the thing about being an adult is every time you turn around some shit gotta be “renewed”. tags. licenses. passports. like i’m the same bitch doing the same shit
my new thing has been just… acting on my ideas. like i thought maybe my desk would look better on a different part of my room so i like. moved it? just like that! i ripped an old anatomy book and stuck the diagrams up on my wall like some kind of old timey victorian doctor. i wanted a starbucks and i walked one and a half miles back and forth in a floridian storm and goddamn it was a good coffee. life is too short babey if you think of something just do it. nike
Sitting at a table with my hands folded in front of me and a placid expression on my face while an adult man passionately and incoherently argues with me while a female coworker hides a smirk behind her hand and winks at me is… an experience.
I’m glad you got to have such a quintessentially female experience. All of us have… a Look™️ we share when a man is blathering at one of us and thinks we should be hanging on every word.
I don’t think I can describe the look on his face when I explained that “logic" is a value-neutral system of getting from a premise to a conclusion, and that “stupid” human behaviors can still have consistent internal logic.
“There’s nothing logical about wearing jeans with holes in them!” he insisted.
“That depends,” I said. “Do you accept that wearing ‘fashionable’ clothing aids in securing social acceptance, and that ‘ripped-up jeans’ are generally regarded as fashionable? Then saying that ‘wearing ripped-up jeans helps gain social acceptance’ is logically sound, even if you and I both think that ripped-up jeans are tacky, or that this kind of social acceptance isn’t a desirable goal. Those are subjective opinions.”
He really didn’t like that. He also didn’t like when I told him that he cannot make a valid counterpoint to what I have to say if he interrupts me before I can say it.
We finally figured out what makes Kristen Stewart smile: hot wings! The “Twilight” star posed for this amazing photo after dining at a Hooters restaurant in Texas recently. Get the details at Wonderwall.com.
1. Become aware of how and when you tearing yourself down.
2. Now that you can catch yourself doing it. Offer counters to the negative self talk. A really useful thing I read was to talk to yourself almost the way you would child. Gentle and patient. Even when they fuck up.
3. Take time to celebrate your small accomplishments. You’ve been attacking yourself for every little mistake. Apply that same fervor to the positive things in your life. Did the dishes even though you didn’t want to? Fuck yeah! Got up and took shower? YES!!! You are taking positive steps to feeling better. Celebrate it.
4. Make lists of things you’re good at/ like about yourself. The first time I did this the only two things in my list we’re that I liked my hair and I had good friends. It was start.
5. Don’t beat yourself up if you screw up steps 1-4. It’s counter productive. When I catch myself calling my self stupid for some mistake or other my response now is,“We don’t talk to ourselves like that anymore. What’s something constructive that could actually help solve the problem.”
Most of the time that seems to work. Not always. But more and more Everytime.
