Trauma and Honesty
There's nothing quite like the feelings of self doubt that come from past experiences where no matter how honest and sincere you are, someone always thought you were lying and berated you for it...
It always makes you second guess yourself when you're being honest because a part of you is on edge about everyone doubting you... That has to be the most psychologically damaging feeling out there.
"after the revolution"
the cosplay people swarming Seattle made me think: after the revolution, we might be able to imbue daily life with some of the semiotic richness and playfulness of that's currently seen mostly at cons and similar point-events. that lighter, looser sense of public life might help compensate for what, for many people, will be inevitably be a diminished material standard of living. i'm willing to make that trade personally.
Inner City Pocket Dimension
Looks like we're expecting rain tomorrow. Ibrecommend dressing for the weather. That includes adequate footwear for muddy trails.
Fuck Wage Slavery
I'm looking at the bright side of all this. I can catch up with everybody in my community, I can put effort into helping complete the arts collective I'm in, I can focus on media production with Cascadia Underground, and I can finally focus on being a cartoonist.
The cabin can wait. All I wish is to pursue the career I've always dreamed of, and give a big fuck you to wage slavery.
Abstrace vs Concrete...Or lack thereof
It always feels weird calling myself a laser-focused and concrete thinker at work when outside of it I'm always stuck in abstract, creative thinking and existential concepts.
And then I realize just how little this has to do with absolutes. I'm indeed an abstract thinker, but I need a job where I'm a concrete thinker because it's grounding. There is something very zen about falling into the pattern of digging a hole or laying bricks.
On the inside of my spaceship...
To close up the front end of my van. Encased in total privacy. I am in my own sacred space. The world out there doesn't effect what's in here. Everything that matters is right here, right now, in the present. Inside this little spaceship. Sailing across the universe. Everything that happens out there doesn't affect what is in here.
