it's only for the brave

It’s so crazy that someone you love dying just turns into one humiliation ritual after another. Constantly explaining to people that they died. Filling out endless paperwork for years after. Phone call after phone call to organize what to do with the body and funeral arrangements. God forbid they died suddenly or didn’t have an ironclad will or it turns into even more of a bureaucratic nightmare. On top of it all, everything associated with dying is the most expensive things on planet earth. And through it all, if the grief doesn’t feel constantly suffocating, it creeps up on you at the worst moments until you’re pulled over on the side of the road, crying. And you’re expected to be back to normal a week later.

Whoever in the comments said “when people die we act like it both didn’t happen and it’s the family’s fault” yeah that sums it up

They want you to think it's Thursday today

cancel me if this is morbid or whatever but it’s kinda fun to toy with the idea of cas like. actually killing dean during sex. maybe he’s choking him and getting carried away and then dean dies. and cas revives him of course and it freaks him out but dean is like easily top 5 ways i’ve died, you’re welcome to do it again i don’t really care

I truly believe if you don't understand why a person ought to feel at best humiliated for joining the US military, you are ill-equipped to talk about any political matters outside of the country and most matters within as well

My one boring tip to anyone in their 20s is to resist the temptation to rot in your room every time you get a free moment. Dismiss any neuroses you have about going outside and "being perceived". Be a dictator about it, plan your hangouts like they are binding commitments. No excuses! Go to the bar with your friends. Be kinda hungover at work. Socializing is like exercise; even if you don't feel like you want to, you should still do it because it's good for you.

i have been noticing recently that people younger than me are too sensitive, while people older than me are not sensitive enough. which, if i'm correct, should be taken as a sign that the total reality penetration vortex is operating as intended -- within as few as five or six generations we may very well be producing babies who can directly perceive the wound at the heart of the world
