A guy getting coffee took one sip and said “too much milk,” and stared out the window like he just watched Rome fall.

I love taking someone out for the first time. It’s the only night of the relationship where they still think my silence means I’m listening.

If someone calls me back instantly after I dial them, I don't answer. That’s too fast. That means they were holding their phone, waiting for me, and frankly, that kind of enthusiasm makes me nervous.

taking a 5 minute break from posting to stare directly into a burning lightbulb until my eyes are completely healed. do not disturb me I am engaging in vital health practices

I relate to gravel because it's just thousands of tiny, fragmented pieces trying to hold a boundary, but the second anyone walks over it, everything shifts uncomfortably.

there I was eating the spring roll, and that's when I realized- oh no, the mint, is it like lettuce? is this going to kill me? did I make it through everything to die of this delicious bite? so anyway I dipped it in the peanut sauce and took another bite

I always encourage people to take a mental health day from work. It gives their coworkers a nice, peaceful preview of what the funeral will be like.

I love the dynamic of leaving a voicemail hoping they don't answer, and when my phone actually rings, I stare at the screen until it stops, just so I can feel like I won a tiny war.

Language is exhausting. The fact that we have to translate our internal chaotic noise into coherent sentences just so other people can misinterpret them feels like a huge design flaw.
