@johngreen @a_fangirl3 I am also a 5 but I make visual art!

[🐢🐢🐢John Green🐢🐢🐢 @johngreen]

It's baffling to me that some of y'all see stuff in your mind. You SEE it? The way your eyes see? I always thought "visualize" meant thinking of the words/ideas/feelings associated with a thing, not actual visuals.
I am such a total 5 on this scale I didn't know 1-4 existed.

Feeling embarrassed by your old work isn’t a sign of incompetence. It’s a mark of growth.

Being critical of your past performance means you’ve raised your standards, refined your taste, or improved your judgment.

It’s a path to producing something better in the future.

I hope you all have a weird or wonderful transition into 2021 and that you can take a few good things from 2020 with you.

Odd that our measures of animal intelligence are often tests for what we do better than they, rather than for what they do better than we.

We left lockdown to follow up on a dream we'd let linger: to travel around America in a camper to explore, make art, and see beyond our tiny world. We started in Ohio, where we stayed at the Brandywine Falls Inn at… https://t.co/LGD2PVEHUS
