@hupfen I'm a little stoned, but if your friend is willing to cut you out of their life over something like that... they weren't a friend worth having.

You and your work and aspirations are worthwhile. It's okay to be frustrated with this -- what you're going through is hard! But don't blame yourself for the failings of your friend. ♥️

Total Eclipse of the Stamp

US Postal Service are celebrating the August 21 eclipse by issuing a special stamp that shows the moon dark, but reveals it when you rub your finger on it, not unlike Transformers rubsigns from the 80s.

@ElectricKeet Rad! I'll see you there tomorrow morning, then! ^^ I'll be there starting at 9am. ♥️

@ElectricKeet Rad! :D It's supposed to be so nice tomorrow that I'm tempted to pull out my bicycle and try to start my day off at The Den. What says you?

Gotta go do stuff!

And things!

And really just about anything other than the thing I've been doing literally since I woke up this morning. D:

Working from home has its disadvantages.

AAaaaaaaa I need to get out of this house tomorrow. Hey @ElectricKeet! Wanna mob coffee shops?

@Sparrow @ThatDamnCat Yikes!! Glad you're okay! D: The militarization of the police has clearly grown wildly out of control

@Sparrow I moved from San Jose to Seattle a bit over 6 months ago and haven't made it back yet. Wicked Grounds is definitely on my list of places to visit when I'm back in town. ^^

@Sparrow Heck yes, Wicked Grounds! ♥️ I miss that place so much.

The reason I asked was because I've had it both ways.

I have Bipolar II, which is commonly treated with Lithium. One of the side effects of Lithium is short term memory loss. Combine that with weapons grade ADHD and you end up with a stretch of time you barely remember. For me, that stretch was 2 years long.

During those two years, I remember being generally happier -- and so do the people who were around me at the time... but I don't feel like it was worth it.

I held a poll on my Twitter account yesterday, asking whether people would prefer happiness with few memories, or depression with full memory. As one might expect, this carried some unspoken context with it which I'll touch on here in a moment.

I found it interesting that the poll results were so close. awoo.space/media/qr0GzIrF45IPj
