That year was a real shitshow personally, spent half of it in jammies because I was so sick. No reason to think this year will be better but nonetheless I will trudge ahead with grim determination nevertheless. If the world sucks and life is suffering then every day we endure is a victory over creation. Happy New Year!!

I slept through the new year so hopefully that means it will be good. Though I think I also slept through the last two so I dunno. Happy new year regardless! I started as I mean to go on, arguing with people on the internet.

Happy new year from a perennial lurker. Given I've started it with COVID that I managed to catch from my parents after 22 months of rampant paranoia, it can only get better from here. Right?
