Homeless
Fuck anyone who extends help for their own ego. You are not a good person, if you are only doing it to validate that you are good. Causing more harm, with power dynamics, control and soft threats of taking away what's offered for noncomplying with arbitrary rules that aren't even verbalized. Passive aggressive escalating to irritation, to ignoring to slamming doors and causing damage to physical property. Verbal outbursts. Violently shaking. Communicating boundaries of intolerance to this abusive behavior. Went from losing housing, to losing a friend. Accepting help when you are vulnerable opens up doors for cyclical abuse. That I am no longer tolerating. Despite unstable housing, setting firm boundaries has helped me raise my self worth. I will keep trusting. I won’t let one piece of shit person set me back. Because I now trust myself to handle explosive behavior and in the face of losing everything, I am not losing my mind and bending to someone’s whim or control. I think within this situation. I’ve found myself. My values, my voice. And I don’t give a shit of the consequences because I am nobody’s fucking toy.

Summer of Flings: Gemini Season
The world may be changing- but adaption is key, which is fairly easy for fellow Geminis. Being mutable, an air sign and ruled by Mercury (or known as Greek mythology as Hermes) is a perfect storm for being flexible. With different regulations, stats, and covid restriction you are aware that making out with strangers on the dance floor, or going on your 15th date in person this week is just not doable or a good idea. But that doesn’t mean you can’t adapt and connect in other ways. Phone calls, zoom meetings, tinder/grinder/different apps for communication is all too familiar method of connecting. Testing, getting vaccinated & doing park dates at a distance is all in your future. When the world is on the other end of this- dating and you Geminis will be still very much compatible.

10 swaps you can make
1) Swapping laundry sheets to wool balls. Not only does it help reduce waste (packaging, and chemicals/fragrance, etc) but it dries clothes faster, reduces static, and is a cheaper alternative in the long run. I have 2 sets that I've had for over a year now, I dab a couple of drops of lavender essential oil for a bit of a scent. For a set of 3 they usually run about $5-$10, where as laundry sheets typically run $5-$10 for 100ish sheets.
