If you enjoyed this book you should read every other book in the world for extra textual context. All things are intricately related to one another.

had a dream that the hot new meme here was a photo of a rat color shifted to be yellow and dark blue and captioned "this is the kind of foolish film that always receives praise and accolades these days"

i think it was kind of a major failing to frame the self diagnosis issue around whether it's "valid" or not rather than the fact that unless an official diagnosis is necessary for you to access actually beneficial pharmaceuticals/treatment, accomodations or disability benefits, you should actively avoid on-paper diagnosis for your basic safety and access to care

I told my girlfriend to think of quitting vaping as training her endurance by seeing how long she can run before she gets tired, then doing it again and hoping to go further next time. She said it really helped her.

here is what i like about the performances of each of the five main actors on riverdale. i like that kj is trying very visibly hard to act and can't quite do it because that is so archie of him. i like that camila delivers all of her lines completely earnestly and without a trace of ironic self-awareness. i like that cole either can't act or is doing an elaborate bit and it's impossible to tell either way which is so juggy of him. i like that lili plays betty like a real person and not a tv character which gets increasingly funny the more outlandish betty's life gets. and i like that madelaine delivers all of her lines as if she is being possessed by the riverdale writers to enact their strange divine vision

We need a sea mine emoji. And one of it exploding. And one of a wretched skeletal hand reaching up from the deep. Searching for an ankle to grab to drag you down below the sunlight. And one of air bubbles escaping your mouth as the water pressure squeezes in and drives the air from your lungs. And one of a mermaid but her boobs are out.
