Authoritarian Bashing 

From my past experience, there is no such thing as a "benevolent dictator". Those two words are an immediate red flag. Individuals claiming such will always have an underlying malevolence in their need to dominate and manipulate with no regard for the collective interest. Eventually, the facade fades and their egotistical nature is exposed for the world to see.

Oh my god! The new season of Black Mirror is out! I have to watch it.

Work musings 

Just helped an adorable trans guy who, coincidentally, looked and acted a lot like @thefishcrow​ complete with flannel and suspenders. @..@

I will continue, until the day I die, to push for a society that's run on empathy instead of ego. That we become more aware of what can sabotage our collective mindspace. So that we can come together when danger is upon us and fight with the love we share for each other as a community.

Positive turn 

There's another side to the coin of being self reflective. That would be beating myself up. But, lately I find that it's getting easier to let go of those feelings of self dread and guilt and just forgive myself. It lasts about a day before the pain fades away and I can move forward.

Gratitude 

I know I've said thank you many a time. But @mawr is the kindest, most loving, and incredibly generous person I've ever met. Finding them and their family is such a blessing that I find myself in tears. And I cherish that they've offered me a place to stay for the winter.

I can't stand the passage of time... 

I feel like I'm moving in slow motion while the world around me is in fast forward and I can't find the pause button. There are never enough hours in a day for me to get everything done and it leaves me exhausted, drained, and depressed. Fuuuuck...

Final Notes For the Night 

I look forward to shedding my ego like I would my skin. Where I can dissolve into the universe and detatch from the toxins I've accumulated. To hit the reset button and stay on a good path.

We all make mistakes. It's how they're handled that makes a world of difference. With as much responsibility, humility, and integrity one can muster.

I think it might be time to head back out to the forest for another healing. To avoid picking the scabs of old wounds and continue to mend.

Breaking in the bowl 

And an incredibly fitting grinder with leaves on it! awoo.space/media/daxi9I9pZs5yU

For the first time ever, I've pondered getting my ears pierced.

Liberal bashing 

It makes me angry that liberals have whitewashed and watered down the term "love and peace" as a way of giving nazis a free pass and perpetuating the tolerance paradox.

I only give love and peace to those who deserve it. My comrades and my community. So we can be united and empowered in toppling the fascist neoliberal monstrosity.

Introspection 

I really need to be more mindful of the context and emotional intensity in my wording.... Or whether saying something is truly warranted. When you think you're helping a situation, then realize it's doing the opposite...There's a lot to ponder and a lot to learn from there.

Faerie Musings 

Faerie folk always have a crazy dynamic of balancing a youthful curiosity and naivete with wisdom beyond our years. I often find myself frustrated when the two go head to head instead of hand in hand. Thankfully, the struggle to maintain the right harmonious frequency is aided considerably with good medical grade strains.

I'd like to wish everyone a happy holidays! Stay safe out there with all that snow and slush.

Figured I'd flex my multistylist abilities and use rayman as a reference for this piece. I love how it turned out! awoo.space/media/M05fF9g4n7e3S

Pronoun Musings 

I'm really starting to consider the possibility of adding they/them alongside he/him.

I'm continuing to recover my more female tendencies that were influenced by my single mother. I may look and sound masculine, but my strength is derived from a feminine nature. My mother is a strong, rugged, and self relaint woman. And my desire to become independent and stand on my own two feet directly stems from her. A raw sense of resourcefulness that was also prevalent in my grandfather.
