Unclear

my friends and I have started saying “unclear” instead of “I don’t know” & it is unclear how this started but it is so nice to not immediately place blame on yourself for not being omniscient! Highly suggest trying this out

Say “im…..ok” instead of “im good”

editing yourself

Next time you write something, look back at it after 24 hours. Try to change any Latinisms to simpler, more Germanic words. (Change ‘fortunate’ to ‘lucky’, for example). Try to change passive verbs to active (‘we threw the rock’ vs ‘the rock was thrown’). If the word or phrase would be used in a corporate setting, get rid of it (‘in terms of’, ‘circle back’, ‘action items’ can be changed to ‘about’/’regarding’, ‘come back to this’, ‘things to do’ etc. Hope this stuff isn’t too obvious and is perhaps a little helpful.

hometowns

People you haven’t seen in years, wounds healed by time, affordable food and drink, family, watching TV. If you’re as lucky as me there‘ll be seaside and countryside too. Maybe it wasn’t about the destination, but the friends we made along the way?
