iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

same as it ever was. people are capable of change, but i'm not really a person, so that doesn't apply to me. nothing's gonna change until my mind breaks, my body breaks, or the world around me breaks.

in a few minutes i'm gonna go to bed, and tomorrow i'll wake up and go to work and not think about any of this, or if i do so i'll feel a little bad before getting distracted by work and podcasts. as i always fucking do. day in day fucking out.

this year i finally tried to do something different by embracing being trans instead of shoving off into the corner of "maybe, but i'm not sure", and all it's brought me has more frustration and stress. they say that mental stress be a trigger for shingles to reactivate, so let's throw that in too.

i sometimes wish i had a more significant mental illness. that way i would've bottomed out and had some sort of intervention that actually fixed things, instead of just being broken but still functional enough to not set off alarm bells.

i don't have the poster's instinct. i don't have the reflex to post out my inane thoughts that's fundamentally important in order to use social media as a social interaction instead of just a content aggregator.

i'm not even in that bad of a mood right now. like i'm not feeling good but i've had worse moods before. i've been meaning to do a ramble like this for several days but kept not getting around to it or not feeling like it or getting distracted by other stuff.

my therapist has encouraged me to post more in order to start getting some actual interactions going as a small stepping stone towards being more social, and guess what i've failed to really do?

it's easier to just wash my hands of it and tell myself it was always impossible than to confront that fact that i failed by my own fault.

i both want to change and for nothing to ever change. i don't want to be perceived but i still want attention. i want to be loved but have built a core aspect of internal identity on the concept that i'm unlovable.

i've got no one to blame but myself for never learning the social skills i needed to grow or for never taking the jumps that i needed to. i've avoided the the discomfort that allows for growth in favor of the comfort of a stagnant set of routines.

i've been sleepwalking through life for the last 5 or 6 years and anytime i try to wake up i fail and just go back to sleep. i blink and boom it's been another month or three.

feel bad about myself -> do nothing -> get over it -> feel bad about myself -> do nothing -> get over it -> feel bad about myself -> do nothing -> get over it -> feel bad about myself -> do nothing -> get over it -> feel bad about myself -> do nothing -> get over it -> feel bad about myself -> do no

i hate that burnout has taken from me the ability to really crash out into sadness-depression, leaving me only with stagnation-depression. i can't even make myself cry anymore by telling myself how dumb i was for ever thinking i could ever be truly happy-- maybe a tear at best.

Spooky bird stories. My Halloween comic from 2024.

A comic titled Spooky Bird Stories. In panel 1, a turkey vulture is telling stories to other vultures, and it says, "She walked toward the source of the terrible smell. She got closer and closer, and then, to her horror, she saw... No dead body." A black vulture says "No!" and a turkey vulture says "Did someone already eat it??" In panel 2, a northern cardinal is telling a story to some songbirds. It says "They peered through the windows of the house at the gory scene. Zombies had smashed through the door in the night. The homeowner was dead. But worst of all... He hadn't refilled the feeders." An eastern bluebird says "Aaah!" and an American goldfinch says "It can't be!". In panel 3, A screech owl is telling a story to other owls. It says "And then the ghost fluffed itself up really big to appear scarier." A saw-whet owl gasps, and a long-eared owl says "Horrifying!". In panel 4, a downy woodpecker is telling a story to other woodpeckers, and says "The eerie sound rang through the dark woods. Tap-tap. Tap-tap. It was the distinctive two-part knock of the Ivory-billed Woodpecker. The species had returned from the dead... FOR REVENGE." A red-cockaded woodpecker says "Yesss".
