That was wrong. Going with the flow is much easier.
I'm trying to flow, but I'm running into river rocks, too, it seems. |

| I love surreal humor, much like my father, but I also love dry wit, much like my mother. I've teetered on both for as long as I can remember trying to write "comedic" pieces. I've found, however, or at least some griefer on the internet has brought to my attention, that I might take goofy,... |

I think I've not developed my "self" as much as I've developed an idealized self that NEEDS to do certain things in order to survive (like get a good job and make lots of good products)...
It's horribly broken, I know, but I don't know yet how to fix it. |

| I've read people before, but I think it's not so much the ability to read them as much as what you interpret from your readings. I used to pride myself on having a good moral compass, but for some reason, I've not let my compass guide me to safety as of recent... "Oooh, they're not that trustwo... |

That's understandable, but in that case, wouldn't it be better to find help in that situation? |

I think mostly how I believe the tropes of cartoons and fantasy could easily intertwine; how it's pretentious to think that only children should have exposure to imagination, while adult entertainment is dark and gritty in lieu of a... |

One of my mother's friends suggests a kind of putty which can get into nooks and crannies and pick up dust. I haven't tried it personally yet, but it seems like the kind of substance which gets the job done.  |

| I generally dislike that mindset unless it's thoroughly justified due to disability. One who couldn't move could at least use their voice in some job. |

| The subject of fetish has been of interest to me since, well, the internet has exposed the world to more fetishes than one can shake a stick at, so to speak :wink:, but recently I've felt there's a correlation between fetishism of certain aspects, especially of fantastical scenarios, and autistic-li... |

I even had a brain scan one time when I was at my worst and feeling foggy, but nothing out of the ordinar... |

| Autism has many variants, but not on TV from what I see. What I want to see the most is a portrayal of autism as something that isn't just a brainiac-type personality. Autism isn't just a brain thing, but a brain-body relationship issue that sometimes leads to very physically powerful people. Some m... |

I've said to myself over the years that I love pink, but hate dresses -- I love playing in the mud, but hate having lingering grime on me -- I love romance, but not glurge -- I love power tools, but not the idea of basing my livelihood around them. I'm not sure how much of this is ... |

| I write because I love to be able to put what I see in my head down into words. I used to only put them in pictures, but I took the idiom "a picture is worth 1000 words" literally and figured I should at least be able to express 100 words about what I am imagining. |
