are they made from real girl scouts?

Girl Scout Cookies - Unfortunately our Service Unit won't be selling cookies online this year due to critical errors with the program. Thank you to those of you planned on purchasing cookies to support our troop, I love you and I'm sorry we weren't able to come through for you. There was talk of trying to utilize another program but I don't think they will have it sorted out in time. It's a shame because this will really hurt our sales.
Twitter - I know I've said this time and time again, but I'm finding social media more and more draining these days. Twitter in particular. It got to the point this week that I actually considered deleting my account. My tl has has become such an unhappy place that I don't even want to read it anymore. So much talk of suicide. People who aren't suicidal mocking those who are. A constant stream of negativity. Fighting. Cruel indirects. Gerard bashing. Annoying cliques. I don't want to unfriend people who are struggling with depression, but for my own mental health I might have to at least mute several people. And then just hope it goes unnoticed. When you mute someone, will you still see their tweets if they @ you directly?

Fandom Snowflake Challenge Day 15 - In your own space, talk about what you're taking away from this challenge.
I'm proud of myself for at least attempting to participate this year. Yes, I skipped more than a few challenges but overall I'm still thankful I tried. I talked with some new people, remembered what it was I loved about fanworks, and walked away feeling a little more connected than I have in a while. I want to try to revisit some of the challenges I glossed over or skipped completely, I have ideas... I just need the time to work them out.

Date: 2016-01-27 08:57 am (UTC)I really don't understand - your TL is soooo different from mine. I have people complaining on my TL, but it's not the same people, not all the time.
It took me a long time to realize that it was okay to unfriend and unfollow people, that I didn't need to make excuses, or justify it to anyone.
I see by the post after this one you did unfollow some people, so that's a good thing. *hugs you*
Also, I'm really proud of how you did participate in Snowflake this year. You still have all the time in the world to finish any challenges you want to do. But good job, sweetie. <3
Boo to no on-line GSC. What's up with that, Girl Scouts?
