"Momentum is stalling. How do you get noticed?" If you're only posting your work and expecting people to notice you, you are only doing 20% of the work 80% is asking about someone else's day. Sharing their work. Telling them happy birthday. Dont get metrics corpo brainrot.

Starting a new manuscript today I fear. The idea is just pressing right up against my cerebellum and if I don’t at least jot down the thoughts I might go into shock. All my unfinished drafts are howling but it has to be this way!!! 🤷🏾‍♀️

Y'all realize that disability rights are also human rights, right? Like, y'all getting uppity about people wanting mask mandates and shit to be able to go out are actually doing a fascism. The people asking for a modicum of compassion aren't the problem.
