Dreamworks really needs to make a movie about the story of the little boy fishing on the moon, like who is he? Why is he on the moon? Did he ever catch a fish? There are the questions that have haunted me at the theaters since 1994.
I have been a huge fan of Marie Kondo since her book first launched. And trust me, I binge watched her new show in an evening. However I often see people talk about how they couldn’t do it because they aren’t fans of minimalism (even my own sister said that) which blows my mind because I am far from a minimalist!
Here’s where I feel a lot of people get her ideas wrong. Because it’s not about throwing out everything and embracing a minimalist life style. It’s about only keeping things you enjoy. If having a bookcase full of books you love sparks joy great! A stack of magazines in a box in your basement isn’t doing the same for you. Keeping a dozen ugly oversized t-shirts isn’t bring joy to your life, they should go. Loving funky printed socks and having a drawer full on the other hand might spark joy in you so keep those.
This is why I actually recommend people read her second book “Spark Joy” before actually reading her first book. She breaks down the idea behind keeping only things that spark joy, and even explains what she means by that. I often see people ask “how can a can opener bring joy? Or a toilet plunger? How about my recycling can??” and as she explains it, you are thankful to have these things when needed, so indeed they spark joy.
Konmari isn’t about tossing over everything and living minimalistic, it’s about making sure you surround yourself with things you love so you can care more deeply (and in turn take care of them) it’s about being aware of what we have in our homes, and maybe becoming more aware of what we bring into them. It’s about envisioning the home you want and working positively towards that goal. If for you it is a simple and sparse home wonderful, but if not konmari is still for you. 😊
who the FUCK told society that depression and awkwardness is cute and adorable
As the “FBI Agent Watching Me” meme gets bigger, people begin drawing their FBI-sonas, and come up with headcanons for their respective agents. A few of these characters (basic white guys, probably with white hair) get popular, as the Onceler, Sans and Komeda did. Some shipping wars commence. FBI-sona discourse ensues. I finally delete my goddamn tumblr.
Huge thanks to @thenib for having me make this comic! If Tumblr’s resizing makes parts illegible, you can also read the nicer original version over on The Nib’s website: “Fatness, Femininity, and the Media We Deserve”
