Hi Mary. Thanks for letting me know, I appreciate it. Would it be helpful for me to delete the post?
Writers, a question. I consider myself both a mood writer. I usually have several projects in my rotation and I use songs, books, sometimes even food and certain settings to immerse myself in the mood of one of these projects.
Mood writers, what do you do to get "in the mood?"

Some of my friends and community members at UT speak on their experiences here.

Exactly! It triggers a full sensory memory experience, even the emotional experience I was having when reading.
Is there a psychological term for how you associate reading certain books with the physical spaces and times you were reading them in that orient you to the story even after you read them?
anyway so i’m gonna go 🌿✨

My friend and I were brainstorming how to combat the toxicity of "looksmaxxing" and other shit like that and she said, "how about napmaxxing?" We said we're gonna call it REMmaxxing to trick fitness/wellness folks into resting.
Thank you friend! 💖

It's something I have to remind myself time and again. Being informed is vital. Resistence is vital. But life affirming moments like that are what sustain me against despair.
In the evening I took my Dad to see his old band play on the patio of a local spot. Watching him cut up with his friends, watching the sun set over Austin as they played beautiful Latin jazz fusion, did something for my heart.
I spent a lot of yesterday panic spiraling about the president threatening nuclear annihilation of Iran, as I'm sure so many others did as well. I felt so anxious I almost canceled my plans.
A distraught Toad tells Frog that the kite, which is bent a bit out of shape, is a joke. Frog looks placidly on, a Zen master in the face of adversity. From "The Kite" In *Days with Frog and Toad*
