You're a work of art. Celebrate it.
The concept of a midlife crisis was always weird to me. Why wait until you’re middle age to question the choices you’ve made? I’ve had all the symptoms of a midlife crisis at least once a year since I was 25. The cycle seems to have accelerated recently, and now only takes about 3-4 months […]

Fake freedom requires the world to conform to your will. Real freedom requires nothing of the world. It is your will. — Mark Manson, Everything is F*cked: A Book About Hope Mark Manson’s new book is out. I’ll write more about it on a different occasion. For now I’ll just say, if you’re wondering why […]
