I used to have a real description but this is all you get now.

I lost it at this:

It’s always important to ask kids “what do you mean?” before potentially getting offended. Like the time a kid told me, dramatically, that he was homophobic. When asked what he meant, he told me he couldn’t breathe in crowded places.

Oh bless he tried real hard with words there

framing this on my mind wall ^

I had friends over to my place over the weekend which is big for me because a) I am never the one to make plans and b) after living with my parents for the past few years and not feeling comfortable bringing friends there inviting people to come to the place where I live feels so strange? And it went fine but I was sooooooooo worried afterwards that I was annoying and my stuff was boring and everyone hated me and my apartment. Like it was keeping me up at night. But then my same friends asked me to go out with them tonight and also everyone said my apartment was nice and we had a good time! So basically what I have learned is everyone still likes me and it's all okay and it turns out when you have your own apartment you can invite your friends who you know and like over to hang out and that's not weird and could even be a fun time for you. Soul healing realizations all around.

i'm both dumber and smarter than you think so don't underestimate me because i'm actually smart about a lot of stuff but also don't be surprised if i'm dumb about some other stuff hope that helps

i dont know exactly how to articulate this in a way other people havent but everything is too fast now. 24/7 news cycle, online focuses that last for hours instead of months or years, songs written just so ten seconds can go viral. movies and books churned out to meet some nebulous income quota. idk. im motion sick

You're not alone or the first to feel like everything is going too fast

god it's like nobody even cares that [problem i've taken great pains to make sure nobody will acknowledge] looks like i have no choice but to make it worse in isolation for reasons i can't articulate and don't understand
