Another great #TMS update: I feel like I can stay up to date on the news and still maintain my good mood. I have brief moments of grief and sorrow but I don’t stay there. As always, #FreePalestine! 🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸

My 74 year old mother loves Hayley Williams. Every time “Parachute” comes on she turns it up 😂😍
For the record my mom hates Taylor Swift. Always has. She says it makes her want to k*ll herself 😂😂😂

Hayley Williams can easily take the place of Taylor Swift in my head. Her song “True Believer” while not a bop per se, is the kind of writing I love to listen to. If you haven’t checked out her latest solo project, I highly recommend it. It’s called “Ego Death at a Bachelorette Party” 🎶🎼🎶

This is the first time I’ve had to denounce someone I was actively a fan of. It’s definitely hard but once something clicks it gets easy. The real test will be when I get the urge for nostalgia. All I know is that I won’t be counting down the days for her new releases ever again.

Additionally… the songs were absolute crap. I gave the whole album 4 listens and not a single one made it to my big playlist. Honestly her billionaire status should have been my last straw and I’m sorry it took me so long to wake the fuck up. I deleted all of her songs from my library.

I have an announcement: I’m no longer calling myself a swiftie. I do not stand behind racist lyrics. Intentional or not… it shows either malice or severe ignorance. How did these songs go through so many people and still get released??? I do not want to be associated with that.

Here’s one I did that’s supposed to be a dragon (but became a mouse lol) and its head is sewn on crooked. That’s why I gotta make like 10 of these so I can feel confident in the assembly part of the process. #amigurumi

I’ve been diving back into crocheting and made 6 #amigurumi stuffed animals so far! This time around I’m going to practice the same patterns instead of always moving to the next project. Sewing on the pieces and embroidering facial features is the hardest part.

Week 5 of #TMS is halfway done. This week I’m a little low on the mood scale because of hormonal issues, but next week I expect to be back to my new happy self. I can’t believe it’s almost over!

marxnchill.bsky.social @marxnchill.bsky.social · 6d

I’m actually doing the thing! I’m working on a cute dragon #amigurumi

marxnchill.bsky.social @marxnchill.bsky.social · 7d

But anyways... I'm actually crocheting again! I haven't in well over a year, so I have to relearn, but I'm feeling motivated to make some cute stuffed animals! Thank you #TMS.

I’m honestly disappointed by Taylor’s new album. There’s a song about how big of a d*** Travis has 🤮🤮🤮

Week 4 of #TMS is done! 3 more to go! I am feeling so good mentally. I still have some sluggishness and fatigue but I have other health conditions that cause that. My mood however is as good as it’s ever been. Optimism and lightheartedness is my new default.

marxnchill.bsky.social @marxnchill.bsky.social · 9d

I’m on week 4 of #TMS! I’m in such a good mood every day. I still feel foggy and weighed down, but happy. I’m sure it has to do with my health issues at this point because how can I be in a good mood but still depressed?

marxnchill.bsky.social @marxnchill.bsky.social · 14d

Week #3 is officially done! 4 more weeks to go of #TMS

marxnchill.bsky.social @marxnchill.bsky.social · 15d

This is the piece that I’ll be giving to them. It’s my favorite piece of art that I’ve ever done.

marxnchill.bsky.social @marxnchill.bsky.social · 15d

I’m so honored that the TMS clinic at McLean hospital will have my artwork hanging in the waiting room 😇

I repotted my Philodendron Brasil into a bigger pot that can accommodate a bigger trellis 🩷

My #Alocasia corms have leaves already! It was less than a month ago that I harvested them. They had tons of roots. Hopefully these babies will be better acclimated to my home conditions.

marxnchill.bsky.social @marxnchill.bsky.social · 18d

Started week 3 of #TMS 😱 this is the week I should start seeing results. So far I have noticed a few results but not much on my depression itself. I still feel like a big slug. Just a really friendly slug.

I checked my other shelves for flat mites and it is contained thank goodness 😅

marxnchill.bsky.social @marxnchill.bsky.social · 19d

#BegoniaBlackForest every single cutting is rooted! Gonna wait for two inches of roots before I sell.

My poor babies 😭😭😭

marxnchill.bsky.social @marxnchill.bsky.social · 20d

All my #Hoyas have flat mites 😭😭😭 for the next six weeks I’ll be treating them all with sulfur. Ngl part of me wants to throw away a few but I think I can handle treating 6 Hoyas. Definitely grateful to have sold two Hoyas lately 🙈
