For the last 3 years something irrevocably stupid and emotionally scarring has happened to me during each summer. Usually avoidable, and inevitably partially culpable by yours truly, I've avoided letting such things happen. I've been successful, it's been a boring but content summer for me. All indicators are sweatily indicating I'll be heading to college in thr fall for the study of "Anything but full time factory labour oh please oh god".

My life is on track, but you better...

I've been playing the Oddworld games again. I've never articulated just how fucking crazy I was about this series I was when I was a kid. It's an easily (and perhaps appropriately) forgotten fact that the reason I signed up for OWF in the first place was to show off my totally-rad self insertion fanfiction, about some Mudokon with long black hair and telekinetic...

I'm trying to have a more positive attitude lately. This can be tough when you've made a big part of your personality being critical and judgy on a fairly petty level. I've been through what some people have described as a dark place, that's accurate. I can see it, feeling that I'm beginning to leave it behind, taking up a lot of my time over the last few years. ...

I've lived across the street from an elementary and high school for most of my life. The brief respites from this living situation had their own horrors conceived of ill-planning and zealotry. I'm moving soon. A proper move, hopefully before the end of June. I can't precisely articulate how living practically door-to-door with these institutions is bothersome...

I think that the people at Charlie Hebdo were agitators. If anyone's surprised that some insane, murderous piece of shit blew them away they're likely not familiar with the extent of Charlie Hebdo's racist xenophobic bullshit.

That being said, those gunmen (and their accomplices) are/were scum of the earth, and I sincerely hope that the consequences of their hideous crimes serve as a lesson to any other extremist piece of shit out there. My heart goes out to the families of the employees,...

I had a fine Christmas. Merry Christmas, Oy Gevalt, Happy Holidays, Allahu Ackbar, etc... Equal greetings for all cultures I know next to nothing about.

I won't bore you with what I received, but it was mostly movies, books and clothing. I got a Sriracha Sauce shirt that makes me look like a giant spice boy. Also a collection of the first 5 issues of Southern...

Today I was smashing the old back steps apart with a pickaxe and my rippling, thunderous calves. They were rotting and making the house look slightly trashier than usual, leaning on our stoop. I made sure to make those really loud grunts that nobody actually needs to make when doing something involving smashing but they keep the mood right.

Lemme keep this reeeeeaally condensed: Most of the weirdly unhappy blogs over the last 18 months are the result of going off medication I figured I didn't need but I'm actually a statistical anomaly and it's really good that I take it and now I'm taking it and
