cleaning your room and realizing that you should never buy anything else
why do we have so much stuff, why is it so hard to clean all this stuff, why are we so excited to get new stuff, and why does stuff say so much about who we are

i've been making an effort to get rid of the stuff i have in my room & don't use, and at times i find myself paralyzed because i have no idea what to do with it all and why i decided to buy it in the first place. it's very frustrating. can't help but think of how much money i might have saved had i been more mindful

sameoldstori I completely agree with everything you said. Sometimes while I clean I try and remember how much everything was and add up the sum I could’ve saved. But at least we’re more mindful now!

gpcdiamond for sure!! if nothing else at least it serves as a good argument against overconsuming in the future

cinema clubs
went to a cinema club - this is what it's all about. community is real! even in the city! it's not all over. i watched natural enemies and boxing helena with my friend and ally charlie. the first was awesome, the second was less so - but arguably more fun. sherilyn fenn is not a star, she is something else entirely.

Im not sure about the internet, but i’m sure more people are feeling this
I was just thinking of this recently, of how oversaturated the internet feels. There’s too many platforms, content, and ads being shoved down our throats. I don’t know where the internet is headed but I feel like there is a growing general sentiment of fatigue.We’re also discovering ways to combat this fatigue, like lessening our screentime or simplifying our use of the internet (like this platform.) I would love to see this general sentiment dictate where the internet goes instead of the internet telling us what to consume.

Brazil (the movie)
I suddenly thought of this movie because Brazil (the song) started playing. I wouldn’t even know how to begin describing this and anyway it’s better to jump in without knowing too much about it, which is exactly how I watched this.

Physical media
I’m suddenly collecting cds again. I want to really have and own the things I love, and cherish them by listening to them again and again.
Instagram recently deleted some of our ig stories, and I realized that we can’t rely on these online platforms as our only way of storing our memories and media. I plan to go through old phone photos and pick which ones to print out.
