Yeah! It’s a new frontier with legalization in a lot of places - the tone of the convo now! Def similarities with any β€œadult use” product, but I’m interested in destigmatization, too (bc of its ongoing benefits we are always discovering) without promoting teen use, etc.

Working on a piece about how parents talk to their kids about *their own* cannabis use now that it’s more socially accepted. Looking to hear from parents + experts (psychologists, pediatricians, substance use counselors). DMs open or email me if you’re up for chatting!

I decided that instead of spending my time writing tonight I am going to learn the dance break choreography from Britney's I'm a Slave 4 U and I promise it'll be just as good of use as my time

They were pregnant. Then doctors found cancer. 4 women on their rare diagnoses. Kat Timpf's "unconventional birth announcement" revealed that she was diagnosed with breast cancer just hours before giving birth. These moms have similar stories.

I'm rewatching Vanderpump Rules from the beginning with my boyfriend (who has never seen it) and I can't fucking believe we all thought Stassi was one of the villains back then????

sometimes just screaming I DON'T KNOOOOWWWWW at my computer when I am having trouble writing really loosens up the gears to go.

I moved out of my family home when my ex and I separated. Downsizing was hard, but I realized it was an opportunity for a fresh start. When I got my own apartment during my separation, I was overwhelmed at first. My friends helped me decorate, and I realized it could be a fresh start.

The scariest part of my day is not the crushing anxiety and doom, it’s having to take that one really large pill in my medication regime. Will this time be the time I choke as my cat watches me slowly lose consciousness and die on the kitchen floor? Who’s to say!
