fake confidence

Whenever I start a new course or I meet new people, I pretend I’m this super confident guy and goodness it helps my social anxiety disappear so fast.

pretend!!

I relate so much to your plight!! Being confident is genuinely so difficult, but everyday is a chance to practice. Something I do? Play pretend. Listening to music that pumps me up and wearing an outfit I like usually helps, but the rest is all an elaborate disguise. At first I thought it was delusional for me to think I’m hot shit, and it felt silly to even pretend like it was true. Recently, I’ve actually started to believe it, and I think normalizing that thought in my head through pretending really helped.

the player by robert altman as fashion inspiration

i have been thinking a lot about oversized suits lately. prob via osmosis of all this talking heads hype from the last year. w/e, i love the big blazer look. very "toontown villain". something about this style is a little untrustworthy, like ur a walking optical illusion. makes me want to start carrying things around in a briefcase: open to reveal just a shitty romance novel and a box of swedish fish. anyway, in this movie, almost every single character wears an iconic suit of this variety, and i'd say it exponentially adds to its charm.
