This conversation about callings (or absence thereof) reminds me of an older post of mine.

I just wanted to reply again to let you know Iām really enjoying Always Dolls! Their crafts are so darn clever, I just want to make everything, haha. They just published a video on making a typewriter (a la Wednesday) and itās SO cute. Thank you again!

I feel like all self-help books eventually say the exact same thing:
Start, keep going, and donāt stop until you achieve it.

I am so sorry. It happened to me when I was a minor and I was medicated for years for something I did not have. I did not feel joy for most of my teens and also detoxed unsafely. There is another side to this. It took me decades to trust psychiatric drugs again. The full range of emotions is a hard thing to handle again but beautiful too. Thanks for sharing.

Iām so glad! It is a pretty great channel, and Iām always amazed by what they come up with. Especially because the original American Girl sets are always so expensive, and a good number of the Always Dolls projects are inspired by them, so you can make your own sets at a much more reasonable price.

You deserved better than to have had 15 years stolen from you by a doctor who responds to a young personās anger by medicalizing it.

Itās been a while! Nearly 2 months. Iām actually doing better than I was a month ago (when I started this post), but I figured Iād leave it raw. Writing about health, disability pride, grief, and vulnerability.

Itās been a while since I bloggd, but then found this nearly forgotten piece sitting in my notes that I never got around to posting:
I fear getting too into PKM, I have no intention on being someone who spends more time optimizing their notes than reading / writing them, but I see these question pop up enough from new users that I felt like I needed to de-influence people away from the crazy workflows which get suggested after searching āHow to use Obsidian/Notion/Whateverā

you keep writing exactly how you want to, and exactly how you need to. i love what you have to say.
last year you wrote this post Impact | eladnarra's site
you wrote this post when i left my job and was realizing work wasnāt going to work for me any more. my first fiance had left me (iāve had two now, fuck) and i felt no purpose, no calling. but your post showed me that my blog and my website could be my calling. that iād always find company if i was willing to share my story
i donāt know your day to day. i donāt know how tough your life truly is. but i love every time you put a post here. and i wish you the best, however you find a way to do it, to keep your fire lit and to keep going. you have things people need to hear, and iām grateful iāve gotten to hear some of it

I am trying to get back in the habit of blogging, and sometimes thatās thoughtful writing and sometimes a slice of life. Today itās a slice of a life because when I am spiralling thatās what I like to read and look at, like what are people doing? I need to know people are leaving their houses or seeing friends or carrying on because the news is so heavy it can paralyze me. And today is okay, good even!

I like your advice! I think you did a good job setting the tone to avoid complicated or jargony PKMā¢ stuff. And I think you justified the extra complexity the academic citation section deserves.
