The things I do for content..

Today, that was getting sunsick. Emerson and I went to a bookshop downtown after our original plans fell through, and I got…kind of irradiated making a video while I was waiting for him to finish up inside.

I have to be awake at 10 AM tomorrow for writer’s group and I did not nap today like a fool.

Pray for me, if you’re into that. If you’re not, send me good energy, I guess.

I need to shut my eyes now. I am so, so tired..

Since I am a tired dumbass and it doesn’t seem to be my day with the braincell,

here is a second post to tell y’all that you should subscribe to Open Sorcery if you enjoy what we have to say since I didn’t add it in the last post and I STILL can’t figure out how to edit the site so that it’ll let me edit posts directly from WordPress after I’ve posted them without completely breaking everything again.

So, if you’ve been creeping for awhile and you enjoy this website, please subscribe. Huzzah!

We’ve also been thoroughly WebFingered, so if the Fediverse is more your speed, follow us wherever the hell makes your little heart palpitate. 💛

Now, I’m going to hopefully stop procrastinating and haul my extremely fatigued body into the fucking wet box now that it’s almost 2 AM. It’s shower time.

Goodnight, all.

It is drugs day, the day where my immune system is at its strongest and most aggressive, and I went to a museum yesterday.

I feel like GARBAGE. My throat hurts, my back hurts, I'm fairly certain someone has filled my blanket with lead weights, my eyes are drier than the Sahara.

I've been awake for maybe ten minutes. I have to get up to do my injection to make everything better, but that's two rooms away, which is unfathomably far.

While technically not mutually exclusive, i feel like some people identify much more with the label "disabled", and others with "chronically ill" What about you, fellow #LongCovid gang? If you have to pick one, are you disabled or chronically ill, or something else? #NEISVoid

Another rant.
We talked about how stress also causes gut issues, about breathing exercises and vagus nerve stuff. It totally bothers me that people don't seem to understand that my stress levels aren't going to improve any time soon. If I just mention that I'm ill and that it's depressing she just circles back to "you should do breathing exercises". Yes ma'am I've been doing those for about 5 years. Yes daily. Several times per day actually. So she goes "okay you're working on it, it's improving?"

No. "Working on it" and "improving" are two completely different things.

For someone who works with chronically ill people I expect you to know that.

Previously safe foods are, tinight, being proven otherwise.

Exhausted, feel like trash.

Can anxietyy/stress/etc make MCAS reactions worse?
