BEHOLD! ART!

I ended up having a really interesting conversation with some people at the bus stop today. They were getting out of some sort of ‘clean and sober’ meeting and had starting saying how they were so bored because they didn’t have anything to do, and had to stay at home because all their old friends would pull them back. So I said something like, ‘So this is the time to do all the stuff your parents told you they didn’t have money/time for!’ “Whatcha mean?” “You know, like when you were five and you REALLY wanted to have that toy or do that thing and you were like, ‘Please mom please I gotta have this I gotta go do this’ and they went ‘Hell no you think I’m paying for that do you want to goddamn EAT?’ “ And this light went on in their eyes. The lady is going to go check thrift stores for an Easybake Oven and I told her about Wilton cake decorating classes. The dude is going to Griffith Park and ride horses, because, ‘I always wanted to be a cowboy, and you can’t drink when you’re on a horse ‘cause you’ll fucking die!’ Fuck it. This is what being an adult is. Sure it’s bills and work and relationships, but damn it, it’s also time to do the things you LIKE. I signed up for a free class/lecture on Water Gardens. I’m going. It’s time.

Jill. Jill you are wonderful.

no joke, this is such an important aspect of overcoming trauma. I mean the trauma of abusive parents, the trauma of broke ass parents who got toxic because of it, the trauma of capitalism. Like fuck it. Go to Wrestlemania. Build a shit ton of terrariums.

What is the funniest pokemon move

imagining a book in the library of babel that has a coherent sentence i disagree with and getting really mad

if I love someone and they have a compulsive uncontrollable need to engage in behaviors that target and extract resources from vulnerable classes who will absolutely kill themselves out of shame and terror and guilt if anyone ever finds out, and I blithely push the towards continuing those behaviors because I don’t want to hurt their feelings, I don’t think my love is worth very much.

I also….. really don’t love the members of the targeted group being harvested for resources and I don’t see what’s being done to them as harmful. As far as I’m concerned, they’re fuel for my friend’s well being.

fucking hate humidity. you're air! stop acting wet!!

I feel it would be good to have a word that's like not ragebait but shamebait, where you can read a post and just go 'ah, this person just wants me to feel ashamed of myself and is not engaging with the issue in a constructive or useful way. I do not have to participate in this actually' and like. move on with your day

my empire of dust is pretty sweet right? we build awesome shit every day and watch it blow away at the turn of midnight. lowkey you stop grieving the losses and instead start being excited for tomorrow's new creations. it's totally sick you should join us

we're thinking of taking down those trunkless legs of stone because they're too permanent. doesn't fit the vibe yk
