@jahmeretyree_ - a customer tried to snitch on me saying I looked at her like she had ‘idiot’ written on her forehead.
My manager told her I’m the loveliest person & I could never, then came to me saying ‘well Pria tbh you probably did, she was an idiot & your face doesn’t hide how u feel’😂
Going to leave you with this tonight:
The best thing you can do for yourself is actively increase your surface area for luck to hit you. Go outside, travel more, go to new cates, museums, events, take a new route home, go for hikes, see cities, countrysides, take your notebook, speak to people, ask questions, start businesses - go on more side quests. You can literally just do things, and the more you do, the more serendipity and synchronicity will find you.
ACCORDING TO PSYCHOLOGY, if you always feel like people don't really like you, it's probably not because they don't. It's because you subconsciously filter out the evidence that they do. It is called
HYPERVIGILANCE. Usually, it comes from being bullied, never fully fitting in, or growing up around constant criticism. Your brain learned to look for rejection before connection.
If this resonates, this account is for you.

My aunt never married, no kids, small town, tiny house, lived to be 95. I always sort of felt sorry for her because it seemed like she had a rather insignificant life. I started caring for her the last ten years of her life. I found out she knew everyone, cooked meals for people, drove people to appointments, volunteered for everything, served her community and everyone loved her! Turns out I had a village help me clear out her house, move her and visit her.
Everyone had a story about how she helped them. Everyone said if you need any help, just call. I suddenly found myself envious of what she had. An entire town of people who were her family and loved her. Turns out she had the most rich significant life of anyone I have ever known.
Women are sharing live locations, checking the backseats of cars, carrying their keys between their knuckles and holding their hands over their drinks.
Men are doing 3 hour podcasts about how unfair it is that women don't smile at them.
She faked insanity to get in... but she didn't know if she could get out. In 1887, 23-year-old Nellie Bly got herself committed to a notorious asylum to expose the truth. But the moment she dropped the act and spoke normally, the doctors ignored her. She was trapped. For 10 days, she documented ice-cold baths, beatings, and sane women locked away just for being poor.
She escaped, exposed the horror, and saved 1,600 women. She didn't just write history—she changed it.
My older sister was 17 when our mom left.
She dropped out for a year so I wouldn’t have to switch schools. She packed my lunch every day. She lied and told me she wasn’t hungry so I would eat more.
I didn’t understand then.
I do now.
She’s 29. I’m 24.
Last week I paid off the last bit of her student loan without telling her. Just sent the receipt.
She called me crying.
I said, “You carried me when you were still a child. Let me carry you now.”
She still checks if I’ve eaten. I still make sure her bills are covered before mine.
Two kids who had no manual.
Now we’re building a life that doesn’t feel like survival anymore.
A woman came to me after losing her husband suddenly.
No warning. No goodbye.
Just a phone call that changed everything.
He was 67. Successful. Had a plan.
$1.6M in assets, a paid-off house, life insurance.
She had $200 in her checking account.
And for 27 days she couldn't touch any of it.
She didn't know where the accounts were. Didn't know the passwords. Couldn't find the life insurance policy.
Here are the 4 things rich retirees have organized and ready at all times:

—Only female bees produce honey-male bees only mate with the queen, they don’t work, they don’t defend the hive. Their only role is to mate.
—Only female ants make up the colony-Males exist mainly to mate with queens during nuptial flight and they die shortly after. The entire colony (workers, soldiers) are female.
—Only female plants produce fruits-Male plants only produce pollen. Female plants produce the actual fruit
—Only female spiders sometimes survive after mating-Males mainly exist to find and mate with females. Sometimes they even get eaten after mating.
Every other male species are inferior but somehow human males think nature made them superior.
Just watched a video where a woman writer shared how her mum came over to help. Her mum did all the housework, laundry, cooking, cleaning, and childcare so she could focus. During her mum’s stay, writer TRIPLED her daily word count.
Then she said something that hit hard. Most men have this kind of support their entire lives. Next time you call a man productive, consider that..
I drive Uber on the night shift. You meet all kinds. Drunks, lovers, tired nurses. At 2 AM, I picked up a guy from a hospital. He got in the back, looking shell-shocked. Didn't say a word. We drove in silence for ten minutes. Then I heard a sniffle. I glanced in the rearview. He was staring out the window, tears streaming down his face. "Rough night?" I asked quietly. "My wife," he choked out. "She just... the cancer. She's gone." My heart stopped. I turned off the meter. "I'm not taking you home yet," I said. He looked up, confused. "What?" "You can't go to an empty house right now. Not yet." I pulled into an all-night diner. "Come on. Coffee and pie. On me." He hesitated, then nodded. We sat in that booth for three hours. He told me about her laugh. How they met. How she hated peas. I just listened. When I finally dropped him off at 6 AM, the sun was coming up. He shook my hand. "Thank you," he said. "For not making me be alone in the dark." I didn't make a dime that night. But it was the most important drive of my life.

