I'm going to go mad

 I am of insufficient emotional caliber to face these present times. My obsessive tendencies, sour disposition, fear of the other humans, and weak sense of self leave me a combative fool unable to properly and confidently articulate even his most firmly-held beliefs in an argument. 


I feel as if I am driven insane every time I look into current affairs, which is to be frank all of the time. Curse my Twitter (not X, never X) addiction. 


I have long been a critic of The Left, and their dearest desire, to undermine the principle of the nation-state through total ideological warfare on America, makes me sick to my stomach.  But antifascism as a guiding principle means I always must be ever more guarded against the depredations of the right, and these past months have driven me insane as everything I have ever believed in has been sent to the shredder on the whims of a couple of wealthy morons and their little toady, an ugly soul named JD Vance. 


Kill me, kill me, I beg of you.

A 'soft' Third World War

      Part of me wonders if in the future, historians will categorise the 2020s as a "soft" third World War. Not the fully-open fighting of the first two but also far hotter than the Cold War between America and Soviet Russia. I am tempted to place the beginning of this at the very opening of the decade, with the Trump-ordered US strike on Iranian general and terror ringleader Qasem Soleimani on 3 January 2020, but either the Russian invasion of Ukraine on 24 February 2022 or the Hamas attack against Israel on 7 October 2023 is perhaps a more logical starting point for what I now believe could probably be labeled an era of open great power conflict.       Since the beginning of the decade, we have seen Russia instigate the largest land war in Europe since 1945; Hamas' attack on 7 October; the Israeli response that has escalated to a full genocide in Gaza, with related fighting in Lebanon seeing the gradual collapse of Hezbollah as a serious f...

I had a good day today

 I am, frankly, a rather lazy person. I intended to write a short journal entry tonight in a diary I've not entered anything into in at least a month. However, I left this downstairs and it is now nearly midnight. I do not wish to get out of my bed. I have settled on the solution of using this blog, which I use less frequently than even my diary, to write a vague summary of today's events so that they are recorded somewhere outside the labyrinthine caverns of memory in my brain. Today I had to be at work at 7:30, and I arrived at time. I clocked out at 9:45 to go to a psychiatrist appointment, where my new doctor and I further discussed the new medications she has me on and her suspicion I am on the autism spectrum. I returned to work shortly before eleven in the morning. I worked until 4 PM that afternoon; originally I was scheduled to work until 4:30 but my manager said, unprompted, I could take off half an hour early and after confirming he really was fine with this, I accep...

Focusing and ADD

Something has happened these past couple of semesters, or the “2023-24 school year,” or whatever the hell you want to call it.  I can’t fucking work. I feel like I’m losing my ability to concentrate. This is my senior year of highschool (the 2020-21 school year, when everything was on Zoom) all over again. It deeply embarrasses me to admit this, but the very idea of sitting down and working causes a great anxiety to well up in me. I hate saying that, it makes me sound like some Tumblr theatre kid who uses mental health as an excuse to avoid all sorts of responsibility. (Think of the current discourse where entitled children larping as leftists claim they have a desperate need to DoorDash instead of buying frozen dinners because of anxiety or something…) For me, working with ADD is an experience comparable to walking before suddenly hitting a wall. The wall is the anxiety associated with focusing on whatever task I’m trying to complete. This wall is not impassable, it simply require...
