Nothing too trauma bond-esque or full on but being refreshingly honest early on in a friendship is such a good way to build trust. i love when I first meet someone and you can tell that there’s no “I must impress this person” filter on

making friends and taking the time to learn about people and their vibe and not retreating out of fear of being overbearing or the fear of unreciprocated feelings.. mmm i like that

Speaking to a friendship aspect: finding my people was initially exhilarating. Being seen and accepted, feeling joyful and excited to spend time together, feeling like a team in the world rather than competitors are all things my first experiences with my best friends felt like. But there were also points where we pissed each other off or hurt each other or grew apart. what set apart these Friendships was being able to talk about it and wanting to be open about our hurt or anger. We reciprocally put in work to stay connected. I could trust my friends would listen to me and try to do better. i could Also trust that I would be forgiven when I needed to do better. To this day, they are the most transformative relationships I’ve had in adulthood and I’m always so grateful for them.

the FIP station lets you listen live to loads of different genres, with no ads and minimal radio host chat (and when it happens, it’s all in French so it sounds cool anyway). Best way to get out of the music algo and find some new shit!

I’ve been having big writer’s block recently as well, and I’ve been finding that rewriting things that have happened to me is a good way to just slowly inch back towards creativity. often I’ll write about a “what if” situation - like this situation actually happened, but what if the ending was different? what if that friend decided to confront her bf about the cheating and threw out all of his stuff while he was at work? what if I did respond to that random ad I saw in the paper?

Bonus points if you’re wearing noise cancelling headphones and listening to some moody boards of Canada mix at the same time
