I can't be sitting around waiting for my life to begin. It already has, it's happening right now, and nothing is promised to me. No one owes me more time, more money, more opportunities. I'm not a religious person, but I am a believer in the integrity and beauty of the human spirit. Time to have some faith in myself. I am blessed, and I am capable, and I am ready to kick some ass. And so are you..I don't know you, but I'm proud of you for making it this far.

comparison is the thief of joy: a pep talk

The newest post on Hard Crimson is up, and it’s a pep talk for me and for you.

“There is so much pressure, especially as a young person, to create an online persona that is perfect, effortless, and beautiful, and as a result, we are currently stuck in an age of constant performance. (Tbh, Bo articulates this way more eloquently than I just did. It's ok, I didn't get a Netflix special for it so I can say what I want.)”

I reviewed Bo Burnham’s new comedy special/ performance art/ confessional, Make Happy. I’m also tackling the concept of blogging, how social media has changed the way we conduct our private lives, and my own goals. 

Did you love Make Happy? Hate it? spiral into a small existential crisis because of it?
