it was about my high school’s magnet drama program. I was writing it to blow off steam and because I was holding too much, and I really didn’t expect for it to be read. someone must’ve been googling their name (first name! I only used first names) and the name of our program because it got out … to the whole school. they were talking about it in my English class and debating who wrote it in AP psych. nowhere was safe but math.

📖I ended up going to high school on a scholarship so there's a lot of rich kid, scions of people who make all their money in tech nonsense I had to put up with, but I spent most of my days listening to obscure music and smoking a ton of weed. There was a girl who was infamously known for not being smart, but she also supplied all the booze at the parties so nobody ever brought it up. She got into USC, somehow, and everyone thought something was up but didn't say anything, since, booze at parties. Later, that Varsity Blues thing happened, and it turned out that her and her sister's parents were one of the highest spenders in gaming the system, so they ended up getting perp walked by the cops in front of the whole school, which really put into perspective the weird little world I happened to be adjacent to.
Oh there was also a white kid (who was also student body president) who tried out a rap career, and the terrible track leaked and it spread all over, to the point of blaring it over the speakers at prom, I don't know if I have a copy but it was hysterical to hear in a fancy hotel ballroom.

🏫it was hell on earth to go through but now it’s just kind of funny lore.
my school was kind of like euphoria high mixed with gossip girl but with hate crimes.
multiple people that i went to high school with should be in jail.

⭐Get back in touch with that one teach who made you read Dubliners or A Fan's Notes or whatever. They love spilling tea about the other teachers you hated who made you read Beowulf.
It's usually awful information, but nonetheless scintillating information

🤐just compliment them! just tell them you love their outfit! just tell them their haircut is perfect and you can't find that on pinterest! tell them "i like you," so their brain can relax and they can just be. tell them when you're reminded of something they said or taught you. tell them "i was thinking about you!" and mean it.
...this is just the pep talk i needed

extend the life of your clothes by covering holes or stains with embroidery floss and yarn while giving them new cool zombie flair! you don’t even have to be neat, the more imperfect the weave the more organic the result. the best mended garments are almost fungal, covered in sick multi-colored lichen.
