Throwing this out there for any honest input and hoping I don't regret it.

Where is the line (or vast DMZ) between 'agender' identity and just typical dissatisfaction and guilt over culturally expected and imposed norms for one's assumed gender? Are there any distinct qualifiers between "I am not this" and "I feel guilty?"

Will you rise up in rage or do you
Keep getting stranger? (I do)
Keep getting stranger."

Deity, grant me the focus
to complete the tasks I digress from;
the ability to remember the...uh...hrm...the..._shit_

[a few minutes of failed remembering later]

...screw it, let's just do something else.

(I think I'd like to make "Go hug yourself" the de facto response to adorable statements and compliments, like a "Thank you." May be said gruffly--like it's less pleasant cousin GFY--for comedic effect.)

Good morning--or whatever appropriate appellation applies to you.

Hug someone you care about (provided they'd consent, of course). If unavailable, go hug yourself--you deserve it.

Antidepressants are like those inflatable arm-floaties--they keep you from drowning outright, but severely impair your ability to function otherwise, and are practically useless in extremely turbulent waters.

Vy, the handsome devil of a gremlin featured in the icon and pinned item, represents all those traits I'm less fond of, but also the ones that allow me to interact with others at all.

I don't think of either of them as personalities so much as just representations of often conflicting motivations I feel from day to day.

The fellow in my profile header is Traurig (by name, not just condition). I'd like to think he most closely personifies my most common personality attributes.

Empathy and despair, compassion and depression. The desire to help others blunted by anxiety and the fear of outright rejection. The "flight" response.

Woke late this lazy morning; the sky soothing shades of soporific-monochrome--morning daylight diffused through layers of gray. Air of petrichor drifting through the partially-open window, gently rocking the lowered blinds.

@Elizafox and I got totally turnipt. That is where you just drink a lot. It was fun. Would love to get turnipt again. https://awoo.space/media/2o2be5Kl6KXK4fQ5nPQ
