LIFE ADVICE FOR YOUR TEENS AND EARLY TWENTIES (and probably beyond but I haven’t made it much farther than that so far):
- GO OUT BY YOURSELF
- LEARN HOW TO NAVIGATE PUBLIC TRANSIT WITH NO SMART PHONE
- TAKE ONLINE CLASSES
- MAKE PEACE WITH DISAPPOINTING YOUR PARENTS
- GO TO THERAPY IF POSSIBLE
- FOLLOW AFTERCARE INSTRUCTIONS FOR NEW TATTOOS AND PIERCINGS
- EAT A MEAL BEFORE DRINKING
- DON’T MIX DRUGS
- IT’S HARD TO BE YOURSELF WHEN YOU DON’T KNOW YOURSELF SO JUST KEEP TRYING NEW THINGS
- THROW EVERYTHING AT THE WALL LIKE SPAGHETTI TO SEE WHAT STICKS
- YOU WILL DISCOVER YOURSELF THE SAME WAY YOU DISCOVER NEW COFFEE SHOPS AND NEW BANDS
- YOU WILL GET THERE
- DON’T MAKE A LONG POST IN ALL CAPS BECAUSE YOUR VOICE WILL START TO HURT FROM SHOUTING
and if you wanna go down in history then i’m your prince | the music or the misery
need to be ripped apart and left like that for a few days i think
what is adolescence if not leaving and being left?

even though i’ve never met her in person she’s with me in really weird subliminal universe ways. i talk to her in my head
stay genuine, tables always turn.
