It's impossible!!! Everything I write feels trivial and ridiculous and also there's a hostile takeover of the government happening in the background. ThisIsFineDog dot gif
I mean, just, fucking yes. To all of this. It’s impossible right now which is why I’m awake. I was getting my TAXES TOGETHER TODAY. Because I’m writing a check to BigBalls in a few weeks I guess because that is what we’re doing in this country. Nothing makes sense, Kari.
I feel you on the ADHD brain trying to compute "all this" in addition to our normal, everyday fun park brains. I broke down and had to shut completely down yesterday. I'm so behind with work. My brain won't function. It's on overload. 😭
Same. I’m lucky to work mostly from home, in the sense that I can step away and rest when needed. Yesterday I was having chest pains from anxiety - rare for me despite my anxiety disorder(s) - and I knew I needed to lay the fuck down and rest despite that my coworkers were asking me if projects were finished yet, etc, because if I pushed myself to the point where even my heart was saying “wtf”, *I* would be finished. I hadn’t even really looked at the news all day. It was just that it all finally caught up to me, and well, the “Body Keeps The Score”.
It sucks, doesn't it? I want my quiet and peaceful life back! Incidentally I'm fortunate to work from home too. Glad you took the time you needed. I keep wondering how many years these asshats are taking off my life as the cortisol surges every day.
Also, this isn't sustainable - not even for Big Balls and Leon his other minions. Maga is overplaying its hand badly. Reps are getting roasted in town halls even in the deepest-red districts of Dumbfuckistan. The Jeezus Gunz 'n' Babiez voters did not expect to wake up on Jan. 21 to see a mentally ill drug-addicted foreign plutocrat firing their friends and neighbors and taking a blowtorch to their benefits. I don't think it'll take long to hit critical mass.
Vacillating between uuuugggh and rage on the regular, so I get it. I look forward to the playlist. Have been reading Ramona Grigg (I see you subscribe to her as well), it's good to see someone who's 87 who is still actively saying NOPE. This club sucks but it has some fine members.
ps I just subtitled a post "I went adulting by phone and all I got was this lousy existential quandary" but I'm going to change it before I put it up. Don't want it to look like I copied off your paper. But great minds and stuff.
"I used to act like I would literally starve if I did not eat every single fry on my plate"
Remember when our parents used starving kids and clean plate clubs to insist we needed to eat even when full?
Tis the Plight of the Millennial. Did not help my burgeoning eating disorder one bit!
"Writing is like doing the backstroke in crude oil at the moment." Oh, wow. I feel SEEN.

That chump couldn't get into a bar in Murray Hill or anywhere else.
And yeah, my task paralysis and procrastination are deep in the red right now.

This is what I want on a t-shirt: I did not survive my adolescence, 9/11, and COVID to be killed by idiots.

I really hope you are right.
I'm mainly sad, just so disappointed in my fellow Americans. There doesn't seem to be any hope at the moment.
Hi Nancy! Yes, sad and disappointed...but also I am really angry.

HAHAHAH you can totally have that as your subtitle idc. We all live in hell. And yes I love Ramona.
At least Below Deck Down Under is back and the participants look like they were born to tussle.
and Captain is HAWT
Yeah he’s not hard on the eyes. And seems surprisingly well adjusted.
