What’s it like to be a Narcissist
Being a narcissist isn’t what most people think it is. It’s not walking around thinking you’re better than everyone else all the time. It’s not constant confidence or arrogance or being some cartoon villain manipulating everyone around you while you twirl a mustache. It’s a lot more pathetic than that, honestly. It’s about power—but specifically, needing power to feel okay. To feel safe.

Can we ever fully heal from childhood trauma, or do we just learn to carry it differently?
If you went through hell as a kid—if the people who were supposed to protect you ended up being the ones you needed protection from—you’ve probably wondered if you’ll ever really get past it.

5 Iconic Artworks Worth Slowing Down For
Guernica – Pablo Picasso, 1937
Let me get this out of the way: if Guernica doesn’t stop you in your tracks, check your pulse. This isn’t just one of Picasso’s masterpieces—it’s one of the only works of art that still feels like it’s on fire.

Just black, white, and the kind of gray that lives in the back of your throat when you’re trying not to cry. Horses collapsing. Women howling. A child dead in a mother’s arms. Light bulbs as eyes.
