zutara is part of what i call the Trifecta of Bullshit, consisting of three very popular heterosexual ships that have no basis in canon and involve a morally gray male character that's heavily desired by the general fanbase and a female character that is easy to project onto and in fanfiction, is unlike their canon self, because it's the idealized fantasy version of the reader. the ships are dramione, reylo, and zutara.

being single sucks [remembers that romantic love isnt the gleaming beacon of salvation that will fix the chasm within me] #mychasm #isupportmychasm [remembers not to trivialize my emotions] but it is painful to never have been deemed worthy of that kind of lasting love [remembers how many incels there are] but honestly you should be totally self-sufficient and never want anything ever [remembers that im evil] im evil

Most people need to be failed a number of times over and over again by objective experience before they are open to the possibility, either intuitively or at the suggestion of a friend, that the peace and happiness for which they seek does not lie in objective experience, but lies in the knowing of their own being as it truly is. For some people. They only have to really suffer once to realize that I have invested my happiness in this object or in this relationship and it has let me down—every object or relationship, sooner or later, lets me down—some people only need to taste that failure once or twice before they are open to this new possibility, whereas other people suffer bitterly throughout their lives. — Rupert Spira 🪻🐇

i reblogged this last year and then never thought of it again and guess what? i was let down :')

Romanticizing your own loneliness and turning it into a cool girl thing only works for like a few months and then it just becomes a throbbing black hole i think. Not that ive ever experienced anything like that

it really is crazy how quickly people were willing to just let chatgpt do everything for them. i have never even tried it. brother i don't even know if it's just a website you go to or what. i do not know where chatgpt actually lives, because i can decide my own grocery list.
