Dear Demi. This was very long, but you know what? I just might be a "sl😂w reader" and I ✔️'d off four miles on my treadmill. Perfect distraction. I can not choose a favorite entry, all of them were entertaining and "thought provoking" for real 😬😂. This was like reading a freaking BOOK

I am not sure how I contributed any wisdom or silliness to enjoy a mention of my name in this huge pile of people... people pile.... uh, list. Thank you for adding me to this list.

Now I will endeavor to click on each of these names and learn about these humans. This is a great activity whilst tread milling. I do not enjoy tread milling but I do so because once you stop moving, you stop moving.

I love this so much!! Thank you, Rosemary!!

I don't always post all of the responses to each thread, but anyone listed in here contributed to one of these threads or a prior thread leading up to these in some way. I do it this way to err on the side of hopefully including everyone who played a part!! So, thanks again!! 🙏🏻💜💫

I love this weeks! And thank you for the shout out Demi!

If you want to check your fact checkers on Facebook and block them this is what you do. Go to blocking. And click on the Blue box with the white + sign and type in Factchecker. All the fact checkers spying on you will appear. Now you can go through and block them all. I checked mine this morning and I have 91. Then type in moderator and do the same thing as well is gatekeeper. Think of the different combinations. I have about 300 today, which believe it is a lot less than a few years ago when one time I had to block about 1000 of them. 😬😬😬 I tried to clean this every few months or so but I haven’t done it in a while. So it’s really dirty today. I need to get out of the comet! 🤣

Hahaha great stuff as always. Thanks for the mention and the laughs. It is what life is about. Laughter. Humor. Especially self deprecating dry humor. Gallows humor. Just humor.

I choose humor over hubris.

Thank you Demi for including me in your amazing scroll: the corrupt version.

Much fun to be had: in the weeds, off side, out of bounds, past the gates, in the china shop on a bull... when one leaves behind the schooled daze. To find vast valley's of easily discoverable truths are awaiting for our foot steps, our frosty breaths, our curiosity.

No idea where and how these memes get sourced but they’re always freaking hilarious!

Thank you so much! Mostly, these are just conversations I'm having over the course of the week prior. Many of us think in memes, music, and film quotes in addition to whatever else we're thinking, so the media parts just end up mixed into the soup along with the rest! I appreciate it! :)

The twisted pair of which I know quite a bit is twisted pair phone line. We upgraded to Cat5 and later there were other cats whose guts became hard wired into phat pipes. iykyk

If you go to antique shoppes, estate sales, and oddity stores, you can sometimes find old school Ma Bell era phones. If you then hook two such phones to each other by twisted pair cables you can generally get enough "signal" across the wires to talk from one to the other without any other network. I refer especially to the rotary dial era phones of yore.

Definitely. I held onto a princess rotary for emergencies.

“My home’s frequency was not the frequency of the place that exists in its wake. It’s like the feeling you get from a dead mall or a special place from childhood after time has passed that you go back to, and because the energy is that of such a dramatic temporal shift, you end up with your consciousness driven inward there, sitting in your memories, trying to reconcile the discrepancies, rectifying this energetic chasm instead of experiencing it as it is in the present. It almost feels like the mind is trying to allow for the lost time to pass symbolically as you sit there because it’s trying to at least split the difference. Maybe it’s some kind of processing ritual our minds do to make sense of it when it feels off.”

Beautiful. Perfect.

This explains how I have felt so many times returning to the area I grew up in around Atlanta.

Save this for your book and if I ever write one this paragraph will be in it with attribution.

I make sure to acknowledge my handler with a middle finger at least once a day. Probably I have no such handler, so It goes for the devil as well.

I definitely have two stones, but you don't necessarily need stones to tell the devil to fuck off 👌