I own a small bakery. Business has been slow. Rent is up. I was thinking about closing.
Last Friday, a teenager came in. He looked nervous. He counted out change for a cookie. He was short 50 cents.
"It's okay," I said. "Take it."
He ate it at a table, looking at his math homework. He looked stuck.
I used to be a math tutor.
I walked over. "Quadratic equations?"
He nodded. "I don't get it."
I sat down and helped him for 20 minutes. He got it. He left smiling.
The next day, he came back with two friends. They bought cookies.
The day after that, five kids came.
Apparently, he told the school, "The lady at the bakery helps with homework."
Now, my bakery is the after-school hang-out spot. It's loud. It's messy. There are backpacks everywhere.
Yesterday, I found a note in the tip jar. It was wrapped around a $20 bill.
"Thanks for helping my son pass math. A Mom."
I'm not closing the bakery.
I think I finally found my purpose.
It's not cookies. It's community.
I replaced my friends with 90 year olds. And all my problems disappeared.
A few years ago, I was depressed, in a rut, and trying to find meaning in my life. And everyone my age gave me terrible advice.
So I thought to myself, "Why not ask people at the end of their life for advice?"
I set out on a mission to only make old friends. Like really old. My rule was they had to be over 90 years old.
It was surprisingly easy. Old people actually want young friends.
I told them all my problems with relationships, my career, my outlook on the world. And they gave me advice that literally solved every problem in my life.
Here is some of the advice my old friends gave me:
1. Eat less and walk more.
2. Be the dumbest person in the room.
3. Get comfortable with the unknown. That's most of life.
4. You're depressed because you don't have purpose. Purpose will set you free.
5. Money is important when you're old, not when you're young.
6. Marry your best friend. If they aren't your best friend, they are not "the one."
7. You won't miss your youth. You'll miss your courage.
8. Live the life YOU want to live. At the end of life, regret is more painful than mistakes.
15 things to do with your mother while she is still alive. One day, you’ll wish you had.
1. Ask her about her life before you were born. She had dreams, fears, and a whole world that existed before she became mom.
2. Record her voice while she’s doing something ordinary like Cooking, Scolding, Laughing. One day, that voice will feel priceless.
3. Ask her what the hardest phase of her life was. She’ll probably talk about sacrifice without calling it sacrifice.
4. Learn one recipe she makes without measuring anything. Food is how many mothers express love. Appreciate the food she makes, you don’t know deep inside she will feel very happy.
5. Take photos of her doing everyday things.
Not posed or dressed up. Only Candid. These will mean more than any perfect picture.
6. Tell her thank you for things she never got credit for. She remembers everything, even if she never mentions it.
7. Tell her you’re proud of her.
Most mothers hear complaints far more than appreciation.
8. Ask her what she worries about the most.
Chances are, it’s still you.
9. Sit with her without checking your phone.
Just be present. That’s rare now.
10.Ask her what she wanted to be when she was young and listen without interrupting.
11. Hug her for no reason. Don’t rush it.
https://t.co/wuxftUs97U her even when you have nothing to say. One day, you’ll miss the sound of her answering.
13.Take a photo of just the two of you together. Frame it.
14.Ask her about her parents. Her stories keep generations alive.
15.Tell her something you’re struggling with.
No matter how old you are, it still matters to her that she can protect you.
If your mother is still alive, please do at least one thing from this list today. You’ll never regret it & take care of her health.
RT this for someone who still has time.
I delivered pizza for 5 years. You learn a lot about people by how they open their front door. It was Christmas Eve. I was bitter. I wanted to be with my friends, but I needed the tips. My last run was to a motel on the edge of town. Not a nice place. I knocked on Room 104. The door opened, and a little girl, maybe 6, stood there in pajamas. Behind her, her dad was sitting on the edge of the bed, head in his hands. The room was empty except for a few bags. “Pizza!” the girl squealed. The dad looked up. He forced a smile. He came to the door and counted out exact change. crumpled ones and quarters. “Keep the change,” he said. It was 50 cents. I handed over the box. It was just a small cheese pizza. “Merry Christmas,” he said quietly. I walked back to my car. I sat there for a minute. I looked at the $80 in tips I’d made that night. I thought about that little girl. I drove to the 24-hour grocery store. I bought a precooked ham, a pie, a gallon of milk, and a cheap stuffed bear. I went back to Room 104. I knocked. The dad opened it, looking confused. “delivery mistake,” I said. “Manager said this goes with the order. Bonus for the holiday.” He looked at the bags. He looked at me. He knew it wasn’t a mistake. His chin started to quiver. He didn’t say a word. He just reached out and shook my hand, gripping it hard. I drove home with $0 in my pocket. Best Christmas I ever had. The world is hard. Be soft.

Unpopular opinion: Men are naturally more submissive then women. They make better soldiers bc of this. As women we make much better leaders. We don't navigate from our egos and we can listen, that's why we excel in law, art, teaching, business, engineering and healthcare
