Did I get high last night? Yes. Did I, for some poorly recalled reason, order exfoliating socks that promise to remove callouses and dead skin and returns your feet into super smooth baby feet? Also yes.
A Castle for Christmas is everything I thought it might be.
Internet evolution:
Usenet: find your people! there are a few dozen of them on rec.arts.funny!
Listservs: find your people! there are 100 of them on this obscure list devoted to Marxist cultural criticism!
Blogs: find your people! each time one of them visits your site, your counter will increment! look! it has reached four digits!
Social media: find your people! there are several million strangers who are calling you names!
Post-social media: find your people! there are several dozen of them!

"Let's get something straight. Growing old doesn't make people #conservative. In fact the more marginalized identity statuses a person has, the LESS conservative they grow over time.
The reason we equate "old" with "conservative" is that #marginalization kills people off younger.

Some of the most radical people you know are old.

It's just a lot of others died before they could get there, so there's a diminishing proportion. (2/5)

@possum You will always be your own worst critic. Its okay.

All of us who make things fuck up sometimes, and crumple up the paper. Every. Single. Artist.

I hope the sadness passes and the joy comes back sometime soon, I've got a feeling it will come for you sooner than you think. Good luck out there.

All I ever needed is here in my arms
Words are very unnecessary
They can only do harm

@SpiritualTechie I woke up 3 hours early with my mind racing, worrying about stuff in my life, and what I need to do today to cope with the stack of not good things in my orbit.

I don't have advice for how to make what you're experiencing any easier, other than to let you know that you're not alone in needing *something* to keep things running. I send some virtual spoons your way, in the hopes it helps a little.

Good luck out there today.

@twistylittlepassages well, crud. Here's to hoping the ride is uneventful. 

@raye Oh, that's delightful, just lovely.
