what the heck did i do this summer? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Overcommit, overdeliver, overoptimize. Like a well-behaved cog in the capitalist machine, I instinctively put undue pressure on myself to excel, even in my free time.

Read excerpt
When I say “I love Italian food”, I’m usually only referring to pasta and lasagna. I know Italian food is not a monolith and admittedly don’t know much about regional Italian cuisine.
