PLANT CRUSH

fuck summer i want it to be dark and misty and frigid and october

the way studio ghibli romanticises being human...

the more outlandish the world, the more human its characters & the story’s thematic concerns are. like instead of feeling like you’ve “escaped” into a world where human affairs no longer matter or become trivial, you actually enter a world where human affairs are all that matter. fantasy & fiction as a vehicle to highlight humanity

there’s also an environmentalist theme underlying all of this, dare i say anti-capitalist – bc the human affairs are always situated squarely in a broader landscape, a broader human (& creaturely) context. there is no sense of that rugged individualism that governs fictional narratives in the west, the world reduced down to a single individual and their exploits. instead, there are simply people, & animals, & other beings that all exist in a web of relations rather than ordered hierarchically

yeah i’m beautiful but where is my mental stability???

Every one: You have to make time for yourself! me: *stays up until 1 am every night crying* Me time 😍💆

They always sit Chris Evans in the front row because they know that man will always offer to help people up the stairs because his momma raised him right.
