Burnout is a bitch 🫠

One of my snaps broke off on a sweater and I didn't realise replacing snaps is kinda a process. It involves wire cutters and a hammer... And of course new snaps

I keep seeing videos on the clock app about how the orange man is gonna die soon... my fyp is like just letting you know 😄

Hear me out, Jeremiah has always been a rebound for Belly. That's why she went so hard for him when they got together #tsitp

This year, I can honestly say I don't know who my father is. I never knew him to be as soft and open about his feelings as he's been - and just here and there. In small meaningful ways.

I've been so anxious about trying to put together my practicum and today I realised I can keep it sooo simple like having it at home with a few people over

In today's processing realisations. Sometimes we sacrifice our own sense of safety for belonging. But the nugget aha is safety is just as important of a need as belonging

Me thinking about the similarities between eating a peach and a mango. A whole mango though, not the one where you cut it up. It's all a juicy mess.

I can't be the only adult shocked that I'm out here in charge of myself

Cancelled spotify, back on tidal after 5 years. The music sound quality is supposed to be better

Of all the songs stuck in my head after sinners, it's will ye go, lassie go 😂😂

Having an aha moment a day before a therapy appointment, and then showing up bawling... like my eyes won't stop pouring... Please 😭😭

Hiiii I am offering consultation on 10 pages of writing (poetry, cnf, or essay) + a behind the poem for this auction for eSims, ending May 18th! Check out amazing books & bundles, including a draft of an Eden Robinson novel?!!? #ConnectingGaza #CanLit tinyurl.com/authors4esims

For anyone aware of the tragedy at Vancouver Lapu Lapu festival, here's a thread of GoFundMe's available to help support the many victims. (copy pasted from my friend 'J' in the Vancouver Filipino community) 🧵

Like I knew it but experiencing it at my big age... chai!!! I thought I'd put this behind me

Living with my brother has really made me aware of how differently girls and boys grow up, and how we're socialized to be in the home too

The inner crash outs because I grew up not being allowed to crash out externally 🫠

I love how by the end of a somatic session I feel like I got a full body massage... meanwhile it's just been me noticing and leaning into what feelings feel like in my body and following little nudges of movement 😭

Outta the fog this morning there was this beauty 😍

What currently gives me hope:

I'm side-eyeing my spotify wrapped. It doesn't look accurate.

Grief is not the kind of sadness you can put down. It kinda just comes with you everywhere you go.

Someone please tell god I'm not his strongest soldier... abeg, I'm tired

Today in somatics class we talked about activation states. And it made me feel sad because now I understand why even though I have a desire to wanna see and hang with friends - my body literally doesn't have the energy

Being back home has me convinced the current price of food and regular groceries in Canada is a complete scam... I'm being scammed!

I know AD was looking at these yt folks when they were talking about peeing in the shower and pool that that's some mayo tinted shit... cause her face 😂

Responding to messages I didn't have energy for now I'm in luteal phase.

Baked apples > My place smells like a bakery from doing the bare minimum. I love it.

So basically no amount of time you spend with your partner prepares you for how much you'll miss them when they're away 🥲

My coworker and I live in the same building and I haven't been at work for most of this past week. He said he was about to request a welfare check on me cause he hasn't seen me... for the love of God don't call the police on a black woman for any reason.

I swear my apartment just shook, was there a mini earth tremor... is the building shaking under all the pressure of existing in the current world?

Me working on my resume at 3am cause living alone is expensive, but I have peace of mind.

Fucked up to realize that all the years you've been alive aren't like practice or something they're actually your real life. Pretty banal I know but I guess that's just hit me a bunch lately

There's this older black lady that's walked past the counter at work everyday for three days, and we've smiled at each other. She reminds me of my grandma 😭💛

Netflix is so full of shit (even though we been knew). They discontinued their basic 9.99 plan, and lowered the picture quality on it. So if you want to improve your picture quality, you either have to go down to the standard plan - with ads! Or pay 17 dollars!!! 😑

They also named a wasp that was stuck on the bus Harold, and were vouching for it to get out safely.

Kid on the bus 1: It smells like doo doo! Kid on the bus 2: It smells like Chilliwack! I... 🤣

Lord help me, the person who lives above me has heavy ass footsteps and seems to be only thumping around at night.

The way spinach humbles us when it wilts... like you thought you had something

Or am I turning in a vampire from twilight?

I woke up with random glitter on me - is this what waking up gay feels like

I now live on a mountain, and something about it really grounds me.

So what I wanted to say was - I went to the pharmacist and the lady who helped me said I had a lovely accent. She asked where it was from and I responded by letting her know Zimbabwe. She then told me she was from Uganda.
