i actually really really hate two-factor authentication because i have been in several situations where i physically lost my phone and email access and was unable to log into the accounts i needed specifically to find or replace them and was essentially just Fucked until some act of god occurred to rescue me. i dont have alternative solutions im just saying this is a real and serious issue

i don’t think i’ll ever fully move on from things i cared about with my whole heart, but that’s okay. i will live beside them.

forgive the version of you that didn’t know any better

forgive the version of yourself that knew better but did it anyway. forgive every version of yourself. we are constantly learning from our mistakes.

forgive the version of you that didn’t know what to do and could not have foreseen what the right choice was, if there even was one. forgive the version of you that made a choice and regretted it.

btw you can be a kind person and tell people no sometimes

good luck to anyone who struggles around the holidays. sending some love.

still true in 2025. much love, 2018 me.
