If there’s one thing I’ve learned with recent events, it’s that the only way to truly bring about change is to hurt America’s wallet. I fully encourage the rest of the world to sanction the US into the ground for this massive breach of international law.

I’ve managed to write over 1000 words per day the whole year so far. I’m committing real hard to finishing at least one major project this year.

2026 is the year I give up performance enchanting drugs (gender) and take a break from worrying about keeping up with my peers. (also gender) Time to just be myself without shackling myself to expectations (Of gender.) They/Them all the way now.

I swear, the amount of people who don’t know how important photobashing and blending are to concept art and just instantly claim it’s AI instead of researching common practices in commercial graphic design. Anyone who acts like that doesn’t care about the artists and just wants to be mad.

I just witnessed an incredibly upbeat ad on Spotify for a museum’s HANDMAID’S TALE exhibit. If there’s ever a story to have upbeat and cheery music and voiceover for, it is not that one.

The greatest advice I’ve ever been given was that if nobody cares, or if nobody understands, strive to be nobody.

I do not understand my cat. I can cook steak, chicken or fish and she doesn’t particularly care, but the moment the cereal comes out she MUST HAVE the grain circles.

It’s honestly baffling to me rich people are so incredibly desperate to be loved by the public, and they won’t do the one thing that would actually buy that adoration. Pay off the debts of as many people as possible.

Near and dear to my heart, the feeling of wandering around as a child in awe of the world.
“One Morning in Maine” by Robert McCloskey

I’m convinced that if anyone on the left wants to get through to the right-wing base, you have to give them what they want and respect. Put the energy of a WWE promotion into speeches, make it a spectacle, make people look in awe. It’s never been policy, it’s presentation.

I find it hilarious that the man with a sunny-D spray tan in the White House has claimed now that the Great Depression would have been averted with tariffs. It’s almost as if the Smoot-Hawley tariff act wasn’t the nail in the coffin that made that depression so great.

I remember growing up and being somewhat anxious of the feeling of pressure in my head I’d get when hearing music that made me emotional. It took me way too long to figure out that’s the literal ASMR sensation.

I feel like humanity lost something important when we settled down and built cities in which generation after generation live. The feeling of walking in a direction and only stopping when too tired to move, and then continuing onward until hill and tree vanish over the horizon. I yearn for it.

“The works of the roots of the vines, of the trees, must be destroyed to keep up the price, and this is the saddest, bitterest thing of all.” - John Steinbeck. I didn’t understand just what level of selfishness could lead to this when I read The Grapes of Wrath as a teen. I’m sure we all do now.

If anyone sincerely believes that just trying to end the status quo of the US government is better than doing so while *also* voting for the lesser of two evils, they really need a reality check. Moral superiority can’t be attained without minimizing suffering through all avenues.

A general rule of thumb that people need to remember when discussing difficult topics. If your conversational partner is stating their viewpoints clearly and concisely and you’re refusing to elaborate to your own reasonings, you’re not “winning,” you’re not a “master debater,” you’re just dumb.

It’s disheartening realizing how the US’s reputation will likely take an entire generation to recover even if we manage to fix the systemic problems in our government. Especially when about a quarter of the population is responsible for all this mess.

I never would have thought when I was younger that Doctor Strangelove would feel more like a documentary of current politics than a work of fiction.

Since the US president wants to get rid of everything Biden has legislated, why not start with the Patriot Act? Surely that’s the right thing to do.

In times like these where we’ve seen a rise of bigotry in the US, I believe it’s time to reclaim Christian iconography and patriotism from them. The Battle Hymn of the Republic should still make the treasonous and hateful bigots run and hide.

I’m tearing up right now. I’ve had “Aspiring poet” listed on most of my accounts for years now and a writer I know and look up to told me to remove the word aspiring from it. It’s a piercing shot straight through the imposter syndrome.

Ended up making Dutch styled chewy ginger cookies and was pleased with how they turned out. Slightly crispy, but not bad for how rarely I bake.

I have reached the point now where I see the generational pattern of blaming the youth being used towards Gen Z. Is it ever possible for people to acknowledge their own failings and the world they created instead of the next generation that has to live with the system they made?

I’m beginning to believe that people need a media literacy course in when to identify that a sympathetic villain has committed atrocities that can’t be forgiven by knowing *why* they committed them.

Who taught the far right the word “intelligentsia?” Because I’m seeing it used increasingly by them nowadays to try and drive a wedge between anyone with an interest in collegiate education and the working class.
