No studying? Damn! Next thing they'll tell me is I'll have to eat jelly doughnuts or sleep with a supermodel to get things done around here. I ask you, how much can one man give?

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Is this where I complain that therapy is hard? Because therapy is FUCKING HARD. I'm traumatized and broken and I don't see a way out of it. And I'm at work now, and all I want to do is go home and cry.

Also, I just got LDBed by Johnny Fucking Cash.

{{{Tom}}}. Yes this is most definitely the place. I'm sorry.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Definitely the place. It's a bitch. But we will all do what we can to help you out of it.

Our wings are not tired.

I am not a big fan of the no pain no gain theory. In particular when my loved ones are in pain. IOW, I'm sorry, Tom. It really should be easier, you deserve joy.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

Aw, jeez, Tom. I wish there was something we could do to make it less hard. I'm really proud of how hard you work.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Therapy IS FUCKING HARD. Wishing you heart's ease, Tom.

Harvey is on my lap, resting his head on my hand in such a way that I can feel a fang.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Tom, it is so goddamned hard. And fucking unfair. I really, really know how you feel. (Or, at least, I think I'm on the same block, maybe even in the same building.) And it's really lousy.

All I can say is that I *think* the way out of it is to keep doing what you're doing (what *we're* doing), even though it's so fucking hard and painful. I mean, it doesn't feel like that's the way out, but I still think it might be.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Love to you, Tom.

You've been working your way out of this since I met you almost two decades ago. You are one of the bravest people I've ever known. You could have curled up and all but died long ago, lived a shadow of a life - but you've worked and fought and you have art and fun and people who love you.

The fellow from my improv class who had brain cancer is in hospice now.

2016 is like a lab assignment the fucking devil is rushing to finish before it's due on December 31.
