It feels so weird to use my real name on socials now that I'm trying to build up my brand.
I feel vulnerable but I want the visibility.
@BillyBones o
Sorry for the late reply, yes, it is!!!! Near my house ❤️
@ceorl thank you 🥺
I finished another painting! And when I got to the photography lab to get it scanned, the clerk completely identified me by my style 😍❤️
@ordenauta it was my favorite website back in the 00's, I'm surprised it still exist!
Moving from Mexico, where everyday I thought about violence, to the Netherlands, where everyday I think about the housing crisis, makes me feel like I traded personal space for safety.
@Agatha yeah, you're right! As long as compassion is above all, everything will be OK.
My partner and I have a lot of childhood trauma.
It's funny, we're constantly apologizing to each other for the most minimal thing.
@LnzyHou me, my partner and my daughter live in a house waaay smaller than that. (around 400sqf) We cannot afford anything bigger.
The housing crisis is getting worse.
Last stage capitalism has gotten so bad that even having enough personal space has become a privilege.
Mexico finally decriminalizes abortion nationwide and it makes me SO HAPPY!
Finally, a fight me and all my Mexican women who fought day and night for legislation that would protect women's rights.
It is just a small step but it is one in the right direction.
A win for EVERYONE!
How am I going to be the best, if my boss tells everyone they're the best?
How many "you're the best" should I get until I get a raise?
I got a flu and I cannot speak properly. So my natural Mexican accent blends with my constipated nose so it sounds like I'm speaking an alien language.
I now speak alien Dutch and alien English.
@Gramdma2011 I hope we both feel better about it soon. I wish you a nice genuine friendship!
@LnzyHou you're right, I should do it only for myself. And the spa day is really a good idea, there's a place around my house that I've been wanting to try. Thank you for the advice, I appreciate it!
My partner wonders why I feel so isolated from that group of friends.
They've been doing small parties without inviting me!
And then I have my exhibition and some come to support me.
How would I know they do it from the heart? It's so confusing.
Soon will be the celebration of my country's independence day and they are organizing to celebrate it at the embassy and I'm not sure if I'll join.
I've been feeling quite weird lately.
So isolated from who I considered friends, not being able to get a deep connection with people besides family.
It's so strange because some people have been supporting, but I don't feel supported. I have a group of "friends" that make me feel left out.
And then I'll have to think about my own birthday in a month.
@Yesidolift I went to check out the comments for the video and there were a lot so I couldn't find anything related 😅
During my art exhibition I spent the weekend in an anarchist culture center and talking to people living off grid.
Now I am back in my corporate job, with suits who work for the biggest companies in the world.
Tonight, I'll go to the Yeah Yeah Yeah's concert.
Lots of cognitive dissonance.
@nonayadambidnes thank you!
