Anne Boyer's "What Resembles The Grave But Isn't" is tattooed across my soul. "This is not your grave, get out of this hole."

A witch showed us a hill of hair
a hunchback showed us a mountain of pots and pans,
a few still petalled with paint.
Then came a hare
who showed us a hill of shaving-brushes,
a wood of toothbrushes
whose old-fashioned yellow bristles were
worn down to the wood.
What is your fairy story?

I've been PACING I've been SAVING MY SPOONS I made a LIST I made a PLAN -
And it was working! I was going to have a little walk and catch pokemon and run errands and have a nice meal -
I SPRAINED MY FOOT THIS MORNING. I'M SO MAD.
Just when I have the chronic stuff balanced, HELLO ACUTE 🙃

Guys I think I might get (tiny, gentle at-home) yoga back 😭
Update, I am two weeks into a two month wean-on protocol, and it's mildly hopeful? I feel more present in my body and have like a scrap of extra enrgy?? Kind of terrifying, since I dont know if I'll get to keep it. I can't plan on improving because it'll break my goddamn heart if I don't. #NEISVoid
Trialling new meds today, and it's going to be a loooong process. Currently balanced on the knife edge between 'ugh I hope this doesn't make things worse' and 'fuck what if it helps tho' (both are reasonable outcomes to expect).

I have long posited that Daniel Craig's accent in Glass Onion is better than Knives Out because in Knives Out he is trying to do a real Southern accent and is bad at it but in Glass Onion he is just talking like Foghorn Leghorn, which is something a real gay Southern weirdo would do.

ever since I learned about three-cueing I've developed infinitely more patience for replies on social media. mfers literally do not know how to read. people are walking around conjuring random meanings into words they don't know, and they don't know a lot of words. it's crazy
