        Somehow, every time I look awefull I tell myself I look great and everytime I actually look great I tell myself I look awefull. It has happened way too often that people asked me if I was sick or not feeling well, when I thought I looked great. And whenever I felt I look like shit, I've gotten the most compliments...

          A cashier at Walmart yesterday said about herself "I'm so smart"

          I replied "SMRT".

                    “I am a good person.”

                    My Catholic upbringing really ingrained in me the idea that I’m a fundamentally bad person. Turns out, even if you deconvert, those thought patterns will still plague you. So I have to remind myself often that just because I’m not Catholic or who my parents would like me to be, that doesn’t mean I’m doing anything wrong.

                          I'm not good, intelligent, interesting enough for anyone or anything.

                          Other people can be proud or confident. It'll just make me arrogant.

                          As a tall bald white man, I scare everyone.

                          I need to have more normal interests.

                          I want to do more things I like, regardless.

                          I still haven't made up for being a shitty kid/teenager, over 20 years later. Be more selfless.

                          Don't ask for things, especially help.

                          I could go on.

                            Genius. You are an amazing person.
                            Reminds me of a Kurt Vonnugut quote....

                            "Hello babies. Welcome to Earth. It's hot in the summer and cold in the winter. It's round and wet and crowded. On the outside, babies, you've got a hundred years here. There's only one rule that I know of, babies-"God damn it, you've got to be kind."

                              Not much of anything, good or bad, at least I don't think so. I've been on the float for some time.

                                        "I wanna go home."

                                        I'm not sure why, this phrase has become a mental tic of mine. It makes abosolutely no sense because there is no sense in which I am not home. I live in one of my childhood houses.
