Also, the last time I looked, Ren was my boy busking in Brighton.
Now he is deservedly a fucking a list star, making tracks with Eminem.
Ren is a better rapper than Eminem.
He almost turned me.

I'm really not liking being alive right now. Expecting a cancellation.

I just realised, watching a YouTube video about Ren, that I am no longer offered talking therapy because I am flagged as problematic.
First, sorry, but what the absolute fuck?

So I bought a certain advent calendar that will provide tiny bottles of ink for my fountain pens.
Stupidly expensive but fills me with joy.

It is not unrelated to my return to this platform that I have decided to disengage with all medical services (specifically mental health but they are not separated here).

It is almost impossible to convey how I don't go outside because of the fear that I might kill someone but I can't trust myself to not kill myself because of the guilt

My daughter got a short pixie crop haircut, very Betty Boop, and I told her that she is full lesbianist now, she agreed and I couldn't be prouder. She's 23, there aren't safeguarding issues lol

I know that nobody asked, but Billie Eilish is very talented, has an awkward relationship with her brother, and clearly listened to the Sundays at least once

Why is it never ladies posting thirst traps? I fully respect a gentleman's need to entice a prospective partner, but I like lady bits.

Am I a monster for indoctrinating my daughter into the understanding that Solid Air is the greatest human creation of all time? (She titled her first music college piece Solid Air v.2 and I cannot express how proud I am).

I have yet to identify exactly what form of mental I am, but I played 300 hours of Starfield and now can't touch my computer.
I really like Starfield but it is shit. Self loathing is a costume we wear in London. No idea what that means but it felt very 18th century and silk jacket

Watching a YouTube video I am reminded of the utter joy I felt when I got a floppy drive for my BBC master. It was built like a tank and delivered all of it's kilobytes like a champ. Yes I was a spoiled autistic boy
