go on more walks. walk for no reason. walk to solve a problem. walk to blow off steam. walk to get outside. walk to listen, read, and learn. walk to escape distractions. walk to improve your health. walk to think. a simple walking habit can change absolutely everything.

Remember "Reduce, Reuse, Recycle" ? I feel like there's been a distancing from the "reduce" and "reuse" part and a favoritism towards "recycle" by corporate American.
Capitalism can still thrive with recycling in the mix. You buy Plastic Thing 1, throw it away after one use, and they take that and recycle it into Plastic Thing 2 and sell it back to you. All while continuing to harm the environment.
Reusing puts a damper on things. They can't sell you Plastic Thing 2 when you're still using Plastic Thing 1. Plastic forks, for example- there is literally no reason why you can't reuse plastic forks more than once (aside from maybe microplastics, but it's too late for that)
Reducing is the one everyone wants to ignore. Just don't buy Plastic Thing 1. You don't need Plastic Thing 1. Pick up a set of metal forks and use those for years. Convenience is killing the planet

hi my loves, I've been going through a bit of a rough patch with my placement, I'm thinking that psychology may not be the career for me. I come home and I'm really drained, don't have energy, have been forgetting things and making a lot of mistakes which is not usually like me. I still have 6-7 weeks of placement yet so I'll keep an eye on if it turns around, but I'm grateful for this information because if I never tried, I never would've known. I'm also really grateful in this situation for twenty one pilots. I saw them live last month and their music has really been helping me get through, just like it did when I was a teenager. I guess I've been coming full circle in more ways than one. just wanted to share a little update with you all, sending lots of love as always, even if I'm a little less active than usual <3

this is going to sound like such a little sibling ass take but i genuinely believe that being a little bit annoying is actually a greater sign of maturity and self awareness than being universally likeable and on good terms with everyone
