honestly it works like a dream. garlic is optional. you can brew a big batch and just heat up individual cups as you need.
also adding a bit of eucalyptus oil to a bowl of steaming water and just breathing the fumes. helps to clear sinuses.

makes my throat feel SCORCHING and so good, combined with lemon and a shit ton of local honey i can finally fight allergies and be relatively normal
also slicing ginger and watching it boil is oddly therapeutic

whenever i feel a sick feeling coming on i like to chop up lots of fresh ginger and boil it in some water for about 10-15 minutes to make a rlly strong ginger tea. it's usually super spicy but a few cups of that, maybe a lil honey and lemon, throughout the day should do wonders :)

i don't think anyone ever intends to become a recreational ornithologist. but i've noticed that it definitely creeps up on you slowly in your mid-twenties. it starts with noticing how funny pigeons are, then learning pigeon lore, and suddenly you're feeding your neighbourhood birds every morning and buying books on birds. as a child i idolised the pigeon lady in home alone 2, and i woke up this morning and realised โ i AM the pigeon lady ๐ฆ

reading is a habit of building and developing your empathy and critical thinking skills. youโre forced to sit with an idea for however long you are reading it and forced to contextualise it and comprehend it within your own life and perspective. You canโt just scroll away or pause or put it on 2x speed. you have to sit with it. itโs super underrated, but genuinely Iโve made this a habit for the last year and feel like a totally different person. also you come out of it having learned something new or seeing the world in a slightly new way. I literally do not see any downsides to reading. make reading cool again! also you donโt have to do it in one big block, you can space it out โ 15 mins here, 45 there โ whatever works for you!

our cultural obsession with being perceived as cool is a disease. its peak capitalistic/consumerist propaganda. fuck being cool. like what you like and who cares if it's cool or not. it's tiresome and we need to leave it in 2024. literally nothing gives me the ick more than people who betray themselves in an attempt to be perceived as cool by the masses. be yourself โ even if it means you're 'uncool'.
