My brain is making me "listen" to a big band song that I love. Too bad I know nothing of music and will likely never "hear" this song again (my brain rarely recycles music hallucinations).

Today's #BrilliantMinds is close to me. I knew hidden and invisible cameras were constantly recording me for a show like the Phil Donahue Show since I was 6. You get used to it...

Just finished @michaellivingston.com's #Seaborn book! During my last schizoaffective episode, I lost the joy of reading. I usually rely on YA to get me back into reading after episodes, but this is perfect too! It's paced well to get you motivated to read, and it's an easy read to build confidence.

Dreamt I went to a library con and they gave away tote bags full of fake magazines. One was about Fallout; we had 3 of those. I took one, a co-conner took one, and we decided to give the 3rd to a Uni library. I should have given it to @kangus.bsky.social! I'm so sorry!

We found white nodules on Mierin's lung and have been waiting on a consult. They think it's just mineralization due to bronchitis. The treatment is the same as the last month - steroids. So relieved! #PetsOfTime

#TheWheelOfTime, we know we are Not the statistically chillest fandom, but I have found out which fandom is the chillest - #spnokc was the chillest fandom I've met. It was a 1st SPN Con for many if not most of us, and we were shy. But so nice to each other! I had not 1 bad interaction!

Gotta love a pharmacy that auto-refills the meds I attempted on twice (and always ask to be taken off), but not the Prozac that literally keeps me alive!

Everyone's favorite troublemaker has come all the way from Ghealdan just to stir things up in your timelines. Or not. Who knows? 🤭 My drawing of Nicola Treehill from The Wheel of Time books 😇 #WoTSkies #WheelOfTime #TheWheelOfTime #WoT #Art #Artist #Drawing #WoTFanart #Fanart #BookSkies
Digital drawing of Nicola Treehill from the Wheel of Time books as my headcanon, in a rather simple style, with somehow flat colors and outlines, but pretty realistic. She has pale skin, very rosy cheeks and freckles all over her nose and forehead. Her dark brown hair is curly at the top and wavy near the bottom. It falls in short bangs around her forehead.

She has a mischievous expression on her face, very typical of Nicola. Her eyes are a dark shade of brown and she's slightly lifting an eyebrow and showing a little smirk.

She's wearing layered clothes, the first layer being a high neck white shirt split in the middle, showing through the second layer, a royal blue crossed shirt embroidered in gold, and a last layer consisting of a decorative beige vest. On her right ear, she's wearing a big hoop earring, and on her left, a smaller and wider one with a thin chain hanging from it, that attaches to another piercing on the top of her ear.

On the background there's a circular heraldry, with the red colors of Ghealdan, the place Nicola is from, and groups of three six pointed, white stars as a repeating pattern all over it.

It's signed May Trakand 2023, with a stamp of an overlapped M, A and Y.

Dreamt they discovered delusions were caused by parasites in the brain. I freaked out about bugs in my brain, then tried to get them removed but there were no clinical trials yet so I was out of luck.

CN Ableism Fascists do fascist things because they are fascists. Not because they're autistic, mentally ill, have personality disorders or whatever. Neurodivergent people and those with mental illnesses are targets of fascism. They need our support and allyship, not more hate and stigma. 💔

New bill has been filed to disband the Arkansas State Library, basically "punishing" them for book content. Arkansas friends, join with organizations pushing back. State Libraries are archives, training institutions, and knowledge bank of the state's history. #bookban www.kark.com/news/state-n...

Arkansas legislature bill filed on Monday to abolish AETN, state library board
Arkansas would no longer have an Arkansas Educational Television Network (AETN) Commission and state library board If legislation filed Monday becomes law.

When I went back on Prozac (the only AD to work for me), my sex drive died. I mentioned this to my therapist, and she wanted to take it more seriously than me. I told her, "I can't have sex if I'm dead."

Just realized I don't think I've ever spoken to my sister on the phone (as an adult?). I've seen her online when visiting mom. We text a bit. No animosity; she's great!. I just never think of it or what to say when I do think of it.
