i wondered if our stars were the same.

are you “adaptable” or are you just willing to subject yourself to existing in low key background-level ambient misery

these are different things btw. actual adaptability means not dealing with being miserable long term. and being constantly mildly annoyed/frustrated with a situation but being “able to deal with it” counts as ambient misery. btw.

let this be your sign to make your life just a little more livable. get a dollar store trash can for your bedside so Cup City’s invasion plans fall through. block a tag or post that makes you grind your teeth every time you see it. get some grip pads so your bed stops sliding across the hardwood a little bit every time you get in it. tell that person you need a little more support. if you get annoyed at a situation more than a couple times, change it. don’t be content with being miserable.

and the more that you start doing this, the better you will get at detecting your own feelings and advocating for yourself! This is an important start to being more of a person in the world if you struggle with that

what a beautiful day to not be in high school

This is the like those “remember to be grateful you don’t have a sore throat right now” posts. It IS a beautiful day to not be in high school! Thank you!

Make bad art!! On your nice paper!! “Waste” your nice markers on a drawing of SpongeBob!! Use that nice fabric even though you might fuck it up!! Create things despite the risk of wasted materials and time!! Practice using your fancy yarn!! Doodle bullshit instead of making nice art to sell all the time!! It’s good for your brain!! Write a dumb song about a sandwich for a change, it doesn’t have to be a deep love song to be worth your time!! CREATE BULLSHIT ITS GOOD FOR YOU!!

it probably feels good as fuck to have the energy to live
