It stays calm because it’s designed not to attract people who want to cause trouble.
Starting around March, we’ll slowly add more categories for worries and hobbies.

You don’t owe anyone optimism. Showing up honestly while living with sarcoidosis is enough. Surviving is not a small thing.
Still here. Still trying.

I carry many traumas, religious conditioning, family abuse, and the weight of workplace injustice. For years, I feared my own queerness, trapped by a world that told me who to be.

It took a near fatal illness to break that shell. Facing death did not just change my health, it shifted my soul. It moved me from a world of self-concern to one of deep empathy. I went back to school, unlearned old patterns, and found my voice.

I have known the cruelty of a "wallet biopsy" and the sting of being judged by doctors who didn’t see my humanity. I have stood in line for expired food and felt the bone deep cold of poverty. I know that poverty is a trauma that kills, I have lived it.

But today, I am no longer afraid. I will shout in the face of the oppressors. I will continue to speak truth to power.

It’s New Year’s Eve.
Your body does not know this.

Pace yourself. Take your meds. Go to bed early.

The ball drops whether you’re awake or not.

Romantic picnic = eating Thai food in the car
in a foggy, cold, windy park
with my wife.
Weather said no. We said still counts.

Fell asleep on the couch
with a cat on my chest
like a medically fragile piece of furniture.
Honestly thriving.

Went in for one blood test.
Left with three.
A1C, Vitamin D, Vitamin B.
Nothing says chronic illness like “since you’re already here.”

Sarcoidosis is rare. Unless you have it. Then it’s extremely well-represented in your daily schedule. #sarcoidosis #chronicillness #livedexperience
Nothing builds character like an immune system that improvises. Sarcoidosis really said “surprise me.” #sarcoidosis #autoimmunelife #darkhumor #livedexperience
I posted the same chronic-illness content on Threads and X that I post here. Both platforms removed my accounts for rule violations. It’s interesting which kinds of content are considered a problem—and which aren’t.
