On September 6, 1992, the decomposed body of Christopher McCandless was discovered by moose hunters just outside the northern boundary of Denali National Park. He had died inside a rusting bus that served as a makeshift shelter for trappers, dog mushers, and other backcountry visitors.
Taped to the door was an S.O.S. note scrawled on a page torn from a novel by Nikolai Gogol. From a cryptic diary found among his possessions, it appeared that McCandless had been dead for nineteen days.
Let’s address the elephant in the room.
Perhaps you grew up in less than ideal circumstances, faced prejudice due to your race, gender, or sexuality, battled health issues, or constantly felt out of place because of your accent or location.
You feel that the universe dealt you a unique hand, making it impossible for your setbacks to be your own doing. Yet, deep within, there’s a nagging feeling that we are often our own biggest obstacle.
Why? Because acknowledging this means we have the power to rewrite our story. If we don’t, the blame squarely falls on our shoulders. It’s a bitter pill to swallow, realizing that we might be the only thing standing in the way of our dreams and aspirations.
Pointing fingers elsewhere is just so much simpler.
But hear me out. I’m not saying you lack ambition or drive. Taking the reins of your life is no small feat. It’s a journey filled with discomfort and moments of self-doubt.
Our instinct is to shield ourselves from pain, often leading us to find external culprits for our woes. Yet, breaking free from this mindset is possible.
In essence, life is about owning your narrative. And when you do, you’ll find that the most compelling chapters are yet to be written.
Life is unpredictable. While you may not have control over every event that unfolds, you have the undeniable power to choose your response. You’re the captain of your emotional ship.
External events might sway and rock your boat, but you decide whether to sail through or let the waves capsize you.
Every reaction, whether instinctive or deliberate, is a testament to your resilience and adaptability.
Embracing this control means understanding that while you can’t always dictate the winds, you can adjust your sails.

Alice in Wonderland may be pure fantasy, but one of Alice’s more bizarre experiences shares its characteristics with a scary mental disorder. Known also as Todd Syndrome, Alice in Wonderland Syndrome causes one’s surroundings to appear distorted. Just as Alice grows too tall for the house, those suffering from Alice in Wonderland Syndrome will hear sounds either quieter or louder than they actually are, see objects larger or smaller than reality, and even lose sense of accurate velocity or textures. This terrifying disorder, which has been described as an LSD trip without the euphoria, even perverts one’s own body image. Fortunately, Alice in Wonderland Syndrome is extremely rare, and in most cases affects those in their 20s who have a brain tumor or history of drug use.
I (25m) have a girlfriend (26f) who’s autistic. Normally I wouldn’t bring this up, but it is relevant to this story. She’s pretty high functioning, but the main way her autism effects her is a really strong special interest in one specific fictional character.
I’ve never had an issue with this, and I try to keep up with whatever’s going on in the fandom for her and listen to her info dumping about her favorite character on a regular basis.
I am so grateful for the heartfelt support I have received from all around the world since. I did not expect my story to spread globally as it has done, but I am delighted that it has, and I hope that it can make a difference to so many women and girls. For so long, I felt as if I was never complete without wearing makeup. Only very recently have I accepted that inner confidence will always shine far more radiantly than any amount of makeup, and doing so has been liberating.
Moving forward, I hope to continue promoting the #barefacetrendmovement to help empower women of all ages to feel confident in their own skin, without feeling as if they have to conceal their self by wearing makeup in order to conform to societal pressures. Although I do still believe that it is okay to use makeup, we should not let makeup define our appearance. Wearing makeup should not be the default option, but a choice and women should be able to embrace their differences.
I just pooped my pants while driving. It was like an hour of clean up.
It was actually loose stool, I just got over a stomach bug.
I was halfway through my hour commute when I let loose. No businesses anywhere in sight. Three times before it actually came out, I could feel it fighting to emerge, but I kept it at bay. Deep down, I knew that something was different, that there was no stopping it.
