Thinking about a couple months ago when I met someone and told them I’m from New Mexico. Then they, a white person, made a “are you legal” joke to me, a white person. What a wild thing to say to someone you just met wtf

Like what do u expect from a country started and built on centuries of g/nocide and sl/very. It has always been like this and the only way to stop is literally uprooting and starting over. There’s nothing to “go back” to. This is it.

A year ago I was stressing out about giving notice to my job about quitting so I could move to Chicago. Now I live in Chicago and I’m still unemployed.

Like an hour and a half ago I heard a bump from the bathroom and my roommate scolding their cat. I walk in and nothing is amiss but my bottle of micellar water is VERY bubbly…a mystery 👀

It’s insane to me that I was 15 15 years ago. Half my life ago. I was a baby. I feel like I’ve been an adult in my 20s (and 30s) for like 20 years
