  • Week 259: Like Father Like Son

    19:20 08.10.2023 I decided to record myself writing with my webcam and Rode Mic. At some point I acknowledged how really angry I was at my dad, being in the hospital, starting smoking again, not calling any of us when he was alone and only sending us angry shit. I didn't tell any of my friends or colleagues about this and was carrying it with myself for two weeks almost without venting at all. I blew up in a voicenote I was sending him.

    I got in touch with my rage for the first time in my life. A real anger that was clear and didn't care much for other people's nonsense. That I always accommodate for people's feelings instead of my own. I left the apartment, saw Yassine, my housemate, in a bar with some other neighbors. I insulted him in front of everyone (I spilled two liters of water in front of both of our doors in the apartment as payback a flooding he did before), I left them, went and took the train, shared my anger with whoever I could online, drove to see Felix in Hermanstrasse, went to bar, drank whiskey, met and girl and we went as a group back home with her. She's coming over in half an hour again.


    It's been such an intense week. One of the fastest I've experienced because just a second ago it was Sunday from last week. I went from a full moon that made me feel I could write the world if I kept writing (but then I went to a full moon circle event that was garbage), and now I have that urge to write but no inner soul to write from. It's a disgusting place to be in.

    I called in sick on Friday (this rage episode was on Thursday), and then I went to volunteer with the kids on Saturday. Yunis lost his shit, bit me, and started attacking people and throwing things. My hands got scratched trying to hold him. I feel hurt from that, and I'm not doing so well today. Bought flowers with Sien in the morning. Was good to just talk to someone.


    Sex education season 4 is out. That's awesome. I love it. But a lot of past characters are gone and that's a little shit. So far there is no bigger overarching narrative like the 'bad principle' in season 3. So that makes it lose some zast.

    I should start going to the office again. I am using someone's help to become a beat81 coach. I want to go back to focusing on finishing books before doing all the rest of the things I keep saying I should do.

  • Week 258: After full moon
    01.10.2023 23:47 I went to a horrible full moon circle. The facilitation was horrible. Tea ceremony facilitator had a panic attack. The other facilitator made everything about herself and some stupid singing. Makes me think how things might go if I make my own circle. I wish to utilise my rage more, it’s a powerful tool. Shaved my beard about 40 minutes ago and left it as a goatee with a lighter moustache and the part right below the lip. I spoke to Mousa today and holy lord is Laith a cutie pie. Mousa kicked a yellow balloon from his hands (from the top if his head) and just gave mousa this look that I loved seeing. Of wtf dude, and oh this is confusing. But just a millisecond before running back. 5th jump down. I really appreciate Jürgen.

  • Woche 256: Noch 50 Sekunden
    21.29.2023 Sonntag ich habe mehrere Aufnahmen auf Deutsch aufgenommen. Die fragen die ich mich zurzeit stelle: wie wird die Welt in 30 Jahren aussehen. Scheint für mich als ob das eine die wichtigste Fragen ist. Ich versuche noch die richtige Sachen zu schreiben und sauber zu denken. Was sonst? Mutter ist gut und in Palestina. Geschwister sind auch gut.

  • Week 254: elemental today, oppenheimer tomorrow
    23:41 03.09.2023 I saw Mohammad Assi and his wife, and Ammo Waleed’s daughter of his cousin right before my train left. Changed the shirt on the platform from black to white. Homeless vibe red head charged her phone in my chair. Is there such a thing as too much Knafeh?

  • Week 252: Rude Sara
    18.08.2023 16:18 Just to note, I tried to call her when we were first messaging to clarify the thing through the phone. For some reason, she preferred to keep it through messaging and stay on the same note. Next time: I either do it on the phone, question and keep the person on the spot, or don’t engage at all. So many more wonderful woman out there than people who are like rock and don’t know how to interact. “I don’t know what you want from me.” If a guy says ur cute and takes ur number he probably wants to date u idiot.
