i hate the internet's obsession with hygiene these days. just saw someone in a yt video claim that you should change your pillowcase every 2/3 days (!!) because of the "gross oils and sweat from your face" i think we should all go camping for a couple weeks actually

look I know that the home I grew up in wasn't always what you could consider "clean" but I have been seeing a huge uptick in what looks a lot like contamination fears online and I think it's time we admit that the pandemic personally affected our mental health.

a day in my life

sydney lohmann x contentcreatorwife!reader (requested)

summary: you're a content creator who shares her life with her millions of followers

you open your tiktok app, the bright and colorful icon glowing on your phone screen, you yawn as you spend hours editing– or should you say preparing to share another piece of your life with your vast audience of 3 million followers. 

scrolling through your feed, you can't help but feel the warmth of your community surrounding you. every comment under your videos makes you smile, each one a reminder of the positive space you've created. 

viewers quickly praise how pretty and gorgeous you look while also expressing their admiration for the delicious meals you whip up, your hygiene hauls, your skincare and haircare tutorials, grocery shopping vlogs, and more. 

the positivity is intoxicating, and you thank them for contributing such joyful energy to your day.

the sun filters softly through your kitchen window, casting a golden hue over the space. it feels like the perfect day to create something cozy and comforting—a hearty soup, perhaps, or a flavorful stir-fry, something you know your followers will appreciate and be excited to try. 

you set your phone on the countertop, adjusting the camera and tripod until it captures just the right angle of your kitchen and you busy at work. the space is organized yet warm, with hanging herbs in the background, jars of spices lining the shelves, and an array of fresh vegetables waiting for your expert touch. 

as you gather your ingredients, you glance over at your pets lounging nearby in the spacious living room.

your three cats, each with their unique personalities, are nestled in their favorite spots—your tabby is laying on the windowsill soaking up the sunlight, your calico sprawled lazily on the kitchen rug closest to you, and the void kitty perched atop a wooden stool, watching you intently. 

your dog, an affectionate golden retriever, lays by your feet, occasionally looking up at you with big, adoring eyes as if to say, “what’s for dinner, can you drop something please?” 

these little moments bring you joy. you adore taking care of them, and they, in turn, seem to love being a part of your daily influencer journey, often making cameo appearances in your videos.

you begin chopping vegetables as you talk to the camera, the rhythmic sound of the knife against the cutting board a comforting backdrop to your thoughts. 

“what’s your secret to looking so beautiful while cooking?” one comment might ask, while another expresses their desire to make cooking look as fun as you do. 

you know that sharing your passion for cooking, hygiene tips, and pet care not only showcases your lifestyle but also encourages your followers to embrace their own routines with confidence.

between chopping, you take a moment to wash your hands, the cool water refreshing against your skin. you make a point to highlight hygiene in your videos, explaining the importance of cleanliness in every kitchen as you scrub away. 

“keeping things clean not only makes your food better but also should give you peace of mind,” you say, glancing up at the camera with a playful smile and eyebrow wiggle.

that’s what this is about for you—creating an environment that feels secure and inviting, one that resonates with others who might feel the same way.

as you move on to your next ingredient in the video—a bright red bell pepper—you read the comments on your videos. you feel a rush of excitement. you know your followers are eager to engage. 

“what’s your go-to meal for busy weekdays?” someone comments. 

you pause, contemplating. 

“anything that has rice, vegetables, and some kind of protein!” you replied to the comment, explaining one of your favorite dishes.

the chopping and mixing continue in the video,giving some kind of asmr affect while you talked from the voiceover. each time you look at the comments, you see familiar usernames offering support, commenting on something silly that might’ve happened in your video (one of your cats knocking over the flour), and how gorgeous your meals look. 

it’s heartwarming to see names familiar to you—followers who have always been there, cheering you on. they ask questions about your daily routines with the pets, wanting to know how you manage your time, how you balance it all while fulfilling the role of a traditional wife. 

you realize your life might not resonate with many— but they still see themselves in your routines.

“this is my favorite part,” you say in the video with a smile as you hear the timer go off for the food you put in the oven, giving a little twirl in front of the camera. the laughter that fills your kitchen feels contagious as you channel your enthusiasm into the moment. 

every so often, you peek at your pets, which you do in the video. you held up your calico cat, who meows at the camera before you give her a light kiss on the head. you put her down and the clip cuts to you taking the food off of the stove and out of the oven. 

with your pets, you can’t help but share snippets of your pet care routine as well, talking about their feeding times, grooming, and little quirks that make them uniquely lovable. your content is filled with different stuff, which is how you attracted many people to your content. 

