Ok.. either I am just genuinely so radiant that sometimes strangers just LOVE me… or there is some untapped potential of a racially ambiguous mixed girlie… because there as an absurd and disproportionate trend in my life of going to restaurants run by people of color and the wait staff instantly clocking me as “friend shaped” and then giving me a huge discount for no other reason… like in front of my white friends. I’m treated WAY differently and it’s honestly hilarious?? Like the really cute waitress tonight was on her break when we left and stopped to say “byeeee it was wonderful to have you!!! You were so sweet!!” At like only me, while my two other friends were right ?? there?? She also did not charge me for my drinks at all!?? Which was a slay! And this KEEPS happening?? And only with other young brown girlies and Arab dads/granddads who instantly daughter zone me and refuse to let me pay the price on the menu when they find out my mom is Arab??

have you ever asked yourself "what do i have to contribute to the aliens keeping humans as pets" subgenre? because i have. and the answer is johnny shouting and yelling and lunging with teeth bared at every alien he sees so none of the bastards try and take him home and ghost taking one look at him and going "cute. i want that one."

It’s my middle child’s 3rd birthday today 🥺
3 years ago my partner was deployed overseas and couldn’t come home for the birth because the military didn’t want to spend so much time quarantining their soldiers. Fortunately I had help as my parents were watching my son (at the time just a month shy of 2) for a few days before my due date and we had moved across the street from my partner’s parents when we found out about the deployment. So I had his mom with me at the hospital holding up her phone while we got to have a rare video call with my partner as we welcomed our daughter into the world after a very quick labor. I then had two months with our two very little kids by myself before he came home. It was an incredibly hectic time and I’m still not quite sure how I was able to get through all of that but here we are with the sweetest little 3 year old (let’s call her C) we could have asked for 🥰
C loves to play dress up and she has specific characters she’ll play as where you can’t refer to her as her name or she’ll get mad. She’s not C she’s Dr C or Baby or Baby Kitty or Princess Bucket (this was her first character and yes she does put a bucket on her head as a crown). Her favorite game to play is hide and seek and she loves dance parties and drawing and she’s obsessed with her 1 year old sister. We love C so much and I’m so excited to see how she grows and changes and learns over this next year ❤️

met up with a best friend for dinner today and it was so beautiful to finally be reunited with someone who makes you laugh until tears well up in your eyes and you're clenching your stomach rolling.

whilst i'm on the topic let me talk very briefly about why i love the epicurean mindset so much in regards to pleasure and indulgence. epicureanism is a form of hedonism in that it maintains the idea that pleasure is the intrinsic goal and purpose of human existence. it's about the "absence of pain in the body and mind" and refusing to let your life be ruled by fear or suffering (important given the philosophy was cultivated during a time where fear of the gods dominated the lives of so many). unlike hedonism, however, epicureanism still takes into account the idea of a personal moral compass and regards the feelings and lives of other people. where hedonism implies pleasure-seeking irregardless of any potential negative impact, and with the soul aim of indulging and overindulging purely to satiate the needs of the individual, epicureanism takes a more pragmatic approach. in the epicurean mindset overindulgence can be a bad thing. overindulging can lead to greater suffering for the individual in the long run, but also for those around them. this is therefore counterproductive to the overall aim of the philosophy and thus cautioned against. epicureanism is essentially about enjoying what you have while you have it, even in spite of the customs or expectations of wider society. it's about being kind to yourself and seeking pleasure and stability without harming anyone. it's basically just saying chill the fuck out and eat some pasta sometimes
