Be kind to yourself today.
Brain, why you avoid work you know you have to do.
WHY.
We don't need dopamine. We'll live without it today. This work has to get done, it shoulda been done two hours ago.

Doomscrolling is anxiety and depression reaching for a sense of control.
If you want to stop carrying the world on your back donate time or money to some charities that use lawyers to change policy.
When your brain says "Let's read that contentious article." you can say "No, I've already helped."

If you are familiar with the word “geas” from D&D, it might interest you to know that it's a Gaelic word for “taboo.”
In Irish mythology, a geas (pronounced "gaysh") would both grant someone who kept it vigor/magical power, but breaking the geas would spell doom.

I have an online store & recently stocked it with all my soap and some more bath and body products! All handmade by me.
And to celebrate my birthday, shipping is free on orders of $25 or more! Use code ANDEVERYTHING (because I turned 42 and that's the answer to the universe. 😉)

It is my birthday today. I have gone into a place of continual visual decrepitude when I call myself blind. It isn’t a joke. It’s just fact
Anyway, I have books on Amazon you can go by if you want. Maybe give a little blind man a little something to look forward to. Heh, look.

In the early 1980s, the North American video game market became saturated with consoles and low-quality titles, eroding consumer confidence. Home video game revenue fell from billions in 1983 to mere millions by 1985. 🧵⬇️ (1/4)

Affirmation & validation are highly necessary for survivors of gaslighting & emotional abuse in particular-- but they are only a first step, a foundation for rebuilding.
Don't get scared that validating your pain will keep you "stuck" in it.