“my cats love to get into everything,” you chuckle, and you can see your viewers relating to those everyday struggles that come with pet families.

“off topic to the video but do you have any favorite fragrance scents?” you read one comment.

you nodded knowingly before typing to reply to that comment. 

“i have a video posted about that coming soon :)” 

you happily respond to some comments, knowing it would be unrealistic to reply to all of the comments you get from thousands of users. you genuinely enjoy helping others and answering their questions—whether it’s about your favorite recipes, store vlogs, or trad wife jokes.

as you dive deeper into the comments on your latest tiktok video, you notice a recurring theme: questions about your “husband.” 

at first, you chuckle to yourself. you can see why people might think that; after all, the shimmering ring on your finger is hard to miss. it’s a beautiful reminder of your commitment—a symbol of love and partnership. 

as you scroll, a sense of mild frustration settles in. many viewers comment on why you never showcase your husband in your videos or joke about him going “off-camera.”

living in munich and posting in perfect english can sometimes create misinterpretations. your followers likely pictured a traditional marriage between a man and a woman, and while a part of you understands the confusion, it feels strange to think that they have constructed an image of your life that doesn’t quite align with reality. 

your heart swells with pride knowing you're part of a loving partnership, but there’s a longing to set the record straight. you’re not married to a husband; you’re married to your beautiful wife, sydney.

sydney, a football player for bayern munich, doesn’t post much about her personal life on social media, opting instead to keep her professional and personal worlds somewhat separate. this could explain why your followers often don’t make the connection between the two of you; to most, she’s just an athlete in the spotlight who just cares about her club and her national team.

she works hard, dedicating herself to her sport, and while she’s known widely for her skills on the field, she doesn’t share the same kind of social media presence as you do. it was always you who took the lead in posting, sharing your daily life and exploring the joys of cooking, cleaning, and caring for each other.

as you set the camera up for another video, the ring glimmering on your finger catches your eye once more. you reflect on the day you exchanged vows with sydney three years ago, a small celebration filled with laughter and love among close friends and family.

it was perfect in its simplicity—just two women, madly in love, promising to navigate life together. while you take care of the cooking and household duties, sydney has her own passion and career, bringing balance to your lives. 

the dynamic you’ve built over the years is one that thrives on mutual support and respect.

picturing sydney’s infectious smile, you can’t help but feel a pang of longing for her to be part of your videos, sharing moments together with your viewers. however, you know she’s more private, focusing on her career and you privately with her friends and acquaintances. 

perhaps it’s time to find a way to bring her into your vibrant world online, to showcase your life together and dispel the assumptions that others have made.

waking up in the morning, the dog was snuggled beside sydney as your calico cat was laying on top of your left leg. the both of you still groggy and half-sleepy. however, sydney didn’t have anything football related so you decided to stay in bed for the bit longer before waking her up. 

later, after making breakfast and filming the sizzling sounds of bacon cooking alongside fluffy scrambled eggs, you brewed a steaming pot of coffee. the warm aroma filled the air as you took a moment to scroll on your latest post’s comments. 

you posted the video the night before and decided to not check the comments until the following morning. 

the reasoning why? you posted your wife for the first time on your page, blowing up the assumptions about you having a, “husband.” 

in the video, your “spend the day with me” vlog, you began to prepare lunch by chopping some bell peppers as sydney’s arms wrap around you from behind. relaxed in that clip of the video, you turned your head to see sydney, her playful grin lighting up your heart. 

“don’t cut yourself!” she teased, but the video couldn’t hear it since you were doing a voiceover. 

syd started planting kisses along your neck, moving from your temple down to your shoulders. it was a spontaneous moment, and you couldn’t help but burst into laughter, knife in hand, with the clip showing the love that was filled in your eyes. 

the unsuspecting viewers were treated to an endearing glimpse into your marriage, the warmth and tenderness so apparent even through the screen.

the comments exploded after you posted the video hours before: 

“is that a woman you were cuddling with?” 

“WOAHHH Y/N IS GAY TOO???” 

while many found joy in your representation, others were filled with disbelief. you could feel the surge of both surprise and excitement—when love is real, it knows no bounds. some expressed their admiration, saying “i love that you’re a lesbian trad wife!” 

the curiosity didn’t stop there. as the day unfolded, you posted another cute video of sydney playing with your golden retriever in the backyard. 

the sun reflected off her hair, illuminating her playful smile as she dribbles a ball with her foot for the eagerly bouncing dog. the clip was heartwarming, showcasing the simple joy the three of you shared—a family moment that anyone could relate to. 

however, it was this clip that sent the comments section into a complete frenzy: 

“IS THAT SYDNEY LOHMANN?” 

