When people ask me what I mean about wanting mutual aid a lot more than I want more self-care, this is (part of) what I mean:

@RigbyAllie Ooo I love Al!

I was going through a sketchbook from 2017 and found the list of names I was considering before settling on Aster! My top three others were Arbor, Briar, and Vesper.

If you’ve changed your name, what were your alternates?

@ChromiumJones Awh thanks!!

I made this shirt in 2017! I’m a queer + disabled independent artist who screenprinted this by hand! If you buy a knockoff of my design, go to https://t.co/X77sayoUdX and throw me a few bucks!!

Lol I designed and screenprinted this shirt myself in 2017 and people are linking to knockoffs as “the original” 😂 it was the first run of shirts I ever did, which is why a lot of the y’s are messed up!

me, every morning: I feel like I COULD have a panic attack but not that I necessarily MUST right this second
my wife: just take the dang meds!
me, 30 mins after meds: aha yes I feel pretty normal again, what a treat

[aster @easternfolly]

I’m coming to terms with needing anti anxiety meds daily due to medical PTSD. Idk why this has been hard for me when I’m on daily antidepressants 🤷🏻‍♂️

Scan looks good!

[aster @easternfolly]

Sometimes you spend a week processing trauma, fixating on death & dying, and having anxiety despite plans made to the contrary.

(cw cancer mention)

I have a scan this week that I’m suuuuper anxious about — like literally covered in a sheen of cold sweat for the past couple days. Any good wishes or thoughts are appreciated! Cancer sucks.
