Stop worrying about what jokes and references are currently the funniest and not ā€œcringeā€. Donā€™t give into every microtrend because capitalism praises those who continue to buy. If a trend helps you discover something you like, thatā€™s amazing, but discover who you are rather than sloppily tying your identity to something that will be worthless in a week.

Love this! You won't find your identity in the things that you own. You can have a room full of empty canvases but you're not an artist until you paint.

i think now more than ever, we live in a society where it is normalized to judge others for not following the ā€œtrendsā€ or ā€œsocially acceptableā€ things, which has become a big problem for the coming generations. i think people should be their unique, authentic, selves and shouldnā€™t be afraid of such, because who actually cares ? i mean, yeah, people will probably judge you for it and say rude things, but people will do that anyways, so why not have them say it about something YOU know you love. as long as you know that you like it, then it shouldnā€™t matter what that one girl thinks about it, because at the end of the day, itā€™s just someoneā€™s opinion, not an actual truth. if you wanna dress all funky and different, do it !! and do so with confidence .

our cultural obsession with being perceived as cool is a disease. its peak capitalistic/consumerist propaganda. fuck being cool. like what you like and who cares if it's cool or not. it's tiresome and we need to leave it in 2024. literally nothing gives me the ick more than people who betray themselves in an attempt to be perceived as cool by the masses. be yourself ā€” even if it means you're 'uncool'.

i feel like social media has made us so self-aware of our actions/habits/behaviors. we are thinking of what is cool or trendy or desirable. we are too afraid to be cringe! to be stupid! to be lame! the best community i have found is the people who are not afraid to like what they like & are proud of it. do the stuff you always wanted to try. the people will follow.

Iā€˜m told that itā€™s rude, but frankly I donā€™t care. How many people am I supposed to say goodbye to? Does everyone just stand and watch as I say goodbye? Is it announced that Iā€™m leaving? Am I losing an ambiguous alibi and whereabouts? Yes. Iā€™m going to leave and what are you going to doā€¦ tell me to stay???? Iā€™m already gone.
