Helloooo Tamia Talkers, Happy Sunday! I hope this weekend brought you some peace and joy. I return to you today with my ins and outs.
February is all about hating that little groundhog who tells us that winter will be everlasting, proving to yourself that you can still chase after all of the goals, dreams, and wishes you put on your 2025 vision board (against all odds), and being in a state of pure and radiant love.
I cannot wait until Valentine’s Day and Galentine’s Day. I always have the best of times.
Here are my ins and outs for the month. Feel free to share yours in the comments below :)
in
strawberry horchata
the faithfuls winning “traitors” because the traitors are clowns
spa days
heartbreak rage anthems (i’m not heartbroken which makes them so much more fun)
demi moore’s dog pilaf + ariana grande in a perfectly tailored pantsuit (see: this photo dump)
romantic gestures and love letters
scrunchies, kind of, maybe just at home
being mad at orpheus (for doing what he did)
a good cry and a weighted blanket
leo dicaprio romeo + juliet and aquarius moons
regularly volunteering with a community organization
whatever the opposite of all the men on mad men is (non-demon men <3)
getting your library card (if you don’t have one) and classpass (use my link lol )
build your own floral arrangement activities (i did this yesterday, slayed)
giving up a social platform for the month and reading a book (or five)
young boston rob (i’m sorry, i did not recognize your game!)
out
road rage (are you okay? should we call someone?)
giving waiters or any service worker anxiety with your chaotic order
long lines at usps (but not the workers, you are fine)
when hailee steinfeld and jonathan bailey wore blue contacts for respective lead roles (let white people have brown eyes!)
toeless socks…because why?
leaving public comments on venmo or any money exchange platforms (no one needs to know this much about you! i’m so sorry!)
killing off characters who have lost relevancy (how about they just leave? ghosting them sans murder seems far more realistic)
unnecessarily challenging returns for the thing you shouldn’t have bought in the first place and overconsumption
uncomfortable shoes
bringing your boyfriend to fitness class (unless he’s not good at the workout, which will make me feel great)
reckless abandon
not having rhythm (i think i’ve said this before, but there has to be a way)
when you wear leather pants but they are too hot for the environment you’re inhabiting
bad news (as the wicked witch of the west sings in “the wiz,” i really need the universe to stop dropping this on the girls!)
not subscribing to this newsletter if you made it to the end of this freaking list (I see you diva, stand up, this is clown behavior!! let’s be friends!)
IN— feeling deeply about the art you experience
OUT— diets and count-downs to summer bodies
