Limited — Martha Crawford - What a Shrink Thinks I am many things, I have some strengths that I can fairly claim as my own: I sing great lullabies, I am a voracious reader, an eager student. Although I probably think I am a little funnier and smarte...

Profound innumeracy is just so embarrassing to me - and always has been.

Its really just exposing and vulnerable on a daily basis.

I wrote this long before cancer/chemo, when I “just” had dyscalculia/innumeracy

Once, I Had a Mind Like a Steel Trap. Brain Fog Changed Everything. As a therapist, I counted on my memory. Then I lost it.

I’m going to try to set down a little self hatred here so that I can locate some patience if not some explicit compassion for myself by the end -

Its so incredibly frustrating to live at the intersection of life-long dyscalculia and mild cognitive impairment from chemobrain

Men spend so much time fantasizing about improbable, dire situations where we must be brave or protect someone that we drop the ball on the normal, everyday things that require bravery, discipline etc. You got all the guns to protect against a hypothetical intruder but wont vote for women's rights.

Michael Bolton’s Said I Loved You But I Lied had me in a chokehold when I was 7 years old

I am begging guys that are earning enough money to buy several towns from a single income source to stop diversifying their portfolios just because that’s what they see the other wealthy sickos around them doing

The fantasy only works if I don’t look outside! Don’t make me look outside

It’s the new iteration of passing, only now passing is presented as transcending race

Hear me out

What if ‘racially ambiguous’ is just what we call a white character in an A24 film shot under terrible lighting and in a transmuted color scheme

And the signal for racial slide is a bedside photo of said character’s very tan grandma on a beach during a trip she took by boat to Spain

Consent has geopolitical histories—Mohanty would say, as would Ella Shohat
