This time last year, I had to get my lower right wisdom tooth privately removed. This was after ignoring about a year of pain until I absolutely had to go. It grew into a full size tooth, it was sideways though and mostly trapped under my gums. Looking back on it, getting that removed was kinda like those videos of a horse's hoof getting scraped off until they get to the problem area.
Just to be clear, I love the dentist. But there were no NHS dentists so I was reluctant to do anything about it. But alas, the same-ish problem plagues me. My lower left tooth is growing straight but half of it is covered under my gums, and I just had popcorn. 😭
i just hate the concept of wisdom teeth. because like there's no space for you, so why are you growing? also I've lived 20 years without you. I dont need you. you know you don't need to be here. its just making us both uncomfortable. man people who never get them are lucky.
a rant and a half here, but like what the helly.

Wisdom teeth aren’t like other teeth, they grow in a place where they will cause complications later on.

I feel you on not trusting Big Tooth.
wisdom teeth surgery is actually p chill though because everyone has sympathy for you and you get to sit in bed for 4 days and eat ice cream and mashed potatoes. don’t skimp on what they prescribe you! that ish does hurt…..

“Please do not be cynical. I hate cynicism – it's my least favorite quality, and it doesn't lead anywhere. Nobody in life gets exactly what they thought they were going to get. But if you work really hard and you're kind, amazing things will happen.” dealing with disappointment but remembered this and realised it might not work out the way i planned out but that's okay. made it my lockscreen to remember it.
also context - NBC was really fucking him over here. it was his last tonight show episode I think, so it means a lot that he specifically was like cynicism leads nowhere.

Great film directed by Gurinder Chadha.
About a British Indian girl who joins a women's football team which her parents don't approve of.
This film made waves for British Asian representation.
It does a great job of balancing social commentary with comedy.
