    When I was nearly finished writing The Anxious Generation in the summer of 2023, I realized that I had left a gap.

    I do daydreaming before I do nightdreaming before I wish to do the deathdreaming.

    Dreaming is cool.

    (Is this why people can’t just wait a few hours somewhere if it makes sense?)
