Well this is kind of a whole mood for being alive in 2024...

I've largely just existed the last few weeks. My normal routines and disciplines have been nowhere to be seen.

Meanwhile there's this kind of chuckling disbelief, at it all. I know its happening, but it doesn't feel like it should be real. Reality is off kilter, and everything feels up in the air, like well... *shrug* So that's a thing.

I know I think differently than most folks but I think I'm shocked at the gap between how I figured things were going with this election and what happened. I am overwhelmed at the magnitude of the choices made and what it says about my fellow citizens.

It feels vaguely matrix like. Suddenly the world doesn't feel like the world I know, and even more divorced from the basic standards of decency and rationality that I thought were here.

My old normal feels strangely performative and shallow.

Good morning groovy souls!

I need to pull up. I'm feeling pretty good. I'm trying to bride the gap between feeling better and the motivation to take the next step. I'm still kind of bunkered in and hiding, I havent been able to reestablish my routines.

I will get there. It always takes me longer to get restarted than I'd like or expect it to take.

ADHD Burnout and overwhelm. Which sounds terrible, but in reality I'm ok... just kind of a lump at the moment.

It's been a while since I left a fun review

Good morning groovy souls!

I'm having a hard time pulling up. I'm in a pretty good place mentally, but it's not translating to much at the moment.

I guess I'm still processing. I'm letting myself have time, while trying to push a bit each day.

Rebuilding like this always takes me more time than I expect but eventually my paws will catch traction and I'll be going like I was again.

@catmomkathy Hello new buddy! Thank you for joining me on the journey!

Good morning groovy souls!

I am feeling better, feeling focused, but I'm still not on the bounce. I'm having a hard time pushing beyond where I'm at right now and that's ok.

It's hard for me to show this patience but I know if I push to hard I will make even less progress.

When I'm restarting there are always a few moments of false start until everything catches and I'm back at 100% again.

Things will sort!

Wow I made 20 dollars in one week of sales from Farthest Star.

More of that please!

I am saddened my ancestors did so much to make it hard for them to be. May we do better than those that came before us.

Hope is often an act of defiance, it's believing in what can be over what is.

But what keeps that hope from being false? The resolve to take the steps to get there.

Silly humans.

"Do not be daunted by the enormity of the world's grief. Do justly, now. Love mercy, now. Walk humbly, now. You are not obligated to complete the work, but neither are you free to abandon it." — The Talmud

Thank you to all those who have served.

May the Veterans we have now have the honor of being the last Veterans. May we remember the fallen, by putting down the cause of war forever.
