"Sit down by the fire young ones. Let me tell you a story about how back in the old times, everybody had a cigarette lighter, and when we enjoyed what the DJ was playing we raised them in the air and made circular shapes to get what we called a "rewind". And the DJ would be happy, and they would spin the record backwards, and reset the needle back to the beginning of the track. Because that was the fashion at the time." #oldSchool #raving #jungle #dnb

Trans people are not the only ones who dissociate—but we tend to be good at it. We’re a kind of people who need to not be in body or world. The body feels wrong. The world treats us as wrong. Dissociation can be debilitating. And also sometimes not. I used to write a lot, in dissociated states. Then I transitioned, and couldn’t write at all. And yet still needed to dissociate. I felt better about being embodied, but the world didn’t. So—raves. And out of raves, the writing came back, slowly.
I want to recover at least some kinds of dissociation from the language of psychiatrists. I want to find ways this disability can also be enabling. A way to find out things about the world. So now I have two dissociated practices that I need to live: raving and writing. Raving got the writing going again. It’s a challenge to bring them together. It’s taking patience, and practice.

Het gebeurt niet vaak, maar mijn vrouw en ik gaan vanavond helemaal los in #Tillburg, op een #afrobeat-evenement.

Kent iemand een afterparty om de beats levend te houden totdat de treinen weer rijden?

@sellathechemist Well, no side effects from this one at all I think! I did go pre-emptively early to bed on the night, to ward off whatevs, but not even #raving the following night was impacted.

One cup a day keeps the doctors and all the bad vibes away! 🌞

The Rave Is History:  You tell me your best memories from raving. Could be this year or 30 years ago. I want to hear about connection on the dancefloor. Have you met people that became friends for life? Did something happen at The End that still lives rent free in your head all these years later? Did you have a memorable wardrobe malfunction? Did you accidentally propose to someone under the influence?  Let me know!  Your memories are incredible and they show how dance floor friends can become friends for life.

The dementia patient is dissembling freely again:

Trillions? The actual figure for the whole of this administration is around 100 billion - and that's including tariffs, customs / duty, and excise taxes that existed pre-tantrum.

He's mad judges have correctly ruled that his (limited) authority to levy tariffs in an emergency doesn't just let him do anything and everything he wants, forever.

Someone please take the phone away from grandpa. He needs to sleep.
