Is it pandemic brain, or long-covid brain-fog, or peri-menopause, or depression, or ADHD, or profound burnout, or limbic hijack, or “just allergies,” or all of the above?
ADHD is thinking about all the things you have to do, getting stressed about all the things, worrying about the consequences of not doing the things, but still feeling stuck and unable to do any of the things.
Transgender surgery is older than:
- The discovery of Pluto
- Modern toilet paper
- Chicken tikka masala
- Duct tape

- Ciabatta bread
- Velcro
- Tupperware
Now stop calling it new or experimental!

Pride month starts in 3 days.
Pride isn't brought to you by T-Mobile and Absolut Vodka.
It was brought to you by drag queens, trans women throwing bricks. By lesbians and queer women taking care of gay men dying of AIDS in the face of an intentional government neglect.
The phrase “if you cared, you would [remember, notice, be on time, listen, etc]” is so funny because I care so much it hurts but I just can’t change the behavior because that’s not how my brain works.
And by “so funny” I mean “utterly devastating.”
