Reddit is so strange. I'm looking at packing lists for trips and like so many of them are like 10+ underwear in case you shit yourself.

HOW OFTEN ARE PEOPLE SHITTING THEMSELVES?!?!

i say this with love: yall will make yourselves feel bad about fucking anything, i swear to god. you feel bad about feeling too much. you feel bad about feeling too little. you feel bad about what makes you feel good. you feel bad about not knowing what you like. you feel bad for not being able to survive easily in a world hostile to you. you feel bad for the tactics that you use to survive. you feel bad for how you identify. you feel bad for being unique. you feel bad for experiences that you share with millions of people. you suspect that every feeling, experience, desire, fear, and question in your brain is somehow evidence that you don't deserve to exist.

i can be so so reassuring about all of these things but ultimately you are the one that's gonna have to make a conscious choice to stop measuring yourself in these ways. there is no authority who gets to determine whether you have the right to exist or not. you already do. there is no body that votes on whether you get to feel, identify, or think as you do. you already do. your existence as it is is non-negotiable. stop trying to justify yourself. you're already here. the world is going to have to deal with it anyway.

when you apply for your villain license they give you a book of all the new words you’re allowed to say. it’s full of shit like “foible” and “machinations”

the heart isn't something that should be given away so easily. and yet in a crazy phenomenon called "love," we give it away in hopes that the person we trust it with, will treasure it with all of theirs.

"love" truly is a funny thing to experience. its light & airy nature can make one go nearly blind with fiery passion and a flurry of eager romance. in the balance, this must also mean it can also make one easily lose their sense of time & reality. it can give one something to live for. It can make one feel invincible. and just as easily, it can make one feel utterly useless & insignificant.

it really is a wonder how many things are a delicate balance of ying & yang; two contrasting elements that need eachother in order to function. a gentle balance, neither overpowering the other. just.. existing in harmony and peace.

evidently not 😂

am I going to be the person who wakes up at 9, eats until 10, and then goes for a walk until 11 so she can be back in time for stream?

In a completely unrelated note, I somehow got roped into being the person who arranges meetups with people in my local area who wish to maintain their mother tongue (in this case, it's Cantonese).

I genuinely don't know how this happened. I don't know what I'm doing. Social anxiety is nowhere to be seen 🤷🏻‍♀️

I thought I'd be nervous but honestly all I feel is relief 😂 I did a lot of stream upgrades that I've wanted to do for a while now during the last 2 months, so because I spent some of that time working hard, I'm glad to not have to think so hard because now I can go back to making little adjustments here and there and just enjoy streaming again =w=

Reading this back, it's honestly unbelievable. I don't think I've ever been this studious at this with any other job I've had. Maybe I'll feel different when I hit the 5 year mark, but when I had worked with a company for 3 years, I was absolutely complacent and think that it was time to find somewhere new. I don't really feel that with streaming, it continues to be a source of motivation for me to work harder, do better, find ways to improve, like that journey is never ending. I'm always finding something where I tell myself "Okay, I'll work on that during my off-stream day." and I just.. never felt that before with my career.

Whether I intended to or not, something I pursued as a hobby 3 years ago somehow became the thing I think about all the time, and I'm honestly pretty proud to tell people now because of how much joy it brings to me.

If there was one thing I wish to change, it's that I wish Twitch was sustainable to live on 🥹 I'd like to rent a place... travel to places... Oh well. For however long Twitch lasts, as long as I am able, I will continue to stream and know that when I am 50 and old, I can look back fondly on these memories, and know that I really found something that makes me happy.

Reading Oyasumi Punpun makes me feel so depressed I come all the way back around where I stop thinking about my own issues and get up and do something, anything, so I don't end up in a place where my life is that sad.

#fira thoughts #sometimes sad is good #sometimes sad reminds you of the right path in life #or at least which paths are the wrong paths anyway

Years ago, I bought a hydrating mist from innisfree because I wanted something nice and refreshing to spritz on my face during dry summer months. Nowadays, it has come in handy when I wake up at the crack of dawn and wish to remind myself that I made a commitment to seize the day.

Genuinely, if you wanna wake up early and stay awake, misting your face is less painful than just splashing it with cold water. Plus, my face is moisturized (⁠ﾉ⁠◕⁠ヮ⁠◕⁠)⁠ﾉ⁠*⁠.⁠✧
