this reason. Not mentally *there* yet.

I don't snack simply because if I give myself that sort of freedom, just to munch whenever, I *will*--even when I'm not hungry. Not a good idea.

Right!? The spiraling is not a good thing... especially when you really do think a break would be helpful. Not fair for it to then bite you in the butt.

Even when I think a break is "a good idea," the dastardly doldrums bring me down when I haven't come to the page in a few days. Why do I keep forgetting this? The games our minds play on ourselves, I swear.

The triathletes leaving their bikes at the ready for tomorrow’s race. I’m in full crew and support mode this weekend. (Which means, thank goodness, no, I am *not* racing.)

For me, I'd probably base it on the usage. I paint with words, after all. In this sentence, it's goshdarnit one word.

No, autocorrect, you are not going to get me to agree that "rollercoaster" is two words. Stop it.

June was a hodgepodge of experiences professional and personal and otherwise, which made it an emotional rollercoaster of a month. And with more of those ahead, too.

Funny, I see that and think "Super Mario Bros. mushroom" rather than any sort of "real" mushroom. Shows my age, I suppose...! 😅

Egad. Seems like people everywhere are down for the count with something this past few weeks. Colds or COVID or could be anything. Glad you're keeping cozy--keep that up!

I'm going to print this out and tape it to the computer. Ruthless and kind. A tricky but important balance!

I’ve noticed an interesting confluence of holidays celebrating their nation’s founding over the three countries where I focus most of my energy these days: France, Switzerland, and the United States.

Interesting that it seems you have to have something to hawk to get on a podcast or program, though I find product-promo-links guests almost always the least interesting.

I am *so* glad I'm not alone! I've noticed that when I log in anymore, I leave more doldrum-y than before. I used to drop in, have a few little chats for a fun brain break... but that's not possible anymore. I guess we'll get more writing and reading done... but I miss the author community!

Finding social media so exhausting in the global political climate. It's not the brain break it once was. Renewing my call for personal blogs. That felt more manageable and enjoyable, back in the day, especially when the world was almost too heavy to lift.
