god that unlocked an old memory, my high school bff would always randomly sing that line to me and i would have no clue wtf was goin on lmao

in amy's memoir she has a whole chapter called "my books on divorce" where she says she doesn't want to talk about it because it's "too sad" and "too personal", and instead pitches some titles for books about divorce that would be more realistic with the advice people need/give. she also says she's happy will is the father of her kids and that she's proud they're able to take care of their kids.

i remember they even quarantined together during the beginning of the pandemic too

Quarantining together for the kids is a really awesome thing to do, I'm glad they could do it.

I've thought about what it'd be like to be going through a really hard time and have thousands of strangers commenting on my social media posts about how horrible I am and all the things I did wrong when they know nothing and... idk what'd happen to me. I know to take the internet with a grain of salt but being pelted so consistently with that kind of diatribe would really hurt my mental health.

A few times when I was younger I thought about doing stuff on YouTube and even a few years ago was mulling over a podcast but never got to it and as time rolls on I definitely feel like that laziness ended up benefitting me because I already have an issue with hyper focusing on my flaws by myself, I certainly wouldn't need any outside input LOL
