the worst part about following people on twitter because you know them, as opposed to following people based off their posts, means the already fractured, minimal sense of curating your timeline is diminished even more. like, not even gonna start with..., i mean just like, i know people but not that well so following seems like something i should do but then i regret it cause the content they share i don't really care to look at. i know i can just close the app, and i do that, but the mindless scrolling gets more mindless as the content is less and less self-curated. and for people i'm freinds with i can make the sacrfice, but for people who i've met a handful of times, idk, just seems masochistic on my end to not unfollow or at least mute

this isn't really that big of an issue in the grand scheme of things. i just wanted something to get the blogging ball rolling

i have my ollie down for the most part. well the still one. the rolling one, my pop needs work, but i should have it soon as well. i noticed that one of my wheels is a bit smaller than the rest. the color is different, so the size difference isn't too surprising, but i wonder if it affects the board in any significant way

i've been taking nine-mg of melatonin to help me sleep before six a.m. for a few days now. makes dreams more intense. like, i'll remember them more in the morning. i'll still forget them by the end of the day, but it does feel like i'm dreaming more

i have to roadtrip to pennsylvania again this week. i'm fine with that. looking forward to it actually. we might stop by niagara falls on the way to our destination. there's a chance we do it on the way back. not sure yet. even if i don't, i still want to get out of the house again

i started reading 'how to hide an empire' today. i got about fifty pages in. it's fine so far. i've had this since last august or september. is was a gift from the department at school. i might have more to say about it another day

i'm making a list of all the things i take a stance against. a, 'things im anti' list. have the basics like anti-imperialist, anti-america, but also more lighthearted ones like anti-soy milk and anti-rounding your height up. it's a list that will grow as i find myself in situations where i feel i have to take a stance on something

i finaly sold those tie-dye pants on depop. i don't want to get too specific with it, but i dropped the price on them a bit as a like, thanks for buying these thing. what i didn't realize was just how much depop takes from me. i got about half of what they paid after the shipping cost and the service fee. still, it's the only income i've had in weeks. gonna mail it out tomorrow

oh right, i tried to make choripan and chimichurri yesterday. it came out fine. not as good as i remember them. it was my first attempt anyways so i wasn't too bothered

suddenly, i have a feeling that everything i typed on here is 'pointless' and that i should delete it. will take that as a sign to just turn my computer off and go to bed
