Topo chico is the gold standard but I’ve been buying just regular canned sparkling water because I can drink a lot more of them and pay way less— I’ve been buying Klarbrunn again it’s kind of slept on. Kombucha… I get the Kirkland signature organic lemon ginger. I’ve recently switched from Coke Zero to Diet Coke because it has almost twice as much caffeine? I also have a reserve case of Monster Zero Ultra at all times. I posted about hot lemon water yesterday that’s an evergreen favorite for me. Matcha is great I know people say to buy ceremonial but I’m not that precious about it I like Rishi everyday matcha. I just got a giant thing of Kirkland turmeric for golden milk lattes and I also love tazo chai lattes… Writing this out I’m realizing I drink a lot of beverages in addition to the absurd amounts of espresso I drink 🤔

Optimal productivity and hydration occurs when you have three categories of beverages immediately available to you. They are:
1) Hot caffeinated beverage: Coffee in the AM, perhaps a nice herbal tea in the PM
2) Water: I like lemon water in the morning, and then sparkling/a seltzer like LaCroix in the PM
3) Wild card: Diet Coke for me or if I’m feeling like a bad boy a Cherry Coke

My dad teases me about how when I was a little kid, my favorite thing to do when I was on the landline phone with somebody—be it a relative or one of my best friends—was to breathlessly describe the things that were in my bedroom so that they could have a mental picture of everything I loved and chose to surround myself with, and where I sat at that moment in time. Perfectly Imperfect reminds me of that so thanks for always listening and for sharing with me too 💌

I’ve been thinking about how much of social media is centered around curating our self-image. When selfies first became popular, they were dismissed as vain and vapid—a critique often rooted in misogyny—but now, the way we craft our online selves feels more like creating monuments.
We try to signal our individuality, hoping to be seen and understood, but ironically, I think this widens the gap between how others perceive us and who we really are. Instead of fostering connection, it can invite projection and misinterpretation—preconceived notions, prefab labels, and stereotypes. Worse, individuality has become branded and commodified, reducing our identities to products for others to consume.
On most platforms, validation often comes from how well you can curate and present your image—selfies, aesthetic branding, and lifestyle content tend to dominate. High engagement is tied to visibility, not necessarily depth or substance. But I think spaces like PI.FYI show that there’s another way: where connection is built on shared ideas, tastes, and interests rather than surface-level content. It’s refreshing to be part of a community that values thoughts over optics.
By sharing so few images of myself, I’ve found that it gives others room to focus on my ideas and voice. When I do share an image, it feels intentional—something that contributes to the story I want to tell rather than defining it. Sharing less allows me to express who I am beyond appearance.
For women, especially, sharing less can be a radical act in a world where the default is to objectify ourselves. It resists the pressure to center appearance, focusing instead on what truly matters: our thoughts, voices, and authenticity. I’ve posted a handful of pictures of myself in 2,500 posts because I care more about showing who I am than how I look.
In trying to be seen, are we making it harder for others to truly know us? It’s a question worth considering.
