I used to be flourishing as an artist. Now I’m just trying to not end up in a camp within the next 4+ years
ideally producing scientific research and art but in practice I’m just trying to minimize my own suffering :/

How do you do the first?
Personally, I indulge my wanderlust and love of good food.

I don’t give a shit. It’s fun as hell and I get to cook wonderful food for the ones I love.
Nothing wrong with living a cliché
To work for some asshole and make just enough money to get by.
To reduce human suffering by some degree, even if it’s insignificant in the big picture.
Currently just trying to be a girl, be kind, and trying to help the people around me.
