I need a polite and effective way to say "hey your heart is truly in the right place and your anger is often righteous but I think sometimes you’re getting recreationally mad about things that are frankly not worth the amount of energy you’re spending on them, and every time you do this you're driving yourself slightly more insane with nothing to show for it," and then I need a way to broadcast that message through a loudspeaker to roughly 30,000 people at once, and THEN I need a time machine to send that message to my past self lol. and maybe a second time machine in case past me tries to be clever and sabotage the version of me who comes through the first time machine

when James Baldwin said I can’t be a pessimist because I’m alive

[stuckinapril]

when James Baldwin said to be a pessimist means that you have agreed that human life is an academic matter. So I am forced to be an optimist. I am forced to believe that we can survive whatever we must survive.

I have always felt that a human being could only be saved by another human being. I am aware that we do not save each other very often. But I am also aware that we save each other some of the time.

Thinking about what a weird and beautiful time it was to be 16 and starting hormones. Trans healthcare saves lives.

I've been messing around more with some mixed media work. Trying to see how my different mediums and styles can come together.

Ahem. This might be a good time to bring up The Simple Sabotage Field Manual, which is a bit like this only in extreme detail. It was written by the US government during WWII and you can read and download it for free on Project Gutenberg.
