Hey new followers. I'm garbage at maintaining this. I only shitpost whatever brainfarts happen when I can't sleep. Earworms. Lyrics. Random bullshit. Enjoy?

Perhaps you’re just comin’ full circle, Lex.
You’ve gone down all the roads so many times that you know all the places to stop at, but ya never went back to where it all began.
If so, then ya gotta figure out this-
Are you ready to ride out again, or are ya gonna stay home?

what if healing isn’t becoming someone new what if it’s just learning how to sit with the guy you already are without needing to break him i don’t miss the pain i miss how simple everything felt when the pain made all the decisions
English
@lexcollins Who I was before was never me. It was a reasonable approximation of who I am. My first steps in wrestling was a poor attempt to create. The lesson learned was that acting is for Hollywood. Authenticity is preferred in our world.

what if healing isn’t becoming someone new
what if it’s just learning how to sit with the guy you already are
without needing to break him
i don’t miss the pain
i miss how simple everything felt when the pain made all the decisions
English
@lexcollins Don’t doubt that you’re a good man with a good heart ok? You took me in and integrated me not only into your life but into your family’s lives. You let me hold your newborn. That takes so much.
English
i said i’d never be like him
and then i caught myself enjoying the part where they stop fighting back
so yeah
that one’s sticking in my throat tonight
English
@TheFlamingOmen the glass you find weeks later
sneaky like that
Shrapnel’s the same
English
@lexcollins No I haven’t. But I’ve also literally been in an explosion so I imagine it feels about the same.
English
@lexcollins Still not entirely. You got in the ring with me and even after I slapped the shit out of you, treated me like an opponent not like something to destroy.
English
@TheFlamingOmen self reflection is like glass splinters
you ever did a light tube match?
absolutely like that
invisible agony
English
@lexcollins Well yeah that’s kinda the point baba. It’s about in part learning to live with who you were before and eventually learning to love them.
English
every time i get close to being okay
i pick a fight with something that can hurt me
just to make sure it still can
is that why my therapist thinks i’m a danger to myself and others
holy shit
took me decades to figure that out
English
@lexcollins Nah, never had that experience myself. But I have ordered a pizza, then it showed up, and I realized I had ordered like four different pizzas and I actually wanted tacos. Does that count?
English
weed makes you honest in a way that feels illegal
like i shouldn’t be allowed to remember myself this clearly
you ever realize mid-high that you’ve
been apologizing for surviving
like it was something you did wrong
fucking hell
English
used to keep one of those
composition notebooks in my bag and
i’d write all these one liner profound
thoughts that came on me when i
couldn’t sleep and then in 2010 i found
this dumb bird app and i stopped
the books
maybe should start again
English
punk wasn’t about being loud
it was about being honest when honesty made people uncomfortable
i think i forgot that somewhere between bills and broken bones
forgot where and why and how
English
i keep thinking about how many versions of me promised they were done
and how none of them
knew each other
English
@infectLAZ Always a good time. Happy to share the main event with you, brother.

Lex Collins sits down for Spilling the Tea. It starts light. Then Resurrection comes up and he doesn’t dodge it.
