Shitty musician, worse artist, mediocre writer.
I'd love to write more, but I've been struck down by a chronic condition known as 'lazy bitch disease', so I'll be indisposed for the foreseeable future.

I'm almost convinced I was cursed with the gift of prophecy by Apollo or something because a weirdly high proportion of my predictions are accurate - as long as the outcome I predicted is detrimental to at least one person.

The weirder part of this is that I don't remember ever dating Apollo.

What's up demons, I am once again out here screaming into the void.

Go read my stuff.

Okay screaming over.
Quiet on the way out - Melancholia

Pugs are the culmination of humanity's transgressions against nature and I will be hearing no arguments against this take.

Knowing what your problems are but not knowing how to fix them is genuinely one of the worst feelings; especially when other people are pointing them out too.

Like yeah, thanks for telling me what I already know; would you mind actually helping me with it?

I've done a thing. Please go fulfil my crippling need for validation at your earliest convenience.

Happy pride month!

Sometimes I'll have a moment of clarity where I realise I'm a bad writer, but then I'll just decide to make it everyone else's problem anyway. So the end result is the same as if I had confidence, just with more imposter syndrome.

Still haven't decided whether I find it funnier to constantly make fun of myself, or always be hyping myself up, and the result of this indecision is that I'll swing wildly between the two.

I imagine people are trying to tell if I'm a narcissist or depressed, when really I'm just an idiot.

Unfortunately writing has made me realise that I don't have nearly enough whimsy in my life. No sure what to do with this information, but realistically it's just another thing I'll stress about until I forget.

I keep forgetting that to actually be an author I need to like put work out there. But that seems like a lot of effort and I can't focus on something like that for nearly long enough

How likely I am to be correct on any given call is inversely proportional to how serious I am while making it and I honestly can't tell whether this makes me a goofy cartoon character or a tragic lesson in dramatic irony.

Periodically, I get sudden bursts of motivation to make a youtube channel and get to the point where I've mostly set up the channel customisation, and I'll script a video. And then I'll either remember that video editing hurts my brain, or forget that I was ever motivated. Next time tho...

Honestly I have no idea what I'm doing here; however since I am here, I fully intend to make it everyone else's problem
