you can be a good, considerate person and it won’t necessarily mean being quiet and obedient whenever that’s expected of you. sometimes you’ll find yourself in a situation where you have to speak up to be taken seriously, or a situation where you have to be nasty and rude in order to get someone to get their hands off of you or leave you alone or respect you / your body. you’re allowed to use your voice to protect yourself and you’re allowed to get mad.

please be nice to me, i'm in my twenties. do you know what that does to a person

the older I get the more I realize the value of privacy, of cultivating your circle and only letting certain people in. You can be open, honest, and real while still understanding not everyone deserves a seat at the table of your life.

you may think it’s no big deal but every sweet interaction is actually the most important thing in the world. sooo. take that

We need a counter to “Heartbreaking: the worst person you know just made a good point” that is “Heartbreaking: your favorite person in the world just said the stupidest shit you’ve ever heard.”

anxiety is so weird like why is my mental illness in my stomach
