anybody else ever think about how fucked up the phrase “earn a living” is? like that’s how we talk about working. we have to “earn a living” doing something. our life has to be earned through the sale of our time and energy. our existence (and only that! nothing more!) has to be earned by offering it up as a commodity. capitalism fuckin blows dude
the sky was pretty today ☁️
““It’s a little lonely in the desert…” “It’s also lonely with people.””
— Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, The Little Prince
you know, life doesn’t have to be competitive. you don’t have to get in the very best university; you don’t have to get the highest paying career there is. you don’t need to compare and compete with everyone else in the world. you need to do what’s right for you. you need to relax, take a breath, and say ‘what do i want, for myself, to live as i want to’. and, if that involves high ambitions, then that’s fine. because you chose those ambitions on what you desire as an individual, and not on what is expected in order to succeed. let’s be ourselves this year.

Simpler notes! Highlighting narrowed down to the most important things I should remember from these notes. Terms are underlined instead and headers are placed with a fancier border~
「Quick tip: Try to use lesser sentences in notes; break them down and keep what you need. For example: “James Madison was a founding father who served as the fourth President of the United States.” becomes “Madison: founding father, 4th pres. of US” 」
