Apparently, I'm Too Sweet. And Not in the Fun Way.

sometimes i wonder how many versions of myself i’ve outgrown without even noticing. i look back at old photos and remember the thoughts i used to carry, the dreams i thought would save me. it’s strange how you can live inside yourself every day and still not realize you’re evolving. it’s only when you look back that you realize how far you’ve come, how many lives you’ve already lived in the same skin.

Sometimes I fantasize about disappearing.

Not dying.

Just logging off.

Getting a job no one cares about.

Growing tomatoes.

Writing poems in the margins of a notebook no one reads.

Not as a failure.

But as a kind of freedom.

It’s about damn time. AOC is a hero. She’s one of the best out there, fighting daily against Trump’s fascist bullshit.

I feel like Substack is lowkey full of the people who get overly excited about the small things in life which everyone else seems to miss - that morning coffee, the luxury of fresh sheets, the tiny synchronicities, evening light

Best mental reset I’ve learned:

If your mind is loud — Write.

If your mind is empty — Read.

If your mind is racing — Walk.

If your mind is tired — Sleep.

If your mind is sharp — Build.

Most problems are just mismatched energy. Get the inputs right, the rest follows.

We are seeing not just the result of Republican bad faith, but of the mainstream Democratic Party’s willingness to trust the liars and traitors on the right. Assuming everyone is as fair minded as you stops being praiseworthy when you are repeatedly cheated.

This comes very close to dismissing Republican abuses to focus on blaming the Democrats.

The right continues to be strategic enough to unite as reliable Republican voters and take command of the party.

The left is still working to dismiss or divide the Democratic party - in a myriad of ways which all serve to elect Republicans.

I don't get it. Did their strategy just happen or did Newt Gingrich engineer it? If we keep applying the same defensive messaging, explanatory rhetoric and fear of taking the fight to the enemy's camp, what do we expect to achieve?
