Let’s talk about “hood gothic.” Young men scrubbing blood and brains off their white sneakers with old toothbrushes. The caterwauling of crackheads in the alley, punctuated by what you hope is only a car backfiring or a kid playing with firecrackers. Windows blacked out with aluminum foil and bedsheets, windows boarded up with plywood, broken windows gaping like enucleated eyes. Winos babbling in tongues outside the corner store, beseeching man, god, and the devil himself for just one more dollar, one more bottle. Graffiti like sigils, like signposts to the underworld, illegible letters pointing toward the trap house in the cul-de-sac. Old ladies in house coats sitting on the front porch, surveying the block with rheumy eyes.

my beautiful wife, severe thunderstorm warning, is texting me 😌😚😍😍

to be honest im really sick of the fact that fat people are supposed to suck it up when other peoples worst fear is looking like them

the Beatles would exist in star wars but they'd be actual beetles. they'd look like the real Beatles but w like insect antenna and they'd be part of an alien species who are all musicians. they'd all have star warsed versions of their names except for Ringo bcos Ringo Starr is already a star wars name.

Hanging out with people will make you remember you're the crazy woke friend for like. not wanting to shop at shien

if you're viewed as a conventionally attractive woman you're punished bc you need to be knocked down a peg for thinking you had any inherent value and if you're viewed as unattractive you're punished for daring to exist without permission but that's how it is innit there's no winning when the system was designed to make you lose in the first place! 🤣

i think tumblr ads automatically opening a tab on your phone if you touch them while scrolling should be considered a form of malware

the thing is like men and men really cant be friends because the sex part does always get in the way like thats true. and i mean that like im actually dead serious about that

like have you ever seen two straight men attempt to be friends with each other but the gay sex they arent having is literally preventing them from the transformative healing power of friendship. this is real

i dont even mean this in a "they want to fuck each other" way (although many of them do and will never know it) i mean that like the fact that gay sex is even hypothetically possible between them makes it loom over their friendship like it genuinely haunts them that they could be having it. gay sex is the elephant in the room every time they attempt to be emotionally vulnerable with one another, every time they let a hug linger too long. they cannot address its existence and so there is always something in their way, preventing true connection. and that something is the gay sex. that they are not having. the elephant of gay sex
