it is impossible to watch a movie. every night i think i want to watch a movie. no movie gets watched. because it's not possible

and yet they keep making movies with the hopes that one day humanity will discover a way to watch them. it's so inspiring

"it's just stress" oh thank god, it's just the silent killer that slowly kills you, perfectly harmless, no need to worry

[looking at people younger than me] you have your whole life ahead of you [looking at people older than me] you have your whole life ahead of you [looking at myself] its over

billie and issa 100% have dead wife montage clips of each other saved for whoever dies first (or for if one of them gets abducted as a younger woman) (issa is the one that always brings up that possibility) (billie has listened to the you’re wrong about podcast so she isn’t nearly as worried about it) (unless she sees someone sketchy of course because yes she knows the Facts but shes also an anxious gal sue her)

For everyone who ‘used to love reading’ but now hasn’t finished a book in years, you CAN get it back. Genuinely start bringing a book (preferably short and either fiction or a non fiction topic you already really enjoy) everywhere you go and when you have 5-20 mins waiting for the bus or at the doctors office or mechanic or whatever, get out your book and read it! You don’t have to finish it quickly or even read it often but it is so good for your brain and fun to get into the habit of reading more (and replacing being on your phone for those moments).

too much yearning. not good.

i think markhelly is cute but at the same time it's like. some guy in the office likes the only girl in the department. and the guy is like two-years old and the girl has lived a few weeks. their whole relationship is very complicated and interesting especially in correlation with lumon and how differently romantic and platonic relationships inside the company grow and blossom. but soulmates? peak romantisicm? i don't want to downgrade their relationship at all i just see them more as two restrained people who gradually learn how to be free, how to be reckless, even if there are consequences and even if there is no point for them to try and be together but they will do it anyway just for the extra time with each other. and that is the expression of their humanity, at its purest form

real yearners miss shit that never even happened

thought that we escaped eurovision this year, but i still see everyone posting about it... why is it so hard not to hype a competition that lets a genocidal state to participate in it?
