Its extremely cool that the city/state is helpin me out like this after my shock treatment, my brain is fragile like a fresh kitten or a recent egg and sometimes it's tough for me to always see my doctor or consume my brain potions while I'm busy tryin to run a clothing store or a lil chain of head shops or manage a small restaurant etc

then all of a sudden im climbin up the Verrazano bridge castin unfuckable spells at the nypd woofmen with their claws and biters and I have to chill at RUMC for a couple of months and get Thorazine pokes in the butt :( i try to be healthy and safe but sometimes things get weird and my mental clarity becomes as lovely as my posts. I am very tired of this life :(

i guess they got tired of it too. they never really helped me out before but this time I had been drinkin extra long and fast and doin the kinda of drugs where when the cops find the drugs one of the cops pulls out a big knife and cuts open the packaging and sticks his knife in the drugs and then licks the tip of the knife and goes "pure uncut afghani powder, boys, $100000000 on the street easy" which i never did before and for some reason they have way more help for you if you do drugs too :shrug: a place to stay and medicine and doctors and food and stuff is super helpful. Im in a really cool building in the upper west side right by riverside drive and id never have been able to live somewhere this fancy on my own. there are lots of other strange crazies here too. we're all pals. it's like the forums except we can share meals and our avs are just our own selves and when we say mean things about each other it isn't very often and it is usually after the person leaves the room. pretty cool imo.

I don't tell the doctors about the forums. I'm afraid they wouldn't understand and tell me its unhealthy and reinforces my delusional thinking. I'm also sometimes worried that the forums don't even exist at all and I just imagine them every day :(

Anyway I don't pay rent but I did get my weekly stipend on friday and i bought some pretzel m&ms for me and Ganesh to share and some paint because an old friend showed one of the partners at his law firm this quick lil painting a goon asked me to do here a year or so ago of Stone Cold Stephen Austen giving a Stone Cold Stunner to the prophet Muhammad while referee Ganesh and audience members Jesus and Buddha looked on excitedly and the gentleman liked it so much that he commissioned me to paint a larger version for him for two hundred and sixty dollhairs :) I am blessed, truly.

350 for a nice place in a house that's literally 1 year old with brand spanking new poo poo in it. There's 2 roomies but they're cool.

This will likely be my final month here though I'm probably moving to a house.

You can't say cockateils are dumb and then suggest a parakeet. Parakeets are so dumb they might as well be bugs.

There really isn't and I lucked out with her being a total stranger with an open room but also being a great and normal person :buddy:

In your house a cockatiel can run 15-20 or so. Apparently they don't last as long in the wild.

We had nonstick pans only when we had cockateils and they didn't give a gently caress. If you were cookin rice in the kitchen they'd chew through the metal bars of their cage to come get some. They loved rice.

Is it a girl. We never tried to teach the cockateils to talk but supposedly the guys are a lot better at it.

We had two girls. They sure liked to listen attentively if you would whistle them a tune.

This is the best I ever saw a cockateil do

Usually they relentlessly remix things you teach them into cockatiel brand cover versions.

One of ours learned to poop on napkins and she'd posture a certain way if there wasn't a napkin around for her to dook on.

The other one once saw her shadow, freaked out, and leapt into a wall stunning herself for about twenty minutes. Dumbass.

who was the goon that was there filming who had "organized" the egg eating event? it seems like he could have at least owned his part in getting smash mouth to eat the eggs. some self confidence, you know?

instead i remember him seeming flustered when guy ferrari and smash mouth asked why exactly smashmouth had to eat the eggs. did he not forsee he might be asked that question?
