Curate, connect, and discover
re: that one twitter post that said "men get podcasts and discover things that women figured out when they were 15" or something like that.
today it's the ideology of "i can't do that because it's cringe" and that's not to say adults don't still think like that regardless of gender. but i will be 16 in 3 months and the way i live is that i rarely if ever give a damn about what people think about me. life is simply too short to live for the approval of others.
nobody cares that a hair was out of place from your slickback bun. nobody cares that your socks didn't match today. if it's something that you wouldn't notice on someone else, why worry about anyone else noticing it on you?
be weird, be silly, be fun. a life spent worrying about how you look or dress or act is a joyless life. if it makes YOU happy, that's all there is to it! there's so much going on around us (especially if you live in the US) to try to get you to be less happy. enjoy the little things because this is the only life you can live and choose how to spend it. never change for anyone else. 🎀
