Happy new year!!! do you have any resolutions?

Get my top surgery done, lose weight again and manage to stay around 160/170lbs, mend some personal bridges if at all pobsible, keep developing my art career, learn at least one of the skills I've been wanting to pick up for years, and cease working postal by the end of the year~! 🎉

No, I see new year's resolutions as something like groupthink, since new year's is just another day, just numbers on a calendar, arbitrary demarcations.. if there were something I wanted to do I could have made a resolution at any time. I've never made a new year's resolution in my life, that I remember.

Also, I read sometime last year that new year's resolutions are ineffectivevat best, I think the study actually found they're detrimental, I don't remember why, maybe it was because people make too lofty of resolutions and then just give them up wholesale instead of just doing a little bit like they would have..

I I hope you have a good year too. don’t hae any resolution, as I’m not a fan of the concept. I prefer to try better myself whithout a yearly schedule.

I don't have any serious ones because resolutions never work, so the silly ones: to love @rainbowpink and to convince @LianSirenia she's cute
