We never truly understand the weight of time until the moment of parting arrives. When it does, we find ourselves standing there and helplessly—turned fragile, caught by the long, intricate threads of memory, and suddenly falling into silence. Only when we finally come to our senses do we realise that some things are already gone, and all we can do is cherish.

we let ourselves go and then gaslight ourselves into thinking we can’t ever let ourselves back in.

“which imbecile ever thought it a good idea to base social, political, and economic systems on the assumption that humans will act purposefully and correctly, even in their own best interests. Look around us, at economies, ideologies. All have failed because their systems assume we will do the right thing.” Excerpt From Notes From Underground by Fyodor Dostoyevsky

Maybe Both I don’t know if I lost or I won, perhaps it was both. Because I gave, I broke, I learned— and somehow, I became more whole. I stopped pretending it didn’t hurt, and started being honest. I faced myself, quietly, and saw who I was beneath it all. People are good— I still believe that. But sometimes, we’re just not good to each other. And that’s okay. Because from it, I learned that kindness isn’t weakness, and forgiveness is freedom. The wound remains, but it’s not pain anymore— it’s proof. Proof that I fell, I grew, and that life’s biggest lessons don’t come from winning, but from finding peace in both.

Quick vulnerable post: As much as I love living in San Francisco, one of the things about living in a transient city like SF is just how quickly your friends will get up and move away. Think I’ve had like 7 friends in the last 3 months decide to move to NYC or elsewhere. And another 2-3 are moving away in January 2026. Like I still have a handful of friends here that I am grateful for and I’m mostly comfortable being alone and what not but man… it starting to feel lonely not gonna lie 😭. When I’m out walking around and I see groups of people hanging out doing fun activities together, having dinners and what not, I do get a little jealous because I’m watching my circle is shrink with each day. And despite what people say, it’s lowkey hard to make new genuine friends, at least in my experience. Sorry for the long post but just needed somewhere to get out these thoughts.

686 Tried Ivan’s Ramen and the broth was really rich, and the slender noodles go so well together…by far one of the best I’ve had. The sides, however, leaves much to be desired, and was not hitting the same as the ramen itself.

Interesting app so far, but I hope the algorithm adjusts after a while, the default recommendations are veeery caucasian and twink-y.
