Valeriano Orobón Fernández, born on this day in 1901, was a Spanish anarcho-syndicalist theoretician, trade union activist, translator, and poet who wrote the lyrics of the revolutionary song "A Las Barricadas".
Orobón believed in the organizational power of unions, believe that they would have a major role in reorganizing society in a more libertarian fashion. Orobón was also strongly opposed to the communist (i.e., Soviet) ideas in Spain during the Spanish Civil War.
Shortly before his untimely death from tuberculosis, Orobón wrote the words of "A Las Barricadas" to the tune of "Warszawianka 1905 roku", itself a well-known Polish revolutionary song. The anti-fascist tune became the anthem of the Confederación Nacional del Trabajo (CNT), and one of the most popular songs of the Spanish anarchists during the Civil War.

Theory:

I wake up, my shoulder aches, I tweak my back, I go to sleep. I wake up, my neck hurts to where I can't look all the way to my left, I get random shooting pains in my leg, I go to sleep. I wake up, my knees hurt, I go to sleep. I wake up, my feet hurt, then something else fucking hurts and I would really really like this to stop, I cannot deal with this on top of being bipolar and dealing with adhd and autism so that I don't even do things that I enjoy
At the very least, the neck problems on waking up might be helped with a different pillow or sleeping position. I have a stable of 3 drastically different pillows I swap through periodically to find out if anything that's bugging me is sleeping position related.
That very well could be an issue; I've been thinking that and my current bed might be the culprits...As well as a very squishy couch...Or at least they may exacerbate the pain. I'm trying to get active again so hopefully that will ameliorate some problems but god damn I would just like to exist like a normal human every once in a while. Swapping pillows is a good start tho good idea
