Reading an interview about Priya Parker’s new book The Art of Fighting, and she’s talking about how conflict is needed to “figure out together what we're about”. My best friend of 6 years and I only had one fight before he cut me off unexpectedly in a really shitty way last year and I was blindsided

Know it’s kinda bullshit but I always feel a bit ashamed saying I’m a house twink and not working even though literally everyone thinks it’s goals
Read a thread last year about how couples maintain their relationships and that’s how my husband and I started a daily first boop competition. Sometimes it’s a sneak attack, sometimes it’s offered, other times we literally fight to get the other’s snoot, and it’s one of my fave rituals
I think my least favourite part of this app is having to rack my brain to figure out who this was and not even being able to see the messages I’ve sent
I miss how on tumblr everyone tagged their selfies #me so you didn’t have to scroll through all their shit posts to see their thirst traps
Had to take my wedding ring off before I could go get him to put it down my throat (the nice Dr at the hospital who used a scope to investigate my pancreas)
Me: idk why it’s so hard to get my 3 year old nephew to eat, shouldn’t little kids want to eat? Also me: *skips lunch because I was doing more interesting things and then ran out of time*
My brain is being very mean to me this week and I would like it to stop, please
Do I have any Chicago based oomfs? Looks like I’m going to be in town at the end of the week
Having family visit is nice but it’s been a week since I’ve had any alone time and I am starting to go stir crazy
Couldn’t tell if my new friend (with whom I share a name, Italian heritage and riding motorbikes) was also queer or not but he just invited me to go see nascar literally during SF pride… so I’m pretty sure he’s straight
Spent yesterday procrasticleaning but god it’s nice to have a clean house
Hot take: surprises can often be selfish. I have a friend that never tells her family she’s visiting so she can surprise them. They get a pleasant surprise but it’s stressful because they couldn’t plan (so it’s not really good for them and it seems more about her feeling good for surprising them)
Sitting in highway traffic in a car is a special kind of hell when you know you could be on a motorbike enjoying life
I swear every second time I go to type a ? I accidentally type a v
Has anyone been using the Grindr AI features? I’m super curious to hear about your experiences as someone who studied dating apps
I feel like I have a part time job providing emotional/technical support atm. Between my mother, father, stepmother, great uncle, and the partner of a very close family friend who died a few months ago, I feel like I spend at least 10 hours a week on the phone talking them through various things 🥲
“It’s going to be a long 1:45, isn’t it?”: my husband 13 minutes into an Italian film after the third time I’ve paused it to explain something…
Editing photos from a very emotional day that I’ve been putting off for two months and playing very loud Arctic Monkeys while I do so is helping me not just break down
