Anonymous asked: You should make a FAQ! I'm a new follower and love your blog and I really just want to know more about you and where your work comes from!
Oh man, I’m definitely not cool enough to have one of those!
Seriously though, if you want to know anything just ask.
I can be shit at answering my inbox because I get a lot of questions in a day (loads of which are anon insults!) so it’s a bit overwhelming for me, but I do check and try to answer as often as my self-esteem will allow!
Plus I don’t mind being asked the same question multiple times and I’d feel a bit like a pompous ass directing someone to my FAQ…
But no judgement on those who have them, it’s just not for me!
So I’m about to leave for Pittsburgh,
because I forgot some things in my flat that I need by tomorrow!
Which means four hours out, get there around midnight, rest for two hours, leave around two, get home at six.
This is NOT going to be fun.
I think that Facebook is the biggest waste of time, because everyone is just presenting such a filtered picture of themselves. You only put up your best pictures. People only check in when they are at the fanciest restaurant in the city. They only keep things up there that are flattering to themselves. I just think it’s like keeping up with the Joneses, but for life. You’re never going to get on top of it. Someone’s always going to have a better job than you, go on better vacations than you, have a better looking wife than you, or whatever it is. So, it’s superficiality on top of superficiality. You never get to see the real parts of people.

This is the EXACT reason I can no longer maintain a facebook. After being away from it for so long….I can’t accept that version of reality or people anymore.
