A forest green 1997 Honda Accord

I beg to differ… I quit smoking 7 months ago and have gained 20 pounds since then. 🥲 I think smoking was messing with my sense of smell

I have updated the links, no more meta 🫣🙃

As you mentioned in your post, it’s almost impossible to pick just 5 favorite singular works… so here are some of the top active artists that I currently adore (in no particular order)

• Guido Llordi, kinetic painter
• Tomislav Topić, muralist and fabric installations
• Smallwhitemonster, painter
• Seontae Hwang, backlit lightbox art
• Pieter Van Hooydonck/Kras Glass, stained glass artist
• Stevie Shao, muralist and painter
• Aura Terrariums, stained glass artist

… this list will probably change by next week

I mean … Do any of the laffy taffy flavors taste like the real fruits?

I’m pretty sure a lot of it was the specific manager I worked for. I was getting in trouble for the most ridiculous things… they got mad at me for writing hey in emails instead of hello or hi, got mad at me when my teammates didn’t do something correctly, got in trouble for working 7 minutes overtime by accident (then got in trouble for taking lunch between back-to-back meetings), spoke poorly about my teammates when they weren’t around and would not communicate expectations until after I did something wrong. Additionally, I was told I’m too anxious when providing feedback on the things I was hired to provide feedback on, and there was no work/life balance. Maybe I’ve been blessed to have better jobs before this, but I didn’t know a workplace could be so toxic

This email reminds me of the literal month that I lasted at the Costco world headquarters… Never again 🫩

I would highly recommend Blue Bayou, it’s about a Korean-American man in Louisiana raised by adoptive parents, but never got the proper paperwork to be considered a citizen. Amazing film, had me tearing up.

Wait… That’s not my mom!
