first two times visiting my sister, didnt know how to interact with her cat. this time feeling way more connected with the cat and its rhythms of attention. communication from one neurodivergent being to another

been having dream of lying somewhere warm with a slight breeze, for weeks or months or long as required, until my mind starts to calm down, depression fades away. chanelling this image lying down when feeling depressed, imagining it as a loving practice instead of anything else

reimagined pacing around my apartment alone looking for where I misplaced my phone as a meditative ritual then started laughing

have an untested theory that standing desk helps my back pain mostly because I take more frequent mini breaks to run around the room, jump up and down, hang from the loft
imagining becoming relaxed enough that I might be available to fully appreciate an unexpected turn of events that completely conflicts with any previous ideas of what my life was supposed to be like (Q1 Planning)

listening to music, trying to destroy all categories, all past selves, all futures. working on letting the devil into my heart. transmuting anger into playfulness. been getting interested in taking more detailed notes recently. planning to email my grandmother tomorrow.

it feels different to type here than it does to type on sunbeam.city, I think because I don't have utopian dreams for this place, which is sort of a relief, makes it easier to write in some ways. the pressure of utopianism can be its own shadow
after a long time of being logged off here, I feel like on returning I should have something in particular to say about what happened while I was logged off, to fill in the gap, but I don't, I give up on all summaries, I feel different than I did before, but I always do

lived in an apartment without lights for a few weeks and its deepened my suspicion of artificial light - feel healthier when biorhythms align with the sun - want to live in a world without light pollution where 7 generations from now people can see the stars

energetically have the feeling that watching steam rise from pots and pans on the stove while cooking can be as nourishing as the food
