When people have the temerity to be walking around and doing things
I never minded being an agoraphobe until I had to deal with living with two other humans who also never leave the house.

Discussing bi-polar today, due to Kanye. I get it. He's rich, he can have the best of care - But money don't mean shit, if the person doesn't take their meds.

People make fun of those who wear their mask while driving.
But if I don't, I'm liable to forget it in the rush of 'do I have everything I need when I get out of the car and go in this place?' then suddenly I'm approaching the store and sure I have my phone wallet keys reusable bags but oh right mask.
Wearing it all the time prevents running back to my car constantly.

I always carry a bandana with me (so many uses). But I never think 'Oh lemme just tie this on'.
ADHD makes me feel like a drunk child sometimes.

This is the COVID equivalent of squinting against the sun, looking for something, with your sunglasses in your hand. I feel you.

I have been told that my lack of compassion for Kanye is bad because people with mental illnesses deserve it.
I usually point out that although I know few people personally with the same illness, none of them use their money or skin color to gain entry into the White House and deny the existence of slavery.
This is why I have no sympathy for Trump.

I end up wearing it home from the grocery mostly to remind myself not to touch my face. If I still have my mask on, I am way less likely to rub my eyes.

@Macha And because he's... Kanye, it's not gonna be easy for anyone around him to be the "you need to take your meds" "this sounds like a Manic Episode idea, maybe dial it back and think it through" person in his life.

@insomniac7809 Oh, no doubt. Maybe he needs to hire one. God knows I'm stubborn as fuck when I'm manic. I will do things, even knowing my broken ass will pay for it in pain later. Which only makes the depression slide deeper.

I'm becoming B. I used to be A.
This actually makes me super paranoid when I see the posts here complaining about people that talk on channel too much because I often split up one thought over two or three lines. I've just had to accept there's people that probably hate me for it.
