  • I was planning on leaving if the orange got reelected. I only didn’t because in the years between when I made that decision (2021) and now, I found myself in a relationship cohabitating with my partner. She’s here as a refugee and can’t leave or that gets rescinded. It took some serious soul searching to decide to retract my longstanding plan to escape this hellish fascist-speedrun. I was even doing phone interviews. If you think you could be happy, do it.







  • 18 yo, senior year. Went to the house where the mom stocked lots of junk food for the teens who hung out there (it was a party house, the sort where she looked the other way to keep us from getting arrested by being out and about).

    Got super high. Microwaved some chicken wings. Took a couple bites before realizing that though they were breaded, they were not cooked. Went in the backyard and stuck my fingers down my throat. Was in fear of food poisoning but got lucky. Never breathed a word about it to my friends.



  • Things you can do when you have fuck-you money to burn: buy a billboard.

    I thought about buying / renting a billboard in a small town in Texas where a shitty family mistreated my partner’s nephew when he did a cultural-exchange program (her family is Thai). It would be essentially this but about that family. I didn’t go through with it because they got kicked out of the program via other avenues.

    I did buy a discounted ad on a podcast to rail about how much I hate ads. That was fun. I think I paid like $175 or something. I don’t have fuck-you money, but I do have low level fuck-around money.
