I just want a place to deposit my brain droppings and enjoy other kind-minded people.
Why rush without reason, if one must rush at all?

You can start a cult without starting a cult just by being good, and absolutely true to yourself.

Leading by unique example is the most powerful yet quiet way to convey your light. Whatever that truth may be.

We all have worth and something to offer one another.

I believe in everything.

I say MERRY CHRISTMAS.

I say it at the mall.

I say it to strangers.

I say it while walking along with my
d!ck out, that I paint grey and tape little elephant ears and eyeballs to.

And then I run up to people and try to put my fingers in their mouth.

AND I WONT APOLOGIZE.

My lifelong obsession with sounds/vibrations continually makes more sense the older I get and the more I learn.

While I wasn’t looking for answers to such questions, knowing more feels validating at the very least.

I have ad-libbed some truly tasteless alternate lyrics for “Holiday Road” during my life but the chorus is so fun to sing.

We all live life but that we get to participate in it in our own unique ways is neat.

Nobody should be forced into a homogenized existence just because the median finds it acceptable.

Exactly as I am is how I can best serve myself and society.

Last night, the community came together at Cove for the first monthly meal. Thank you to the members of H2O, the city's Finance Department, Human Services staff, and all volunteers for your hard work, and everyone that came to enjoy a warm meal!

The next community meal is scheduled for January 7.

Every year for different reasons I have to practically beg Spotify to give me my wrapped.

This will be my last meaningful Wrapped as I begrudgingly switched over to Apple Music back in October.

Since I have had an outdoor snuggly boy cat that naps indoors I have taken more selfies in the past year than in the past five, I bet.

Spending the day with my partner at work as an auxiliary human helper getting ready for the community meal they put together that is happening tonight at the community center. Excited to be of use and grateful for the experience.

Pre-video internet was my favorite internet. Just text and the occasional picture when needed.

You could go at your own pace. Watching videos made me feel like I was captive in school.

As everything begins to make sense
I wonder if this is clarity?
But it is ok not knowing for sure
Whatever it is, I am ready.

For how well my partner & I get along on so many levels as a whole, it is amazing how we meet in these places considering how completely opposite of one another our brains work.

I think our goal is to adopt the better parts of each’s opposing strong points and shitcan our own weak stuff. 🙂

This month has felt really long.

Brain study day, year two.

Get my first MRI today.

I am hoping they will let me see my aura in the raw data.

Not holding my breath, but this is a neurological study so maybe there will be sympathetic ears?

“Alone Again (Naturally)” is one of the most melancholic songs I have ever known.

Even as a kid this song would make me want to crawl into a hole.

Even an instrumental Muzak version heard in a Penney’s could make nearly anyone wistful.

Before I became a real human boy, I must have been a sloth.

Man. “They” just keep making it easier and easier for people step away from the bullshit and spend their money more locally and begin building community again.

Inert is the word I’m looking for.

I am so bored and frustrated and overwhelmed across all of life currently that I have been rendered inert.

It’s a lonely place to be.

I appreciate cats have their own routines. Our one feral outdoor/indoor is let out in the morning after a little breakfast by 9am. He comes back home around lunch, has a Churu and naps for a bit then heads back out around 2pm. He pops back in around dinner time and prowls the night till bed time.

Motivation is a hard thing for me to muster.

But muster I must!

I am the only one who holds myself back. I should do better in remembering that.

A lot of cool projects are just around the corner once I create a bit more oder and calm around me.

I may thrive on chaos but I do not need it.
