Hey Collective, thanks for everything this year! To all you beautiful people who make my phone a nicer place to be, and especially to those who I’ve gone on to meet irl or speak to on the daily. You’re all awesome and deserve the best year ahead.

Botany facts: seaweed are not actually considered plants, and not even form a monophyletic group. But they still pretty cool though.

Meditating on my singleness led me to an odd conclusion: twinks we have become "unfashionable"

“A Hope” by me In the poise of life, I want to be an Undying petal A radiant messenger of beauty eternal With delicate breeze, I drift with grace Every feeling express and embrace Amidst of chaos, A reminder of sonder In field of existence, An essence of wander As i gazed into the mirror, the reflection before me smiled Echoing the words of my inner child So let me be again that petal, forever in flight A symbol of imperfection yet a beacon of light.

My friend was out partying for new years and messaged me “they played bring me the horizon and I was like I need milly” just after midnight and at the end of the day everything will always be okay because I am loved.

Go for it, shoot your shot. Get rejected 1000 times, 10000 times. Just do it. Shielding isn’t getting you anywhere

Still pretty cold out, ice fog is so bad though. It’s almost Silent Hill bad. If my phone camera wasn’t messed up I’d take a picture. 😖

only been here a week and i already ditched my other ad-ridden socials. the social dynamics on this app are sooo different than what i’m used to. it’s like they want us all to actually show our real personality and connect. thanks @cal!

Journal prompt: How can you feel more confident if you’re not the stereotypical standard of beauty? If you want to improve your looks: - be active - focus on your sleep & nutrition. If you want to feel better about yourself: - focus on your energy, your values. - cultivate your inner world. - learn how to feel safety within yourself. Confidence is the blend of both.

Someone needs to put a blanket ban on actors getting noticeable cosmetic work bro. How the fuck am I meant to believe you’re genuinely a person in like fkn 1800 when you have fuck ass veneers and filler. Get OUT of my face

Maslow’s hierarchy of needs was written for people to embody them. Only when you are secure in yourself you can find fulfillment. Focus on your physical needs & building a secure sense of self, the rest is given once you work on those. Why? You’re no longer performing for validation when you feel safety Besos 💋

Someone on Grindr said ‘invite me to the cottage’ and I stupidly replied ‘don’t have a cottage unfortunately’… I only now, a day later, understood the Heated Rivalry reference 🙃 I swear I’m not that terrible at flirting

Honestly a new year is not so much of a celebration but a relief. A breathe of what I could hope for is a slow calm start to coping and carrying on to find a purpose. I wish everyone joy this year in what ever form. ✌🏾

I don’t believe you, no, not really, and it scares me. Maybe it’s not you I’m afraid of, but the idea of you, the shape you take in my mind. And you don’t care. Of course you don’t. Why would you? You’re a creature from another realm, a fiction I keep feeding until it feels real enough to hurt me. Isn’t that where you live, darling? In that other realm where you fuck your lovely whores and never look back? That’s the problem. I’m too jealous to keep up with your ghosts. I’m a crier, darling. That’s what I’ve learned. That’s what I am.

You are not seeking love, What you seek is safety. Because when you feel safe, love is given. You no longer stay performing in relationships, there’s no more chase or avoidance. You’re safe, and you can build anything meaningful when you feel safe. Ask yourself, what would it be like if I felt safe being myself? Cry it out if you need to.
