Keeping a diary, I have always failed at. Cognitive journaling, on the other hand, as a coping mechanism for my mental illness, works like a charm.

Edit: the fountain pen helps, too.

        Oh no, while you were distracted fiddling with the focus lens it looks like a bunnyrabbit managed to get to your cheese slice!

            Haven’t shoved it into anywhere because that sounds like a third date type of thing and I haven’t even gotten Gemini’s number yet, but presumably rabbits actually probably can’t process cheese, no. Most mammals are lactose intolerant when fully grown.

                Oh I don’t even use AI chatbots at all, actually. I just have a huge inferiority complex that drives me to try to make jokes in order to get cheap validation from internet strangers.

                But I mean, if I were to date Gemini I just have to make sure my keyboard is nicely wrapped in a condom first and I should be good, right?!

                  I 100% realized that you were joking. I was just trying to ride on the wings of your joke. 😅

                  Ugh… Don’t even get me started on validation… After having lived with depression and its perks - isolation being one of them - for four years, I have ZERO judgment. I mean, just a single like on a post or comment of mine feels like morphine at this point. 🤣

                    Well, to be honest it wasn’t so much that I was afraid you thought I was serious so much as I took the opportunity to make a self-depreciating joke - another of my standard routines (that get old fast).

                    And I get you. I have a feeling our life situations are fairly similar in that regard, actually.
