never be so clever, you forget to hit post

My drafts folder is a wasteland of posts that I never posted because I kept obsessing over whether they were polished enough or complete enough or ready to be sent out into the world, and it’s silly because… who cares? This isn’t a Serious Publication, this is a Fun and Light Place For Me To Express My Thoughts and it doesn’t need to be perfect.

I mean, it’s not like I won’t ever talk about Serious Things, but I don’t have a massive following, I’m not a professional writer, I’m not trying to hit a word quota, I’m not looking for clicks, and I’ve been trying to shed the toxic cloak of perfectionism for years now. We’re on a rock, that is overheating, spinning through space, humanity is going feral, who cares if your thoughts aren’t 100% coherent, ya know?

I’m going to try to just… write and post and not overthink it.

Prepare for a bunch of backlogged posts to come through, pretend they were posted in a timely fashion when they would have been slightly more relevant. ;)
