Generator Land: demon chum This sort of thing just annoys me. That doesn't mean it's bad.....The texture of it bothers me though.. The tedious thickness. My description of what bothers me about it may make no particular sense (because I don't see many, if any, people talking about the texture...

Today, May 10th, is Mother’s Day in México, there’s no school, and it’s a national holiday for many, except for restaurants. The ex didn’t take the kids to buy me a present and I resent him for that. He didn’t do it for my birthday either… after 18 years of me always doing something for him to...

This is probably going to be a little long as I introduce you all to myself. I graduated high school in June of 2013. I wasn't quite sure what to do with myself at that point. I'd applied to two colleges in New York, Syracuse and Cornell. Syracuse accepted me, but turned out to be too expensive...

Aspergers & Autism
I have a PLATONIC friend in the building that I've known for almost 2 years. We have things in common, like music and computers and really strange senses of humor, he's a great cook, so we've been eating together for the whole time, etc. He's an old hippie and but there's an ounce or two of...

It seems to me that Asperger's and depression just go hand-in-hand, like peanut butter and jelly, or perhaps more like rusty tacks in your shoes and pain. But you never hear about depression getting better; at least not in Aspies. I wonder why that is? I have a hypothesis, somewhat broadened...

My family was one in which the women were strong and independent figures. My mother's mother was a psychiatrist in the days when that was highly unusual. My mother was also a psychiatrist. One sister is a psychiatrist and the other is a Physician's Assistant. So I've had a lot of role models of...

Don't worry, this is a short one. I saw a unicorn today. No really, I mean it, an actual factual unicorn. I'm not even speaking metaphorically; I'm talking about a unicorn, four legs and hooves and a tail and everything. Only thing it was missing was a horn. Don't know why. But who cares? I...

I wrote my main character as how i would be if i didnt suppress my entire personality. Mind you this character is based on a dream(it was very vivid and thrilling). I often dream of myself as a male in my dreams. I am also nonbinary/demi. so its not unusual that i would base the main character...

Very often the idea for a generator comes from seeing one that I thought could be better or more interesting if it were done differently. It's not so much a wish to copy what I've seen as it is to make the idea one that I like, instead of what I saw. Sometimes the result is very different from...

I’m separated and so are you. I want to move forward, start anew. You want your wife to continue fighting. But she just can’t. She doesn’t have any strength left. You see me and you see your wife. You see my ex and you see yourself. You want me to go back to him, because that’s what you...

"It's very difficult that kids that age know what they want to be when they grow up" said my dad, sixty-seven, when I was telling him that my daughter, thirteen, already knew what she wanted to do when she grows up. Today, in the locker of the pool where I go swimming, I heard two women...

Don't get me wrong, high self-esteem is important. It is absolutely integral to your sense of well-being. But what you need is a sense a real sense of high self-esteem. A secure sense of high self-esteem. "But Gritches, how does one achieve such a thing?" What a handsome question. First...

I've really never talked about this? Oh well, better late than never: I see it every day, people are caught up in this trap of worrying about "self-esteem". Let me explain the borderline pseudo-psychological bullcrap that is the modern understanding of self-esteem, and when I'm done I'll...

It’s been a while since my last update. I’ve been working really hard (surprise!). Too hard, really. Because of the flu season, a few of my coworkers were sick. Since we’re understaffed already, I ended up covering for two coworkers. Which means thrice the normal amount of patients (and...
