The randomness of me, myself, and I

my dad, the most stoic person in existence, LEAPING out of his chair with great concern: I AM NOW OBSESSED WITH THIS PROBLEM. I WILL PROCEED TO SPEND THE NEXT MONTH SCOURING THE INTERNET FOR NICHE MODS OR CONSOLE COMMANDS IN HOPES I CAN BRING YOU AND THE ENTIRE MINECRAFT PLAYERBASE PEACE.

—don’t work for startups, they’re always one ‘innovative idea’ away adding ‘sell your kidneys on the black market’ to your job description.

—keeping a collection of basic OTC medicine on you will save your life one day. I recommend Advil, Imodium, and TUMS.

—those little single-use glasses cleaning wipes are 1000% worth the money

—overly self-depreciating jokes just make people uncomfortable, wean yourself off of them

—you can buy dehydrated mini marshmallows in bulk online and they’re a godsend for hot cocoa

—people don’t care if you have fidget toys on your desk they just want to play with them

– sometimes you just grow apart from friends and that is ok. it isn’t a failure.  – if you dread someone, cut them out. that’s your instincts talking. yes even family. especially family. (speaking to abusive situations)

– if you’re an introvert, don’t be afraid to take yourself to movies, dinner, walks, spa days, trips, etc. alone. the only people judging you insecure and/or assholes. live your life.

– try to not beat the shit out of yourself for not being able to care about everything wrong in the world all at once. life is not a competition for who should be the most concerned, the most informed. focus on growing and changing what you can change, but do it genuinely, and surrender to the fact that you can’t fix everything and everyone and no one can. its a marathon. not a sprint
