life feels like needing a list somewhere of “Types of Media That Make Me Feel Alive,” so that when I feel like creating something I can remember the tropes and styles that I want to see more of in the world.

Otherwise I end up sitting here like “I want to create but WHAT??,” until I encounter one of those tropes/styles again and it’s like “ooh right”

That sense of object impermanence extends even to stuff I enjoy, apparently.

My husband is watching in the other room, and as soon as I heard the theme music my brain perked up like OOH BOY because I enjoy that show a totally normal amount

I broke a mandolin string for the first time tonight.

Yeah, you could say I’m pretty hardcore 🤘🏻

“But Ronen, that’s an incredibly common experience”

Common, sure, but not universal. There are absolutely people who thrive under the attention of others. If I were one of them, I think my efforts in music and performance could have gotten a lot farther before now.

One of the great contradictions of my life is that I crave attention but feel intense anxiety when I have it.

@mym a monastery of himbos would be amazing, but no, he’s just a monk who happens to be a low int strong boy

Weekends should be three days:

Day 1: Be lazy af. Recoup from the work week. Binge watch TV. Play video games.

Day 2: Go outside. Be active. Climb a mountain. Have beers with friends on a boat.

Day 3: Chores. Put on some good podcasts, do your laundry. Get groceries. Prepare.

@mym Hell yeah!
I’m playing a tabaxi monk whose gender according to his character sheet is “himbo.”

Over many years, I have been gradually replacing all of the paragraphs in the Ship of Theseus Wikipedia article.

“The rules of bodily decorum usually imply that the cosmos depends on the shame we feel about our bodies. But sometimes that lesson is a lie, and a cunningly self-protecting one at that, for to question it requires self-exposure and loss of face, and who would want that? Well, trickster would, as would all those who find they cannot fashion a place for themselves in the world until they have spoken against collective silence.” - Lewis Hide, Trickster Makes This World

Me: /crossing a street
Stranger leaning out his car window: I love your coat!! It looks so cool in the light!!!

These are the kinds of stranger-compliments I live for.

its awesome to watch the consent machine try like 900 different ways to make this argument on behalf of commercial real estate

Today's my Birthday, the only day I am legally allowed to ask for some extra love in sharing my art around.

Plus it would make me happy, the last few months with the overseas move was pretty draining.

Give a man a fish. Give the fish a squirrel. Give that squirrel a cool hat. Now everyone's happy
