But I have tried everything that does

It's crazy that social media broadly never adopted the queue, an iconically great Tumblr feature. I love the feeling of hurling posts into a void through which they will later emerge in an orderly fashion.

For me, it's Drafts. The ability to say YEAH but not now

as a woman you're always too young or too old for things because the perfect age is when you're a man

"a moment on the lips a lifetime on the hips" is so fucking crazy to me because that just sounds like a win/win

stretch for five minutes. your back has been doing a lot without complaining, and it deserves some attention

After I came out as an adult to my childhood best friend, he went back to his family and told them and then when we next spoke he said, ‘we’ve decided this is a good move for you.’

@dr-boyfriend

will you intrinsically understand my vision or are you like the rest of them

i like when fiction treats love as a more complicated force and not something that is inherently pure or redemptive. portray it as flawed and complex as any other human impulse. give me love as prejudice, love as possessive stasis, love as addiction, love as blindness, etc.

Admittedly, this would be easier if a core part of my trauma wasn't the belief "I need to completely heal all my trauma before I'm allowed to pursue the things I really want in my personal life".

And this is despite going to therapist school where they explicitly walk you through how none of that works like that, at all, even a little.

The fact that I didn’t even realize this was a spoof after reading the tire of the article is crazy

lol i hate today’s era of absolutely zero nuance takes. a friend didn’t behave exactly as you’d wanted them to? cut them off. a guy didn’t text you back instantly bc he has his own life? he’s just giving you breadcrumbs. doing something makes you uncomfortable? don’t do it anymore. someone isn’t instantly available for you? disinterest. just absolutist statements that often don’t apply to the multilayer situations of everyday life. like. stop. literally just stop it

It's incredible how much pop psychology and therapyspeak boils down to treating individualism as the phenomenological norm for human beings and any form of human communication or relationship based on negotiation, compromise, self-sacrifice and trust as an act of violence against the individual
