Lately I’ve been feeling like I‘m absolutely in the right place at the right time, doing exactly what I‘m supposed to do.

It’s solar and wind and tidal and geothermal and hydropower.
It’s plant-based diets and regenerative livestock farming and insect protein and lab-grown meat.
It’s electric cars and reliable public transit and decreasing how far and how often we travel.
It’s growing your own vegetables and community gardens and vertical farms and supporting local producers.
It’s rewilding the countryside and greening cities.
It’s getting people active and improving disabled access.
It’s making your own clothes and buying or swapping sustainable stuff with your neighbours.
It’s the right to repair and reducing consumption in the first place.
It’s greater land rights for the commons and indigenous peoples and creating protected areas.
It’s radical, drastic change and community consensus.
It’s labour rights and less work.
It’s science and arts.
It’s theoretical academic thought and concrete practical action.
It’s signing petitions and campaigning and protesting and civil disobedience.
It’s sailboats and zeppelins.
It’s the speculative and the possible.
It’s raising living standards and curbing consumerism.
It’s global and local.
It’s me and you.
Climate solutions look different for everyone, and we all have something to offer.
im always like hehe im so smart i will avoid shame by never doing anything ever but then i feel ashamed of not living and it turns out i didn't escape any sort of discomfort i just traded it in for a less rewarding kind

It’s a 🌞H E A T W A V E🌞 in the city! Thanks Goddess, I’m still sick and injured and I can spend all day in the forest, on the beach or just in my home with fan and iced coffee. But I’m escaping city in any possible way and going to countryside this weekend to my friend’s summer house. Also it could be a great opportunity to spend time without phone and connection with civilisation 😂
well hello again studyblr-community. this post is mainly for myself, because i love discovering old text posts hehe. so, life update! i finished my master‘s in psychology and got an industry job in market research last year. and i hate it haha. tbh, the pay and company benefits are amazing but none of that matters when the work doesn‘t make any sense or has no impact on anything at all. buuut, my thesis supervisor reached out to me again because we still want to publish my thesis as a paper and again I can‘t believe how kind and thoughtful this man is and how much he makes me feel like that he has a very high opinion of me. but the best thing is that there will be a new PhD position opening up at his lab this summer and he asked me if I would be interested. What the hell. Yes, please save me from the corporate, capitalist hell that my current job is. I literally almost cried after the call with him and I am so going to apply for this position and manifest the shit out of it.
you can't waste your life btw it's just not something that's possible to do. your mere existence is already a precious and valuable use of your time. the time you spent becoming who you are now was inherently worthwhile
girl help they are making me do my job at work

est > pst makes u feel like a god, but pst > est is……. probably one of the most humbling of adjustments. :’) 1 hour late is an improvement on 2 hours late, right? :’)))))))
very excited to go home, make a nice dinner, and maybe rewatch goncharov (1973) if it’s back on streaming platforms these days

head not empty, many abstract uncommunicatable thoughts
“I may not have been sure about what really did interest me, but I was absolutely sure about what didn’t.”
— The Outsider, Albert Camus (b. 7 November 1913)
Let me tell you, I changed my mind SO many times about what I want to do with my psychology degree since I started uni 6 years ago. In the beginning I thought I would become a therapist, then I wanted to go into diagnostics, then I was into HR briefly, and for the longest time now I thought I had found my place in academic research, but I‘m realizing that the lifestyle that comes with that is not for me. So right now I think I might go into data science, tell that to my 18 year old self with her hate for statistics and she would‘ve laughed hard at me.
lol and now 10 months later i work full time in market research. who would‘ve thought
