I finished reading 2 books in the last 2 weeks, which is more than I’ve read in the past 6 months. I hate that I’ve had no motivation to read. It’s not that the books are bad, it’s just general malaise that keeps me from enjoying anything. Hopefully this marks a turning point for me.

In other news, I discovered that brain feels better when body is treated better, maybe perchance because brain is part of body. Further research needed.

When I want to give up on writing, I tell myself, no one is making you do this. It’s not your job. You can quit. And then I get all stubborn and start writing again. Because no one tells me what to do. Not even me. Fuck me, I won’t do what I tell me.

I keep wondering why I’m depressed and I can’t sleep and then I see that I’m considered a threat to the American way of life because I have ADHD. Bitch about to be a threat.

Dear artists: Afraid of death? It’s coming anyway. Afraid of failure? We all fail. A lot. Sometimes spectacularly. Afraid of these fascists? There are more of us cheering you on. Don’t stop creating. Not now. Make art. Piss them off. Create. With anger. With hope. Keep going.

In college I got told to cite my sources after writing something like “the US was mired in WWII like a stegosaurus in a tar pit.” My professor thought it was plagiarism. Forgive me for injecting some whimsy into my paper.

I’m seeing a lot of people frame the threat to the 504 only in terms of affecting education and kids with IEPs. It affects EVERYONE. From curb cuts to access to government buildings to sign language interpreters in disasters to accessible medical facilities, it is a civil rights threat to ALL.

I just sent a message to the Indiana attorney general asking him to back out of the lawsuit. If your state is one of the 17 suing to get rid of protections for people with disabilities, this site has contact info for your attorney general. It also tells what states are suing and why this is bad.

Tonight, my brain conjured up for me a dream involving unnatural acts between a man and a chicken named Luke Death, who was the personification of death. And am I brave enough to set down that tale? And would any publisher ever buy it?

A journaling video came up on YouTube for me and it was like “document your life!” And I was like “why would I want to do that?” And that’s not the reaction I want to have to my life. I want to have fun, but it’s hard when you’re depressed and broke.
