GO WATCH IT👏

The spirit is willing, but the flesh would like just a quick break please, just really quick, just like a five minute sabbatical

I’m lupus until proven guilty

…Like innocent until proven guilty?

Is that anything?

I’m not TECHNICALLY diagnosed with lupus yet, because I have to see the rheumatologist for more tests. But my ANA is crazy, I definitely have some kind of autoimmune disorder, and I tested negative for RA and Sjögren's syndrome, so like. It’s PROBABLY lupus.

And I’m tired of saying I have “something” or “some weird autoimmune thing” or whatever. I just wanna put a name on it, and right now, that name is lupus.

“All great art comes from suffering,” incorrect, all great art comes from experience and emotion. You can get just as inspired by joy as you can by sorrow. Your mental and physical wellbeing may influence the tone of your work, but it’s not the sole factor determining the quality of your work. That’s just fucking stupid. Don’t stop yourself from healing because you think it’ll make you a worse artist.

Really wish all the “low impact” exercise routines I find weren’t hyper focused on like squats and lunges and shit. Like bro, my knees DO NOT WORK. They simply do not function properly. If I do 15 squats today I’m not going to be able to walk properly for literal days.

…….but like I’m so tired and I NEED to work out to help with my fatigue, and I don’t have the attention span for yoga right now. So I do the five bajillion squats anyway.

And I’m stupid so I forget that that’s a bad idea, so when I’m in an incredible amount of pain just walking up and down the stairs for the rest of the week, I’ll be like

I love following @the-haiku-bot. Like it absolutely destroys my feed, I see so much random garbage I have no interest in. I end up scrolling through an entire chain of like 6 different reblogs, and the whole time I’m just wondering like, “why is this on my feed, why are people arguing about irrigation in Texas or whatever the fuck, how did this get to my dash?”

Then I get to the very end and haiku bot is there just like:

Texas is not like

a whole separate country

you fucking moron

And I’m like oh :) hello old friend :) bringing me the daily news i see :)

Got the results for my blood test back

My ADHD is always in peak form immediately after I come out of a depressive episode. For like two weeks straight I’ll barely have enough energy to make toast and then one morning I get out of bed feeling kind of okay and my brain is just like “WE SHOULD LEARN HOW TO MAKE A VTUBER MODEL”

Hey tumblr why does this email make it seem like Ryan Gosling is fucking dead

This was the intended tone, so glad the encouraging frat bro energy shined through on this one

Dude for real though your worth as a human being is not dependent on how productive or “useful” you are. You could do nothing but lay in bed all today and you’d still be worthy of respect and care. Bro you are a living breathing human being and your life has inherent value. Like straight up you don’t have to do something impossible or world changing with your time on earth in order for you to matter. We are all specks of dust in the cosmos and the fact that you exist at all means you are important. Dude you don’t have to earn the right to live bro, like I swear bro, like no cap.
