  • Im not very in tune with my feelings, so it came as somewhat of a surprise to me during a high stress period where I had defend myself on Zoom at work under duress in front of a panel with an audience of over 200 people in the chat… where I could feel my skin tingling and my vision starting to fuzz up at the corners, and could barely hear myself talk.

    It took all that I had to breathe slowly and calmly, and a colleague later told me that I seemed fine in my presentation.

    Someone can seem okay on the outside, but what theyre experiencing on the inside might be some crazy thing that just does not show.

    On the one hand, nice to not worry about food and a home cooked meal is always good.

    On the other hand, when you have no agency in what time you wake up or what you eat, or even how you spend your evenings without anyone’s judgement, you literally regress back into a moody teenager.

    I’m in my mid thirties and yet I feel like a child still. It’s actually worrying me.

    “Jesus… when you say ‘get me off this fucking cross, so help me God’… is that a test? Or should we actually get you off the cross?”

    ( More ranting and screaming and moaning )

    The disciples nod wisely at their leader’s self-sacrifice for… their sins maybe? And he will always be immortal in their hearts, because they’ve already eaten him or something.

    The disciples go home, wiser and holier and warily eyeing each other in confirmation of the deeper meaning behind their saviour’s last words: “Guys, please, I’m not fucking around, get me down, please, I’m so fucking thirsty… Jesus fucking christ”
