To start of this little blog, here's all the rocks I found this Saturday 7/8 in a couple of parking lots.

(This is me(Zoe) and will probably be the only Tumblr I use going forward so check it out if you like rocks!)

I can't believe this is still going around lol

anyway i think we all know who the true best character in Goncharov (1973) is

been thinkin about how my ethics professor back in undergrad was like.

look. there’s no such thing as perfect altruism. you’ll always get something out of helping or being kind to others, whether it’s a stronger relationship or returned kindness or just the feeling of having done good. there’s nothing inherently bad about getting something from doing good either, especially since it’s completely unavoidable. people being rewarded for putting love into the world doesn’t make the world a worse place. so just do as much good as you can and don’t worry about being “selfless” while doing it, because being truly selfless is in fact impossible.

and like man did that take the pressure off of Being A Good Person!! you’re allowed to enjoy helping people! you’re allowed to be kind without worrying that you’re maybe secretly just doing it for yourself!! it’s okay if you are doing it for yourself because you’re still being kind to others!!!!!

I think what I love most about current day tumblr and it’s obsession with things like Dracula daily and Goncharov is that it’s a reminder that the internet and social media can be fun. It’s not all algorithms and selling things to you based on data the company got from tracking all your movements. Sometimes it’s about coming together to have fun over something completely superfluous and stupid but ultimately meaningful because we gave it meaning.

Hello, I have been in the process of diagnosing my chronic fatigue. The good news is that after thorough testing, where problems were identified, I am finally breaking some ground with one of my doctors. The bad news is that I am required to see said doctor again before necessary medications/supplements/treatments can be implemented. This is in addition to the other doctor appointments I have because I have been working with multiple doctors throughout this diagnostic process. This is a bit painful because I've already exceeded the 3 reduced-price in-network doctor visits my insurance allows and I'm paying a hefty fee for all appointments, ranging from $100-200 each. The expenses for more meds/supplements/treatments in addition to the existing strain of my rent hike, regular meds, and groceries, are killing me. I anticipate needing around $835 in assistance this month. Thank you so much 💖

"... “I’m taking action because I feel desperate,” said U.S. climate scientist Peter Kalmus, who along with several others locked himself to the front door of a JPMorgan Chase building in Los Angeles. A recent report found that the financial giant is the biggest private funder of oil and gas initiatives in the world.

“It’s the 11th hour in terms of Earth breakdown, and I feel terrified for my kids, and terrified for humanity,” Kalmus continued. “World leaders are still expanding the fossil fuel industry as fast as they can, but this is insane. The science clearly indicates that everything we hold dear is at risk, including even civilization itself and the wonderful, beautiful, cosmically precious life on this planet. I actually don’t get how any scientist who understands this could possibly stay on the sidelines at this point.” ..."
