Stay alive. Keep fucking living. As the old song goes it’s always darkest just before the dawn, so stay awake with me let’s prove them wrong. We are going to see the sun rise together. I have seen it. And I can tell you it is going to be more beautiful than you can
Moreover, ICE must be destroyed

We’ll watch the sunrise together, it’s a date 💛
I don’t know why this just registered but I had a really hard day and I’m just laying in my bad crying. All of the feelings, thoughts, physical sensations just slap me across the face about 30 min after I get home….

Damn the 80/580 is just fucked both ways. People driving like assholes on the shoulders, people try to merge last min on exits. Even surface streets are crazy. My advise — completely avoid the area for the next hour or two if at all possible

System of a Down is consisted dad music now, and that's true, correct, and good. Time marches on inexorably, and makes dad music of it all.

I started this at the beginning with low expectations but I’m back on board lol
Almost done with chapter 3 and I like it. At least stuff happens, the plot isn’t just a bunch of fluff. Do I live the Russian aspect? Not really, but it makes sense. Plus I just love the colors!
But all of this could have been covered in maybe two season. We’ll see what charter 4 holds…

Managed to actually burn myself with my Trader Joe’s butter chicken.
Why does it always ooze out?? Why can’t I just let it sit for two min??

You know what’s really crazy? Thoughts and feelings. I still can’t believe the number I have, just in a single day.

It’s 11:15 pm PST and I’ve been drinking. Time to tune the Bose headphones to the TV so I can blast my shitty music without disturbing people… like an adult

Omg — I completely forgot to share:
I finally met someone who said ‘we should start a podcast’
Stay tune folks, I’m much more charismatic when I speak

Look - all I’m advocating for is for is for media creators to respect people’s time… but then again I’ve come to love Eyes Wide Shut so what do I know?

Marveling at the cross over between It, Nightmare on Elm Street, and Stranger Things.
If you like cosmic wtf horror, check out the Reddit novel The Phenomenon. Started off as a creepy pasta the the writer just went with it.

11 just murdering people like it’s an episode of The Boys
Who the hell is 008 and why does the second season start with them?
Will had that tentacle thing at the end of season one, where is his medical attention???

Kicking off the liminal space before Christmas movie season with Nightmare Before Christmas. I just really love this movie, great message, great music, great pacing.
Kinda sucks they’ve wrung every last piece of merchandising outta this. Easy to forget the actual thing was just good

Kinda sad - my one normal family member, an aunt, is in town to visit her son and grandson.
Outside of a few texts, we will not being seeing each other during her time here. Someone has to care enough to make the connection, just kinda sad neither of us has the juice.

Omg this is so good! Sad, creepy, very human, and so real. Helps that it’s been mostly set in the Bay Area. I think they really captured how much space the wild fire smoke takes up, it’s almost a character onto itself.
Can’t wait to finish it!

Listening to How High We Go In The Dark and really enjoying it so far. Good Reads suggested a book with a bad review. In the review, the person mentioned it being nothing like How High We Go In The Dark.
Thanks, random reviewer, I don’t think this is how reviews are intended to work, I’ll take it

Train seating regular Amtrak is always so much more comfortable and easy breezy compared to flying. We need more cities with more service. And we need cheap fares you don’t need to book ages in advance.

Life has been hard, but today was good. EMDR worked - I can choose to be happy and excited about things in the face of anything.
