As everyone starts posting their 2023 highlights please know that if the only thing you did this year was simply survive that is something to be so proud of. You’re still here. You did it. I’m proud of you. Never give up. I believe in you. You are loved.

It’s taking you a little longer because you aren't lying, using people, cheating, manipulating, or selling your soul. Don't rush anything. The slower the process, the deeper the roots, and the stronger the values. It's the journey that matters, not the destination.

If you have an authoritarian Indian relative, translate their words into German and shout back at them. It's terrifying, but makes everything much clearer.

Social media creates a situation where we know almost everything that's happening in almost every area of the world. We're exposed to suffering, injustice, and trauma almost every time we open our apps.

Is it unreasonable to glare villainously at people who make Zoom calls in cafes while I'm trying to write?

Personally I think wanting to watch two men of any age fighting is kind of dysfunctional.
