hey son,
watcha readin?

Since I was 16, there'd be the thoughts that "my youth is fleeting." Pssh! My youth is here; my youth is now! Repeat it after me: my youth is here; my youth is now!

Another day with more vanity. I've been obsessing over photosensitizing ingredients in the cosmetics I use and when I should put sunscreen on. (first thing in the morning? but why if I'm not going outside? to avoid pre-mature aging? that's such a ridiculous worry! but I sincerely care about my skin, but then again it's such a ridiculous worry! and if you care about your skin so much, then why not apply sunscreen to the rest of your visible body, too? because I only care about how much face looks, but that's a valid and reasonable point, why don't I? I don't want to look goofy, do I? -this sort of thing goes on for hours into the day until i find something to distract myself with, or I'll decide to put off sunscreen UNLESS I'm going outside- but who cares if you look goofy, because if you genuinely care and believe in something then you shouldn't care! but I do care, and I care enough about how I look to other people [and myself, of course] to apply sunscreen daily.)

I've been wanting to wear sunscreen daily but I feel narcissistic and effeminate for doing so, but I also understand that those things in small doses aren't terrible. Self-care is fine, but I'm aware that this is obsessive; to put sunscreen on or not to put sunscreen on, that is the question. What about the photosensitizing ingredients in the cleanser I use? If I sit inside all day, then sure, I won't be sunburnt unless the light rays are directed towards me through the window, and that's impossible because the window I'm closest to is under a patio roof and there are trees that provide shade, but also what about when I want to leave the house? Will I have to apply sunscreen every time I leave the house? What if I forget? Is it just simpler to apply after cleansing?

I'm unaware of any that deals with this topic, so please recommend something.

Books where every character is a piece of shit (i.g. "human") .
