full time escapism enthusiast!!! (also author of the more or less definitive guide to self-care, failed podcast host, writer of words about mental health around the internet)
writing a book is so much fun because every once in a while you're like "wow this might actually be good???" but more often you're like "oh wow this is actually really terrible and i will humiliate myself if anyone else ever sets eyes on it"
you can always spot a twitter user in the wild by how they type because only in the fires of hell does someone gain the experience to reflexively know how to write under the assumption that the most annoying person imaginable will grossly misread the original point.
The potential of this platform is incredible. I really believe that if we all pull together we can invent a new kind of mental illness that only exists on bluesky
thankful to bluesky for recreating a social experience i haven't had since pre-pandemic (glomming onto anyone i recognize when they show up to the party just so i have someone to talk to)

as an unemployed burnout who hasn't produced anything new in years, i was relying heavily on the personal brand (lol) i built on twitter before i was an unemployed burnout so idk what i'll do here but it's kind of freeing!!!
