Bujo for spoonies?
Punk bujo?
I'm an effort to put my life back together and recover from a major illness and massive emotional losses etc., I've started using some of the techniques I have seen in bullet journalling.
The problem with all the bujo ideas I see on Pinterest etc. is that they seem to put way too much emphasis on the aesthetic aspect of it. Like I get if people find the artistic side of bullet journalling rewarding, but I have limited manual dexterity and a tremor, so my pages are never going to be pretty. And I have limited energy and time, so I just can't put that much time and energy into creating something pretty. Also, all those flourishes and stuff take up a lot of space that I could be using for practical content! My tremor keeps me from being able to write small or neatly, so I need a lot of room. Like, I want my pages to be pleasing to the eye, but that's for usability reasons.
I also am really turned off my the obsession with productivity that I see in a lot of online bujo. It all seems to be about achieving more! Pushing yourself harder! Meeting goals! All these trackers and stuff seem to be designed to set up expectations for you to live up to. This is the exact opposite of what I'm striving for. I'm trying to learn to accept my limitations, stop pushing myself so hard, value myself even if I don't fill in all the little boxes
So I'm wondering, is there a spoonie bujo community? Like, bujo that recognizes that we don't all have the capacity to make our journals look like Live Laugh Love decals? That we don't all have the time/energy/motivation to fill in a load of trackers every day? Bujo that is badass instead of beautiful? Punk bujo?

today's [ although the day has almost ended ] [28th] marked my first year anniversary of the dgm/exorcist au! I'm kinda glad I haven't given up on this au even though it has rotten my brain with some dark content I make with my own mind...
[ This piece will forever be my greatest accidental achievement...posted this on Twitter for the 3 yrs of the lads collaboration, barely posted on that site, and um haha...someone in the group liked it...]
Anyway, I will be writing more of the au right at the moment...even though chapter 7 is a bit depressing to write...

during global strike week, I:
contacted my senators and rep, contacted the white house, contacted the democratic party, harassed politicians on their IG posts
followed more people in Gaza, interacted only with Palestinian content on IG and tumblr, started sharing things from IG here, shared informational posts, wrote image descriptions for videos and photos from Gaza
made flags for my home, connected with a local activist group (and we have a protest tomorrow!), talked to my SIL about boycotting Starbucks, talked to my kids about Palestine, listened to music from Palestinian artists
donated an e Sim, updated my boycott list to focus on targeted companies, only bought essential grocery items, paused my netflix subscription, played freerice.com
rb and make your own lists in the tags, replies, whatever! although strike week is ending we can still do these and many other actions to help.

Hot take, but Mother's Day is for mothers and mother figures. It's not for single dads, 'cause they already get their own day (the same goes for single mothers on Father's Day). It's not for pet owners, 'cause taking care of a pet isn't the same thing as raising a child. It's not for deadbeat or abusive mothers, because they suck. It's not for women who want to be mothers, but are not yet/have never acted as a mother figure to anyone. And it's not for women who have no desire or plans to become a mother, but want to be recognized because they feel left out. Mother's Day is for women who did the work to fill the role of a mother in someone's life, whether they are their biological mother or not. And a person's inclusion in being celebrated today should be determined by the person/people for whom they acted as a mother, and not by random strangers trying to make sure everyone feels included on a day that isn't for everyone. Not everyone wants to celebrate Mother's Day, and that's okay. They can just not celebrate. You don't have to contort the meaning of the day to make sure everyone gets a reason to participate. If your mother sucks and there's no one else in your life who stepped up and acted as a mom for you, you don't have to wish anyone a happy Mother's Day. You can just order Chinese food.

it’s this time of year where i am reminded that everyone has just forgotten about the 2020 hs and college grads.
I don’t know how to explain that losing my college graduation/celebration makes celebrating other people make me feel… sad?
