I'm back :)

Hiatuses are essential to my mental health, even more so when you're constantly inundated with repetitive content. We're at a point where most of what we see endlessly thumbing up and down our screens, one after the other are unreasonable facsimiles of what's deemed popular. That or we're forced to cyclicly interact with whatever the algorithm feeds us—neither are great options. What always rang true to supplement your creativity is to go against the grain. Post to your leisure, post what gives you a contented smile, and don't think too hard. 

On the flip side exercise social media dissociation, try to leave more comments below content you love/support to boost engagement, and work on how you craft IG stories. Weirdos like me care about sh!t like that. Bonus if you post on TikTok.

I also began writing a short memoir on my experiences being raised in the projects of Brownsville, Brooklyn. The first 10 pages are HEAT. What should I name it? I'm aiming to publish sometime next year, preferably when it's warm out.

Merry Christmas!
