"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

The New York Times just dropped some worrying news: more kids and teenagers are getting prescribed a bunch of psychiatric meds all at once. Even though doctors are handing out these meds like candy, nobody's sure if they're safe or what they're doing to kids' brains as they grow. This whole mix-and-match med thing is especially going up among kids who are in foster care or have disabilities. It's scary because these meds, which are supposed to help, might not have been checked out properly for young people. So, we're crossing our fingers and hoping for the best without knowing the consequences. It's a big gamble with kids' health, and it feels like we're not taking the best care of our most vulnerable.

Remember, the human brain does not stop developing until you're 25.

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

Basically a repeat of what they did in the 1930s and 40s handing out benzodiazepines in orphanages and calling them "vitamins" and then in the 1950s handing out barbiturates to housewives and calling them "Mother's Little Helper".
