“I just finished reading the graphic novel for Be More Chill and I’m convinced Simon’s got some weird nanocomputer in his head that forces him to be the cool one.”

“I’m tired. My thoughts come through clear and coherent more when I’m tired and just laying around in a dark room but not tired enough to sleep.”
“Anyway, in other news, I played a videogame today for the first time in what feels like ages. I thought it wasn’t a mature decision, but the videogame actually helped me process a lot of overwhelm, frustration, and anger that I’d been experiencing. So I guess it turned out to be the mature decision after all.”
“I’m so used to my instincts leading me astray and away from my goals and health and stuff. I’ve always tried to fight them. Maybe they’ve been reprogrammed to the extent that I can finally use my rebellious and immature instant-gratification side…constructively.”
