We should appropriate the "protect and serve" motto and give it to bartenders instead

TO THE YOUNG WHO WANT TO DIE Sit down. Inhale. Exhale. The gun will wait. The lake will wait. The tall gall in the small seductive vial will wait will wait: will wait a week: will wait through April. You do not have to die this certain day. Death will abide, will pamper your postponement. I assure you death will wait. Death has a lot of time. Death can attend to you tomorrow. Or next week. Death is just down the street; is most obliging neighbor; can meet you any moment. You need not die today. Stay here - through pout or pain or peskyness. Stay here. See what the news is going to be tomorrow. Graves grow no green that you can use. Remember, green's your color. You are Spring.

On the days I am about to give up, this Gwendolyn Brooks poem gives me an anchor.

Write every day for 1 hour. If you miss a writing day add 1 hour to the next. It’s incredible! Tomorrow I’m writing for 7 years.

I'm reading a book that's a collection of vignettes, it's called 'We Want What We Want" by Alix Ohlin. It's very good!

I've been listening to Odd Beholder, who reminds me of Mitski in her own unique way. Also, the new FKA twigs album.

I've been wanting to start reading again for many years, since I lost my stamina in a tragic book-related accident. Recently this has looked like starting *many* books and not finishing them.
Proud to say I finished a book recently.
It was not very good, but it was an easy read. Working my way up.
