Consciousness can be agonizing but it's also a miracle. Sometimes the pressure to make the most of it feels debilitating. There's so much I want to do, and I have to remind that the stuff that really gives life meaning isn't hard to access. I think making a true effort to know yourself, make connections with the people around you, and observe and engage with the world are more than enough reasons to justify your existence.

might sound corny but comparison is indeed the thief of joy, setting goals definitely helps but just waking up each day and knowing you're alive is already such a privilege!! i do get it though, it feels like time goes by way too fast

damn… we really do be living, breathing creatures on this planet. it’s a heavy existence sometimes, but it’s also a beautiful one.

Recently been thinking about the multiverse and how one’s consciousness can exist in several drastically different situations as the universe must play out the infinite possibilities of one’s choices in order to remain stable... So really, no choice you can make is wrong, and regardless of what you do, a version of you exists somewhere that made the other choice, and lived that life for you, so you never have to regret it! The only thing that matters in this timeline is having no regrets and living your life to the fullest ✨

This NYT piece from last year explains why it’s actually a Good and Normal thing to do. I used to have like six in the bed at once but recently culled my crew to two practical ones: this sleeping Charmander plushie, which I hug while I’m in the fetal position, and an Ugly Doll I put between my knees because it’s nice and flat. They're so comfy and I fall asleep in 30 seconds like this (also they’re cute and I love them)

in Chrome is going to settings --> privacy and security --> site settings --> JavaScript. Under "not allowed to use JavaScript" add the sites you want to access. This is the only trick I've found that works 100% of the time. Video players and widgets that use JavaScript won't work of course but if you want to read something without a pop-up telling you to turn off your adblocker followed by another pop-up saying you've reached your article limit this will do it.
