Hey, I Like Myself Today
“If you have the ability to love, love yourself first.” ― Charles Bukowski I've been on a journey of self-love for quite some time now. What sparked my journey was taking this course on self-love on Udemy two years ago. I wrote about it before, but honestly when I am feeling down and in the dumps, this is what I revert back to.

What Is a Self Assessment Tax Return and Who Needs to File One?
For many people in the UK, income tax is automatically deducted from their salary through the PAYE (Pay As You Earn) system. But for millions of self-employed individuals, landlords, company directors, and freelancers, things work differently. They must declare their income and pay their tax directly to HMRC through the Self Assessment tax return process. Understanding how this system operates — and who it applies to — is essential to staying compliant and avoiding unnecessary penalties.

Top 10 Hoaxes That Tricked The World In 2025
“In 2025, the internet became a carnival mirror — everything looked familiar, but the truth was warped.” That’s how I like to open this: imagine scrolling through your feed, and the world you see doesn’t reflect your reality — it distorts it.

Young People Don't Matter
I just read an article on Vocal about how Six Flags is shutting down any leftover parks this month in November. I started getting really depressed thinking about it. I've seen the end of so many of my beloved companies and brands. I had to watch Kmart and Sears go down. I had to watch Payless Shoe Source and Albertson's Grocery kick the bucket. I had to watch Chik-Fil-A leave the mall, expand, and dismiss their delicious cole slaw. I had to watch Disney World and Busch Gardens evolve from $25 entrance tickets to $125 entrance tickets. I had to watch the Dollar Tree go from every item costs $1 to you don't know until you're at the register is what every item costs. The world changed so much the past decade. We lost more businesses and "norms" or symbols of Americana culture the past decade than in the three decades previous to it. It's been truly heart-wrenching stuff.