“I KNOW I'VE SEEN YOUR WIFE BEFORE WHY DOES SHE LOOK FAMILIAR?” 

“that's me in the background drowning in the pool (i’m jealous).”

while a faction of your followers were well-versed in european football, many, especially those from the united states, didn’t immediately identify the familiar figure. 

soon, the chatter erupted: 

“wait, is she a bayern munich player? i swear ive seen her before?” 

“OMG, I love her!” 

people started connecting the dots, and as they did, a wave of excitement washed over you. sydney was known in germany for her skills on the field, but now more than ever, they’d see her as a loving partner.

while your heart swelled with happiness at the support spiraling around you, you felt a familiar itch to address all the questions and assumptions. 

some of your followers were new, and you wanted to ensure they understood the depth of your relationship with sydney. so you made a decision; it was time to sit down for a more heartfelt conversation about your coming out story and the experiences you both shared navigating your lives together.

the following night, after a long tiring day filled with engagement and a repeat of that joyous exchange of laughter, you set up your camera for a “get unready with me for bed” video.

the lights were dimmed, and the ambiance in your bathroom felt cozy—slippers on your feet, hair pinned back by your pink headband, and your skincare products lined up on the counter cast in soft shadows. 

it was an intimate setting, one where you could be vulnerable and share your truth.

as you began applying your cleansing balm, you took a deep breath.

“hey everyone, it’s Y/N. I thought it would be a great time to address everything that’s been going on. I want to share a little bit about my coming out story and what it means to be married to the incredible woman that is my wife, sydney,” you began, feeling the familiarity of camera anxiety dissipating as you focused on the sincerity of your message.

you continued as you moved through your skincare routine, gently massaging the balm into your skin. 

“you know, coming out isn’t a one-time event. for me, it first began in high school. there were hints that i was gay around the age of 14 but i didn’t accept that until i was 16.. keep in mind, i was terrified, just like many others who start to accept that they’re gay. my school experience was not easy, and I had moments—cruel whispers, bullying, rejection. thankfully, my parents were accepting when i came out and i was able to lean on them for support along with my friends. i also found solace in art and creativity.” 

pausing for a moment, you looked down at your skincare products, lost in thought. 

“but then came moving to munich. it felt like a fresh start. that’s when I met sydney through my mutual friend, klara, who also plays with sydney and oh my goodness, she was captivating! so full of passion and life. she pulled me in with her laughter, and not to be corny or anything– but it felt like the universe conspired for us to find each other. loving her was just so easy; it felt effortless. her loving me felt so easy and loving her felt the same.” 

as your vulnerability unfolded, the likes and comments increased.

 

using a luxurious night cream, you gently applied it to your face while you spoke candidly, reflecting on your marriage. 

“syd and i have been married for three years now. we got eloped before having a ceremony a year later.. i’m not even kidding when i say that every day is filled with joy, support, and a deep respect for one another. it makes me so grateful because i thought my life was over when i first started to suspect that i was gay and catching feelings for women. with my wife, sydney inspires me with her dedication. she is so passionate when she is playing football on her club and national team– the way she pours herself into everything she does.” 

then came the part that had been weighing on your mind. looking directly into the camera, you took another deep breath. 

“I know there are some comments out there that reflect hate, misunderstanding, and a refusal to accept love in its many forms. to those hateful people, I say: disrespectfully, go fuck yourselves.” a smirk graced your lips before you laughed. you are never known for swearing in your videos, usually only swearing with your close peers while in casual conversation. 

“love is love, and if you can’t accept that, you have no place to be following me, a gay woman.”

the enthusiasm of your voice resonated with your audience, and you felt the weight lift. you began to share advice for those struggling with their identities.

“if you’re in a situation where you feel alone or scared, know that you’re not. find your community, speak your truth, and hold on to the love you deserve. don’t let anyone dim your light. being true to yourself is beautiful, and no one can take that from you.”

as you finished your skincare routine, the sincerity poured through your last words. 

