My life is a constant tension between
a. Wanting to be All The Prepared, meet All The #Deadlines, make Everyone Happy, Time All The Management
b. Wanting to # live my life, not #grind it away; to #create, #explore, #love my loved ones; to minimize the % of my life involving #email; to not beat my head against things I don't enjoy
Thus, my life looks like a rolling disaster, sometimes, to some kinds of people.

This week's #SundayLunch can also be used as a prop for a fan remake of Alien. Try it at home! (Or don't.)

#patients say #rude #staff, #uncomfortable #questions about #masturbation, years of #assessment with no #therapeutic #support, and abrupt #dismissals without #treatment made the #experience a #livinghell.

#Trump now get's back all the #Mockery and #Assaults he spread for #Years over #Twitter and other Channels. From #JonStewart over #JimmyKimmel to just the #POTUS and much more #Celebs - everyone is shooting back, to give this human #Accident of #Nature back, what he deserves. He is getting #weaker and weaker and more #uncomfortable.
Must be #Hell for him in the #Courtroom. Just the #Beginning of a #downward #Spiral.

Self portrait of the artist. A lot of photographers don't like being the subject of photos. Over the years I've forced myself to take more selfies because it's important to find the beauty in any subject, even ones who don't think they are beautiful.
Two words that wouldn't upset or make you feel upset, if you were truly on a #decolonizing of your mind path:
Settler
Colonizer
Both these words trigger upset & #discomfort #WhitePeople who haven't genuinely embarked on #decolonization paths. Whenever anyone around me feels #uncomfortable enough about those words being used - I remind them that they're #personalizing & missing bigger picture. You're not supposed to feel comfortable w/ decolonization work.
@StillIRise1963 You get it.
@Autism @ahhtism @autismsupsoc Thabks! This reminded me of an amusing #discord I experience. I too like to be #wanted and #helpful. But when they get too #effusive thanking me I get #uncomfortable and then less likely to help them in the future. “Oh crap, they’re going to want to get all thankful after… (hides)” #actuallyautistic
#weird #uncomfortable #TwitterMigration #BlockingAndSilencing here’s something weird: there are (two) people joining Mastodon from Twitter that blocked me on Twitter years ago. I don’t know why they blocked me on Twitter but they did. They have not blocked me here (yet?). Maybe they don’t realize it or maybe they don’t even remember why they blocked me in the first place. Should I not follow them or Fav their posts out of respect for the block? Or should I assume a diplomatic reset?
I've written two books and #SelfPublished both because I wanted autonomy over my writing.
You can find both on Amazon, yes I know, evil, but it was the best option. I'm hoping my 3rd book coming in 2023, will be published by a #TradePublisher. That's my hope.
You can find #Uncomfortable and #Uncomfortable2 On #Amazon
