like wattpad levels of bad. makes your braincells evaporate bad. the plot makes zero sense bad. hating every single character bad. ranting to yourself abt it in the notes app bad. bonus points if it's NOT a romance but some other genre, those are admittedly harder to come across but so worth it. makes you believe you will eventually get published if someone let that text out of the basement.

as always, moderation is key β but you can learn a lot from a bad book. Pacing, structure, character, dialogue... Just make sure you have a chaser, even if itβs something youβve read a million times.

writing is sometimes the only way to find a voice, and when you are surrounded by people you despise- maybe they despise you back or maybe you are gravely misunderstood or misinterprated whatever it is- reading other individuals writing, they're way of seeing the world can be incredibly grounding. in a world where conformity and placidity is becoming increasingly trendy sometimes reading something thats just so pointed, so passionate can be very grounding. and even the angry vitriol-filled peices can be calming because you can read it and say - 'hey someone actually cares about this!'. so i recommend reading more- not necessarily books but articles, blog posts and why not tweets??

seeing a movie on a huge screen (as most directors intended it to be seen) and just indulging in approximately 2 hours of pure uninterrupted escapism without anyone to worry about (plus supporting your local cinema at the same time). works best with "slow" films where the scenes linger. total bliss.

i don't know who needs to hear this (me. i need to hear this. i wrote this rec for me.) but late-stage capitalism influencers reaaaally want you to believe you need to have this whole grand 15-step skincare routine with all the little gadgets and gizmos or you are doing something fundamentally wrong. hear me out here - you are fine. the only thing they are contributing to is the ever-growing need to consume and the systematic destruction of your skin barrier. as long as you wash your face regularly and put on some sunscreen every morning, the rest is mostly just for the vibes.
