Transphobia, self harm mention 

Do I seek out and report transphobic comments as hate speech bc I care that much? Or am I just looking for an excuse to do a version of self harm?

Food security, eating disorder, exercise 

It's really frustrating because it seems like I will never "get healthy" this way. Not to the level I'd like to be at, anyway.

One of the reasons I'm so excited to move is that it'll be much cheaper. I'll be able to afford food again!

Food security, eating disorder, exercise 

I can't afford enough food to exercise consistently.

My recovery from even a minor workout can take a week because of my malnourished diet. Even when I'm managing my eating disorder, I just can't afford all the food I need.

The irony (?) is that exercise helps me stoke an appetite I otherwise don't have. So, I exercise as much as safely can, and ration the food I do have, and am often just hungry. Idk. Seems more important to keep the ed under control.

Thank you to everyone who send me positive vibes this last week! I'm half way through this anticipated time of turmoil, but it's almost over. Things will be SO GOOD in a week once I'm all moved in.

People evolve and change over time.

You can't say that you will have the same aptitudes in 20 years that you had in high school.

I reserve the right to allow my career and profession to evolve and change over time as well!
Damn this bullshit of being stuck in the same job for your entire life!

The next few weeks are going to be some of my busiest and most emotionally taxing weeks of my life so far.

Please send all the good vibes. Cast a spell, pray, I'll take it all.

I've gotten some sun recently and now the foundation I bought last summer matches again.

Life is good.

Hair style stuff 

I got My hair cut colored for the first time yesterday. I used Admirial Holdo from The Last Jedi as the color reference, and I love it!

I was a little worried about maintaining the color for as long as possible, but apparently I already do all the things? No shampoo, cold showers was already how I showered.

It's like I was always meant to have vivid colored hair! ๐Ÿ˜

Do you ever fall asleep listening to a podcast, but then later redownload it bc you actually want to listen to it, and the whole thing sounds vaguely familiar?

Smash bros 

Anyone else watching Smash Summit rn? This bracket stage has been INSANE.

Finally have my laptop up and running again after a really silly partition disaster. It wasn't a difficult fix, but itnwaa frustrating to work on because...

A) going in, I didn't know how Linux organizes disk space.

B) I caused the problem myself.

CW thoughts, here I go 

My TL has become significantly cluttered with non-CW'd content that really could use it. I rarely ever *need* a content warning to protect myself, but damn that was one of my favorite parts when I joined up a year ago.

There's something really nice about a curated, self-aware TL. CWs as a general habit require you (or me at least) to stop for a moment and consider what you're putting out for others to read, and that has no downsides imo. That's just good human praxis.

I saw one of my favorite bands tonight live at a house show and I got to sing along and mosh and I could die right now and be happy.

so uh yeah things are hard. Sometimes things are very good. hold paws

Today is already good because I'm actually catching my biweekly writers group meeting live, rather than a recording a day later.
