two of my friends just moved a few blocks away from me. before they were a 30 minute drive, but now i can walk to their place in less than 10 minutes. it's so great. we go to our favorite coffee place together all the time now, go to the farmers market in the park every saturday, have a lot more casual hangouts. walkable cities are amazing but they're even better when you have people to walk them with.

one of my best friends just moved back to mtl and she lives a 5 minutes walk away, and nothing makes me happier than us being able to see each other most days! even just for 30 minutes to grab coffee!! feels like we live in the same small village :)

Iām not talking just in the same city, I mean literally as close as possible. in the same neighborhood, on the same block, even in the same building. if you actually like each other you should be able to handle the proximity, look at Kramer and Jerry. however more realistically, just sharing the same corner bar is powerful, powerful thing.

this idea of "you don't owe anyone anything" came about through the social media therapists that try to diagnose complete strangers with a multitude of issues and complexes. all it has done has made selfish people more selfish and divided us as a community.
you do not owe everyone everything, but if you consider yourself part of a community, a society, you do owe everyone something. at a base level you owe people kindness, respect (as long as they haven't lost the right to it), and basic human decency. you owe your loved ones even more.
stop being selfish and rude in the name of treating your so-called "people pleasing."

if one more person tells me to turn one of my hobbies into a business i'm gonna go berserk. is nothing sacred in this late stage capitalist hellscape?

oscar wilde said, "If you want to be a grocer, or a general, or a politician, or a judge, you will invariably become it; that is your punishment. If you never know what you want to be, if you live what some might call the dynamic life but what I will call the artistic life, if each day you are unsure of who you are and what you know you will never become anything, and that is your reward."
i remind myself of this quote every time i get jealous of my friends who have it all figured out.
