Not actually a squid

this uquiz fucked me up. take it and tell me what you got, please. i got eurydice.

been trying to let go of some of the hate in my heart but it’s load-bearing haterism at this point

Our daily moral panic about muh birth rates becomes so much darker when you learn how much of it is the sharp decrease in teen pregnancy

Damn, that's useful

Finally a hand sewing tutorial on a hemline that isn't just the ladder stitch! the ladder stitch disappears when you tighten it, but it's not meant for hemlines because it breaks really easily! The overlock stitch is more stable, so it holds much longer, and it won't pucker or warp the fabric!

OH HELL THE FUCK YES

I’ll let it go when I stop thinking about it, I’ll stop thinking about it when I stop picking at the scab.When I don’t scratch this itch. When I turn down the next drink offered. When my impulse rests and lets go of me. When it isn’t easier to be this way.

I think I’ve always felt broken so I won’t feel like I’m myself if I’m fixed

maybe orpheus always looks back because his very effort to reverse death means that he can't look forward. if he could look forward, he could accept eurydice's death, grieve, and keep moving in life. his refusal to accept her death is looking back. his going down to the underworld, asking hades and persephone for her life, trying to lead her out... it's all 'looking back'. he does nothing for the entire story except look back. orpheus! looks! back! it's his entire thing! the story ends the same way it begins: orpheus looked back.

AUGHHHHHH

affirmations they will not kill me at work today. it is not in my job description to get killed. if they did kill me at work that would be weird and probably not worth it for them
