Thinking about deleting all my social media. There's nothing good here.

Democracy is fucked because people rely on oligarchy-bought politicians to fix the problems they're paid to look the other way on.
Russia, Belarus, the UK, and the US have all fallen to the oligarchy. Germany is next. Just watch.
I'm not going to be safe anywhere, ever. I regret getting talked into trying.

German Greens are way better than US Greens. I wish the Green Party in the US was anything half as good.

If I hadn't been trans I would have fallen for MAGA and much of my hatred for them is my hatred for myself.
That's why I wanted a final stand. To eliminate myself in the process.
I'm way too much like Mr. C in that 1940 Harper's piece: smart but humiliated to nihilism. Resentful of the struggles I've had to face. Happy to be the one wearing the boot for once.

AfD ist US-Imperialismus. Eine Stimme für Weidel ist eine Stimme für Trump. Machen Sie aus Deutschland nicht Amerika!

The old paradigm that atomized us was "Expect dishonesty by default, and punish honesty."
The new paradigm that unites us must be "Expect honesty by default, and severely punish dishonesty."
Be wary of someone nobody has met face to face and be smart about giving, but if you have no reason to suspect dishonesty, give people the benefit of the doubt.

Well, Trump is going to make my passport dubious on day 1 I see.
I'm going to be meeting with an immigration law firm here in the Cologne area at my first convenience. I will not comment further until I have sought legal counsel.

Looking for something respectful to do instead of watching the inauguration shitshow?

Peace is a good default. It's a good preference. Reluctance to fight without good cause is admirable.
But the compass that always points toward peace will one day point toward injustice. There comes a point where you have to stand up to bad actors or become their unwilling asset.
Err on the side of justice higher than laws that are easily corrupted to an appeal to force.
What is most important isn't that those who do wrong are punished, but that those who have done no wrong are NOT punished.

Opening a window helped. Still can't lift the steel shutter because there's a busy road outside and the drivers out there are irritatingly nosey. But some fresh air is coming in.

Once you have dedicated your identity, your passion, your resources and being to something, it can seem less painful to keep living the lie than to break with the lie and divest from it.
But this is a cruel lie we tell ourselves. Your suffering will be far greater if you ignore what your heart and mind are both telling you to be true.

The unwillingness to accept that you invested in a lie will bring you undue suffering. 🧵
It can be a system that you thought was just, but reason tells you it's corrupt.
It can be a sect that made you feel like family, but you know they sexually exploit children.
It can be a country that you thought was the greatest on earth, but it's unbearable now, and you know it was always headed this way.

Term is up on our short term rental and we needed a new place so we're in a different place now, this time in Manfort. Still no long-term accommodations. We could do a lot with a space like this but I'm glad this is short term, as it's on a busy, run-down street, and it's so noisy I can't sleep.

I had the most BIZARRE dream about some high roller I'd never heard of taking an interest in my photo essay "The Stones We Throw" and inviting me to an elite party that involved furry fetish gear. But not in a fun way. More of an uncomfortable, creepy way.
Also King Charles was there. He never said anything to me, just stared awkwardly. But he kept turning into an ermine and skittering around the room.

I don't know what's got hold of me but it's not letting me down easy. Went and ran some errands this evening. Regretting it. But I'm healing fast considering 24h ago I was having delirious dreams about poop artifacts.

I'm recovering. Still not great but I was able to get a grocery run in. I still need to make another run to get some things but I'm going to pace myself.
Train station ham croissant, man. Never again.😫
