It cracks me up that 20hrs went by, and no one responded ๐ That's a really good joke
I don't really understand the question. What specifically are you wondering about?
If you're asking how my mind is doing, I'm not sure. If you're asking about the trajectory of my life, I'm not sure. If you're asking me how my body feels, I'm not sure. If you're asking how my day is going, then ask the day. I guess regardless of the spirit of the question, the answer is that I'm not sure.
If you don't care and are actually trying to spark up conversation, it would be more helpful to introduce a topic so that I could engage in it.
I'm triggered lol
I'm good. How about you? looks away uncomfortably
Well, it has yet to come alive. No worries.

btw. i believe that i am actually quite sure about my inner states, just that i don't want to boil it down to simple verbal language because that doesn't fit it. I would need to use a different language. Give me the right music and i will dance it, or let me get my drum and i will drum it!
