I’m pretty sure you’re supposed to say, “Good and you?” when someone asks, “How are you doing?” Not me. I love taking this opportunity to honestly unload exactly where I’m at on the ever swinging pendulum that is my constantly shifting emotional/psychological/spiritual state. Try being completely transparent next time someone cracks open this door to a potentially true human connection.

most of the time you'll get the canned "good, and you?" but once in a while somebody will suddenly give you a very alert look, and they might be willing to share some of what they've been going through. life is hard, but very much worth living! trust me when i say that it feels good to be there for others, even if it's just you listening for a few minutes.

start small! next time a friend asks how are you? don't reflexively say good and keep it pushing. try to share just a little more about how you're feeling. it doesn't need to be deep or dramatic but as you normalize that type of sharing you'll kind of be forced to check in with yourself and ideally start to feel more comfortable acknowledging your emotions.

If your energy is up and you’re in the right mental space you could easily come home with 100 plus pounds of amazing shit at a penny on the dime. People there are fucking nuts so be prepared.

I’m constantly surprised that people still wear un-zipped hoodies, myself included. Why not opt for the version that you can take on and off with such ease?

For so long no one was going anywhere and now that everyone is going everywhere it’s fun to see where they are and who’s around. I think we should all share our locations with each other. If you’re reading this right now please share your location with me.
