I don't know what it is about this month, but I'm just downright angry all of the time. Angry, and more importantly, very bitter. Maybe it's having very little in a time of giving, and getting stuck in patterns of comparisons (the death of joy).
- They/Them
A real "we've got a nephew" of graphic design and illustration, mental illness held at bay by a very nice vegetable garden and cats.
Lapsed printmaker, you should ask me about it and I'll be very weird

It's a bad time. At least there's a sort of togetherness among those of us who struggle through this time of year. 🫂
I've heard it said that in the northern hemisphere Christmas is just a device to counteract seasonal winter depression but the fact that so many people I know struggle with the trappings of the holiday season is proof that's crap or flat out doesn't work.
I recommend having yourself a lemon meringue pie. I dunno if it will solve anything in the longterm but at least you'll have a nice pie to enjoy.
I used to get angry, now I just feel kind of resigned and tired.
🫂 the patterns of comparisons are treacherous and troubled seas. i know this too.
i don't got good words. i just hope we can carve out some space for joy together.
