aired out the flat, replaced the too big compost bin with a smaller and cuter one and folded clean clothes in the morning

Time: ~ 30min

Media: half of a program on a local radio station

I love blacktober art but some of y'all are not being honest with yourselves. Do you really think that man who barely bathes would have clean, recently re-twisted, glossy dreads if he was Black? Look into your heart. Be honest with yourselves. That anime man would be ashy and in desperate need of a shape up if he was melanated.

Bon matin~♪(or it will be, by the time you should see this!) I have a few questions to ask!

What is your least favourite colour?

Were there any book series you really liked as a child?

Do you dislike any twst characters (other than the incompetent crow, obviously)

And what is your favourite way to eat potatoes? I think this says a lot about a person ^w^

I hope you have a lovely, lovely day!

Da questions! [I just woke up like 40 minutes ago]

What is your least favourite colour?

Neon yellow, it hurts my eyes. Really, a lot of neon colours, but only if it's really large; it's just an eye strain.

Were there any book series you really liked as a child?

PERCY JACKSON! Was and still am obsessed with them. That though is more so the tween years than proper child.

But when I was a kid? I forget the exact title of the books but it was something like, Did You Know? and I had like every single one; one on plants, one on the ocean, history [I knew about the Rose War when I was like 6]. There was another series, which I also forget the name of, but it was a picture/chapter book on historical figures; my favourite ones were Marie Currie, Amelia Earheart, Harriet Tubman, and Hans Christian Anderson [also read around the same time as the other books]. I think they were all made in the '90s though, idk, they've been lost to time.

Do you dislike any twst characters (other than the incompetent crow, obviously)

For no reason? Neige; I don't trust him. For reasons? Rollo; he's based on a character whom I hate and I have a history with. Also, his haircut is worse than Rook's.

And what is your favourite way to eat potatoes? I think this says a lot about a person ^w^

All potato is good potato, it really depends on my mood...

SCALLOPED THE CHEESEY KIND I EAT THAT SHIT RIGHT UP!

My version of that one post thats like "when you see your blorbo being mischaracterized and have to grit your teeth over it being wrong" is seeing someone say something in RW is a purposed organism thing and being like Okay I need to write up a post about electrocommunication

[todayisafridaynight]

That’s some great advice stay away from the fandom just enjoy the property.

the best way to enjoy anything is to just be in your own little corner about it, maybe have a friend or two to talk bout it with then you're golden

Oh wow, the titer of this phage stock looks great! Let’s just run a couple replicates to make sure our results are consistent… 😀

I typically feel out of the loop with mcyt drama bc I'm genuinely so detached from the other former dsmp members (and never got into the full scope of the dsmp) that I miss stuff, but can they fr move tf on? like, way to prove your own irrelevance by constantly reminiscing on the one popular thing you had, like some annoying deadbeat whose only legacy is playing football in high school. Grow up, Chad. You got off the bench and touched the field once. It's time for you to move out of your buddy's house and start paying off your crippling credit card debt.

GLOW UP GUIDE FOR 2025⠀

READ: On average, it takes more than 2 months before a new behavior becomes automatic — 66 days to be exact. And considering that 2025 is precisely these many days away, why not start with our glow up plan already?

Physical Glow Up-

BODY

— 5-10K steps a day.

— 7-8 hours of sleep.

— workout everyday for 1 hr atleast- yoga/stretching/pilates/cardio/lifting weights. a workout may take one hour, but your mood will be boosted for the next 12 hours.

— posture training.

— sunlight exposure after waking up for at least 10 minutes.

NUTRITION

— 2-3 liters of water every day.

— limit your caffeine intake.

— avoid sugars as much as you can.

— high protein diet, pre and probiotics.

— more fruits and veggies (+ green smoothies if you like).

— no junk/processed food/trans fat.

— no eating after 8 pm.

SKINCARE

— be clear on your skin type (oily, dry, combination, sensitive).

— once you're clear, use these accordingly- cleanser, toner, targeted serum, eye cream, moisturizer, sunscreen (≥50 spf).

