assuaging my travel anxiety by shifting into “bourdain mode” where i get really tired and jaded and as miserable as possible and then eat the best meal of my life

The OBSESSION with identity is so crazy like the view that when you do something it immediately becomes part of your identity and all the parts of you have to click together to become “person who wakes up early” or “person who reads” no you can literally just do something without restructuring your whole performance of personhood around it. I don’t know what to tell you except that you will never be able to have an entirely unfractured view of yourself or that you will be able to rationalize all the complex parts of yourself into the phrase “person who x” like you should just be doing things without performing them. Or aestheticizing them. Just try different things on and keep what works for you. Otherwise you will never learn and grow!

People on TikTok are too pretty. It genuinely creeps me out.
Y'all don’t get it. It’s the filters but It’s not the filters. Everyone is too well dressed. Their rooms are too put together. Everything feels performative. These aren’t spaces where people live these are stages and these aren’t people they’re actors. Everyone is too charismatic and good on film. Everyone has a quirky backstory and a fun little visual design. It’s saccharine and sickening and it gives me a headache.
Even the thirst traps feel bloodless and sterile. Endless perfectly chiseled white men in effortless and perfectly composed settings doing algorithmically generated non threatening actions. White women who are thin and exist. Everyone is beautiful to the point of sterile unfuckability.
good morning to the invisible power structures that dominate my life
