Lying here trying to solve problems I don’t yet have, while hiding from my current problems. A champion! An excellent use of my imagination and focus! Another medal for me in the Doomscroll Olympics!

"You got this!"

Fun fact: I do not got this

I was going to save it as a surprise, but I might as well tell you now: It’s me. I’m winning the Super Bowl. We’ve got it all worked out.

About to go on @uniofbathipr.bsky.social Talk of Iowa to discuss my queasy, ambivalent feelings about social media! The irony of this post is not lost on me!
