I think all the time about the interviewer who asked Meryl Streep βhow did you not know about Weinsteinβ and she was like βI didnβt know because he NEEDED me not to knowβ it isnβt a character flaw to have been deceived by someone who is a deceit expert cultivating the cover of your faith & goodwill

my website needs to be a bit of a workhorse so it's kind of expensive, which sucks (not crazy but definitely not nothing). I totally get not wanting/being able to pay for it, but there are free/inexpensive options out there! the trick is getting eyeballs on it, which is very very hard.

big same. there were SO many reasons not to have a site and rely on social media only, and if you are in your early/mid-twenties this is probably your first experience with a big internet ecosystem collapse like that. meta/twit made solely relying on your own websites nonviable anyway, by design.

I'm glad I've had one the whole time (selling prints mostly, thank goodness I hated etsy from the get-go) because it made the switch from frequent small posts on socials to a few big posts on my own blog/newsletter very easy. reach is GARBAGE but honestly not a whole lot different from IG anyway lol

i sweat a ton (used to be more, also due to meds) and i have a tendency toward low blood pressure (not recently but when i was in good shape i would see stars every time i stood up) so on hot sunny days drinking water just gives me a woozy headache. i probably do need a salt lick handy somewhere.

LOL yeah it was real bad everyone knew where i was in the house at all times because i was just constantly gagging. super casually, often mid-sentence, as if it were simply a sneeze or a yawn.

most importantly, i think, iβve made a TON of new friends in the last year. like. my entire network is entirely different now. that wouldnβt have happened without having to move platforms. idk maybe iβm just lucky but it feels nice to finally see some social dividends from putting in the work.

every morning she cries for me to come get her, and every morning when i open her door, she takes one look at me and flings herself to the ground and into a corner screaming NOOO NOOO NOOOOOO. NO MAMA NOOOO. probably not much i can do about that.

i think thereβs a part of me that feels like itβs actually healthy for the ecosystem to shake things up a bit. make everyone start βfrom scratchβ again (itβs never βfrom scratchβ when you have an existing following but a shakeup makes it easier to squirm in when you donβt)

where iβm at in my career (aka not on top of the world/socials lol sorry friends who were) i genuinely kind of donβt mind the occasional levelling of the playing field. it has been SO vindicating, confirming that it had nothing to do with quality of my work, it was the algorithm working against me.
