Whoever said money can’t buy happiness clearly has never spent the day going around to like 5 different thrift/antique stores and getting a bunch of random shit to hang up on their walls and put on shelves

I have so many random little trinkets (small paintings for my bathroom, jewellery dishes and even a little jewellery box shaped like a cushion with a cunty heel on top) — all of which were unexpected, slowly-collected finds at random thrift stores.
I second the previous comment about slow articulation. If you have the essentials, and are craving individual-niches — take your time :) which is prescriptive advice, but the effects of delayed gratification are like how paintings go up in a museum — with time, shuffling between here n there, and lots of patience
I also like going to winners or marshals or home sense for little strange things

it’s never gone badly for me — i am always glad that i impulse bought antiques! do not be afraid of impulse buying antiques….everything made pre reagan is cooler, more chic, and virtually indestructible.

It’s incredible how many people genuinely think they are boring. There have been so many times I’ve spoken with people and they confess that they think that they haven’t done much with their life, or that they don’t have much interesting to talk about, but it’s almost never the case.
From what I can tell, it’s often caused by a lack of knowing thyself. Or maybe a low self esteem? I’ve been through it too, and it is so so not true for anyone.
You’ve done so much living. Why do you feel like your story is not worth telling? I know you’ve gone through some crazy shit once or twice. if you really haven’t, what’s stopping you from getting out there and creating stories to talk about? Start small! go to a coffee shop once a week. See if they have any clubs to join, and try that out! you’ll be making memories in NO TIME.
If you have trouble finding meaningful/fun conversation, just remember that the effort must flow both ways. You are merely just working with what the other person is providing you, and if they aren’t giving you anything to work with, it’s not your fault. You aren’t boring, you are just around people who dont vibe with you. And that’s okay! Not every person is going to be your specific kind of person. Plus, if you aren’t having fun talking to them, why does it matter if they like you? the much cooler people who value your input are just around the corner. I promise.
One day you’ll be able to shine your beautiful personality on someone who is equally as bright you are, you magnificent comet, you.
