You can be depressed and not feel sad or blue. Depression can also be a haze of sleepiness, distractedness/obsessiveness cycles, and a twinge of irritability that can be hard to recognize because you might already be a “fiery” person. It can feel like a lazy Sunday that keeps imposing itself for weeks or months.
July 27, 1914: Kafka struggles to eat a peach
Ate rice à la Trautmannsdorf and a peach. A man drinking wine watched my attempts to cut the unripe little peach with my knife. I couldn’t. Stricken with shame under the old man’s eyes, I let the peach go completely and ten times leafed through Die Fliegenden Blätter. I waited to see if he wouldn’t at last turn away. Finally I collected all my strength and in defiance of him bit into the completely juiceless and expensive peach.
It’s been 104 years since Kafka ate this terrible peach
Good heart and desire to please. I want a fatal disease.
me: wants to play multiple instruments, create art, speak multiple languages, etc.
me: lays on the floor face down for an hour instead
Lovvvee that all my dude friends act pro-women but continue to perpetuate subtle oppressive attitudes that keep women down more than overt sexism would!!!!
There’s no better way to invalidate a person than by not listening/ talking over them WHENEVER they speak- women are to be seen not herd type shit
Also, in the event that my words aren’t just completely snuffed they’re unreasonably sexualized. PAUSE- Throwing away any and all chances for meaningful conversation and immediately replaced by my very clear discomfit and embarrassment.
Thanks guys, Love y'all too.
