maybe also worth saying explicitly: lockdown is really insanely fucked up. i have been suffering and going crazy and probably you have too. it is not remotely normal. please keep that in mind when you're wondering why everything seems so bad or you have so little energy

i thought i knew how bad this was going to be based on how isolated i kept myself during grad school and it's been worse actually. even grad school was punctuated by the occasional party or workshop. it turns out there's a huge difference between 1 party every 3 months and zero

there's also a huge difference between being locked down with people you like and can be intimate around vs. not. i have not touched another human since probably august and god knows what that's done to me but it hasn't been good

Intimates have their problems too, it is all super fucked. 🤗🤗🤗

Just came here to say it is indeed, all very fucked. I’ve had random moments where I’ve felt completely dissociative. Twitter is weird too because ive used it to fill the gap but your all just little icons with text instead of the real flesh & blood humans I know you are.
