Around a month ago, I read somewhere that if one is feeling down (whether this is physically, mentally, or spiritually), eating some vegetables could help. I can also vouch from the experiences of myself and others that a yummy veggie can bring balance and happiness to one’s day. Therefore, whenever I cook for others, I make an effort to either include or feature a thoughtful vegetable, as a well-seasoned token of my appreciation and my love for them. A vegetable to show I care!

Adding this to my selfcare list! Dont know if it's /scientific/ but I think just doing it to be kind to myself will probably already do wonders?

sometimes i get worried that i havent eaten enough vegetables in a day. but then i think about literally anyone alive pre-20th c, and there’s no way they ate the number of vegetables i eat, and many of them lived long and hearty lives. so if i don’t have a vegetable for a day or two? no biggie

In pre-21st century movies and media, we always see couples that go to bed, independently read their books, and once sleepy, clap off the lights and peacefully retire to sleep. Maybe there’s a reason this trope is so common! Maybe couples who read together, sleep together!! Reading before bed regulates my brain and body in ways I did not know were possible. Screens are bad for you, specifically and especially before bedtime… who knew! And with a good nights sleep I have so much energy to do things, including but not limited to more reading.

Collecting a stack of printed takeout menus from local restaurants is equivalent to finding community in your town/city. I love to get off my phone and flip through a printed menu when deciding what to order for dinner, appreciating the graphic design choices and the hometown staples on each menu. And they are only wasteful if you waste them! What great material for emergency note-taking, for adorning your fridge, for COLLAGING! Oh my goodness what great and meaningful content organically exists in a printed takeout menu from your favorite local spot.

Mr. Cassavetes is the man who has made me cry the most, isn’t that saying something! Starting ten minutes into the 2.5 hour-long film, I felt my heart slowly sink into my stomach, and by the end I was claustrophobic with such feelings of hopelessness, confusion, and the sting of reality. I cried myself to sleep, I didn’t know what else to do with myself! A WOMAN UNDER THE INFLUENCE is worth a watch for all these reasons, and for Gena Rowland’s unmatched and masterful performance, and for these reasons is a movie I must never watch again. Brava!