“thank you all for being part of our journey; your support means everything. please continue to uplift love wherever it takes shape, and remember that we are all worthy of love, no matter what form it comes in.” you concluded with a genuine smile, and the warmth you felt radiated through the screen.

the video ended after that and a rush of fulfillment washed over you watching the video—a feeling of peace knowing that you had shared your story authentically and embraced the support from your community. 

the comments section overflowed with love, connections ignited among those who shared similar experiences, and others who were just here to celebrate who you and sydney were.

in the days that followed, your bond with your followers deepened. newfound friendships blossomed, and more importantly, the vocal support poured in from every corner of your online community. 

the journey continued to blossom as you shared snippets of your life with sydney, including her playful moments with your pets, cooking meals together, or even just sharing lazy afternoons on the couch. you came to look forward to posting every video, each one serving as a vibrant reminder of the love you both cherished, and nothing could ever take away that feeling.

Taking Back Your Brain: tips from a medical student

I have a confession to make: I am incredibly terrible at looking up from my phone and engaging in real life. Like bad bad. Like I struggle to get through a lecture without getting on tiktok bad. So here are all the things I'm plotting and planning to take back my brain from the greedy fingers of tech billionaires who have commodified my attention span--hopefully some of this will help you too!

1. Recognizing WHY I'm reaching for my phone as much as I am

the hidden truth behind our declining attention spans : This video really helped me reframe the way I think of my reliance on social media. I encourage watching it, but if you don't have the time, here's the breakdown:

We live in a world that is designed to distract us. Media and tech as a whole have gotten continuously better at grabbing our attention. It grows their platform, it makes them money, and they are investing money into research to invent new tactics to distract us.

What cues us to reach for our phones? Leonie shares in her video that she does so whenever she has a negative thought, and I agree. The nature of short form content promises quick distraction without having to commit to a long holiday from whatever task is at hand (though it always ends up happening). I'm working on confronting whatever uncomfortable thing is prompting me to reach for my phone, rather than giving in and creating a cycle of dependence.

2. Utilizing zones

Designate zones for each different "mode" of life. Don't shit where you eat and don't work where you sleep. Have a space for studying, socializing, sleeping/leisure, etc. and don't mix them. This prevents you from mixing cues. When you're in your work zone, it signals to your brain that it's time to go into work mode, making it easier to focus.

This is the idea behind sleep hygiene too! Keeping your room or even just your bed reserved only for sleep means that when you enter that zone, it cues your brain that it's time for sleep.

3. Mindfulness practices

There is very little I resent more than being told as a busy student that the reason I'm burnt out is because I don't practice mindfulness (it's definitely not because the system is rigorous and asks too much of us, right????) but unfortunately, they might be right.

Mindfulness helps pull you out of the muck of what's happening inside your head and into the present moment. It has been so helpful with pulling me out of my anxiety and makes me feel like I'm actually living my life, rather than avoiding it. Instead of diving headfirst into my phone or maladaptive thinking, I'm grounded in the reality of the present moment.

In the same vein, feel your feelings. It can be uncomfortable, but running from them only works for so long. It takes more and more energy to avoid them until something finally gives. Feel the sensation in your body, be aware of it, then let it pass. Getting comfortable with doing this will eventually replace the avoidance tactics you've picked up, like endless scrolling.

4. Fill your free time with productive things

This doesn't mean don't rest. Rest is productive. But you have to actually rest and do things that are regenerative, not doomscroll.

Take the time to grow in ways that interest you. Do things for your body, mind, and soul. For instance, I like lifting weights, reading/watching video essays/seeing movies on topics I'm curious about, topics that make me think (balanced by fluffy books that DON'T make me think), and praying/reading my Bible. Growth is good for you, your brain wasn't made to be stagnant.

5. Be kind to yourself and your brain

Sometimes kindness looks like cutting yourself some slack, but sometimes it's having the discipline to do something now so you aren't kicking yourself down the line. This is the biggest principle that I live by and it helps me reframe doing the hard things. The hard things have to be done regardless, it's just a matter of under what circumstances. Wouldn't you rather do them when they're easier than when you're fueled by panic? Take care of future you

Anyways, these are the things I'm going to be focusing on with my dedicated STEP 1 study period fast approaching <3

summer has arrived and school is out , which means you have 1 - 3 months worth of opportunities !! suprise your classmates , friends , families or even yourself as you glow up and enter the new school year absolutely changed !

our plan : :

001 , eat healthier

003 , hygiene

- hygiene is a must as most of you will start to sweat due to the sun's heat. remember to apply deodorant & shower properly

004 , mindset // mental health

- you can only truly glow up if you change your mindset, don't pity yourself for your past mistakes and forgive yourself. don't have a victim mindset.

examples of channels to help with this are : :

♡ thewizardliz

♡ freezia

the spender spends all of their time , their money on playing games or buying unnecessary objects etc that will hardly last them. All of this will benefit the earner who has dedicated their time , their money into education , necessary objects etc instead. So who do you want to be ? The earner or the spender ??

