i love it when a woman slowly steps out of survival mode and starts to fall in love with life again. when her zest for life comes back and when she starts to notice all the magic and blessings around her, it’s the most beautiful thing to witness.
Sometimes I fantasize about disappearing.
Not dying.
Just logging off.
Getting a job no one cares about.
Growing tomatoes.
Writing poems in the margins of a notebook no one reads.
Not as a failure.
But as a kind of freedom.

Best mental reset I’ve learned:
If your mind is loud — Write.
If your mind is empty — Read.
If your mind is racing — Walk.
If your mind is tired — Sleep.
If your mind is sharp — Build.
Most problems are just mismatched energy. Get the inputs right, the rest follows.

BREAKING: Adam Schiff just read Trump's EPA director a full list of his agency's failures to his face and left him completely speechless. This is absolutely incredible.
Nice hikkimori reference. The problem with the hurkle durkles is that they feel entitled to other people’s money. Tax workers to pay for the hurkle durkles’ student loans on useless degrees. Call mommy and daddy for subsidies. Self care means ordering Uber eats, binge watching Netflix, scrolling through TikTok, and mailing in your vote for democrats to give you more handouts all without leaving the house. At least your carbon emissions are low!
Self care should mean paying for it yourself.
Who says they aren’t? Seriously. I didn’t read that. Does this generation receive more government subsidies than others?
Slackers never pay for anything. They demand everything for no apparent reason. Toss them to the curb and them force them to grow up, and take care of their own business, all by themselves.
