July 27: California is burning
Redding, a town of almost 100,000 people, is burning today in Northern California. Hundreds have lost their homes, a few have lost their lives. The pictures are devastating - this article has quite a few. When I look at the pictures, I can understand why people could picture hell as a burning, charred place.

July 26: When We Don’t Want to Write
Tonight I really don't want to be writing. I've been thinking about what to write about and then I did some searching on the internet for ideas and literally everything made me think "ugh, I don't want to write about that." They aren't even bad topics, I just don't want to do it. So what … Continue reading July 26: When We Don’t Want to Write
July 25: I’ve made a terrible mistake
Oh my god it's 2:43 in the morning and I'm still awake because I was doing art stuff and then I decided to watch a movie late at night.

I was totally sure about who I am going to vote for in the primary... until today when I read a thread written by people whose politics I really respect. Ugh.

July 22: there are stupid questions.
I wasn't feeling inspired by anything in particular, so I googled "journal topics," which led to a bunch of websites with questions for teachers to give students. I started reading one that had some pretty basic questions, but then, it got weird. Here are some of the questions (with my answers). What if cows gave … Continue reading July 22: there are stupid questions.
July 21: Explaining extremism a little
I have always been fascinated with extremism, probably because I don't have a long enough attention span to get too extreme, although I'm not really sure. Maybe some of you think I'm extreme. But I've never really understood why anyone would be a member of a hate group or put that much time into actively … Continue reading July 21: Explaining extremism a little
July 20: unpopular opinions
I liked listing yesterday, and I've seen some twitter threads of unpopular opinions lately, so I'm going to list a few of mine: Plain pepperoni pizza isn't good. On top of that, pizza cut into squares is stupid. Not every kid has to go to college to live a happy, productive, fulfilling life. Reading for … Continue reading July 20: unpopular opinions
