So how are all my former gifted and talented kids who used to read several books a day and now rot their faculties doomscrolling while ignoring a TV show doing tonight

At one point during the internet shutdown, I opened Discord to try to see if it was one of the few sites that wasn’t blocked.

Turns out it’s a cool app, should I find some servers??

During the internet outage I discovered that Procreate brushes are stored in the cloud.

Turns out I don’t store a lot of things offline…an eye opening experience.

Guess what, many months later…it turns out money does solve a lot of problems 😅
Tempted to grow out my hair. Last time I tried this natural hair thing it was a pain, but maybe with a bit more money this time I can outsource a lot of the stuff I tried to DIY and hated.

I think everything—politics, economics, even some version of physics, comes down to human psychology.

It always fascinates me to think that a tiny island like Jamaica 🇯🇲 influenced the whole world musically: ska, rocksteady, reggae, dub, dancehall...

From sound systems to hip-hop and EDM, its deep basslines keep on inspiring people globally!

I’ve started being a 5am baddie and omg they were right. Waking up earlier solves a lot of problems.

A James Bond TV show for a streaming service in 2025 is gonna be insufferable. Just 10 episodes of a guy that doesn't call himself either James Bond or 007 yet and then in the final episode, he orders a martini, shaken not stirred, and we all politely clap and Season 2 takes 5 years to come out

I’ve been thinking about emotional resilience today. Reflecting on my failures, other lows of life…appreciating the lessons of the past and steeling myself against what is to come.

Finally getting into the Witcher on Netflix. Yes, season 1. Turns out it’s a great.

Does Netflix Korea have more money than other countries because the shows they produce seem so luxurious.

Currently watching Culinary Class Wars, Top Chef could never.

Today I’m drained. Being productive is exhausting.

Listen, I haven't read Fourth Wing, but calling it "dragon smut" is silly. Isn't there like one sex scene in the entire gajillion pages?

If you want dragon smut, read The Dragon's Bride. Briar RIDES that dragon, if you know what I mean. 😂

we’ll never get it but lowkey social media needs age bands. i don’t know if the generations would pick emojis or specific colours to differentiate themselves but we need *something* so people think it through before they start arguing with a 24 year old. remember what you were like at 24?? let it go

If there was any advice I could give anyone, it is to let go of the way you think things are or were “supposed” to be.

If my life had been the way I wanted it to be, the way it was supposed to be, I would have never step foot out of my hometown. Never left for college even.
