The person next to me at this coffee shop is reading email with one iPhone while conversing with someone on a second iPhone.
They must practice ULTRABUSINESS 📱📱📊💼👔
I DID IT! 🚲 I rode my bike to the coffee shop 5 miles away! And I didn't die!
( okay okay, that last part is only partly true. I am so out of shape. XD )

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.

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?
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. https://awoo.space/media/qr0GzIrF45IPj0Migl4
I fudged a bunch of that up; Jeremiah Reeves was from the 50s, not the 30s, and it's not exactly *rural* MN but it's the outskirts of the twin cities where red votes outnumber the blue.
But yeah, super gotdamn proud of my sister. :D
My little sister is student teaching an 8th grade class.
Last week was all about Jim Crow laws, ending with a segment on poems from an incarcerated black gay man from the 30s (Jeremiah Reeves).
This week she's "facilitating a discussion on the N word"
Her classes *adore* her even though she's teaching all this in rural MN and tying all this into Black Lives Matter and current events.
I am SO UNBELIEVABLY PROUD of my little sister ♥️ ♥️ ♥️

We grew up with fewer positive interactions with humans, and more time to focus on everything else in the world.
We have to either make our peace with the rejection of family and tradition, or learn to radically reinterpret them.
We have to fight against consensus reality just to express our identities and live our lives.
Queer people are magic.
It's not that we're born with some secret chosen-one destiny.
It's just that we get plenty of practice at it.

I have been thinking so much about identity lately... mostly from a philosophical perspective.
Philosophical thought is dangerous; it's far too easy to forget where you came from or how to get back. @.=.@