🫧🧼Hygiene Tips I Learned Recently🧼🫧

The TikTok algorithm has finally borne fruit, and I went down a rabbithole of people talking about their best tips. And me being me, I took notes. Credit goes mostly to vanilla swirl and pickleflipflops for these, their videos have saved me I swear.

Hair

Using glycolic acid as a scalp exfoliator. I'm allergic to a lot of things they put in normal scalp exfoliators so this one is a game changer.

Double shampooing. My hairdresser told me to do this too FWIW.

Stop overconditioning. If you have hair like mine (low porosity 2C-3A), you don't need a rinse out and leave in conditioner. Just pick one.

Teeth

OK, so I do my 'everything toothbrush' on the same days I wash my hair (twice a week) in the evening, but you can totally do this every time if you want, I'm just unmotivated. For me, this means: 1. Oil pulling for 10 minutes 2. Brushing my teeth with fluoride (I like the Tom's cinnamon one) 3. Scraping my tongue 4. Water flossing 5. Hydrogen peroxide as a mouthwash (I'm allergic to mint)

When water flossing, use a mouthwash instead of water (or, in my case, adding a little hydrogen peroxide to it) for extra clean teeth.

Brush your teeth before eating breakfast. I didn't grow up with this so it's taking some getting used to.

When using fluoride toothpaste, leave it on for a bit after brushing.

Skincare

Double cleansing with oil based and water based cleansers even when you don't wear makeup, especially in the evening. Really make sure to get all the sunscreen off.

Adding castor oil to moisturiser.

Using castor oil under the eyes daily gets rid of dark circles.

Hypochlorous acid spray instead of cleansing in the morning (for all us executive dysfunction havers), and spraying it throughout the day to keep your face clean.

If you get really red, painful skin after eating certain foods, it could be a fungal thing. My dad had that for years and it's gone now because he uses an antifungal.

Showering

Dry brushing before getting in the shower. I lied when I said this is recent I've been hearing about this for years but it's important enough that I'm putting it here.

Wash your body after you've washed your hair. I like to do my whole hair routine and put it up in a T shirt, then go back into the shower to wash my face and body.

Double cleanse your body, first with a bar of soap, then with a body wash. Oh, also wash your legs and feet properly.

When you get out of the shower, thoroughly dry your armpits, between your toes, your privates, and your crack. The rest of your body, leave damp for your lotion.

Put on lotion before body oil. Oil traps in whatever's underneath, so if you put oil first, you're wasting lotion.

Body Odour and Perfumes

Glycolic acid kills the bacteria under your arms that cause odour. I don't even need to use deodorant anymore because there's just no smell.

If you still smell, try using a benzoyl peroxide cream as a mask, leave it on for 5 minutes then wash it off.

Places to spray perfumes: inner forearms near the elbow (putting it on your wrists means it'll rub off faster), middle of the chest/collarbones.

Toileting

Use! A! Bidet! After! You! Poop! If there's no built in one where you are, they have portable ones for like $30 on Amazon.

Apparently, wiping from front to back means the direction you're wiping? And not just to do your vulva first? It kinda hurts for me to do that but I don't want poop particles up around there so.

Misc.

Disinfect your phone and headphones once a week. I know you don't do that already. Dirty phones and headphones cause acne and also it's just gross.

Take your underwear off at night. Wear boxers or pyjama shorts or something if you want, but nothing too tight.

Not really a hygiene tip but waxing your eyebrows and dyeing them every couple of weeks means you never have to fill them in again. Same goes with dyeing your eyelashes and mascara.

school romanticizing tips ౨ৎ ⋆｡˚

Cute outfits - wearing cute outfits to school can make you feel more motivated, pretty and confident! If you wear a uniform try to decorate it with some accessories. I usually prepare my outfits the day before, so i won't have to rush my outfit choices in the morning. and for outfit inspo i would recommend pinterest, tiktok and tumblr.

jewellery - it makes every outfit look 10x better. here are some jewellery based on hair colour - blondes- silver and rose gold, brunettes- gold, black haired girls- gold or silver, red haired girls- gold, silver and rose gold (also don't forget these are just my opinions of what looks good, wear whatever jewellery you know looks good on you ♡).

makeup - for me i love doing makeup as a part of my school morning routine! (also you're beautiful with or without makeup ♡).

