What Kind Of Day(/Week/Month/Year) Has It Been
Published June 17, 2020
For starters? It’s been a whole lot.
- Kobe
- Coronavirus
- George Floyd
- Breonna Taylor - Rayshard Brooks
- (Largely Justifiable) Riots
- et all
- Coronavirus 2.0
Here’s a longer list if you need to refresh your memory — I know mine is shot to shit with all the bullshit out there to keep track of.
I’ve yelled at family and spoken harshly with a lot of friends, both for good reasons and for bad. I’m trying to be better about both.
These past few months I’ve largely been warbling between a few different extreme states of being, including-but-not-limited-to: pure nihilism, liquid despair, wild hope, and (semi)righteous fury. I’m lucky to have roommates. But I’ve mostly felt entirely alone. Which is hardly unusual, but a bit more pronounced these days.
But then again, it’s not so bad. My roommates and I have grown closer. Our house is a marvel of clean livability. We even got a cat. And I’ve finally hit rock bottom: I’m making a short film.
So I probably won’t be back for a while, since between that, work, and trying to keep the world at bay, I expect to be rather busy in the coming days.
So I leave you with this:
CONTINUED PROTESTING IS CRITICAL.
Thank you for your time.
here is the cat
