this little voice inside my head, saying: “why don’t we celebrate women that are blond haired and blue eyed?”  Because they’re already celebrated all the time—it happens so often that it’s become normalized, so you might think that, but, if you’re paying attention, you know much better.  “I couldn’t agree more.”  I was stepping […]

     Ursula was saying something about working class families  and redefining the democratic party—which needed to be done.  I had no tolerance for democrats that stood for nothing but getting reelected by keeping their centrist corporate elitists happy.  Something also needed to be done about partisanship within, and lifetime appointments to, the supreme court.  The

     Everything is feeling kind of sketchy   i don’t know why, exactly, but every time i had to talk to somebody, a mental health doctor, i mean, i practically felt myself relapsing into a former state—and that was very unpleasant for me.  It’s like someone was moving things around under the hood of my car

     It’s okay if you don’t love me   how about that?  was she telling me it’s ok to be gay, or was she telling me that she’d be okay if i didn’t really love her?  But of course I loved my Ursula—I just didn’t know I could be with her—if, that is, she ever got

     what do you need, right here, right now?  i didn’t need anything—although I got a spot of pepper in my throat, and that usually meant I was talking too much through my throat—or Ursula was disagreeing with me and or telling me no to something; there wasn’t much i could do but try and

     i feared a little . . . that i might go down in history as a tramp; i couldn’t say for sure whether she was speaking in the perfect or imperfect past—but, considering the possibilities of an affair, i could understand where she was coming from.  An affair, i think, would do damage to

     Are you waiting for them?  but i didn’t see myself as waiting—i was actively doing something most of the time, i didn’t believe that Christ was going to come to earth and reign over us, and i didn’t believe that this was just a dream before waking up in heaven.  the things i was

     That was fast   and, indeed, applying wave properties to my thoughts could get a little tedious at times—but so could everything that involved a learning curve.  We want, don’t we, to speak German instantaneously, something that I spent a few years on (taking a three hour class once a week) while learning almost nothing. 

     I was playing with a characteristic amplitude that might serve as a password or a pin that i could use when i wanted to check my messages others intended strictly for us.  For example, I could hear Ursula saying something (that I’ll keep private for safety reasons), and I turned up the sound, so

     I’d been getting better results—and i might be more willing to listen to Ursula in real life—if i didn’t project her voice all the time.  So I decided I could use Ursula’s voice mainly in the time that we were writing, and, when doing other things, I could use my voice alone—or even go
