“I don’t know what my goals are, no. Thanks for asking.”
#i recently just broke out this cycle. my biggest advice is that if you have the opportunity/time/energy/money… volunteer.#my internship was at a nonprofit and i spent a lot of time with volunteers helping guests and it was incredibly fulfilling#especially if you can volunteer in something tangentially that you enjoy! if u like to draw maybe see if summer art camps need help#(theyd probably pay you there too haha)#the next one is cold email/message people who have job titles youre interested and schedule calls with them#learn about their company and job and see if you’d actually like it#and casually mention if you’ve applied to something there and youre looking for more information#finally don’t have crazy high expectations of what you want. this is what i kept doing and it was an issue for me#don’t only accept the best. you can have a wonderful time at something that isn’t ‘your dream’#go to charity navigator and start looking for places to volunteer fr fr. u can be the difference in ur community

Hi, hope you're doing well. This is regarding the zine submission for lesbian art and writing that you were making. I just came across on Tumblr, and realised that I just missed the deadline. I saw that the google form is still open, so would you be willing to accept a few late submissions?
No problem if you don't! Have a good one, love the work you're doing!
yeah!!! feel free to submit if the form is still open :D
ANGIE ONLINE WOAHH :DDD

I wish it was easier to talk about mobile phone addiction without sounding like a boomer
Phone addiction (specifically social media addiction) is real and it's not a joke and it is everywhere. Phone addiction literally reduces the grey matter of your brain. It's no secret young adults are more anxious and depressed than ever; more lonely than ever; more aimless than ever. Do you remember being a hugely creative kid, and feel like that spark is gone now? Can't sleep at night? Yeah, your GABA receptors are probably fucked from getting hits every 60 seconds from checking your phone. What's your daily screen time like? 6 hours? 12? These are common numbers. It's insane! It's insane and it's deliberate. Companies make more money from you when you're brain is fried from scrolling 10 hours a day through meaningless content.
But it can be reversed. Start small. If you hit this post then take 5 minutes to put your phone down in another room and do something. Do a crossword. Go for a walk. Be present! CBT is a hugely successful therapy for phone addiction and can even reverse the damage done to your brain.
I get it. I have dozens of beloved friends online, and I'm more informed now than I would ever have been without access to the Internet, but wouldn't it be nice to wonder sometimes? Wouldn't it be nice to be able to go outside and not itch for your phone screen? To have that creativity and confidence back? Start small. Start now.
