i don't really know how to describe what changed. there's a sense of urgency i clearly remember having when i was writing that stuff and i just don't have it anymore. a lot of the old stuff feels kind of overwrought to me now lol

math hermit mode is probably not sustainable but it's at least bringing out another part of me that i like and haven't had around in awhile and want to keep around. doing math for me has this very penetrative masculine hunting kind of energy that i'd been missing

and that masculine math energy synergizes bizarrely well with lifting. thinking about a problem while taking a break between squats actually feels like a very coherent thing to do somehow. i'm in one mode the whole time
