Six feet under - “back to the garden” (S2E7)

Recommending the show overall because it’s probably my favorite ever, but this is a notable episode for me because it explores a core theme of the series: your family members are just people. The episode—like most in the series—has many subplots, but I care most about Claire visiting her aunt/Ruth’s sister Sarah in Topanga Canyon. At the end there’s a beautiful, silent understanding between mother and daughter during a tense, tumultuous time in their lives. There are other episodes that really get to the meat of their dynamic, but this one stays close to my heart because of its subtlety and, of course, Joni Mitchell. *It’s an HBO series so you can watch it on Max

being a nerd about stuff

being traditionally cool is really quite boring and iterative, and it’s actually very cool and sexy to geek out about something you like or share bits of knowledge on a topic you’re passionate about

MAY DAY

HAPPY INTERNATIONAL WORKER’S DAY!!!! i love having a union, i love being a union steward and getting to support my unit. when my union won its contract, i got a pay bump, better benefits, and increased protection as a worker. 🥳 unions help address racial and gender pay gaps, issues workplaces impose on families and those having kids, addressing unsafe conditions, plus things like better health insurance, wages and overtime, weingarten rights to representation, and more!!! if you don’t have a union but are thinking about forming one, check out AFL-CIO’s page (linked) or Emergency Workplace Organizing Committee. there’s always more power in a union!! ✊🥖🌹

not being on tiktok

i had it for a little over a year until i was like wow this is actually terrible! i genuinely think it has negatively impacted society by ruining people’s attention spans, having a horrific algorithm, and most of all by the most mind-numbing or outright harmful trends - fake words that people now use IRL (“unalive”), trad wife tiktok, shein hauls, body-focused fitness vids that encourage fatphobia and unhealthy habits, shallow political/feminist theory and queer discourse, “alpha male” podcaster tiktok, encouraging overconsumption in general, trends ruining local spots or niche things… the list goes on
