Thank you, welcome, thank you (Patreon)

This last day has been one of my best and weirdest days on the internet so far. I didn’t think it was possible to be super sad and super happy at the same time, but it’s actually a surprisingly great combo. Just like french fries and ice cream, but with tears instead of fries and laughter instead of ice cream.

If you’re new here: welcome! Definitely my favorite corner of the internet. And thank you for helping make a shitty situation a little bit less shitty. 

Right now, I’m just trying to exercise a lot and hang out with friends. This month I have before surgery feels like such a weird chunk of time. I kind of just want to get it over with, but I also realize that this might be the healthiest I’m going to be in a while. 

I’m also trying to find good activities for when I’m in recovery. Ideally it’d be low-key arts and crafts stuff that doesn’t require fighterpilot eyesight. My friends suggested handing me random sculptures and having me paint them while blindfolded. 3/5 good-recovery-activity points. And audio books. 

Any other ideas? I’m all ears, and almost all eyes.
