i made jokes saying “damn that would suck to be someone who can’t smoke because it gives them anxiety” for so long that now I’m one of those people who cant smoke because it gives them anxiety :-)
having an abusive parent that breaks their back to provide for you is SO tumultuous like how can i hate you when you built a life for me from dust but also how can i not when you’ve hurt me so badly
Don’t get it twisted I agree it’s so important to save money if you can afford to. But I genuinely also think it’s important to spend what you’ve worked hard for. Buy yourself nice things, go to nice places, invest in yourself. We work to live, not live to work
