over the last twenty-four hours, every post i've thought up relates to food. topics include but are not limited to: lemonade, tortillas, ice cream.

🎶it's empty in the valley of your heart
the sun, it rises slowly as you walk
away from all the fears
and all the faults you've left behind🎶

on tonight's episode of ang plays stardew valley: we will grow blueberries, upgrade our pickax, forage for the community center, and hopefully learn how to face our enemies when attacking them with our trusty sword.

i'm going to count this as a #amreading win.

one day, i will stop preordering every book in an unfinished series prior to reading a single book in an unfinished series.

one day, i will learn my lesson.

today is not that day.

working on creating a doom free zone on here. i'm all about being informed and engaged. but i'm starting to wonder if it's terrible for my mental health to be doomscrolling all day, every day. maybe? probably.

🎶this one's for the lonely
the one's that seek & find
only to be let down
time after time
this one's for the torn down
the experts at the fall
come on friends, get up now
you're not alone at all🎶
