You might know me? You might not? Getting a wonderful boyfriend apparently meant I got hit by a bunch of "look how traumatized you are" bricks.

Anyway, I'm on Substack, for now, to share my thoughts as I unveil the cemetery of my mind.

Guys, it's been over a month: revealing what happened
July. Dating someone new. Acknowledging my truth. Remaining devastatingly unemployed as a recent university graduate. Maybe grab some tissues or popcorn... By this point, who knows anymore?

To the boy I dragged almost a week ago: I’m sorry. Literally, I don’t know what to do or how to react when someone treats me with basic kindness and respect.

An instant rewind from the girl who felt too much, too fast, and wrote about it anyway.

"Simulator games are a gateway drug," by Signnus on Substack <3

"A moment that made me realize I needed to step away from the screen was how I constantly thought about when I could start playing again. It was the only thing on my mind while I was eating, working, driving and even trying to sleep."
Simulator games are a gateway drug
Alcohol, marijuana and even sweets can be addictions, but simulator games can be just as enticing

If you’ve ever felt guilty for “doing nothing,” this one’s for you!

This is about nothing
An article about nothing. Which means, of course, it’s about everything.

New The Vault [REDACTED] Content:

He told me I was perfect, then ghosted me less than 48 hours later. So yes, I wrote about it. Story is live for paid subs. <3

it’s petty, personal, and a little cathartic.

It’s 90° and I’m on Lexapro. I’m sweaty, spiraling, and semi-informed about climate policy. If you hate summer too, or just wanna hear me over share about meds, endo, and night sweats:

this post is for you.

It’s 90° & I’m on meds that make me sweat
So if I’m rude, blame the weather (and maybe the meds). And no, I will not be going outside.

“Everything means everything and yet nothing. What am I supposed to do with my life? How do I even feel? How does how I feel change who I am?

Perhaps that’s just what it means to be a person — or a girl. Or mentally ill.”

LA is everything right now. If they have to stand down in LA he probably won't try to pull this shit again. I hope people are careful and safe as possible. ❤️

Yes, she’s almost two days late… but listen. When you’re chronically ill and ADHD-brained, time works differently.

Everything takes a little longer, but my heart is always in it! Thank you for waiting. Take a peek <33

Do you ever get obsessed with one super specific thing?

Like, niche interest to hyperfixation pipeline? Same. At five years old all I kept thinking of was one big boat — The Titanic.

In part one, I talk about the people, the drama, the tragedy, the hubris, the what ifs, and more 📖🚢✨
I’m begging you to care about this giant boat (Pt. I)
The Titanic was my first hyperfixation, and we, me + you, are going to talk about it right now.
