I am sad and lonely and melancholic, and I miss seeing people and giving hugs and petting the family cats and …

I’m having a bad brain day, friends. Send good vibes please? https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="💜" title="Purple heart" aria-label="Emoji: Purple heart">

(I keep deleting then reposting a thread about feelings, but this is what’s really under it all.)

(And yes, the fact that I tweet this rather than reaching out to friends/family directly is a massive issue, and one I’m working on, but sharing here feels easier because I feel like I’m not asking for attention or taking up space.

Aren’t brains great, I ask sarcastically.)

Thank you all for the good vibes, much appreciated.

I’ve been curled up on the sofa with some new emerald-coloured thread and trying to avoid screens for a bit. Hope you’re all having a good day. https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="💜" title="Purple heart" aria-label="Emoji: Purple heart">

If you would like to see many excellent cats and doggos, the mentions on this thread have been very lovely.

I’m a bit calmer this evening, and off for some fresh air now it’s getting cooler. https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="💜" title="Purple heart" aria-label="Emoji: Purple heart"> https://twitter.com/alexwlchan/status/1264867195735212032">https://twitter.com/alexwlcha...
