I don't need a Longchamp bag, I can just finally afford a Longchamp bag 25 years after all the cool girls in college had one and that is not the same thing (but man that medium in olive would be nice for fall...)

I finished 11/22/62 by Stephen King and my plan was to watch the miniseries but based on what I’ve heard it totally misses the point of what is actually a beautiful story about love and sacrifice so I think I’m just gonna skip it

As a teen in the 90s/college girl in the early aughts, it has taken me a long time to come around to the comfort and style of a giant tee shirt, but I’ve finally embraced it just in time for the return of the baby tee (I won’t be joining, I wish you well my babies).

Sometimes I think about the fact that my first car, brand new in 2000, had a monthly payment of $278.79 for 5 years, an amount I (a teenager who lived with my parents) could reasonably pay while working minimum wage at Target while still affording to have fun with my friends.

Cannot figure out the opening to a book that I otherwise have fully planned and thus have not been able to write a word. I just need to find the entrance but it eludes me! I’m walking around the outside of this thing shouting “let me IN goddammit!”

Also, the thing about people being rude to me on here is that… even I don’t know which me I am from one moment to the next. Earnest whimsical poet OR a sentient sawed-off shotgun? It’s a coin toss. We’ll find out together. So, be chill with me. Nice even.

All the best moments of the World Cup happen in spite of FIFA. They remain a rotten, greedy organisation that'll happily destroy the sport for an extra dollar. Shout out to the rowing vikings, traffic coned statues, cross-cultural shirt-swaps, the bars drunk dry & fan community that rose above it.
