  • A (Mostly) Cheerful Rant on Influencers and Everyday Choices

    Those Influencer Types

    Influencers! Sometimes it feels like their job descriptions include being crass, lazy, and finding new ways to offend. Their advice? Often about as genuine as diet cola at a pastry convention. No wonder I’m skeptical—if I listened to every “must-have” they peddled, I’d need a second apartment just for face creams and energy drinks..

    Skills I Actually Have (and Enjoy!)

    Now, I’ll admit, I’m not exactly a rocket scientist and yes, there’s a long list of things I don’t excel at—like parallel parking and remembering where I put my glasses. But give me a kitchen or a messy room and I’ll cook, clean, manage my life, and still find time to enjoy a good movie or book. Who needs a university degree when I’ve mastered the fine art of remote-control navigation?

    Shopping: My Way or the Highway

    What really grinds my gears? Being bombarded by everyone and their dog about what I should buy, and why their choice is obviously the best (spoiler: it’s not). I’m all about price, how long stuff lasts, and where it’s from—because nothing says happiness like a well-priced blender that survives more than two smoothies. I keep track of different versions of products because, let’s face it, variety is the spice of life—and the secret to not buying the same disappointing brand twice.

    Food Labels: The Saga

    When it comes to food, I want labels that tell me everything. I want to know where every ingredient spent its summer vacation. Transparency? Yes, please! I want to read about my food’s entire life story, down to the last vitamin and mineral. If I could track the amino acids and get a postcard from each one, I’d be thrilled. Detailed information isn’t just a preference, it’s my secret weapon in the battle against mystery meat and surprise ingredients.
