I was just reminded that your worth is not tied to your productivity or how you best assist other people.

You have worth because you /exist/.

As it made me sour to read because anything that remotely touches on my actual feelings sparks that reaction, maybe you need the reminder, too. 😘

My latest poem on Substack.... Guess it's a bit depressing or something... Just what you need for a Friday😂😂😂😂

I always work Saturdays, so I never have the Friday feeling. Don't party much either, I'm a bookish girl, and Friday nights are for reading until 1am.

...oh and FUCK the fascists!!
