My tracker keeps saying I'm in the exertion zone. I'M SITTING DOWN. Does it want me to just knock myself out??

Got a wearable tracker for some of my chronic illnesses, and it gives me 20 pacing points per day to prevent crash, based on my vitals. Ran errands and bought groceries for this coming week today, and it told me I used 70/20 pacing points just doing that 😭😭😭😭 No wonder I'm always in burnout.

I think this year I'm gonna do a hard pivot from Halloween decorations (yes, they're still out), straight into Christmas decorations. Like now. Does this have anything to do with the fact that it's been dark, gloomy, and gray for over a week? ....maybe.

Inside a Dark Space by MJ James is an own-voice sci-fi book with fantastic autism rep. I love how it portrays the space that people still hold for each other to learn about & accommodate each other, even when the world is in a much rougher place. It is hopeful amidst the bleak.

Their Eyes Were Watching God by Zora Neale Hurston. It is a beautiful and painful exploration of womanhood, especially Black womanhood, gender roles, loss of self, and ultimately liberation, but not without cost. Amazing imagery and symbolism, and a story that sticks with you.

Sister Outsider by Audre Lorde, and Aristotle & Dante Discover the Secrets of the Universe by Benjamin Alire Sáenz. The explorations of queerness as not simply attraction, but a broader experience, born within broader marginalization, is nuanced, gorgeous, & visceral in both.

My platform is a lil too small for a successful r*ffle, so I'm instead committing to donate 30% of my royalties to Rogers Park FNB until SNAP benefits resume. Hopefully someday I can make a longer term d*nati*n commitment. I'll also keep the 🔗s for both orgs in my b/*/o for direct d*nations.
