that all that studying and academic pressure had basically zero payoff other than at least im employed

my parents had me convinced id magically save the world. made me feel like id never have to try, so i didnt. we see how that worked out lol

huh

people who go outside with zero spatial awareness. if youre going to walk slow, stay to the side. if you go up to get a closer view and take a pic, gtfo once ur done so others can get closer

they just wanted to save everyone the embarassment of being -40 minutes late to work

i used to be so anxious and shy i could hardly say a word to my best friends from childhood. you embarrass yourself over and over till it starts to get a little easier. now i can talk to a group of people i dont know well with only a little anxiety

i like to read philosophy. buddhist, islamic, hindu, european. doesnt matter. you can find stories of people going through the worst shit imaginable and finding peace. gives me hope

i dont think ill ever be in the mindset to get massively ripped off by a shitty company in buttfuck nowhere florida. no hate to people who enjoy it but it used to be a more reasonably priced endeavor. now the prices are worse and the lines longer than ever. with that kind of money id rather take a week in a cabin or nyc or something

most creators have patreons or sell merch. youtube doesn’t get a cut from that so you can support more directly!

id thrift more wood pieces but i dont have the tools/space to fix it up. also i move a lot and that stuff is HEAVY

disney world

my favorite switches all the time. currently obsessed w chamomile, thai assam, hojicha (roasted green), and also earl gray! tho we make london fogs w lavendar mostly

you clearly dont live in the usa our food is poison

some counties also have “no wrong number” programs, so if you can get a call to, say, the health department, they can redirect you to better services

i wouldnt hesitate to reach out to family down south as they may be most able to legally help you. i would not call the cops, they are useless. hunt for shelter and other hotlines, ideally chats if the walls are thin!

tbh ive seen incredible speeches by nonnative speakers because you can feel their passion and effort. the worst presentations at work you can just feel the laziness. i get lazy too, dont get me wrong, but they drag out SO LONG. just spit it out so i can take my desk nap 😭

actually huge pet peeve when people write out erm at all. also poor public speaking really bothers me. slow, with "um"s and "so like"s, monotone. really, really makes a work meeting drag by

magic beans

yes

talking to people. friends, strangers, idc. people seem too stiff these days and i think it keeps people lonely.
