Andrea Carr @andreacpa0.bsky.social · 11hi am once again asking everyone to stop expecting me to know what i’m doing 100
Andrea Carr @andreacpa0.bsky.social · 02/10/2026does anyone else get bizarrely excited about cleaning out a trash can or is my inner raccoon finally becoming impossible to suppress? 000
Andrea Carr @andreacpa0.bsky.social · 02/10/2026my problem is that i have the ambition of someone who has significantly more energy than i actually possess. 000
Andrea Carr @andreacpa0.bsky.social · 02/10/2026i don’t feel like i’m moving fast enough through life, but i also don’t know where i’m supposed to be going. 000
Andrea Carr @andreacpa0.bsky.social · 02/10/2026i’m trying to rewire years of “you suck at everything” into “you’re actually pretty capable,” and apparently my brain has classified confidence as a suspicious activity. 020
Andrea Carr @andreacpa0.bsky.social · 02/10/2026apparently my childhood defense against arrogance was to develop absolutely no confidence whatsoever. excellent long-term planning. 000
Andrea Carr @andreacpa0.bsky.social · 02/10/2026my therapist: “what are you good at?” me: “i’m not sure. let me consult the asian maternal committee that has been reviewing my performance since 1987.” 000
Andrea Carr @andreacpa0.bsky.social · 02/10/2026my mother trained me to have humility so effectively that now i have to actively remind myself that confidence is not arrogance 000
Andrea Carr @andreacpa0.bsky.social · 02/10/2026i’m trying to practice positive self-talk, but every time i tell myself “i’m really good at this,” my asian mother’s voice immediately goes, “oh, now you think you’re better than everyone?” 000
Andrea Carr @andreacpa0.bsky.social · 02/10/2026asian mothers: “you suck at everything. don’t get a big head.” me, 40 years later: “okay but what if we acknowledge one thing i did well so im not crying in the corner about how much i suck?” asian mom: “nahhhh that no good” 000
Andrea Carr @andreacpa0.bsky.social · 02/10/2026i know i packed it. i just don’t know where “it” is, and apparently that distinction matters. 000
Andrea Carr @andreacpa0.bsky.social · 01/10/2026bugs are essentially nature’s unsolicited notifications 000
Andrea Carr @andreacpa0.bsky.social · 01/10/2026i am a firm believer in freedom of expression, particularly when expressing “absolutely not, i’m too tired.” 000
Andrea Carr @andreacpa0.bsky.social · 01/10/2026i have no idea what mood i’m in, but it appears to be expensive 021
Andrea Carr @andreacpa0.bsky.social · 01/10/2026if anyone needs me, I’ll be recovering emotionally with a bowl of egg drop soup and the dignity I have left 000
Andrea Carr @andreacpa0.bsky.social · 01/10/2026trying to convince myself it wasn’t that embarrassing while actively crying, which feels like a pretty strong counterargument immma go eat gecko poo, it’s become my comfort foo 000
Andrea Carr @andreacpa0.bsky.social · 01/10/2026today’s mood: easily inconvenienced, deeply committed to it 000
Andrea Carr @andreacpa0.bsky.social · 01/10/2026i’m introverted and moody, which means i can be overwhelmed by people who aren’t even here 000
Andrea Carr @andreacpa0.bsky.social · 01/10/2026i’m moody enough to need space and introverted enough to enjoy it 000
Andrea Carr @andreacpa0.bsky.social · 01/10/2026being an introvert is just having a deep appreciation for plans that involve nobody else 020
Andrea Carr @andreacpa0.bsky.social · 01/10/2026my personality today is “please don’t make me explain why.” 000

Andrea Carr @andreacpa0.bsky.social · 30/09/2026my mood changes, but thankfully my desire to stay home remains consistent 000
Andrea Carr @andreacpa0.bsky.social · 30/09/2026“know thyself,” said socrates. unfortunately, i am still trying to determine whether i am introverted or simply tired. 100

Andrea Carr @andreacpa0.bsky.social · 28/09/2026somewhere between 30 and now, “treating myself” stopped meaning a night out and started meaning I bought the good paper towels 000
Andrea Carr @andreacpa0.bsky.social · 28/09/2026nothing makes me happier than hearing “actually, never mind.” 000
Andrea Carr @andreacpa0.bsky.social · 28/09/2026my refrigerator has a light, which is nice. now my disappointment is illuminated. 000
