The gang returns from a two-week hiatus, caffeinated and creatively cautious, diving into Week Two of The Artist’s Way: Recovering a Sense of Identity. But first, sparks of inspiration! Andy rants about Seth Rogen in “The Studio,” Kel circles the finale of Andor like a Star Wars shark, and Theo gets gifted Alligator Bites Never Heal on vinyl and a fresh Switch 2 controller. There’s bath-time therapy, DC travel talk, and a brief but passionate Nintendo corner.

In our mental health portion, we unpack our recent experiences with morning pages—some of which now span 30-minute stream-of-consciousness audio journals while navigating traffic and existential dread. We vent about work stress, camera nerd joy, and trying not to judge ourselves when all we can write is the word “fuck” 70 times in a row. The group also shares their solo artist dates, from bubble baths to film marathons (Brazil still rules).

We dig deep into Julia Cameron’s warnings about Crazy Makers, Poisonous Playmates, and that nagging skepticism that creeps in just as our creativity begins to breathe. What do we do when success starts to show up and we suddenly want to run? What happens when the universe actually… responds?

Then, in our campaign, the gang stumbles into a sewer-based city of lizardfolk and fishy friends, grabs some beefy grub at DacaVille, and gears up for the next chapter of their world-shaking investigation. There’s healing, tail-friendly booths, and camera whistling. Truly the future is funky.

📓 Homework: Keep up those morning pages. Plan your next artist date. And remember: quantity is your job—quality is the universe’s.
