"Stop saying 15 year olds with weird interests are cringe, they're 15" this is true however you should also stop saying adults with weird interests are cringe because who gives a shit
I get these messages and at first I panic because I think it's something about one of my kids specifically. But then I actually read the message and I'm like "oh it's just a Friday in America "
I just told my husband of 13 years that I have to do physical therapy, get epidural shots for my pain, and meet with a neurosurgeon to discuss surgery on my spine. His response? "Did you get my heartburn medicine?"
I have been in so much pain for the last month or more that I think about cutting my leg off or just ending it all so I don't feel this pain.
I don't know why I expected anything from him honestly
Video we shot during the second half of Tokyo Fashion Week in March of 2023 while shooting street snaps for Vogue. Everything in this one was shot with an iPhone, unlike our regular videos. The music is by Japanese artist and Harajuku street style personality Rinne Amano.
I just had the intrusive thoughts talk with our 10 year old. I will definitely add this for her to try
I don’t know who needs to hear this today, but intrusive thoughts are basically your brain’s (sometimes very upsetting) way of saying “If there were two guys on the moon and one of them killed the other with a rock would that be fucked up or what?”
I’ve personally found that adding the “would that be fucked or what?” part in myself really helps put the more disturbing thoughts we sometimes get into perspective. Helps me say “yeah thar sure would be fucked up” and move on with my day.
It’s not not a secret desire, it’s not something that only occurs to you because you’re a bad person. It’s just your brain deciding to process the fact that it knows an uncomfortable thing exists in the world by feeding it to you in an absurd “what if” with you as the main character.
I am super against light pollution, and have been for decades
but I am also super annoyed by the way it's framed as "without light pollution you can see how beautiful the night sky is" way more prominently than it's framed as "hey, did you ever stop to think of how much energy/resources/money are literally wasted by having so much light shine up into the sky?"
so people get the idea that light pollution can only be remedied by eliminating all night-time light, which would make being outside at night very inconvenient, instead of by making night-time light shine only on the ground where, y'know, the people who need it are
Does anyone know what's going on with student loans? I seriously have no idea. The last thing I heard was months ago when they were talking about forgiving 10k. But I don't even know if that ended up happening or not because of the lawsuits or whatever. When are they going into repayment? I don't even know who handles my loans anymore.....
