I took this at the Chelsea flea when I visited New york, and when I look back to how much I just spent today on thrifting alone, I wonder how the appeal of low cost one of a kind—kinda causes people to overconsume. “Trinkets” are becoming a trend now and it befuzzles me as someone who has been collecting little nothings since I was a lamb, and I wonder how it can turn into hoarding fast.

make it an experiment. Go to the thrift store with intention. If you’ve never been to the thrift store before: go to one and wander the aisles without buying anything (unless something really catches your eye). Just get used to being in that space and learning how it works (thrift stores are chaos in store form, but you can acclimate!)

after five years of grad school and subsequent job search, i can finally say i have successfully changed careers 😭 i start my new job counseling kids at a community mental health clinic on Monday. yesterday was my last shift at the grocery store that was an escape from my horrible corporate job and a sustaining force throughout grad school. it’s so bittersweet to leave the sweetest coworkers i’ve ever had and the most fun i’ve had at work. it’s immeasurably healing to quit a job for only good reasons. my coworkers got me a cake, everyone wrote notes in a card, and the goodbyes throughout the day made my heart swell. i even got to tell the good news to my favorite instacarter 🥺 after i clocked out for the last time, my friends joined me for gelato at the cafe and we strolled the store for a final time, this time as simply a loyal customer.
