Best thing I did this year. Forces me to work with a limited library of records, CDs, and cassettes, which makes me learn new music outside of an algorithm. I have joined Ann Arbor’s wcbn and it’s a great third space and a community full of different ages and life experiences. So wholesome and a great way to unwind!!
that is, free writing 2-3 pages right when you wake up. i am spiritually, psychologically, creatively transformed by morning pages. you think it’ll just help you creatively but i feel much less in my head and more out in the world after dumping my thoughts out onto the page.
I have to take myself on a walk or I’ll get the zoomies late at night I have to drink water even tho I’m like a cat and can go days without it… I have to eat more than pasta and pastries or I’ll feel decrepid I have to be stimulated or I’ll binge real housewives til my eyes hurt… I’ll be anxious, feel negatively towards loved ones, and think of existential reasons I feel the way I do but for the most part these unmet necessities underly my agonizing condition
