fleeting thoughts from a chronic ghost
Jan. 10th, 2024 08:14 pmSomething I have had to keep learning is that not everything has to be A Big Production. All-or-nothing comes naturally to me; moderation and pacing myself, not so much.
Relatedly: I am not going to make some big explanatory megapost about why I have been effectively M.I.A. forrrr -checks inbox- ~17 weeks now! Nor will I make some grandiose promise about exactly when and where and how I return! Heck it!!!
Anyway, neat things from recent, because I read this post about gratitude and noticing the little things and doing it is what prompted me to log in again today. Specifically:
Thankful — something I’m thankful for that day
Humor — anything funny from the day
Affirmation — something I did well that day, no matter how small
Noticing Care — remembering a moment of care around me (including self-care)
Knowledge — anything I learned that day
word’s most hasty status update
Oct. 20th, 2023 01:48 pmstill here! got sucked into the RP void however so I am just about anywhere but this account, whoops.
pitfalls of being an all-or-nothing person…! gonna try to rein that in a little over the next week-ish, though, which will ideally mean catching up on the reading page and comments and such :,y always so much to do and so little that sets my dopamine receptors on fire, which is a very sustainable way to live….

screams at social media
Jul. 6th, 2023 10:06 pmoh shit how long has DW had a markdown editor. probably since forever but that makes it a thousand times easier to just bang out a post, baller
anyway hi I haven’t substantially touched this website in years, but the recent twitter meltdown (and, uh, a spontaneous late-night message to one artist I guest-followed over there) made me realize that I still crave internet interaction well, interaction in general lbr more than I strictly care to admit, and every other site is a burning hellscape and social media numbers do Bad Things to my brain in general so here,, i mcFuckign am again.
at least for now. we shall see if it lasts.
Uhhhh I am intentionally writing this in unpolished lowercase because the perfectionist “you have to use this space for Substantial Blog Posts” part of my brain is still active indeed, so why not make a cursory attempt at banishing that demon. besides that I made myself a pseudo-guestbook-thing a while back, and Omori game has been consuming a majority of my brain forrrrr -checks watch- nearly half a year now, so that is cool. here is a related shameless self-promo. i am So fucking sad about the majority of the fanbase being “anti” or adjacent you have no idea
anyway yeah that’s it for this shout to the void; currently-stickied about is old but still more or less relevant (everything still applies, I would just phrase some bits differently nowadays)
oh yeah, and someone dubbed a comic I made! it has made my entire week thus far, I still love it to pieces. check it out!!!!
a’ight that is all~ ✌️
edit: you know what no I’m not done yet but have a “readmore”
