I got accepted as a YouTube partner ahhhhh 🥳

So many characters deal with loneliness and/or trying to find their purpose. It’s just so many themes that I can relate to rn. Almost finished & I can’t wait to start shippuden

People probably think i’m being unserious but Naruto really has been saving my life. I haven’t been wanting to be here for the past month and a half, watching characters like Gaara go through the worst trauma imaginable & still find their way back… it gives me some hope

Japanese actor Hiroyuki Sanada spoke about the contradictions of human nature: “Some people dream of having a swimming pool at home, while those who have one hardly ever use it. Those who have lost a loved one feel a profound sense of loss, while others often complain about their living relatives. Those without a partner long for one, while those who have one often don't appreciate it. The hungry would give anything for a meal, while the satiated complain about the taste of their food. Those without a car dream of owning one, while those who have a car are always looking for a better one.” The key to happiness is gratitude: truly seeing and appreciating what we already have, and understanding that somewhere, someone would give anything for what we take for granted.

Having a black woman for a therapist has genuinely already changed my life.

First look at Metal Sonic in ‘SONIC 4’.

I just published my first Substack article on living with depression and anxiety, and the complexities of acknowledging it/asking for help. I hope it resonates with anyone who can relate 🤍 open.substack.com/pub/rmanda/p/t…

I asked for a cozy game rec & someone suggested Elden Ring……

Let this be a strong reminder that games who give us lazily rendered textured hairstyles for black characters (or leaving it out completely) is a choice.

Please buy physical media y’all.
