I wrote a little something. I’ve been finding myself increasingly dissatisfied with any platform, especially the visual nature of most. These are some musings based on some recent experiences, predominantly re-reading Open Water and how, when I read it the first time, the book made me re-evaluate much of the experiences in my life and the relationship I had established between myself, my body and the world.

I might move to a blog permanently. Though I enjoy the hybrid space of tumblr, I don’t feel much for visual aesthetics anymore and find the formatting of predominantly written posts on tumblr to be cumbersome. We’ll see.

I feel seen. And mocked. And understood.

He’s a ten but he keeps buying disgustingly long books and ridiculously priced non-fiction books
