"Don't make us come over there and sort your shit out!" -HR Dept. No, that sounds like the absolute worst.

Afraid of losing what so little I have if something goes wrong.

I'm thinking about doing just that. I love this place but I can't always be hit with 'the world is on fire and is coming for you' first thing if I'm meant to go on living my life like nothing is happening, further enraging me because I feel I should be doing SOMETHING but can't because I'm afraid.

Me: Oh wow! I haven't been on bsky in a hot minute! I should pop in and remind folks I'm alive.
*pops in and suddenly remembers why*
Me: Oh yeah.

I love smelling like vanilla and sugar cookies!

I take unintentional breaks from this place because of all the reminders that this country is trying to kill me. When I come back, I have no idea what's happening. I'm like 'why are there five posts in a row talking about Akroyd documentaries? Is he dead?" Cuomo did what?"

Wow. That's so sad for them.

There's another way to indent paragraphs?

Stop scrolling and post two characters who bring you happiness (if you wanna)

Man, I have to scroll a long time to find a post that isn't about the world on fire.

I'm going to have a writing nap in which I think about my projects before I drift off to sleep.

I do what I want! No one can tell me I can't drink a tub of melted butter for breakfast.

This movie messed me up for YEARS! Until I was 23, I couldn't watch this movie. I had to watch it for a college class. Only then did I realize how funny it was. Paul Reiser got what he deserved.

Horror movie where the Child-Eating Cyclops Monster eats children every week, but because he wears a clean suit and tie and frames his desire to eat children as an academic thought experiment, the authorities allow the Cyclops to continue for the sake of civility.

Thanks! I'm very happy with them. I've been posting Bleakwood Falls on Substack.

#3- Mayhem vs Fvckery is about a guy whose parents promised his soul to 5 demons and must fight to keep it when they come to collect.

A5: I am working on three mini projects that have 999 words or less (or your money back!). #1- Bleakwood Falls is low-key about vampires. #2- As the Chicken Thaws is a soap opera about what happens when the chicken isn't thawed the day before the wake and the secrets that are revealed while it thaws

I need this shirt! Flames... Flames on the sides of my face. Heaving... Heaving breaths.

The funeral was beautiful but my friends and I were devastated. We wished there was something we could have done, but he hid his pain, as we all do. I felt bad about feeling glad that it wasn't me lying in the coffin. Life is tough but I've become tougher. John, you should be here with me.

I remember the last time I saw him. It was after school and all the kids were waiting for their various buses. We passed each other and smiled and waved. We didn't recognize the pain behind the masks. We didn't know it would be the last time we'd see each other.

September is Suicide Awareness Month. This means a lot to me because on September 6th, 1998, I attempted to unalive myself and failed. Unbeknownst to me, my friend John was doing the same thing and completed.
