I’m starting to feel post surgery that I can actually push myself like I used to physically and recover!!

This is huuuuuge for me. It means that aikido is starting to feel like a rest day again and I can start stealing spots on the gym PR board.

I already have 3 spots and almost took a forth tonight. So happy

woo 

Aww man - I hate when I read stuff that I fully understand and agree with but then I hear a "crazy" person talking gibberish and I'm like "Oh I get exactly what they're trying to say - its what that guy I totally agree with was saying"...

>.<

I await my eventual complete decent into gibberish spewing

Got fed up that the touch switch on my intuos kept flipping on and off because it was flakey and just tore the whole thing apart, and shorted the switch, so now it never turns off and my rage levels are decreasing a ton <3

@Fuego Biggest hurdles:
Lunar and solar _will_ be out of sync. Pick one.
Tropical and sidereal _will_ be out of sync. Pick one.
The length of a month on a lunar calendar is horribly irregular; the Hebrew moment is the most accurate measure of it.
The length of a year on a solar calendar has to account for leap time to stay in sync. Leap day/week/month calculations are incredibly complex. I have spreadsheets and they still suck.

I’m gonna develop my own calendar this weekend I think....

Horrifying statue 

Testing sending pics with this new app since the dog app won’t let me...

Make.... Ze Magicks 

Spending the day consciously working on Burrough's Do Easy technique.

Very excited to press this into service at aikido.

You can’t read a book about Aikido by people older than 50 without them trying to talk about the principles of aikido in business like crazy 99 year old Shinto cultist O-Sensei gave one fuck about business...

"If work were good for you, the rich would leave none for the poor."

Ooh ooh lemme take a stab at this one:

They don’t actually give a fuck about Jesus but actually just something something homeland something a future for white children?

low mood 

Having emotional trouble dealing with the news again... I might need to take a break again. This stuff is just completely.... I can't come up with a word that encompasses it that's not unfair

The healthcare defunding, threats against DPRK and Iran, threats to leave PR...

We need to do something and soon...

I like how I always miss it when bad shit goes down haha

Its a genuinely nice thing.

Five novels to know me 

This is really tough, possibly because stress is making my recall exceptionally bad right now, but...

1) Illuminatus - Wilson
2) The Magicians - Grossman
3) Blindsight/Echopraxia - Watts
4) Beowulf
5) ummmmmmmmmm Scott Pilgrim comic series?

This is really hard

uhhh coming out day or something 

i came out in 2013 but the only coming out you do once is to yourself. beyond that, you come out all the time, because "coming out" is about defying the defaults that cis/hets presume. if not for cissupremacy, if not for the kyriarchy, no one would ever need to come out.
