and very, very often, self care is not plants and ice rollers and fluffy blankets of peace.

it’s standing over your kitchen sink and crying while doing the dishes because you just want to go back to bed but the dishes need done. and you don’t know why you’re crying but you're trusting you need it. and you aren’t listening to the music that pulls you into a spiral; you’re listening to some cheerful shit your friend sent you. it’s getting up and staring at your fridge and closing your eyes and then cooking yourself food even though you hate it and it’s miserable. because you know that you’d cook for your friend, and you are trying to befriend yourself. it’s dragging yourself into the shower because you know you’ll feel better afterwards. it’s doing mundane tasks with patience, cursing under your breath, trying desperately to give yourself grace. grace is the beginning of care. care is the beginning of love.

we think it’s supposed to be peace and yet the most powerful self care moments are when we hate everything but especially ourselves. and life does not feel worth the loving. to look into that pain and yet choose to care for yourself in however many pieces you are — that is care. love. grace. trust. belief. it hurts because it’s love where there was no love before. it heals because it believes there will be love, one day, soon.

There are many animals I expect to see in caves, but I can confidently say that this was not one of them.

Sometimes I wonder if Gollum/Smeagol would have been mostly fixed with a solid multivitamin, dental care, antibiotics, and some cough medicine. Dude has been eating almost nothing but cave fish and some goblins for an ungodly amount of time, he can't be thinking straight, ring or not 🤔

I am both in awe of their rhythm and if fear dor their ankles. *chef's kiss*

[bemusedlybespectacled]

I learned how to dance something similar to this in the third grade. in Cambodia it's called the Pestle Dance, and it is WAY slower than this, and it is still REALLY hard to do the turny bits without getting your ankles banged up. it was my least favorite dance to learn because it hurts like a bitch when your foot gets caught. that is god-tier levels of talent.

I‘m so happy to see traditional Filipino dances being hyped up here! I grew up watching these dances everywhere and have even seen diaspora kids dance hip hop ON TOP of doing the tinikling dance 🌟🇵🇭🔥

[dinlukedyke]

Tinikling irog ko ❤️ this is one of those things that's simple in theory but actually really really hard to do and these kids are amazing 🇵🇭

old women are really like my obsession though they can just say whatever and you just have to accept it today my old lady coworker looked at me and said “i can imagine you eating a croissant on your back like a little sea otter” and then walked away like girl!!!
