some people think writers are so eloquent and good with words, but the reality is that we can sit there with our fingers on the keyboard going, “what’s the word for non-sunlight lighting? Like, fake lighting?” and for ten minutes, all our brain will supply is “unofficial”, and we know that’s not the right word, but it’s the only word we can come up with…until finally it’s like our face got smashed into a brick wall and we remember the word we want is “artificial”.

I couldn't remember the word "doorknob" ten minutes ago.

[ID: screenshot of a post that crops out the author. the caption reads: ""are you even listening". the state i've been in for months". the picture below shows two hands with the palms turned to the viewer and in the background various trees, bushes and lights, seemingly at night, everything looks blurred as if in movement. end ID.]

serious question: can anyone else see this post? am I hallucinating?
