SSRIs, NDRIs, rain relievers and antihistamines, I'm really gonna need you to help me put these intrusive thoughts aside. I've been dealing with suicidal ideation for nearly 30 years and I could use a fucking break. I think I got some ramen. That might help.

Been working every day for months. Finally gave myself a break with our trip to Colorado. I’ve been so consumed with work that I didn’t know what to do with myself the entire time. Felt like I was letting everyone down while trying to recharge.

No amount of art I ever do will capture the grace, the perfection, the legacy that is and was and will be Dolly Parton. I’m heartbroken she is gone, and angry that death took her before some people who deserve it more. However, I’m happy she is no longer in pain. She was a lover of the arts. 💔

Well, REDBUBBLE's AI has deemed my drawing of a Green Chile wearing cowboy boots inappropriate, removed the art and suspended my account. But an image of Barack Obama in a noose is A-OK. Tech really does loathe the poor.

Laptop fixed. Clothes washer fixed. Swamp cooler fixed. Adulting feels good when you accomplish some shit like this. Now I just gotta finish some work so I can get a new dishwasher. That thing I CANNOT fix (yet).

If dementia doesn't get me before a heart attack does, Parkinsons's is likely if cancer doesn't beat them to it. I could always jump to my death so none of them wins, but I don't want to leave a mess for anyone to clean up. Does KALSHI take bets on things like this?

I already dropped your name to Chag Lowry and Kathryn Walkiewicz. Because if they're going to push native creators and storytellers, they need to pull from the artist community and not just the folks who are already intertwined in their club.
