I miss red note the interactions between American and Chinese people was so funny. we’d be like “hey so is social credit real in China” then get shot in the fucking head with a “haha no. Is it true you throw homeless people in jail?”

There is this guy on youtube name GAKHED who films his cats with a 1999 camcorder and in this time of brainrot and toxic internet it's the most calming and soothing thing i've seen.
This is what spring felt like as a kid. ❤️

The new American dream is to leave

[KAEGO ♤ @kaaego]

the level of exhaustion people are dealing with in this country isn’t normal, weekends have turned into a cycle of sleep, wake, and sleep again, no real enjoyment, no actual living. Just trying to gather enough strength to return on monday and continue like everything is fine.

love that I’m getting my corporate era out the way in my 20s bc honestly this shit is killing me and I can’t do this forever. Which means I’m on track to do some real cool, random shit in my 30s like those ppl who quit working at a law firm and become world renowned sushi chefs

When they ask how I spend my day at home alone

I'm never alone

So I have been thinking about folks between 28-35.
It has become obvious to me that this phase of life is one of the most misunderstood and emotionally demanding seasons anyone will ever pass through.

At this age, life quietly removes the training wheels. You are no longer seen as young and figuring it out, yet you don’t fully feel established. Expectations rise from every direction. Family expects stability. Society expects progress. Your peers seem to be doing better online. And you expect answers from yourself that are not yet clear.

This is the age where comparison becomes dangerous. You start measuring your life against timelines that were never designed for you. Someone is married. Someone bought a house. Someone relocated. Someone is already tired of a career you are just entering. And without warning, pressure creeps in, not because you are failing, but because you are becoming more aware.

Between 28-35, many people are not lazy or unserious. They are simply overwhelmed. This is the stage where reality replaces motivation. Where dreams meet bills. Where talent meets structure. Where passion demands discipline. You are forced to confront gaps in your skills, mindset, finances, and emotional health.

It is also the age where isolation becomes common. Friends drift. Circles shrink. Conversations become transactional. You are surrounded by people, yet feel alone. And when there is no strong sense of purpose or progress, escape starts to look attractive, whether through distractions, unhealthy habits, or quiet resignation.

But this phase is not a curse. It is a construction site.

It is the age where you must stop relying on potential and start building systems. Where you must upgrade skills, not for applause, but for survival and relevance. Where you learn that no one is coming to save you, yet you are more capable than you ever realized.

If you are between 28-35 and feel lost, tired, or behind, it does not mean something is wrong with you. It means you are awake. Growth at this stage is rarely loud. It is often lonely, uncomfortable, and slow. But it is also foundational.

This season rewards those who stay honest with themselves, invest in learning, choose better environments, and keep moving even when clarity is incomplete.

Started doing my taxes over the weekend. Now I'm sitting here going through 1000s of documents of absolute depravity by the wealthiest people in society that pay basically 0 taxes and I'm essentially shoveling out half my income just so ICE can go around and shoot my country men in the face. Sent by the very same people who are in these files that are being protected by my tax dollars.

Fuck this shit bro.

[Jamie Bonkiewicz @JamieBonkiewicz]

I can’t think of a better analogy for America than the Epstein files.
Mountains of evidence about powerful men raping children.
And the only person in prison is a woman.

How it feels to return to your 9-5 after discovering the entire system is a CIA psyop and that we are ruled by satanic p*dos that eat babies and I still have to pay taxes

[Nicki 🫧🪷 @nickimoraa]

After a while, you start pulling back from things you used to love. You water your plants less. You stop watching shows, reading, or replying as quickly. You don’t treat yourself the way you used to. You stop putting as much energy into your appearance, your routines, your rest, your health.

You spend more time alone, sitting quietly, feeling stuck. Days start to blur together, and everything feels heavier than it should. And you wonder if you’ll ever really feel like yourself again.
