why do i need two tiny yellow pills every day for my brain to not freak out about every tiny thing? im beyond grateful for these pills, but i also curse their existence, or i guess more so my body’s need for them. im glad that mental healthcare is not as stigmatized as it once was, and me and my friends can take our little pills and feel better everyday. but also, can’t stop wondering why me and all my friends seem to need little pills to feel normal

ive been on it for ~ 10ish years (probably started way too young) but it gives me the power to be a functional human without diminishing my range of emotion (huge plus because i feel most alive when im laughing and crying i just don't want to be crying all of the time) prozac gave me insomnia and trintellix made me stupid. unfortunately i cannot cum like 96/100 times but i'll take that over how bad my depression was
also buspar on top of that helps w anxiety with like no side effects at all

This goes against the grain of my anxiety riddled brain, but if you find yourself in a bout of unemployment I encourage you to lean in. From what I read, this very platform would not exist were it not for unemployment. Granted I know this perspective sounds like and is a privileged take, but just know I have no idea where next month’s rent is coming from. I find that the psychic terror of not making money creeps in when I’m most idle, so I try to do one or more of these things a day to keep that feeling at bay:
- Walk my dog
- Go to a museum
- Research for creative projects
- Make said creative projects
- Call a friend
- Go to the gym
- Read a book or long form journalism
- Cook
- Clean my house
Eventually I know that the capitalist grind will rear its ugly head, as it always does, but for a brief moment in time it’s nice to just shut the door on its face.

Most New Yorkers loathe midtown, but I’m not one of them. Name another neighborhood where you can find the city’s most iconic institutions (Keens, Grand Central Oyster Bar, NYPL), specialty material stores (B&H Fabric, Toho, Jamali), great baked goods (Culture, Rose Bakery, Cafe D’Avignon) Japanese grocery stores (Dainobu, Katagiri), all your doctor’s offices, restaurants that stand up to their hype (Sugarfish, Lodi) and your corporate basics (Uniqlo, Muji)? Excuse me…I’m waiting. What I love most about midtown is that it’s an area for getting shit done. No lollygaggers allowed!

Whenever I’m asked to design something I bring these babies out. Instead of spending hours in Adobe hell rendering a concept, I just sketch it out in watercolors, scan it, tweak it and add in dimensions. I can’t tell you how many people are blown away by this. The deeper we fall into a AI/VR/algorithm run world, the more handmade touches become a true sign of luxury and taste.
