Dagan’s mom tells me how good I look, 11 months of inpatient treatment and 40 pounds later. she gives me so many fucking slips, even after she notices/asks about my arms

Fingernails are so overrated, we have far too many of them for life in the modern world where you can't even scratch people anymore, I mean you can but it's so totally frowned upon. That said, it kind of widdles down the use of fingernails to gingerly picking at things like cuticles or the odd splinter, but you hardly need two fistfuls to do those kinds of things. Just two of three.

But if they brought back scratching as a social alternative, I think a lot of us would stop biting. Hey, if they really truly care about us and really truly want us to stop biting, let us use them for something! Let Us Scratch People!

oh, somehow I missed that. I still stand by what I said, though, like a manifesto. sorry for the confusion. I'm as dumb as a burrito I think.

dear, I doubt that you are as dumb as a burrito! I got you beat! at least, I hope you aren't as careless with your life as I am with mine. I hope you aren't lacking the common sense that I am lacking... or, the instinct that drives animals to survive & to protect themselves against harm. I don't seem to have that one either.
I mean, goddamn, I do the same shit over & over, & I just don't learn. I put my hand to a hot stove again & again, although it burns me, every time.
