“People out here butt-chugging sunlight” has me cackling like a movie villain. I feel like Ursula or something. It’s great.

I love your burner name! Screenname? I can’t use words correctly today.

Also the 90 day Fiancé Pillow Talk show is filling the The People’s Couch shaped whole in my heart. Bravo, why have you forsaken me?

i’m so sorry! sending love and good juju and all of that. the best you can do is the best you can do, so if you’re feeling anxious and depressed again and you’re able to implement whatever self care strategies you keep in your back pocket for those times, do. and if you’re not able, that’s okay. if you have friends…

oof— i want to make it clear that i do not want to disrespect you or your relationship or the pain you feel right now. i also want to make it clear that after reading that, i believe you have accomplished addition by subtraction, love. maybe consider not being friends with him if his way of being a friend is anything…

sorry for your loss; happy you got to love each other.
