I think too much, therefore I am too much 💃🏻

All of the senior students at work finished the year early so I’m supporting some year 7 kids and these guys, I love them, but they TERRIFY me. Just this week they drew the word “gay” on my hand, tried to steal my phone, and hissed at me 6x. Contrarily, my year 12s think beef jerky is peak humour.

A wild thing about becoming a learning support worker (teacher aide for non Australians) in your early 20s is that suddenly you’re being treated as an equal to other staff in a school despite being significantly closer in age to the students than you are to the teachers/other staff 🥴

Do you ever feel like you’re watching the end of civilisation and everyone else your age is just vibing while you wonder how accurate Star Trek is about WW3 starting in 2026?

Sometimes I help kids finish high school, pass tests they otherwise would be too anxious to even begin, and gain confidence in themselves and their abilities. Other days I’ll be saying “that’s a lot of talking for someone who has never seen the top of a fridge”.

My gf and I were watching Star Trek this evening and I sketched the enterprise encountering a Borg cube

This cat always looks how I feel 🕺
