Stop Body Shaming: Lift Each Other Up, Not Tear Each Other Down 💪🏻❤️

A little reminder to the body-police brigade: this is a fitness space, not a beauty pageant judging women’s femininity. 😂💅🏻 If you’re here to criticise women for lifting weights, you might have missed the point of the gym universe. Feel free to explore other universe. I don’t judge men by their… (edited) read more

Do you have a real job?

If it isn't portrayed in a Richard Scary picture book, it isn't a real job... Other thoughts inspired by Richard Scary, courtesy of the most excellent, advertisement free Current Affairs magazine: (edited)

Am I Wrong?

If you invite someone out, it’s common courtesy to pay. True or false? I invited out a few people multiple times over last year— recently they invited me to lunch. At the end the asked me to pay. I told them we could split it. Am I wrong? (edited)

Ghosting: how to do better

I have often struggled to understand why people ghost others online. Many people have ghosted me in my life and I usually don't get why. I get that sometimes you don't want to talk to someone, but it seems to me more productive to tell them that instead of ghosting them. Partly because if that… read more

Rules of Dating

Respectfulness & courtesy

the most important criterias that need to be included when we’re making conversation with new friends!! Sorry for being old-fashioned but that’s the fact. Have manners!!

The Audacity of the First Message

I’m all for body autonomy and people chasing their desires, but the reasoning capacity of some individuals is terrifying. Imagine opening a chat ~ no "hello," no pleasantries ~ just a stranger offering to fund your life if you let them inflict pain and trample them underfoot. They couldn't even… read more

I'm not really enjoying out here too much due to the lack of no responses when messaging! This ghosting culture is really sickening! Where's is the simple courtesy in responding to a message 🤔 ! Dating is not fun anymore!

The “Bare Minimum” Toxicity

In Modern relationships, we’ve come to view small gestures as “bare minimum” which can become a quiet source of negativity And ungratefulness. When we start thinking: “he should buy me flowers” “he should hold the door open for me”, “she should cook for me” you take acts of kindness and start… read more

Basically, I wrote a dark fantasy Book

Imagine receiving an invitation... From the carriage window, you gradually see the stone architecture emerging between the trees. The tall glass windows reflect the rays of sunlight with an almost magnetic brilliance. The description you had been given was no exaggeration: the castle is a true… read more

Capital One

Dear capitol one. Please give the correct # when leaving a voice mail telling people to call you back. That way I don't have to spend 20 minutes playing phone tag just to hear that it was a courtesy call and nothing needs to be done. Not a good first impression while applying for your cad. … read more

The Quiet Foundations of Connection

There exists within me a truth that I carry quietly, like a stone worn smooth by years of keeping it close: I am, at my core, a human being who feels deeply and connects fiercely.

Europe a Mute Eden

Europe is like that expensive crystal ornament you see in a display case: it's absolutely perfect, it takes your breath away, but it's wrapped in such deep silence that it feels like a void. I've been traveling through Spain and Portugal, and look, I'm not the typical "selfie and run" tourist. I… (edited) read more

Help making a logo

As the title reads, I need help making a logo for my business. I have drafts (courtesy of ChatGPT, I know, im sorry) that were made after I showed it my hand drawing concept. Issue is, I can’t really draw to save my life, and while the AI version is a lot closer to my mental image of the logo than… read more

“Being kind is free”

It isn’t, that’s why it takes strength, courage, and humility. I must also draw attention to kindness not being a synonym to goodness. To be kind is to offer courtesy, to be good is to be diametrically opposed to evil and taking action against it. Being good requires disruption of your personal… read more

Christmas, Gift Sets, and Carrying On

It’s the end of the week, I’m home, and it’s time to talk about it. Monday wasn’t bad. It promised a normal week, and for that I was happy. Tuesday broke that promise about halfway through the shift when I was asked to take on an additional task alongside my usual ones. I was happy to accept the… (edited) read more

Where is my person?

Lately I have felt that no matter where I look my person is no where to be found. I've had a few potential people that I thought would actually lead to dating and a long term relationship however, it seems they flake or ghost with out any courtesy. What kind of manners were you raised with that… read more

What better way to parallel play???

My partner is playing Remnant 2. I have headphones in my ears. I am watching the TV as they play, and simply adding my own soundtrack to the gameplay.