a makeup routine for my girls who love the no makeup look ♡ mascara (clear, brown black), brow gel (clear), lip gloss (clear, light pink), blush.

a makeup routine for my girls who love makeup (i love makeup too) ♡ concealer, blush, contour, highlighter, mascara (brown, black, clear), brow gel, lip gloss.

pretty and organized notes - having organized notes will help you so much (easier studying, improved focus...). i recommend having pretty handwriting, also having some cute stationery will help you feel more motivated to study.

hygiene - having a makeup and a skincare routine always makes me more excited for school. but also taking care of yourself is important. i would recommend everyday or at least every two days. i wash my hair every 2-4 days (i have 1b black hair). also carrying a deodorant, body spray or a perfume to school is great.

books - reading books in school made me feel like a pinterest girl. i recommend good girls guide to murder series by Holly Jackson, before the coffee gets cold series by Toshikazu Kawaguchi or atomic habits by James clear. Also annotating books is fun (highlighting, sticky notes etc.)

Yujin is signing off.... ♡

So someone asked me where I find my hypergamy groups. Tumblr didn’t give me enough characters for a full response so here it is. Bear with me I’m high rn but honestly these are my most philosophical moments if I can type them fast enough lol.

Ok so it really doesn’t matter. There’s no one specific platform that houses all the best creators. I used to think it was TikTok, then Reddit, then tumblr. The truth is each platform has good and bad, it’s your job to sift through them.

Reddit is for situational analysis. People explain their scenarios and other ppl give their suggestion on what you should do based off their experience or expertise. Since it’s anonymous things get really detailed which is good for you. If you have anxiety like me this is great because i can practice what I’d do so that I’m prepared for any niche scenario. Tumblr obviously has an anon question feature but it’s more one on one between the patron and the creator. It’s not like a giant group chat the way Reddit is. I like r/MarryRich and R/sugarbabylifestyle

Facebook is where a lot of genx and boomers live. Mainly because you can say fucking anything on Facebook. You could pledge to hler and they still wouldn’t flag you. As a result you get a lot of cut throat ladies. Some people think cut throat is good, raw and unfiltered information is best, right? Wrong. In my humble opinion a lot of “bluntness” and “honesty” is just nastiness and bad communication disguised as something good. They definitely have the advice that comes from the experience of old age however you gotta sift through a lot of bs to extract the main points. Not for the faint of heart. I follow suha deeb and Maria al massani

TikTok is great for girl tips. You know, the things your mom was supposed to teach you? Grooming, hygiene, fashion, etc; It’s a great place to physically turn yourself into the perfect girl/woman. You’ll be involuntarily fed different makeup styles and hairstyles you never even considered. I didn’t even know what a color analysis or kibbe body type was until TikTok but now that I do I feel like I’ve up leveled my look so much.

YouTube university will obviously be on this list. I love watching breakdowns and simplifications of high class topics like politics, economics, business, art, and philosophy. I love hyper fixating on niche subjects that I can bring up to make myself more interesting, adding a layer to my overall feminine aura. Fave YouTube channels are kidology, modern mba, Patrick Boyle, big think, Micheal sugrue, duke universtity department of political science, James jani, bloomberg originals, usuli institute.

Instagram ain’t got nothing for you.

Of course there’s going to be intersectionality. For example I see tumblr as a compilation of all these different platforms. It just depends on which creators you decide to follow.

This took a lot of power to type.

"I never knew my daddy liked his women so big! I read all the guides online and watched all the TikToks about tips for seducing your dad. It seemed straight forward but my dad was still reluctant. I was so self-conscious! What dad doesn't wanna fuck his daughter when she gets to be in her twenties? I thought I had to be doing something wrong. Then he confided his preference in me. Such a naughty man he is.....

So here I am, month three of being daddy's personal fucktoy. I've put on 90lbs for him! 30lbs a month like the diet I bookmarked promised! Daddy loves how fat my ass and thighs are getting, and the rest will follow soon. My body is probably just surprised I'm getting so fat so fast.... I mean, I am a bit concerned when I think about this diet long term. 30lbs a month? Won't that mean in a year from starting I'll have put on 360lbs? So...... in just nine months I might be pushing 500lbs! Ummmm, that's kind of scary. But daddy told me the bigger the better, that no matter how fat I get he'll only find me sexier. So I guess in order to please him I have to do the only rational thing and see just how fat I can get! Pack on as much weight as possible, no matter how bad my health and hygiene slip, I want to show daddy how devoted I can be to his fantasies. Pleasing your daddy is a daughter's only real purpose in life, after all!"

