A water bearer is the symbol attributed to Aquarius...the 11th sign of the Zodiac-my sign. According to lore, the water bearer not only pours out water, but also wisdom, mercy, and compassion.I am the main character in this memoir, and the story technically begins in 2018 with the onset of 24/7 crippling anxiety. I detail my sifting, wading, struggling through misdiagnosis after misdiagnosis. Until September 17, 2021-the day that changed my life forever. While operating a hand mixer in my kitchen, I had a seizure. I blacked out as I fell backwards into the kitchen island and woke up covered in powdered sugar, cream cheese, and pumpkin. I was lying on my sofa when my partner of 7.5 years came back from the Post Office.He drove me to the Urgent Care. They promptly sent me to the ER, where I had a CT scan. When the attending physician returned, he delivered five words that I never expected to hear: You have a brain tumor.What follows are myriad physical, emotional, and spiritual traumas and miracles. And a resurrection of a buried faith, despite a yet-unknown outcome.

Have you ever been made to feel like the bad guy? Dr. bird has too. In this brief memoir, they reveal secrets about their life that they have kept hidden for over thirty years regarding compulsory heterosexuality, repressed/unexplored queernesses, and the late in life realization that -- turns out -- they're #actuallyautistic! Retold from their 33-year-old Dr. bird's eye view, these extensively brave disclosures add one whole lifetime of flesh onto the U.S. body politic. This timely manuscript illuminates, historicizes, and contextualizes the f***ing fact that autism is not "just a trend" taking off just on TikTok recently, but that there are massive neuroqueer self-realizations happening worldwide in the algorithmic envirusment(environment + virus = envirusment). Dr. bird's unmasked writing voice puts the "cut-the-shit" into "slice-of-life," providing deep and raw disclosures of lifelong confusion, gaslighting, and struggles with family dysfunction, friendship loss, vulnerability, intimacy, sexual violence, and substance abuse. After extensive sharing, it's time to grieve. They usher in a eulogy for their lifetimes that once were, by diagnosing how foundational U.S. ideas did and continue to dehumanize, sicken, disable, and deaden us. Then, they preach to the global choir about the single most connected time in history. Dr. bird has a lot more puns and trauma than answers, but in the end, recommends some liberatory antibodies for moving forward, far less miserably.

Turn on the radio or take the time to flip through the stacks of used CDs at your local thrift store. Google "rock 'n' roll music," even. Better yet, visit any public place that plays popular music from the last 50 years or so as the soundtrack to your Saturday afternoon grocery-shopping, clothes-buying or indie record store-scouting experience and you'll find that no matter where you go, there's an ever-enduring presence that since the late 1960s has been a mainstay in the world of pop culture and popular music: a former blues band turned rock 'n' roll atom bomb called Fleetwood Mac.Though much of the band's popularity stems from their work in the late seventies and eighties, from an era when gas was 50 cents a gallon and singers were their own songwriters, there's a reason why the band has been able to maintain their status as rock 'n' roll royalty even more than 50 years after making their debut as a London-based blues group.His name is Lindsey Buckingham.Playing in the Rain explores Buckingham's journey from aspiring rock and roller to solo star, legendary producer, and chief architect of Fleetwood Mac's legacy and global superstardom. In doing so, Playing in the Rain fills gaps in modern conceptualizations of the band and Buckingham's own life and legacy.
