I don't think my neighbor, Totoro, would be too pleased to hear about this

[Blake Jay @BlakeJayRess]

if you ever find yourself wondering why i do the things i do and/or why i am the way i am, please rest assured that i am also wondering that at any given moment

Update: it reappeared on my phone somehow and this fills me with confusion and inconsolable dread

[Blake Jay @BlakeJayRess]

Me: we could just set the tree on fire and then it would be lit

Tonight while I was watching a vocal coach analyze an Evanescence song on YouTube at 4am, the bats seemed to be unusually responsive to the music. Thus the burning question was raised: is Amy Lee capable of bridging the gap between humans and batkind? In this essay I will

[Blake Jay @BlakeJayRess]

For the past year or so, there have been bats who spend a few nights every month in the wall of my bedroom. I don’t know where they go for the rest of the month and frankly, it’s none of my business.

Gillian: if Blake is taking care of everyone else, who is going to take care of Blake?
Me: I don’t know, the state?

i told my therapist that nihilism is way less cool when it’s just the truth and she laughed a little too hard

[Blake Jay @BlakeJayRess]

i don’t want to say i’m completely losing my shit, but i am definitely not feeling very Cash Money right now.

[Blake Jay @BlakeJayRess]

i don’t know if i’ve ever been this exhausted in every possible meaning of the word before in my life

[Blake Jay @BlakeJayRess]

I mean, it did get better for a little bit.
And then it got so much worse

Ya win some ya lose some I suppose.

And what are we doing now?
We’re losin’ big.

[Blake Jay @BlakeJayRess]

Whenever I read my old journals, I just want to say to the sad, scared, hopeless child who wrote them...

Buckle up bitch.
It gets

much
WORSE.

Welcome to my Twitter history

We got angst! We got conversations I don’t remember! We got things I tweeted on drugs without any context! We got long gaps in time without activity!

This is Being Mentally Ill in the Age of Social Media, a research project 7 years in the making
