Happy New Year!

Time goes faster as an adult. So many things I was told I would understand when I'm older—( small USAn political rant )

—but I do see that time goes faster.

My abuela isn't doing well. ( cessation of life & jokes about being eaten because I'm an irreverent ass )

And now for something completely different! Here's some new resolutions, more short term this year:

In the next three months, I want to nurture my creativity by engaging in active recreation—by this I mean rather than passive consumption of media, I wish to create new works while engaging with the world around me in a relaxing and nourishing way.

I want to encourage my inner critic to release its vehemence which was necessary when it worked so hard to shield me from harmful and toxic soul-crushing, and now can transmute into a gentle and thoughtful advisor.

I would like to meditate regularly. I choose to set my intentions to be concrete here by meditating before lunch every day. No restriction on length—5 minutes would be fantastic. Just every day or as regularly as I can.

I'm proud of my desire to grow.

What the hell happened today, United States? Seriously? I knew we were bad, I knew we were this bad, but I guess I expected there to be a plan to improve things for SOMEBODY (even if it was just white supremacy and rich people like usual) and not just the Capitol equivalent of the raid on area 51.

Fuckers.
