babe ruthless.

“that’s just the way the world works” it literally doesn’t have to be but okay

if anyone ever tells you “humans are just selfish / life is cruel / that’s just how the world is, get over it” be critical of them bc there’s a 75% chance they’re using that as an excuse to for their own shitty behavior and just don’t want to put the effort into becoming better, kinder people

I am not who I used to be, and I don’t know if that’s a good or bad thing.

i’m the opposite of the grinch. i’m the binch. my heart is two sizes too BIG

having parents that were really angry and petty and abusive when you were young is weird, because it makes part of you grow up to want to be kind, to generate good things, to be a source of peace and wellbeing for others; but it makes another part of you grow up to be quick, and sharp, and spiteful, and that’s always the part that shows itself first in a hard situation, so it’s a struggle between your hateful gut reactions and your wish to not add any more misery to the world. it’s a hard balance, and the people who really, really know me - i know they see that anger flash in my eyes before i quiet it, if i quiet it…i want to overcome years of conditioning, and with gentle, constant force, i know i’ll mellow it. it just takes time.

look. i don’t think my stretch marks are beautiful. i don’t think they’re tiger stripes or natural tattooos. i don’t think my acne is beautiful. i don’t think the bags under my eyes are beautiful. i just think they’re human. and i don’t think i have to be beautiful all of the time in order to be accepted and loved and sucessful. i don’t think every small detail of my outer appearence needs to be translated into prettiness.

all clothes are unisex if you stop giving a shit

Just letting you know that if you’re intimidated by the fact that I’m an adult, you can always unfollow me. Even if we’re mutuals. I won’t judge. And if I’m following you and you’re creeped out by the fact that I’m an adult, just send me a message and I’ll unfollow you. I don’t want you to feel unsafe! 

happiness comes in waves, it’ll find you again.

new year’s eve loses some of its punch when you stay up until three am all year round

Protect your peace.
