@GJMarshy loooooool are you saying that Trafalgar Square isn’t a tourist heavy area? I guarantee you that the road the playground I described is on has a far lower tourist to local ratio than Trafalgar Square

i think i’ve always thought like this- if someone moves away or you break up, even if it is amicable, you’re probs gonna see them about 5 times the rest of your life

To all my people who consider me a high-maintenance friend, i'm sorry.

My brain was rearranged by this article and now I'm much more nosy about your lives, I send many texts, ask to meet and jump on calls constantly.

I will carve out space and time for friends whenever they want, because I want the tail end to be much longer

hi @eBay_UK @askebay I bought an Apple Pencil off ebay and it is counterfeit, I reported the listing and it wasn’t upheld. It literally doesn’t weigh the same as a real one, or have any of the features or serial number. It’s incredibly obvious.

serenity prayer from first principles

[blue @bluewmist]

Major life hack: Don't complain, ever. Nobody likes a complainer. They drain the energy of everyone around them. It's exhausting spending time around someone who constantly complains about things outside their control. If it's within your control, go do something about it. If it's not, you're just wasting energy thinking about it. Complaining gives too much power to the thing. Take back that power.

One of the purest smiles is when someone does that first tentative smile as they see if the person they did the thing for/told the joke to likes it, then the wide beaming smile it turns into when they get the reaction they were hoping for
