Watching all the “How can you drink hot coffee in the summer??”* people sip iced lattes in 20-degree weather 😅

*I’m drinking it hot because I’m ❄️inside❄️ with air conditioning. And I hate iced coffee lol

“Can you explain this cultural concept? I have never heard of the internet, a book, or emotional labor. Thanks in advance!”

Glad someone here mentioned the Puffy docuseries is only funded by 50, that it’s another filmmaker’s work. This is very, very well done. So many parallels to other monsters in our society, it’s appalling

Wanting a threesome is (usually) about wanting the experience, which can cultivate closeness over shared experience. I’d bet the narrative that the desire is always to cheat limits some people from potentially expanding the amount of pleasure in life.

(But yes, I know the cheaters are out there!)

Starting my day off with a round of Mario Kart has actually made me exponentially more productive for the day. I think getting into that focused trance is a sort of meditation

The excuse that bi people only stay in hetero relationships to avoid giving up hetero privilege is… lame, at best

That being said, the process is pretty manual & there’s a daily limit on unfollows that decreases over time, so it can take a while
Pro tip: If you follow 1000’s of people on IG, unfollow most of them—liberally—and your feed becomes *only* people you know and accounts you *really* like.

The algorithm sucks, but now I actually interact with genuine friends more!

Best thing I’ve done for myself on social media in a long time 💯

Going shopping IRL is so difficult…

…for the people I’m with bc we spend 25% of the time returning to stores because I left bags behind

God bless their patience

I really love to flirt, even though I don’t know how to

I’m so grateful for the luxury of spending most of my day focusing on personal development, spirituality, & schoolwork for my ideal career. Wow—Dreams come true!

(If you think that’s bragging, that’s a you thing. I’ve felt v inspired by hearing other people’s gratitudes and I enjoy sharing mine 😇)

Literally 400? What? I often don’t even have 400 things to say out loud everyday

100000% agree. One of the most most engaging books I’ve read in a long time
This book is extraordinary. Put it on your TBR if you haven’t already

If I’ve gone silent, I’m not trying to give you the silent treatment. I just don’t have anything nice to say, so I’m not saying anything at all

By the time I’m done, I’m like, “How did I even get here?”
I be on Wikipedia reading EVERYTHING 🤣

Wikipedia rabbit holes >>>>>>

Update: Weeks later, a fisherman found my phone in the ocean a couple of towns away—it still works (!) and he texted my emergency contact to send it back to me… wow lol
Y’all. I lost my phone in the Caribbean Sea midway through my Costa Rican travels & only got a new one today—pure medicine to be out of the country with no contact with American media (I use my computer for working primarily & I was 2-factor verif. blocked from most of my accounts 🙃). Mind blown!!!!

Speaking of, I pray gratitude regularly that my parents’ attitude has always been “As long as you stay safe and stay out of trouble, do whatever with your life that makes you happy.” I always wanted a life roadmap growing up, but now I see the value in letting me figure out what’s right for *me*

Someone on the internet said *everyone* struggles w/ “difficult mommy trauma” … I promise you don’t have to say just anything for engagement lol

My mama is a saint. She’s obviously a fallible human, but I don’t know anyone funnier, kinder, more open-minded, well-intentioned, & hilariously shady 🥲
