Everything is cyclical and you’ll have your eras when you feel evolved, self-assured, like you’ve “figured it out” and then suddenly everything will feel confusing and uncertain. Then you’ll cycle back. And this will happen through most of your life. And it’s happening to everyone you’re jealous of.
Your time will come around, just ride the wave bb 😎 🏄♂️🤙🏼

This is kind of an anti-rec, more of a PSA.
If you haven’t heard of the marketing research company WGSN it’s worth a deep dive.
Horrifying to see that years ago, a marketing research company predicted that we’d all be into 90s and early 2000s nostalgia, nihilism, and awe/whimsy.
The scarier part, for me, is how companies that work with these firms will prey upon individuals’ sincere interests and perspectives. Some unpaid intern from WGSN is def monitoring this app lol.
I wrestle with that competing understandings that a zeitgeist will always exist; that the transmission of preferences/ideas between people is how culture is made, with also not wanting to be unconsciously influenced by a predatory system whose only goal is to make me feel like I’m less than and therefore push me to consume.
Sry I’m super red pilled this morning lol.

I love the mundane little tasks one has to accomplish just to maintain day to day existence. I do my best thinking when carrying out mindless tasks. Then I can apply the ideas later.
The order and calm that getting my errands and chores completed bestow upon my life allows me to better focus on things that may be more commonly considered hobbies, a.k.a. writing, reading, making art, etc.
Everything has meaning and beauty in it.