Hello,

Two things: feed the monkeys and save your spoons.

The monkeys (those loud cymbal-banging toys that live inside Homer Simpson's head) make up a small portion of your brain activity. In itself, not much, but if the rest is silent, that's all you will hear. You feed the monkeys by giving them a task: one can have music, another a spinning ring, the third textured slippers, etc. until they are all busy. Then, you'll be able to make a to-do list and get to work. If an activity requires you to use both hands, find something else for Monkey #2 (watching someone paint or build Lego on Youtube for example, anything that allows you to keep your music). My recommendations: one, start with the frog (the worst one, while you are still motivated) and two, remove obstacles - wear your hair up, put on tight clothes so you will not wet your sleeves, get gloves so you are not afraid of ruining your manicure, etc.

The spoon metaphor is not mine (shout out to some TikTok guy) but it is the idea that you wake up every morning with a certain number of spoons (variable depending on your mood/energy) that you will use as currency during the day to do your tasks. Anything hard or annoying will be costly: if you run out at 6pm, essential things like hygiene or nutrition will be left behind, not to mention the chores you have been neglecting. So, one: embrace chaos and honour your feelings. If you're done for the day, you're done, you gave it all you had and we will start again tomorrow - no need to fight the windmill like Don Quixote, you are just torturing yourself. And two: make your daily activities as cheap as you can. It can mean listening to pop while you're changing the sheets, meal prepping on Sunday so you don't have to cook for the rest of the week, changing your toothpaste because mint is gross, buying a garment steamer so you never have to iron again, decluttering so it doesn't take 45 minutes to vacuum, i.e. work hard now so you can be lazy later.

Love,

Mum

The harmful effects of too much “screen time”, especially with social media, have been known for years. Social media is legendary for its addictive enticement. When Technocracy first defined itself in 1934 as the “Science of Social Engineering”, it launched technology 0n a trajectory to destroy mental health, not to help it. Now Technocrats are harnessing AI to push the world into a simulacrum, or anti-reality. ⁃ Patrick Wood, TN Editor.

Whether it’s internet rabbit holes or endless social media interactions, a new poll finds the more time you spend obsessing over what’s happening on your screen, the worse your mental health gets.

According to the survey, the average American feels like they lose three days per month while consuming online content. The poll of 2,000 Americans revealed that 36 days of our year are lost to scrolling, streaming, and bingeing content. It’s even worse for younger people. Gen Z Americans feel like they lose closer to five days per month.

The comprehensive study on media consumption trends by Talker Research also revealed that excessive content consumption can result in feelings of guilt, with the average respondent having three pangs of guilt per month. On average, Americans consume about six hours of content per day, with Gen Z Americans consuming closer to seven.

In honor of World Mental Health Day, the data split respondents based on their self-reported mental health and found that poor mental health and media consumption appear to have an uncomfortable connection.

Those with “very poor” mental health lose nearly six days per month to content consumption, while 19% of those who say their mental health is “very poor” estimate that they lose 15 or more days per month. In comparison, those with excellent and good mental health lose the fewest days (2.7).

This also aligned with feelings of guilt. Those with“very poor” mental health feel guilty most often — roughly seven times per month. Nearly half of those polled (42%) admit they feel like they consume “too much” media, and 36% say their mood is “often” negatively affected by something they see on social media.

Gen Z Americans were the most likely to feel like they consumed too much media, with 66% agreeing with that sentiment. Interestingly, those with “very poor” mental health were also found to be the most likely to use TikTok regularly (38%) and the most likely to report being “very likely” to be on their phone while watching something on television (46%).

Dr. Sham Singh, a Harbor UCLA-trained psychiatrist at Winit Clinic, offered three helpful tips for managing screen time to alleviate feelings of guilt.

Implement a “Tech-Free” Zone. “Creating designated areas where technology is off-limits in your home can significantly impact your daily habits,” Singh says in a statement. “For instance, by making your bedroom a tech-free zone, you promote better sleep hygiene and relaxation, free from the distractions of notifications and screens. Similarly, establishing a tech-free dining room encourages meaningful conversations and family bonding during meals. These intentional spaces reduce screen time, foster healthier interactions, or enjoy quiet moments.”

Set Phone-Free Intentions: “Before you reach for your phone, I advise you to take a moment to set a clear intention for its use,” says Singh. “Ask yourself what you need to accomplish—whether it’s checking messages, researching a topic, or responding to an email. This practice encourages a more mindful approach to technology, helping you avoid the trap of mindless scrolling. Having a defined purpose lets you stay focused on your task and minimize the likelihood of getting sidetracked by social media or other distractions.”

