Crashing into Life Part.1
A conversation about me crashing based off my own anxiety I’m never at ease, always in a hurry, anxious, uptight almost. Consistently thinking and at times that thought process can cause crashes almost instantly.

So you voted, Now what do you Do?
All year I've witnessed people discuss voting and its importance. And all year I've rolled my eyes. Watching the millions of social media posts and commercials about how imperative voting is this year and how not voting is "voting as well". The conversation of the "lesser of two evils". and the overarching cataclysm that has been this two-party dominated system under the succubus of capitalism. Now that we are closing in on this election, and people have voted they seem to have some sort of confidence that they did the right thing.

Showing emotions as a Man
I've always been intune with my emotions as a man. Growing up, I was constantly considered a “cry baby.” I was very in tune with my emotions and wasn't afraid to let them out. I recall getting kicked out of class in sixth grade because I couldn’t sing Pokémon songs. I cried as if someone died; it was embarrassing, but I couldn’t control my emotions.

I Watched a Spider Not Kill a Fly Today
This morning I was taking my morning poop in my bathroom when I witnessed the most peculiar sight. I saw a spider not kill a fly today. I witnessed this extraordinary experience while enjoying my guilty pleasure getting lost in my thoughts and ambitions for the day without my cellular device of mass anxiety.
