    <content type="html">it's just sinking in for some people &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;someone pointed out that things "used to be simpler" because you used to be a child. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;when people say, "it used to be worse," you believe them.  when they say, 'it used to be better,' you (should) mistrust them. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;i never expected to be living in this world. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;and I'm still trying to figure out why i'm burned out, why i don't want to talk to anyone.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;why do i feel like I need to write things down, and then write something else. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;personally speaking, i have been really sensitive all day. cannot wake up or stop being hungry or even hit the right keys. finally gave in and took one of the last 4 adderall. i haven't asked in a minute-- it could be worse. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;i suppose if I carry on, i might actually use my degree, but most days, i just vaguely remember winston smith talking about a lot of people forgetting about middle-class pleasures. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;on the current deep crisis of faith -- i wonder what astrological alignment I've tweaked lately. &lt;br /&gt;i don't know if people are good --if i'm good, if we're no better than our class and our power. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;when i see people rationalize terrible things, and I remember the terrible things i have rationalized. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;when i think of what I've tried and how I'm just trying to have what I've been saving for later. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;and there seem to be two ways I write--with nothing said or with a clown car to unpack.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="https://youtu.be/WfgPEh2J9aI?si=OWcg_vR_JKEC1ElR"&gt;https://youtu.be/WfgPEh2J9aI?si=OWcg_vR_JKEC1ElR&lt;/a&gt; &lt;br /&gt;---I've Seen All Good People: a.

    <content type="html">&lt;a href="https://boingboing.net/2017/04/08/six-to-end.html"&gt;https://boingboing.net/2017/04/08/six-to-end.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hurrah! A new platform! Look how bouncy it is!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I enjoyed LiveJournal for a long time, but I'm joining the mass fandom/SJW exodus.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Funny, LJ as "owned by Russians" didn't bother me, what with the cold war being over and all, but LJ kowtowing to restrictive Russian government practices bothers me.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And my paranoid brain is like, "Russia is spying on you through your LJ account to tell The Occupant about you," and I'm reaching for the export buttons.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The weirder thing is how little I blog.  Here's some other places you'll rarely see me :D&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://scyllacat.tumblr.com/"&gt;http://scyllacat.tumblr.com/&lt;/a&gt; (Not always safe for work)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="https://ravenquillsdesk.wordpress.com/"&gt;https://ravenquillsdesk.wordpress.com/&lt;/a&gt; (Not safe for conservatives)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="https://scyllacat.blogspot.com/"&gt;https://scyllacat.blogspot.com/&lt;/a&gt; (Not safe for people expecting entire sentences)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;P.S.  please add me.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src="https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=scyllacat&amp;ditemid=258" width="30" height="12" alt="comment count unavailable" style="vertical-align: middle;"/&gt; comments</content>
