Ephemeral

Fleeting short posts.

  • To the Latine community:

    “My kids will not be «no sabo kids»” has the same energy as “My kids will not be gay.”

    You wanna teach your kids spanish so they can be connected to the culture? That’s one thing.

    You wanna teach your kids spanish because you think not knowing it makes them a lesser member of the community? You’re the problem.

  • When someone tells you and shows you they’re emotionally unavailable, believe them.

    You’re wasting your time and energy on someone who will not reciprocate.

  • This morning I introduced my niece to «Rapper’s Delight» by The Sugarhill Gang.

    It was the long version. And when my niece saw how long it was she exclaimed:

    “It’s 12 minutes long?! The longest song on my playlist is 5 minutes! Why is this song so long?!” 😂

  • An unsafe person acts without considering how their actions may impact you.

    Why keep someone in your life when you’re not even a thought in theirs?

  • President Biden needs to have his own Holiday Sales Event, and grant citizenship to every immigrant in the US, pardon all personal debt (school, medical, credit card, etc), tax all churches, and expand and pack the Supreme Court.

    That’s what I want for Christmas. 🎅🏽

  • “I make amazing ramen” is one of the sexiest things I’ve heard today. 🥰

  • Is it just me or is GIPHY becoming useless? I used to be able to find GIFs for any expression, especially anime.

    But now, the search results are lackluster, and it seems like the anime GIFs are disappearing.

    I find myself using Tenor more and more. Not quite like GIPHY used to be, but so much better than what GIPHY is now.

  • This month I’m turning 43 and entering year 7 of being single.

    In the last 7 years I intentionally decentered dating and romantic relationships.

    Doing so helped me realize I’d been on the «dating and relationship» treadmill.

    My focus shifted from «looking for the one» to «looking to my Self». That led to healing, inner peace, and radical acceptance of Self.

    I’m still a romantic at heart and hope for a beautiful love story. But my happiness is independent of the realization of that hope.

  • An embrace can calm your heart, soothe your mind, and heal your spirit.

    An embrace creates the safe space to melt your worries away and ease your pain.

    An embrace is an exchange of energy, a recharge of batteries, a mutual love giving.

    An embrace is where you find a home, a refuge, a friend.

  • Was reminded of the Meet Joe Black soundtrack tonight, and now I’m listening to it.

    Such beautiful music. Composed by Thomas Newman. One of my favorite film composers.
