like the green, goes with the orange

One time a friend told me that if she wanted to have a chill night she would come to me and ask for tea and a book to read. I didn’t like tea at the time, but I always made sure my cupboards had them in case she needed a quiet night. One time I told my boss that I loved oranges, but couldn’t peel them because of my nails. For a year he made sure to peel me one at least once a week. Once my friends gave me a made up superlative of “most likely to have a pen they could borrow” and ever since I’ve made sure I always carry a pen with me. A long time ago, my high school librarian told me that no one would care what my grade in my sophomore chemistry class was if I’m bringing them doughnuts and asking them about their day.

Sometimes friendship is about carrying pens and peeling oranges. But the point is, surrounding yourself with people who you want to do the little things for. The point of it all is bringing in the doughnuts because you’ve found the people who deserve the doughnuts.

How sweet it is to be with people you enjoy taking care of

man on reddit earnestly explaining to me that the iliad is actually a pro-war book because the gods in the book instigate and cultivate the conflicts and I'm like... what does that have to do with anythi--ohhhh you are coming at this from a fully christian understanding of gods and worship and don't or can't understand that just because a greek god is depicted doing something doesn't mean that us earthly humans are meant to think this is a good or worthwhile or benevolent thing, and that the greek gods' playacting at war in the iliad is basically a disrespectful farce of the very real lives lost on the battlefield, and that even the gods themselves spend the whole book shitting on ares, and that if homer has any message regarding the gods, it is that they are uncaring and cruel but whatever go off king
