This really is uplifting. I hope to see a cure in my life time.
Dusty old bones, full of green dust.

I don’t know if this is a hot take, but I think people need to stop basing their lives off of celebrities/influencers. We equate wealth with some hidden knowledge, when they’re just people. Sometimes really fucking stupid people who happen to have a profitable talent. Next time some tries to sell you something or teach you something, ask yourself if this person is even an authority/knowledgeable on what they’re talking about. I’ve gotten in the habit of mentally going “and you are?” when I get new information. Sometimes you find our that person is a leader in their field. Sometimes it’s just some terminally online teenager.
Hotter Take: I think black people put too much stock in celebrities and what they’ll do for the black community. You don’t get freakishly wealthy being a sweetheart. Jay Z is not going to save us. And our blind loyalty has us supporting subpar performances and people because we “have to support” and it keeps fucking us over. No, I’m not supporting this business just because it’s black owned if the service/quality sucks (especially since black owned goods tend to be more expensive).
Dude, this is straight terrifying.
Reading, TV, video games, studying, crafts/hobbies
Man, I’ve been tempted. I’ve started saying I’d try a drug if it was ever offered, because I’m too much of a coward to figure out how to get it myself. I have an additive personality, so I know it would kill me and, honestly, I’m fine with that.
Back in the day, I could finish Fatal Frame 2(Wii edition) in under 3 hours. I had played it a lot so my camera was is “festival” mode and full upgraded, so I could pretty much kill a ghost on sight which sped things up.
My phone would drop and just detach from the phone jack and still fall, sometimes ruining the headphones in the process. My phone has a case and takes a fall better than my headphones. But it’s also older (Samsung note 8), so there’s that
I think it has a rich history and culture. That being said, I’ve never been, but the news that comes from there doesn’t make me form a good opinion. I always hear about horrific sex crimes against women, or gang rapes, or murders. I’m certainly not going to say that’s all they do, but that’s the bulk of news I hear about it. I hear about the scam centers that seemed to be baked into society. I hear about the caste system, the lack of cleanliness and infrastructure, I hear about the overcrowding. Yes, I hear that they work towards better tech, but the news I hear from there has places India squarely on the “Do not visit” list.
I leave some out for a chipmunk as well. I’ve named him Ignacio.
Oh god, no. It was just to give her something to look at through the window. Like “cat TV.”
I believed it was boring and weird (“Why can’t they just goggle the bird?”). But I recently bought a bird feeder for my cat and I’m more invested in the birds than she is. It’s like boring Pokémon, I love it lol.
Reading, crafting, learning a language.

I was taking a walk last week and a car of white guys screamed “N*gger” at me, so that was fun. And have been to Japan, which was racism on steroids (for black people anyway).
Yesterday. My mom came to visit.
Do schools in Korea ban different grades from talking to each other? What’s stopping someone from one grade up from being with someone one grade down (or a year down if in college or something). They’re making it seem like, currently, you can only interact with people your own age?
For fuck’s sake, did this man do anything without a bribe? He studied and worked all the way to the supreme court just to be a piece of shit. What a embrassement of a person. I’d say he should be ashamed, but I’d probably have to bribe him to do even that. 🙄
I had a friend (black) who got a fruit basket with majority bananas from her employer. She was really happy about it, so I didn’t say anything, but it gave me pause 😂
