I’m having my first dark night of the soul in a while. I forgot how much they suck. Can I blame this on sugar withdrawal somehow, too?

A young adult neighbor with a Minecraft sword just ran up to me and asked me why I am such a weird shape right now. He said I have too many legs. Headed inside now to count how many legs I have, I hope I can count on your thoughts and prayers.

We can never know all the ways in which our lives touch others. For example, I bet this guy across Menaul who is parked with his brights on has no idea he is aggravating the shit out of me as I sit in a vehicle attempting to read while two parallel searchlights of protons bore into my skull.

@pennengineering.bsky.social engineers created the first microrobots! Comparable in size to a single-celled organism and powered by light, they are capable of sensing, decision-making, and swimming through liquids for less than the cost of a penny! 🧪

Does anyone take a break from processed sugar and live to tell about the other side of withdrawals?

The day before Christmas Eve is a holiday called Drink N Stroll where you walk around with friends and observe everyone buying last minute gifts. Sober Drink N Stroll is accepted, the holiday is built on anticapitalism.

One of my greatest comforts is that no matter how poorly someone else thinks of me, I’ve thought worse of myself and had to live with those thoughts at Max volume.

There’s little as unoriginal as making fun of a generation you don’t belong to.

Tell me why these Bert-and-Ernie-in-skirts cosplayers have me in a chokehold. I’ve watched this TikTok like 62 times in a row, closed it, gone back to it.

Wow what’s it like to think that you are better than everyone else while simultaneously believing you’re not good enough? Oh wait I actually do remember what that’s like and it sucks. Sorry you’re going through it.

Today I was called a “chaotic beam of brilliance” by someone I last saw more than 15 years ago and that seems like not an accurate description but I am now wondering how I can be more chaotic and brilliant. And beam-shaped.

We don’t earn medals for not asking for help.
Resting, pausing, and reaching for support keep us human, healthy, and ready for what matters.

Every day I take a medication that makes me feel sick about two hours after the fact. And every day I am like why do I feel so nauseated what in my life is causing this why Lord and then every day about 20 minutes after I start feeling sick I’m like wait a minute, there’s a reason and I know it!

Remember, kids: A real big goal of "AI" is to entirely sever capital from labor, and no, there will be no universal basic income, you can all just starve and die, thanks

AI is already taking jobs away from entry-level workers
Software and customer service are most at risk right now and could be the canary in the coal mine.

If there’s one thing I love it’s a house that has a tiny identical mini house in the front yard as a bird feeder.

I think you basically know my age by the fact that most of my phone calls with my mom start with me saying “so what did the doctor say?”

If you are a person that physically fights with your close friends, can you explain it to me? If my best friend decked me, that sounds like the story of how we stopped being friends.

Ten pages later: or maybe it’s about vampires?
I’m not even 100 pages into Bunny by Mona Awad but so far it seems to be about what we give up in this pursuit of community via conformity. So far, it says that what we give up and what we obtain are equally dark. Someone read it with me.

Sometimes it is very important to have a crushingly intense depression day out of nowhere even though since yesterday, a day that you were pretty fucking satisfied, your life has changed in zero material ways.
