i’m going to be really honest with you guys i think the tendency to read the absolute worst possible intentions into every action you don’t agree with is getting too automatic and it’s eating you from the inside out

hopefully i'll get to do something other than endure soon. that would be really nice

truly life is one great beautiful tapestry

I know it's not great from, like, a Being Functional Or Secure standpoint, but aesthetically I kind of love how websites for banks and universities and government agencies and such just sort of accrete layer upon layer of technologies without ever taking the lower layers out of the stack, and if you need to do something sufficiently obscure eventually you'll break through to some Web 1.0-looking form with a "Last Modified" footer whose timestamp isn't part of this millennium.

theyre taking me out back behind the shed presumably to give me a medal for my valor and heroism

people on here are always saying “we NEED a story where the art of storytelling is abandoned” like ugh literary devices are soo annoying like that wouldn’t happen in real life that only happened to further the story (why is there story in my story) why would orpheus turn around when he was explicitly told not to why would icarus fly so close to the sun romeo&juliet catcher in the rye why are they so earnest why pour your heart and soul into anything why bother why cant all art be quippy logical monotony like my marvel movies there’s a void in my heart bc i refused to fill it and the curtains were blue

“i hate poetry its so pretentious” but then you reblog a quote or a throwaway line and say “why does this go so hard” you are desperate for poetry you are starved for it and u dont even realise you’re hungry

sucking at something is the first step to getting good at it

I passed a flower shop next to a tattoo shop and at first I laughed because I thought it was ironic and then i freaked because IMAGINE YOUR OTP IN A FLORIST/TATTOO ARTIST AU

OMG I COULD TOTALLY IMAGINE THEM LIKE THAT IT WOULD BE SO PERFECT

as a feminist and fujoshi for heterosexuality, it is my belief that the greatest trick the devil ever played was convincing a generation that the most interesting fictional m/f dynamic (and maybe even the one which is most respectful to women) is one where an interesting woman is fucking a boring and skittish baby man who is obsessed with her as a concept. and they’ll say she’s pegging him but what they mean is that she orders for him in restaurants and maybe, like, wears winged eyeliner. you aren’t even actually letting this fictional woman dominate this fictional man you’re just gesturing at the idea because you have misogynistic ideas around “active” vs “passive” sexual roles and what they say about a person’s moral behavior. how are we meant to get out of this patriarchy if you can’t even envision that woman from your shows having fulfilling sex with someone she is attracted to.

Remember in 2010 when Taio Cruz said "I throw my hands up in the air sometimes"? I appreciated his restraint. You can't just throw your hands up in the air whenever. There's a time and a place, and that time was 2010, and the place was the club.
