My mom played this song a lot while I had a little desk in her office/bedroom during middle school. It always takes me back to reading Homestuck fanfiction and scrolling through Tumblr, trying to find my place on the internet for the first time. Similarly when flower crowns and thigh gaps were a thing!

This song always used to play at my single-mother’s workplace, where I spent a lot of time as a wee gal. This song used to make me transcend and still does tbh. I feel so cool when I’m listening, like I’m walking Rick Owens during FFW. I spent a lot of time not knowing this song because it would make me physically ill when I heard it, the amount of nostalgia it would elicit in me. Life is too short to be weighed down by an appreciation of the past, look at it lovingly and with hope for an even better future.

Only started when I got a regular 9-5 and could adjust my schedule to wake up a little earlier. Not great at it, but I try when I can. Notice what you can't usually when you're a nightowl. Right now, birds are singing, maintenance guys are driving up to houses, the breeze is cool for the season, and a big ass bumblebee just checked me out a little.
Feels like less of a commitment than 30 minutes, feels more substantial than 15. "Write every day!!!!" is advice I've seen in every comedy book, self-help video, whatever, but didn't really internalize until a few months ago. No big ritual attached, no pressure no strings, just put on a timer and write on your phone, laptop, notebook, napkin, whatever you can find. It's a good way to gather your thoughts, slow down for a bit, and look around your own little mind palace for a moment. I like to do it the first chance I get at work. I put it on my Outlook calendar as BUSY: PLANNING DAY (I'm never ever planning my day)(Well, maybe only sometimes!) Plus, you get to look back and recognize the, y'know, patterns?
I was taught how to play a few years ago by my evil ex girlfriend. This is the best website to play it on. Great timewaster, plus playing a card game that has a german name just makes you feel so delicious, doesn't it?
