That chestnut came up again today in a serious conversation that I loved. Rewilding isn&#8217;t a cure. It is a kind of palliative, and symptom management.<\/p>\n<p>***<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ve been unsatisfied with the tone I&#8217;ve been taking with you here.<\/p>\n<p>Also less than happy with having to hold myself back from saying some things out loud.<\/p>\n<p>There are smaller issues besides.<\/p>\n<p>I thought about fueling up entirely different spaces to split some of these hairs.<\/p>\n<p>But there are ways that are cheaper, more elegant, and more respectful of my process and my supporters, all at once.<\/p>\n<p>The basic daily sooth-spill will still be posted here, as always.<\/p>\n<p>But it&#8217;s not going to aspire quite so hard to be art, or to address the entire breadth of my interests or feelings toward my life.<\/p>\n<p>What I have in mind for it is posting once a day briefly to signal that I&#8217;m probably not dead in a ditch, and maybe in so doing sketching you a brief line drawing of the mood here.<\/p>\n<p>As in the sparkmad post of 19 March. Or, come to think of it, just an image.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to that milder journaling kind of thing, this site and software also allow me to post in total silence (a Private post only I can see), and also to post &#8216;password-protected&#8217;&#8211;both of which I&#8217;ve used in the past.<\/p>\n<p>When I post with a password, I&#8217;m not trying to hide it. I&#8217;m trying to say: &#8220;There&#8217;s a good chance you don&#8217;t want to read this shit, and maybe I&#8217;m not sure I want you to anyway. So here&#8217;s one more hoop to jump through to give you a chance to think about it first.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Usually, the password I &#8216;protect&#8217; with is a single lower-case x &#8230;<\/p>\n<p>And if that doesn&#8217;t work, and you still really want in, just ping me; a text or an email to vairtere at protonmail dot com, or any of the other protonmails you may have laying around (margentic). They&#8217;re all aliases of each other and come to the same place, which I do monitor. Daily-ish.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m thinking about making more use of Patreon for this sort of contingent publishing too, but we&#8217;ll see.<\/p>\n<p>***<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-large wp-image-9963\" src=\"https:\/\/www.vairtere.com\/spill\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/brokenGiraffes-1024x679.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"652\" height=\"432\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.vairtere.com\/spill\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/brokenGiraffes-1024x679.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.vairtere.com\/spill\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/brokenGiraffes-300x199.png 300w, https:\/\/www.vairtere.com\/spill\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/brokenGiraffes-768x509.png 768w, https:\/\/www.vairtere.com\/spill\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/brokenGiraffes-600x398.png 600w, https:\/\/www.vairtere.com\/spill\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/brokenGiraffes.png 1186w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 652px) 100vw, 652px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-9964\" src=\"https:\/\/www.vairtere.com\/spill\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/twinPeaks.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"385\" height=\"552\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.vairtere.com\/spill\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/twinPeaks.png 385w, https:\/\/www.vairtere.com\/spill\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/twinPeaks-209x300.png 209w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 385px) 100vw, 385px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-9965\" src=\"https:\/\/www.vairtere.com\/spill\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/tmWebinar.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"528\" height=\"429\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.vairtere.com\/spill\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/tmWebinar.png 528w, https:\/\/www.vairtere.com\/spill\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/tmWebinar-300x244.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 528px) 100vw, 528px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;ve a keen diagnosis and no prescription.
