I don't know how but you found me

ctrl+f is one of the greatest things to happen to academia and indeed this world

shoutout to all high school dropouts, students who didn’t get accepted into college, students who used to be on honor roll but became overwhelmed, students who study for hours but still fail tests, or student who don’t study at all due to depression/anxiety, you are all stars and I’m wishing y'all the best luck possible to get back on your feet

in an age where machine translation is getting better and better I BEG you to keep learning languages and keep your brain sharp and keep an open mind. learning a language is so much more than memorizing a bunch of words, it opens up ways of seeing the world you hadn't considered before that are inherent to the way things are phrased in another language. it gives you a new lens through which you'll view life. it will make your life fuller, more well-rounded, more fulfilling. please learn languages other than your own.

listen I know sometimes everything sucks and the world feels awful and like everything is out to get you but I promise even on your worst days the small mundane joys still prevail. your favourite plants and animals are still hanging out in nature. your favourite music still exists and you can listen to it whenever you want. your favourite media or that hobbie you used to love is still around waiting for you if you'd like to revisit it. you can still eat your favourite food or have your favourite drink. you can still spend time or talk to the people that love you. the stars are still in the sky and the sun will rise and set again and bring with it all of the colours of the sky. there are still things worth holding on for, sometimes you just have to look a little harder but I promise they're there.

the shit you do to make a dying phone work when you dont wanna buy a new phone is amazing. my phone no longer charges unless i plug and unplug the charger exactly ten times & then flip the charger around then it works. I dont want to say i have to fuck the port a little bit first but i have to fuck the port a little bit first

I should lock the fuck in *half an hour passes* I should lock the fuck in *half an hour passes* I should lock the fuck in *half an hour passes* I should-
