If I am burning, then I put myself out, I’m so completely full, I scare the world all inside out 😂🔥🐢 #sgraffito #ceramic #ceramics #turtle #haroldandjoe #thecure #gothturtle #thecureturtle #flamingturtle #pottery #coffeemug #turtlemug #coffee #wip https://www.instagram.com/p/BnMINNzgHfU/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=tv1i8obhq707

The pain ebbs and flows like a cold spring stream Sometimes feeling alone Rarely feeling nothing All it takes is some love that begs to be shown Someone who understands What the feelings all mean Know that they'll have your back And wipe your heart clean

So uhhh hope I'm doing this right. New to tumblr hope this formats well. Anyway this isn't a vent into the void, it's a ramble into the void. As a straight white dude (can anyone say priveledge?) I've had the pleasure of learning about the LGBT from a beautiful friend. But the other day I realized all my friends are queer, and it's awesome. So I decided next term I'm taking a class on sexuality and youth and identity or whatever. Anyway it's really cool to learn about a community I would have otherwise had no real information on (except for two relatives who are lesbian and married which is cool). And I'd probably be up to dating someone who is queer - it's all about connection anyway, am I rite? All this introspection is thanks to realizing I was chasing my tail about this one girl and a relationship with her. Idealizing her and wanting something to happen. But I deserve someone who is excitable and talkative as I am, maybe even as effusive. I don't expect that from friends (my closest friend talks about 1/4 as much as me) but if I'm involved I need certain things. I'm finally beginning to learn what it really means to not settle. Not even sure why I wrote this except to collect my thoughts, but I hope you all like the photo I took today :) Thanks Lightroom and plugins!

HOLY SHIT YOU'RE NUMBER 400 WELCOME TO THE LOONY BIN, GRAB SHELL DUDE!
