Not going to lie, it's getting harder and harder to think of things to write in my gratitude journal beyond family, friends, and nerdfighters.

Wondering how much my lack of reading lately is just my brain not working and how much is because I'm trying to work my way through all the Fredrick Forsyth books I have and they're...ok.

In just 48 hours, decades of global health progress have been ignored and put at risk. The U.S. terminated 90% of USAID foreign aid contracts—including lifesaving services once considered safe from the freeze. Let’s talk about why this matters and how we can fight back: youtube.com/shorts/U0mLg...

Managed small amount of work amid doomscrolling. Will try a run a bit later. Seeing family tomorrow. Just got to keep my head up and keep on moving forward I guess.

Hearing from Community Partners International, which works from Myanmar to Bangladesh, that USAID cuts mean 14,000 people with HIV losing access to lifesaving meds and a total stop in all HIV and TB screening. So many people will die due to these chaotic, sudden, horrifically implemented cuts.

If I could focus on what I'm supposed to be doing instead of the internet, if I could stop comparing myself to others and wishing I looked/acted/was as good as them, if I could just find the secret to true happiness

Another evening dancing and being around people is ok actually. At least if there's good music playing.

We've agreed to cross-taper onto vortioxetine, a new and exciting drug for me, hopefully without the "eat everything and sleep all the time" side-effects. I will have to drop to a lower dose of mirtazapine for a week before starting vortioxetine which may not be fun, but we'll see how it goes.

Oh no, not interacting with other human beings, can I just hide in bed and listen to podcasts instead?

Tomorrow I will be mostly running errands and trying not to cry on what would have been my wife's 46th birthday. Then in the evening I need to pretend to be a normal person when I meet my son's girlfriend's mother — this may actually be the bigger challenge.

Discworld QOTD, from I Shall Wear Midnight “She heard him mutter, 'Can you take away this grief?' 'I'm sorry,' she replied. 'Everyone asks me. And I would not do so even if I knew how. It belongs to you. Only time and tears take away grief; that is what they are for.’”

Brain failed to concentrate on work again and I guess it's nearly the weekend now? Maybe next week everything will just click into place and I'll get shit done.

A lot of you are very fixated on doing the DiCaprio meme at the Nazi salutes, all "EVIDENCE! EVIDENCE THAT THEY REALLY ARE NAZIS!" when the evidence is pretty clear in: everything they've said and done for a decade.

I kind of want to comment on the whole comedy/social prescribing story going around but one of the things that sets off my depression spirals is thinking too much about how I have depression so I'm just going to go over here and do puzzles for a bit.

Look, healthcare provider: you can message me as many times as you like about my eligibility for an NHS Health Check but as the only location is fifty minutes with a change of bus from where I live, I'm just not going to go. Especially not to just be told I need to eat better and lose weight.

So it turns out the way to get lots of people to ask you to dance is to not go for two months.

Ok, I have tomorrow off work to try and return to normal, and get to go dancing on Tuesday (and hopefully more regularly now I've found a new lift). After that I should probably arrange things for next weekend and get my parents an anniversary present for weekend after that.

P4A slowly cheering me up again, but this feels so like end/post-larp blues I am scared for this coming week.

Just woke up sad. Maybe too much junk food and not enough sleep isn't sustainable for a whole weekend. Or maybe it's the depression, and not everything about my mood is within my control.

London Types I'm looking for recommendations for things to do on a Monday evening. I'm likely there for an overnighter in March and want to find something that won't break the bank, but is more entertaining than the walls of a hotel room.

Well I just blew past my P4A budget (I can afford it though, dw) so I'm going to need someone to take my PayPal account away from me.
