i redecorated my apartment recently ❤️ for the first time in a few years. i held off on changing it up because i’ve been hoping to move out and into an actual house soon, but the market is a wreck so i’m staying here indefinitely. if i’m gonna be stuck here i might as well keep the decor up to date with my life and tastes 💘 i had some artwork hung up before but it was pretty haphazard and just felt kinda unintentional and scattered so i made sure to take the time to arrange everything nicely and plan out where i was going to hang stuff.
my walls are a combination of antiques (postcards, paintings, bottles, etc), artwork i’ve done myself, and little pieces of memories and meaningful things. i cannot stand overhead lighting so i’ve strung up my lights and keep my candles lit. it’s nice to be in a space i’ve curated for myself and i’m happy with how it’s turned out ✨
the fact that there are advertisers out there who heard "maximalism" and decided it meant "minimalism + color palette" is going to make me peel my skin off of my skull and chew it like beef jerky

Because just now I was reading a bit in the trich subreddit, and as I scrolled with my right hand I could literally feel my left hand want to pull hair. So I was like “No. Don’t.” and the feeling stopped. Then I put my attention back into reading whatever post I was on and the urge was instantly back the moment I stopped focusing on not pulling. I actually nearly pulled before I noticed and stopped.
I can’t tell yet if reading about other people’s experiences is helpful or not. On one hand it makes me want to pull, but on the other hand it makes me hyperaware of the urge to pull so I’m more likely to choose not to rather than absentmindedly do it. So I guess it’s neutrally good?
Anyway. I gotta go get box braids to see if this will help me fight the urge.
