As hard and as ruthless as a rose petal

some days are really hard and it can be difficult to understand why. but usually its probably because my blood is haunted

friend described a moby dick opera, complained all the parts were men so it was missing a lot of the usual singing roles and now i cant stop thinking about a moby dick opera where the sea, the ship, the whales, the color white, (maybe the harpoons...?) etc are played by women

are we going to start acknowledging that cancel culture does not work on oppressors and has thus created a system of impossible morality which makes people stagnant and fearful instead of empathetic and productive members of society. and those under the most scrutiny for moral purity are most often the victims of the so called cancelable offense

Depends on the person which one I am on this

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

We all got that one mutual that be going through the most treacherous situations a person could endure and then posting a few minutes later about why such and such should get fucked through a concrete wall.
