my philosophy is “nothing an individual can do could possibly be worse for the environment than major corporations dumping tons of pollutants into the atmosphere every day but also don’t just toss shit on the ground you idiot have some manners”

the one problem i have with people my age and younger is that a lot of us do not have hands on hobbies. like i have spoken to so many people my age who go to work, go to school and then fuck around on their phone/computer for hours and then ???????? like no wonder ur depressed and have low confidence in urself. u need to get ur hands on something, feed those dopamine receptors! learn how to play guitar, garden, scrapbook, fucking make model trains. i don’t give a shit, MAKE SOMETHING!!

it feels better than drugs when i finish making a thing—and then show it off or gift it.

and then so people my age say to me ‘well—i can’t draw/paint/knit/etc. like you can. my stuff would be terrible.’ yeah, well duh—a part of developing skill is sucking at something and then practicing it over and over and over again until you suck less. u’ll have a hard time feeling lonely or bored when you can’t stop thinking abt a technique you want to try or something you want to make for someone else. making things has SAVED MY LIFE. it gave me a reason to keep living day after day when i wanted to die.

making things improved my generational relationships (when i worked for the newspaper i would talk to customers abt jamming recipes or cross-stitch, one of my grandmas always gives me pattern books and tell me abt when she knitted things for mom, my other grandma is giving me a wedding quilt that HER grandma gave her 50 years ago because she knows i will appreciate it). it also got me likeminded friends who also make things.

take a ceramics class! pick up water colors, bake cakes! learn to work on cars! make soap. DO SOMETHING THAT DOESN’T INVOLVE STARING AT A SCREEN.

For people who don’t know where to start: so far I have taught myself knitting, tablet weaving, and soap making from YouTube, and I started all three the same way— by watching people make things. Not like in a tutorial video way, but just like. Woman Weaves Tapestry. Grandma Makin Soap in the Kitchen. Once you have watched hours of low-production-quality videos of normal people just making average things, it starts to seem much more possible that you, too, can Make a Thing. It also gives you a much better idea of how one actually starts and goes about it.

My plug: I seriously recommend knitting or crochet for anyone with a low budget. I picked it up specifically to keep myself busy one winter when I was very broke. A skein of cheap yarn and some needles is under ten bucks and will occupy you for hours as you slowly produce a long, uneven, but lovely scarf whose pattern came free on the yarn ball. Ten bucks might even be generous— I found several sets of needles at a thrift shop once, and Ravelry has endless amounts of free patterns that you can sort by difficulty. Go forth and be cheap and be happy and Make Things!

“can’t shake the devil’s hand and say you’re only kidding” is the most concise and powerful dismissal of people who are “jokingly” racist and i can’t believe it’s from a They Might Be Giants song
