So I'm looking for advice. I have a permanent migraine (24/7/365 pain, a migraine ouroboros, if you will) and I'm also a writer. I say that, but my brain can't handle the complexity to complete anything more than a short story. I've been working on a novel for 30 years and

⚠️ Warning: these back-to-back scenes are hard to watch unless you’ve got a depraved heart.

This weekend, three men in Evanston hugged their families goodbye to look for work at Home Depot but were attacked by ICE before they could return home.

Two were abducted, one is petrified of leaving the home.

ICE in DC, driving a white SUV with Ohio Plates.

Need to dox him and his entire life. If migrants deserve no peace, then this mofo deserves none.

Wait, are you saying MY 'Thinking Stone's doesn't work? Then again, I've been using it to solve non-business problems, so maybe that's why. 🤔😂

Steve insists his ‘Thinking Stone’ helps him solve complex business problems. I have yet to see the results.

I think I actually began turning to dust upon reading that. I'm only 48, but I feel as old and obsolete as Rip Van Winkle. In fact, a nap sounds good right about now...