— keep your bedding clean as well.

— no picking of skin on your lips, cuticle etc.

— gua sha to help improve blood circulation and lessen toxins.

— cold therapy may take three to five minutes of being uncomfortable, but your energy levels will be boosted for the rest of the day.

— remove makeup before you go to bed.

BODY CARE

— shower every day.

— exfoliate 2x a week.

— use body lotion (shea butter/aloe vera gel/coconut oil).

HAIR CARE

— wash hair 2-3x a week

— oil your scalp 2x a week, at least 3 hours before shampoo.

— hair mask 1x per week.

— never brush wet hair.

— use silk pillow case.

HYGIENE

— brush your teeth 2x a day, clean tongue and the roof of the mouth daily.

— floss daily.

— cut your nails 1x a week, never remove the cuticles.

— glycolic acid under arm for odor and discoloration.

— never use soap on your coochie.

Mental Glow Up-

MINDSET

— set clear goals- define and breakdown your aspirations.

— start your mornings with positive affirmations.

— surround yourself with uplifting content and people.

— be shamelessly selfish to your career and mental health, remove anyone or anything that doesn't align with your priorities and wellbeing.

— boost your brain health by these 4 neuroscience tools:

difficult first: start your day with the most difficult task (cortisol and dopamine are high in the body meaning that your body/mind is primed to work).

rest your eyes: introduce a micro-pause after learning by resting/closing your eyes - will help retain information better.

tomorrow's worries: write tomorrow's to-do list before bed as it is proven to be effective in helping you fall asleep.

find time to play: engage in low-stake play. can be anything you find fun but where the outcome doesn't matter (induces neuroplasticity + reduces stress).

MIND

— meditation might take as low as ten minutes, but your focus will be improved for the rest of the day.

— no social media after waking up and at least an hour before bed.

— keep aside 1 hr of time to read daily! reading a new book may take five hours, but you will keep the knowledge forever.

— journaling, gratitude.

— digital detox once a week or for 12 hours.

— limit unnecessary screentime, unfollow or cut off people you don't want to see.

JOURNALING

— choose a regular time each day to journal, making it a part of your routine.

— find a quiet, comfortable place free from distractions. light a candle if you want.

— allow your thoughts to flow without censoring or editing.

— write about your feelings and emotions to understand them better. write about things you are thankful for to boost your mood. write about your short-term and long-term goals. identify what triggers certain emotions or reactions

— set a timer for 5-10 minutes and write continuously during that time.

— reflect on both positive experiences and challenges.

— make lists, journal your thoughts on these questions.

— journal at night to clear your mind before bedtime, because emotions and thoughts lose their power once we acknowledge them.

— a gratitude practice may take five minutes, but your mindset will be shifted for the rest of the day.

AFFIRMATIONS

— customise affirmations to your needs.

Personal Life-

WEEKLY TASKS

— initiate small changes: begin with small, manageable tasks such as making your bed or cleaning your room every sunday.

— celebrate your success: reward yourself when you achieve your goals or have a consistently productive week. consider treats like buying flowers for yourself or watching your favorite show.

DAILY WORK

— set achievable goals: establish realistic goals for the day, week, or month ahead.

— track your progress.

— organise your work space, declutter your shelves etc.

— embrace the power of lists: keep a list of tasks to be done and their deadlines. this way, you start each day with a clear plan. to make it visually appealing and motivating, consider using productivity apps like evernote, habit tracker, or notion.

PRODUCTIVITY TIPS

— wake up early.

— plan ahead everything, do scheduling. you can use:

google calendar / notion / tasks .

— if the task takes less than 2 minutes to finish, do it immediately.

— countdown rule, if you are procrastinating, count 1-2-3-4-5 and jump.

— start slow, don't rush and try to do everything at one time.

— follow a proper routine, use app locks based on screentime.

— pomodoro technique, 25 min work, and 5 min break.

— schedule longer break times as well e.g 30 min nap.
