Secrets
aspirations of grandeur
i'm becoming more comfortable with the idea that i have a delusional disorder. in fact, it would do a great deal to explain why i have persistent delusions about my identity that go back for years. that, or because i married someone who believed everything my delusional thirteen-year-old self said back then as part of a folie à deux. see, my life is and always has been a wild ride, even when it isn't. come with me on a quick jaunt through the highlights.

Little Acts of Feminism You Should Start Using Immediately
I came across a TikTok recently that stopped me mid-scroll. A woman had shared a list of her “microfeminisms”, small, deliberate things she does every day to push back against the quiet expectations placed on her, and the comments were full of women adding their own. Tiny acts of resistance stacking up in the thousands.

Word of the Day: おばさん
I don't really need to write anything but I think I want to just get used to sitting at the dining table again to work on homework. I need to work on the presentation tomorrow but I am trying to follow my todo list faithfully and it says that homework is up next.

Aftertaste
I am standing in front of the mirror in my bedroom, the light is too warm and yellow, the scene is soundless. My eyes catch themselves watching me, and for a moment I am both the keyhole and the door. I lift the hem of my dress. Beneath my ribs, my skin has vanished.

Word of the Day: 癌
This weekend I didn't get anything done unfortunately... I don't regret it though, it does kind of suck but... What happened was that Sebastian cancelled with me. We were planning on having fun together this weekend, I even bought some lingerie he liked and it was going to come some time in the afternoon.

On the opposite chair… no one.
On the opposite chair… no one. Me… I don’t know who I am. Every morning, I open my eyes to myself as if seeing me for the first time. A stranger to me, tired of me. I search for my self among my features, but nothing stays. Sometimes I feel I deserve the universe, sometimes I hate myself as if I were a crime. Nothing is stable. No feeling lasts. No thought remains without turning against me.
