Me at 21 y/o: Galileo spacesuit teeshirt, bad haircut, freshly high on finishing a summer term at Oxford, roving the woods of Lincolnshire with Eddie (pictured), same glasses I have now (?), and literally no concept of COVID-19. Unabashedly anachronistic & cringe.

I tried to buy the light blue American spirits the other day, but the gas station man gave me the turquoise one and I bought it because God forbid I try to explain the difference between sky blue and turquoise to a random man at a gas station.

Need to start a substack specifically for my morning voice memo rants about institutionalized corporate journalism instead of sending them to @RealAndyFancher

@jacobandrewlong also has me thinking (as a person w chronic fatigue) what inclusionary rhetorical shifts need to happen in certain sectors of (ablest) "workout culture" - bc a lot of people simply want movement that aligns with their abilities. Maybe the algorithm is feeding me bs!

[Eden Prime @deadlyordinary]

Why are workouts advertised like "full body crusher!!! sore for days!!!"

I already have the weight of human existence crushing me:)

Don't they know I just want to feel nice and slightly healthy for 15 mins a day?:) not be in pain?:) maybe make my legs a little slimmer?:)

[Eden Prime @deadlyordinary]

@jacobandrewlong I am SO sure - everyone dying to be their own Sisyphus ✨

watched my friend take an order at her bartending job, halfway through the second shift of a double, and her eyes looked just like this.
