if you hate your roommate why not decide to think of your bedroom as a nice little place to improve like your own little oasis rather than lament the discomfort you feel in your own home? if anyone has tips let me know because I’m really in a theory rather than practice stage.

i grew up and slept here my entire life. i envied my friends who lived in a dorm or moved out of their parents' place and dreaded coming back to my room alone after a day out. growing up i hated my room, viewed it as an inescapable place of stagnation, and wanted to leave every second. my relationship with my room changed after slowly decorating it with love: postcards, gifted trinkets, books, framed collages. my room became more special when i frivolously treated it with perfume, a flip clock with a loud motor, an old poster of a British trip-hop group, chairs i really like that remind me of the on-campus library chairs from facebook marketplace. every day i'm reminded my childhood room is my childhood room when i wake up to an exposed closet with a half wooden slide door installed from my parents' bedroom downstairs. my desk created scuff marks on the wall that reveal its former light blue paint. my mom always barges in without a knock, sometimes with a small bowl of fruit. i love this room

this makes it sound like i live in a huge house but really i just mean sitting on the stairs leading up to the front door, the balcony that no one uses, more time in my own room (honestly i don’t do that enough)
it brings new thoughts and hopefully provoke new hobbies

Every time somebody tells me about a usernameable platform I jet to it ASAP to try and get the madden handle. Difficult to contend with the NFL but I’ve had some big scores.

The piano opening to Court and Spark by Joni Mitchell changed my life. It’s the first time I remember experiencing sound and the first memory I have of my childhood. I was 2 years old and sitting in a car seat in my mom’s Volkswagen Passat.

Before I get fired from my office job for being a communist agitator, I want to champion how easy and fun it can be to be an office drone. it’s comforting to know there’s always someone above you. Checking emails. Stealing paper clips.
