hi friends — i just logged back into this account for the first time in years. i’m so much older now, with a long-term partner, my own place, and a university-degree-halfway-complete. i mean, i still can’t drive, but that doesn’t matter. i just want to say that reading back on all this stuff reminded me of how much of a kid i was. a sad kid with a morbid preoccupation with death, but still a kid looking for ways to figure out the world. these were the musings of a child waiting for the “better” part of “it gets better.” i teach art to kids about the same age i was when i started this account. it’s so strange reading all this back. i was really bullied at school and social media was my escape (in the good and bad way). it’s reassuring to see, especially now. i’m still fucking clueless, but at least i know kid-me would be excited to see where i am now.
