incoherent quotes, unknown phone numbers, market lists, coffee orders, notes just titled ācheetosā and ācurtains,ā draft letters to former bosses. itās the little things!
i love just being hit with an idea that i think should be saved if i ever felt compelled to actually fully flesh it out one day.
itās just a cute little creative spot and i can go back and be like āi canāt believe how funny this would beā or āi canāt believe i thought of thisā
I carry around this tiny notebook everywhere I go and just write down any thought worth remembering. Itās helping me stay off my phone.
There are pages full of what wouldāve been tweets when I was more chronically online.Theres a lot of quotes from books Iām reading or substack articles. Sometimes itās just lists of tasks like āremember to refill prescriptionā.
best friend and i were yapping about how important it is to actually be celibate for a while and maybe even not date for a bit when you're single instead of hooking up until you find a partner. it sucks for a little bit and you are really forced to confront your demons and then one day you forget about it. whatever floats your boat but i think it's probably good for the soul to be celibate here and there and focus on other shit. i'll go like a whole year like it's nobody's business
seems like up till maybe 50 years ago if you knew the right guy with a printing press you could get some wild credit for being the first person to have a mostly normal thought. no matter how poorly you articulated it! sometimes it feels like the only sane thing to do is create your own critical framework....you are no less powerful than These Guys. they just made some of this stuff up
