Fire can warm or consume, water can quench or drown, wind can caress or cut.

And so it is with human relationships: we can both create and destroy, nurture and terrorize, traumatize and heal each other.

-- Bruce D. Perry

Nobody realizes that some people expend tremendous energy merely to be normal.

-- Albert Camus

Where my Bards at on this wonderful Tuesday?

FYI, if you abandon your pet? You're a piece of shit. There's no excuse.

Unpopular opinion:

Actors' personal lives are none of your business. Going out of your way to figure out what an actor is doing that isn't public knowledge is stalker behavior and shouldn't be tolerated in any capacity.

I said what I said.

Okay, void. Hear me out.

A Secret Santa among total strangers that is 100% nothing but handmade gifts. You can purchase materials, but you cannot purchase the finished product. Give #artists a chance to REALLY connect with each other and network.

If I can get at least a group of 10, I'll host it.

Man, I love having a h8 group that has been actively driving a smear campaign against me for the last like... three years. At this point, it's just outright funny.

According to them, I'm an all-powerful, world-ending demon bent on igniting humanity's destruction that needs to be defeated...

Good morning! Casual reminder that "fake it 'til you make it" does not apply to intelligence.

Wisdom cannot be imparted. Wisdom that a wise man attempts to impart always sounds like foolishness to someone else. Knowledge can be communicated, but not wisdom. One can find it, live it, do wonders through it, but one cannot communicate and teach it.

-- Hermann Hesse

Heads up for anyone who doesn't know:

If your #mentalhealth care provider recommends Paxil/Paroxetine to you? Decline it and request something else. The medication itself works fine, yeah. It's honestly great.

The problem is the side-effects when you come off of it, and inevitably you will.

Just finished rewatching the #lordoftherings series and the #hobbit series.

One thing I've realized about Gandalf?

Bro is definitely the DM self-insert that only helps as much as he needs to in order to keep the FTPs and murder hobos alive in the story.

Hyperfocus, man. It's a blessing and a curse.

Happy Caturday!

Lesson learned:

Never try to #crochet when sleep deprived when you're dyscalculic and dyslexic. Ya end up with pure chaos in your rows.

...I don't even know what happened.

"What's it like keeping doves?" This photo just about sums it up.

Dad is sitting on mom who is sitting on two eggs in the food bowl while hatched child begs to be fed even though he should be weaned. There's a perfectly good nest behind them and we had to sacrifice a soup bowl to feed them.

Oh, since I'm basically just shouting into the void for now? Lemme just say that choosing the chaotic path with no filter or concern about impressing others has made life so much better and significantly easier.

On an unrelated note, I plan to dye my hair either fuchsia or purple soon.
