@reygez I love you too you goose, if you're having a hard time, give me a random call out of the blue, send me a text (no hello how are you bullshit, we r past that, just rant to me if you're bored, no matter how heavy!)
@reygez You don't have to justify it, I don't think anyone is mad at you for it here and while we (or me personally) appreciate the openness and it encourages me to be more open with my own mental health struggles, you don't owe it to us or to anyone, you're more than a few tweets
@dissolved___grl MOOD. My life is groundhog day with British pronunciation. Having a northern wife truly makes you go "can you PLEASE define your vowel sounds I don't know what you are talking about" like 3 times a day minimum
“so your hand isn’t in mine, but I feel / it there—when I am asleep, awake, inside my mind room.”

One of the key themes of my Lispector book is how she defies and destabilizes characters, plots, language itself, brilliantly showing the ambiguity of our lives and our futile attempts to control them through words. A writer for anyone harassed, lost and confused by the world.
