Apologies for my abscence.
🕑 Added 2022-10-16 05:16:57 +0000 UTCI spent most of September taking care of my dad, and then towards the end of September I started having panic attacks at the threat of Nuclear War... again. It was... paralyzing. Which I think is the point of this saber rattling, and that pisses me off. I'm feeling better now, and although I'm still scared, I'm going to continue my work because fuck that guy. You know the one. That spite means I'm getting work done at a nominal pace again.
On the upside, I got my braces taken off and my teeth are mostly fixed and I applied for that Student Loan forgiveness.
Between Student Loan forgiveness, and the prospect of Armageddon. I think I'm going to relax my anus a bit about distributing Toph Heavy Part 3. Even though I'm nowhere near done. Life's too short and it's taken too long. I'm going to start posting completed pages. Here it will be whenever I finish them and feel comfortable posting. Pubicly it will be once a week as soon as that loan relief goes through.

The rational part of my brain already knows all of this. But this is sort of like hypochondria in that it isn't about what the rational part knows. I always extrapolate to the worst-case scenario. And that worst-case scenario potentially means someone's ego getting everyone else killed. That happens on small scales, and it can happen on larger ones too. My saving grace is that my spite is stronger than my fear and I refuse to let that fucker ruin this current moment because of what he could potentially do in the future.

Great to hear you’re alright! Was a tad worried about the radio silence but mainly just cus I jump to “worst-case-scenario.” While panic attacks tend not to be rational, here is a (IMHO) good introduction to Nuclear Deterrence, and why the “Saber-Rattling” is just that: saber rattling. https://acoup.blog/2022/03/11/collections-nuclear-deterrence-101/