Reflect on Content Consumption: “Keeping a journal of your experiences with various types of content can be an enlightening practice,” Singh suggests. “After consuming media—be it social media, news articles, or videos—take a moment to jot down your feelings and thoughts. Did you feel inspired, informed, or drained? This reflection helps you discern which content enriches your life and which might feel like a time-waster. Over time, you’ll develop a clearer picture of your media consumption patterns, enabling you to make more informed choices about what to engage with in the future.”

Basic Hygiene Tips If No One Told You(aka. Hair Care 101):

Everything in this list is either derived from personal experience, trusted dermatologists on TikTok who's names allude me at the moment, or @Siiriparkss and @Theresavandamstylist's informational skits. I absolutely do recommend checking them out because they absolutely helped me a TON and are really funny creators who know MUCH more than I do!!

-lotion every time you take a shower/bath. It will help replenish the good oils that you just washed off as well as help prevent body acne/big break outs

-use a wash cloth. Your classic plastic Loofahs you find at the dollar store harbor bacteria like no other and are impossible to wash completely. If you still want something similar, go for an African net sponge/shower cloth!! They're the same thing, just easier to clean and manipulate.

-dry your hair with a t shirt instead of a towel. Towels are too coarse for some people's hair and can cause excessive frizz and/or breakage. But also I've noticed that my curl pattern actually suffers as well. T shirts are much more gentle.

-PLEASE FOR THE LIFE OF ME DO NOT SCRUB YOUR SCALP WITH YOUR NAILS. Yes I know it feels good. It feels great. But you're actually irritating all of your sensitive skin and then adding SOAP into the mix. Instead, use your fingertips. It's much more gentle and effective. If you feel like you're not getting a full clean doing that, feel free to use a comb to brush through and loosen the gunk on your scalp before hopping in the shower.

-people with curly hair: brush your hair wet. That is when it is the strongest and won't frizz out

-people with straight hair: brush your hair dry. That is when it is the strongest and won't break.

-for people with longer hair: please don't fold over your hair on itself and scrub. That can cause breakage and hair loss. Instead, just scrub your scalp and run your fingers through the rest to clean.

-conditioner goes on the ends of your hair, unless you have dry scalp. Then you can do conditioner from root to tip, massaging it down into your scalp. Or you can do hair oils after you get out. I prefer conditioner because it's heavier and doesn't drip all over but you do you. You can also get leave in conditioner that helps a lot.

-let your conditioner sit for AT LEAST 3 minutes in the shower!! This helps ensure that your hair soaks up all the oils that you just washed out of it.

-dry scalp is different than dandruff. Dry scalp is itchy and. Well. Dry. And has a bunch of white flakes that kinda go all over when you shake your head or comb your hair. Dandruff is stubborn trapped oils on your scalp that show up as kind of like yellowish scabs(gross, I know, but that's the only way I can think to describe it). Except when you scrape them off/pull them out with a comb they don't hurt and they probably weep some clear oil. It's completely fine!! I promise. However, the treatment for dandruff and dry scalp are very different. Dandruff treatment is removing oil by using special shampoos like Head and Shoulders and other brands. Dry scalp needs you to add oil (like stated above, you can do this by just doing conditioner from root to tip). If your scalp is itchier after using Head and Shoulders and other brands, you likely have dry scalp, not dandruff.

-some kinds of frizz can also be tamed with hair oil. My little sister used to struggle immensely with frizzy hair, despite not having curls. Sometimes all you need is the right serum/oil to smooth it out.

-waves and curls need to be scrunched in order to retain body and shape. You can use some sort of curl cream to also help with this. Just get a little bit(or a lotta bit, depending on your hair length), rub it between your hands and brush it through your hair with your fingers. Then scrunch and let air dry.

-only use a hair dryer until your hair is about 80-90% dry. Let it air dry the rest of the way. It saves your hair from unnecessary heat damage.

-brush your tongue and the insides of your cheeks. It's one of the main cause of bad breath and is actually really easy to fix.

-not exactly a hygiene thing, but eat before you take medicine unless specified. Especially pain medications. Tylenol, ibuprofen, and other prescribed medications can cause ulcers if in direct contact with your stomach lining, as well as losing efficacy over time because of this. Even if it's just a small snack like half a sandwich or a couple bites of a cheese stick. It'll help you still be able to take meds later on!

Everyone feel free to add your own!!
