I like buying them Christmas presents! 🎁

And I’d rather be Christmas shopping for my nieces. I have ideas for them but I want the intel from each sister for the other. One just got back from working os so I might not hear from her for a while.

I’m putting off doing Duolingo because it’s the competition thing again and I feel lazy.

Yep that was cool and I don’t usually want a second season but that would be awesome.

I’m up to the last episode of #WhenDestinyBringsTheDemon no33 and I thought there were two more eps to go! Let’s see how this wraps up.

Ok time for some Ruth Asawa.

"I feel no sense of caution or restraint, nor do I have any doubts, finally. Something has come full circle. I commit the same errors as in the past but they are no longer errors. There is only beauty, passion, desire."

-Annie Ernaux, "Getting Lost" (tr. A. Strayer)

Why am I awake at 5am?

I watch #CDramas for the plot.

The plot:

That is a lot.

I don’t know, there are more trials and tribulations for them. As the blurb says they go through different lives together.

The contemporary scene? Wasn’t that after the credits?

On Sinners: everyone stayed until the credits were finished right?

Did you watch past the credits?

So good right?! That scene was choreographed and shot so beautifully. Michael B Jordan is god tier.

It’s good.

I’d like to read more poetry and I have another Etel Adnan book on its way but it will probably take another month before it comes.

It’s like most of her books it’s also poking sensitive areas.

Asawa went through so much as a young person and was so generous with her talent and creativity afterwards. It must have been excruciating for her at times. Reading ‘We Do not Part’ seems like the aftermath of Han Kang’s process around ‘Human Acts’ so it’s also rich to read and generous.

It’s hard, when everything seems like it’s going to shit, to read about the difficulties in someone else’s life. It can be confronting.

Why I still need my psych.

Yeah that’s why I don’t like the idea of schizophrenia being about a schism in your thoughts. At the worst it can be or appear to be to someone else
but making endless connections was also one of the symptoms of my thinking when I was in psychosis.

I have about 7 eps left of #WhenDestinyBringsTheDemon and I’m putting of finishing them because it’s been so good so far and I’m not convinced the rest of it will be great too. I’m already thinking I might watch the #KDrama #TheFirstNightWithTheDuke or #CDrama #TheFemaleGeneral afterwards.

If it’s a deep discussion about something I can often remind myself to let them in on what I’m thinking too.

I don’t know I can have a whole train of thought in my own head and forget the person I’m talking to isn’t privy to that. So what seems like disconnected thoughts to them is just me needing to clue someone else into that string of thought.

Banana bread: done.

Or I could do both and make banana bread so I could eat it while reading her biography.
