make the whole place shimmer

What helped me write trauma better is remembering that the nervous system learns predictions. If danger used to come after quiet, calm can feel threatening. If kindness used to come with a price, kindness can feel suspicious. So healing is not just “they know they’re safe now.” Healing is the slow, annoying, deeply unfair process of teaching the body that the old prediction is not always the present truth.

Whatttt is with the tendency of Tumblr users to seek absolution from every single person who offhandedly posts about disagreeing with something they do

I say this not unkindly, but firmly: to function as a member of a social species, you have to get comfortable with the idea that not everyone will like you

On a good day, I type 80 to 85 wpm.

I think the reason I still enjoy tumblr is that even though this all still pisses me off, I know that anything that makes me mad on here is 100% earnest. It's not ragebait or engagement farming, y'all are actually just that stupid sometimes

The best decision secretary 2002 made was to be a comedy. It was never a raunchy erotic thriller and it never will be. And because of that, the characters aren't trapped in needing to be Constantly Sexy. Lee plays with her hair and taps her feet and sniffs constantly and wears frumpy clothes and isn't the best at makeup. Edward Grey is a dom, sure, but is also the human equivalent of a nervous chihuahua. Lee does anything and he gets so horny about it he has to do situps. He's so scared of his ex he physically hides from her. They're silly and unsexy and it's great

I don't get why people outside of the US think that Yankee is some sort of devastating insult. You sound like Robert E Lee.
