A black cat sits comfortably on top of a pink couch. Below her is a jumble of blankets and pillows. Her yellow eyes are partially open, her front legs are folded under.

I don't remember my experience with lithium specifically, but in my experience when it comes to these kinds of drugs, it usually takes 3-6 weeks to get used to them and for that kind of side effect to go away. glad it's helping your mood!

yeah I'm a fatty-fat-fat-fat, and my cholesterol, BP, etc are all normal. In the last few years, my cholesterol has been a bit high. weight doesn't really tell you much on its own. my doctor's office asks now before they weigh you, which I love.

Oh yeah I forgot about Fake Melania! I definitely believe some of her appearances were/are fake.

And even though I know the process for creating the various parts of the internet is well documented, sometimes I do believe aliens gave us this technology in exchange for human testing in the Treaty of Giada. Tech feels like it moved too rapidly for humans to handle.

I think Lindbergh was at fault for his baby's death or at least involved in the kidnapping. I believe the idea that he hid the baby as a prank on his wife (he had played many shitty pranks on her), but then something happened to the baby.

Must be. I can actually read in my dreams but even so yeah, I can't read a touchscreen in my dreams. (sentence that's never been said before)

Thank you for saying that! It was interesting because he didn't sound malicious, just like.....not something he'd ever thought of before.

Thank you! I was at the point where I had found a fishing lure that looked *sort of* like one of the fish and was trying to think of ways to remove the sharp parts. These fish will be treasured.

I was uncomfortable because I haven't gotten negative comments on my pins before, but I wear them to be somewhat provocative. Really, I was mad at myself for not being better prepared to respond. But also I hope that it did make that man stop and think, even if for a minute.

Conversation changed topics. I continued to help him. As he got ready to leave, he looked at my pin again and said, "What did you call it?" I explained again, and he seemed thoughtful. Finally he went on his way, but the whole interaction was around 40 minutes.

I was taken aback. But I latched onto the "words change" part. I said that's the nature of language, all languages change, here are some other examples. He asked, perhaps rhetorically, if there's any language that doesn't change. I suggested Esperanto, but he said he didn't know what that was.

He got annoyed and said (paraphrase), "Well, some things should remain hidden. I hate how words change. Like the word 'queer.' It means something that's bad, why are people using it now?"

so I repeated what I said and jokingly added that I like the older term, "manic depressive" and also explained I wear it to help reduce stigma about mental illness, to show that I am "crazy" but also a nice "normal" person.

While I was gathering information for him, I noticed he was peering forward, trying to get a better look at my pins. One was a progress pride flag. "Are you trying to read my pin?" I asked. "It says 'I have bipolar.'"

He asked me to repeat; I wasn't sure if maybe he didn't understand the phrase,

A mutual's skeet about mental health reminded me of this:

I wear two pins every day at work, one related to LGBTI+ and one related to mental health.

An elderly man came to the desk. He was new to the area and had questions, but it was also clear he just wanted to talk. #mentalhealth #bipolar

I've dreamed of my cellphone, of taking and even making calls. But I don't think I looked at the screen to make the call. It just happened via dream logic.
