things that bring you joy, art that makes you just feel that spark of joy again.

Everything that you can dip in to fill back up the sponge is not just something you do so you can keep working.

It is

work too, because that's what they're trying to do.

When I get really, really scared and really, really desperate and hopeless, I think, oh, I am doing the work for them when I am allowing myself to be that way.

And working against it is like, what's going to make me laugh today?

What's going to fill me with joy today?

What is some small thing I can do locally that will keep me plugged in that is

contributing to what will take all of this down?

You got some got to get somebody to sell the tickets.

You got to get somebody to make sure there's places to park.

When you have a concert, you've got to get like it's every single piece of that.

It doesn't just happen.
