Last night I did my version of a hard mental reset, after a day of many fellows harassing me on the street & it just... getting to me. I felt super sad about not being able to get a hug from someone safe at day's end.
But! The reboot worked, and today I woke up feeling much calmer and better prepared to face the fray. I have some routines I'd like to rebuild for better wellness, but today's mainly a writing day. Hope your own brings you great joy and little to no harassment. ❤️
A favorite pasttime of mine is hanging out on Discord w/ my friend Blodeuyn to do our own version of Amazon 1-Star Review Theater: one star reviews of popular creative works (books, TV, etc).
We actually branch out into almost anything, but the best are always classic literature with wide acclaim.
We got the idea from one of my favorie (now defunct) radio shows from while I was in prison: Wits Radio.

@FernLovebond 🔥 Oh, that is a gloriously wholesome pastime. And thanks for the link; those are *so* much funnier when read aloud. I wish John Green still did his podcast reviewing everything in the Anthropocene. We need more absurdity in this grinding world. Glad you and your friend are keeping the spirit of it alive. :)
