telling your friends that they're hot

i was having a really down week where i felt like i was just fucking up the lincoln logs left and right. against my desire to rot i decided to go to a show last night where i knew my friends would be. i don't know what i did to my hair but for some reason all of them kept separately saying that i not only looked hot but was getting noticeably hotter. instant 180 to my mood and mental health. i feel so strong now i could kill god with no remorse. yesterday was world mental health day and i saw and tried a lot of the things that were posted about how to take care of yourself and had no success, but nothing works half as well as being told you're hot. so if you have a friend who looks like they're down, tell them they're sexy, they probably really need to hear it.

Being hot in an accessible way

When hot people are friendly, it makes the people they’re talking to feel hotter about themselves.

Being obsessed with myself

You want to know what I’m fucking with right now?? MYSELF! Nothing makes me feel more powerful than when I feel good about myself. I’m certainly no stranger to feeling down about myself or not believing in myself, but I can usually pull myself out of those slumps with a face of makeup and a great outfit. Put on those jeans!! That skirt!! Those shoes!! Whatever makes you feel hot as shit, feeling hot is one of the only things we have anymore! I feel hot in black tights and a black skirt! Throw it on, and own your socially-distanced gathering!!! YOU are smart, cool, funny, and stunning!! And make sure to tell your friends they’re hot too!

I’M MY MOST PRESENT WHEN I TALK TO MYSELF

it also helps my inner voice be friendly to me. i seldom say the hurtful things out loud.

RUNNING INTO AN OLD ACQUAINTANCE AND DECIDING TO EXPLORE A FRIENDSHIP

my mind no longer operates in the paradigm that, in my youth, convinced me that some (most) people were too [insert socially favorable adjective here] to be friends with me. as a result i was timid and insecure. i knew a lot of people and i thought they would never be interested in knowing ~me~.
in the past 5 years i’ve made close and genuine friendships with people i had previously put on a pedestal simply because i thought they were better than me.
omg i read a poem this morning that goes something like: “devotion is not love, it creates distance. you can’t hold someone from a pedestal.”
