I have a kitty named Artemis. She's an adorable calico 🖤

I wouldn't trust a guy with the name 'wyrmtongue', but that's just me. Maybe I'm just built different. But I wouldn't make my most trusted advisor a guy called 'wyrmtongue'

Yes, my job is still stressing me out.

I do find it strange when people use "he/she" to describe people when "they/them" is right there.

People missing an important point about folks getting fired for whatever they said about Charlie Kirk: Americans are being conditioned to be snitches on their fellow citizens who don’t toe a party line on what is “allowed” to be expressed. And employers are going along. It’s the new secret police

Live your life in such a way that people do not celebrate your passing.

I cannot imagine a life lived in a prison of hatred, that one has placed their own self into.

That is hardly a life at all. That, is the tragedy.

I initially thought about doing it for this year but September is a fucking popular as hell wedding month in this region so most everyone is booked!

I also need to make a realistic workbook schedule because I'd love for this to happen in the next year in time for September/October!

Currently nailing down my big must have details and then I'm going to start connecting with vendors ✨️

I am going to do a styled shoot that's weird, creepy, and gay as fuck 🖤

Cool cool cool ... now I have an app where I can read the notes from my therapist and psychiatrist and it definitely is not going to impact what I share in therapy 🫠

Very quickly remembering that I do not fit within certain spaces because of how I look & what I believe in and that is by design of those that have created those spaces.

It's totally chill though 😌 👌🏻 there's like Tiktok and like a new Superman movie and like a lot things to consume and be distracted by (as long as I'm spending money). But don't worry. It's all super duper chill 😎😌.

a busy busy schedule, the way nothing I seem to do is ever enough, the constant need to be perfect, the inherent worthlessness that shadows each step, and the immutable fact of consistent failure etc etc...this has all swirled into a sticky sticky sludge that's difficult to wade through.

So much contributes to this like the overall state of the world, colonization, genocide, government bs, cost of living, AI and art, regular depression, avoiding the ever present and imposing trauma, anxiety about work, anxious spirals about what other people think of me, the really really bad sad,

It's not the middle of the year if I don't share how overwhelmed and tired I am. That sentence makes more sense in my sleep deprived brain.
