untie yourself

I knew It was over for me once I realized I could escape situations by thinking of fictional gay sex

I live my life my way!!!! WAHOOOOOOO

your life is not an optimization problem

as in you'll never achieve the perfect daily routine, sleep schedule, coping mechanisms, mannerisms, fashion sense etc. even after years and years of healing and improvement and self-discovery. you will never be so good at life that you manage to utilize every waking moment. its great to be productive and all but sometimes you'll suck ass. sometimes you'll take eight hours to be done with a twenty minute job. you'll prioritize the wrong thing. you'll sleep for 12 hrs just to avoid being awake. you'll relapse. and you'll relapse again. you'll forget to turn in the assignment. you'll order too little food. life is far too large and complex for you to even experience it completely, much less try to make sense of and control it. you can't. please give up on that and be at peace with the hours you lose. they are not separate from your life.

affirmation: I am capable of finishing the works of pornographic fanfiction I start writing

and not to sound like a conspiracy theorist but another reason I hate the return of 2000’s th*nspo shit is bc starving does make women frail and has longer term consequences like early osteoporosis, brittle bones/teeth, insomnia, ect. Your muscles will start eating themselves. It also makes you extremely emotional and severely lowers your capacity for critical thinking not bc you’re a girl but because your brain isn’t getting any fucking nutrients so idk I just feel like its very convenient that every time there’s an uptick in fascist rhetoric and women’s rights are being stripped suddenly it’s peak fashion for women to be starving, weak, and exhausted

Your misbehaving boyfriend is not funny to me

*looking at the OC I crafted with my own hands* what the actual hell is her problem

Tali’s story + the quarians’ story and world building are probably my favorite in mass effect so far. i would love a protagonist set in that type of world. being run out of your homeworld and being forced to experience everything through the filter of a suit, never experience the environment you were born to, constantly migrate and scrounge what you can from the rest of the galaxy’s leftovers… and of course one of the main political issues would be whether to find a new world, or fight a war to take back the old one that has a HIGH chance of finishing off your entire species. and technically most of the population has never even experienced their “home” in the first place, which must complicate things the further removed each generation becomes from the memories of the home planet. and facing the harrowing thought of colonizing a new world and fitting it to who your people are now (not who they were).. ugh it’s so good

I don't understand husbands who dgaf abt their wife's interests. you should be getting hard every time she nerds out, no exceptions

aftercare for posting on ao3
