I started dressing my kid more natural because if I cute her up too much she gets away with things she shouldn’t which will mess her life up at 31 years old.

sometimes i don’t say what I really think but not on purpose, it just doesn’t come out right. it’s like: I have a feeling of what I think, and then I start speaking, hoping the words meet the thoughts just-in-time but as I finish speaking and what I’ve said is revealed I disagree myself. The trouble is now I’ve said it and I cannot unsay it without looking like a phony.

Local indy theater and coffee shop is having an event where you pickup some trash nearby, have a coffee and talk about movies. What a charming event. I felt good imagining I went.

I like to think when carbonated water comes in contact with my teeth it binds to any plaque and bacteria before self destructing in an explosion that leaves my teeth sparkling. like little kamikaze water.

I thought I wouldn’t be as irritated at the never ending “why?” kids ask because I’m a curious person and like to ask it myself. Well I was wrong but not how I thought, I do like to answer the question and I give it my best effort, what got me was her complete disinterest in the answer.

I oscillate between “everyone is just doing their best, give ‘em a break” and “you thought this was okay? have some god damn self respect.”. The latter is irritable but creates results. The former is peaceful but creates no change.

[line etiquette] if your friend arrives late and joins your place in line you must transact together. She may not do a separate transaction all by herself.

I think taking my airpods out of their case is the closest I’ll ever get to the feeling of pulling out a cig from a pack of malboros.

mid life crisis totally underrated and misbranded imo. it’s a great evolutionary invention and opportunity to sanity check yourself. (disclosure: just guessing)

there’s this man camp ad on instagram with fast cut scenes in high contrast, they show buff dudes arriving at a high end lodge surrounded by wilderness, they turn their phones in, eat healthy, get shredded, drink matcha and sell b2b saas together. i try to laugh it off but it deep down, damn, i want to go that camp.

everytime I said “gm” in real life, of which were few just to try it on, was regrettable. I’m sorry I tried. I’m sorry others thought it was working and I’m sorry I lacked the core to resist joining what was obviously never going to work.
