How indeed!
It's election day in Sweden and I just voted for the first ever time in my life! I have a lot of things to rant about this election and politics in general...
Also I mentioned SD without introducing them, it's currently the third largest party in Sweden, believed soon to be the second largest, their main agenda is immigrants bad, and they are Nazis.
How fun!

I try to build connections with others just to make it less likely that I end up falling into a void. Because every link, strong or not so strong, would help holding me in place, like a spider web without a spider waiting to eat you, which is nice.

My brain was only 50% capacity while recording, turns out it's one of those meh days before I get my period.
It's hilariously noticeable, please enjoy an authentic recording of me navigating through my brain fog.

I encourage everyone to seek professional mental health support if possible, but I also believe there's something more to be done.
At a point, it stops being about mental health, but about politics.

Painkillers don't really kill the pain, they just make it easier for us to stay ignorant and avoid addressing the problem.
This can't last forever, maybe next time we choose to take the pain, instead of painkillers.

...this one is still in English tho.
I speak baby Uyghurche, heavily self censored Mandarin, functional English and barely started Swedish. They all work differently in my brain, and I often lose one or two of them when I'm low.
