That money could’ve ended homelessness in the US, or established UBI for every American, student loan erasure, or supercharged every creative industry in existence to pay artists better,

instead of, yknow, blowing it on dead malls full of Elegy of Emptiness statues for rich people

I hate it here

The world needs our action, but it also needs our joy. Please don’t shame people for finding beauty or passion amidst the struggle. Joy isn't a distraction; it’s the fuel we need to keep going. Living as well as we can is a form of resistance, too. We can hold space for both.

Currently on the train back to Seattle from Portland and I’m now even more upset that this is not a more accessible means of travel. I would never step on a plane again if we had high speed rail.

I found out today that my grandparents sold the gas station that they had always owned in my hometown. It made me feel really weird, so I want to talk about it for a sec to no one in particular. 🧵

I’m a little stoned, please forgive if this is a bit rambly.

One of the many reasons AI can't produce good writing is it can't hate its own writing. It can't think to itself "Maybe I'm illiterate" during the writing process. And that's essential

Finished Dispatch over my days off, absolutely phenomenal game. Can’t wait for (hopefully) a Season 2.

Shame is one of the hardest things about ADHD for me. I'm back and the book is finished but instead of feeling proud, I feel ashamed for not having managed to stay active, manage my household better or even shower regularly.

Today I shaved my beard.

Today I also learned that my insecurities about my face currently still outweigh my gender dysphoria.

I feel like I got pulled back to twitter at some point and didn’t really realize it. I want to try to be here more again.
