Sometimes little pleasures in life are loadbearing. Whenever someone is like "If you'd just give up tea and coffee and sugar and--" im like I'll stop you right there. Because if you finish that sentence i am going to kill everyone in this building and then myself. If i have to face the horrors of the world without my little jar of caramel flavoured instant coffee i am going to go full American Psycho. Believe it or not, my main priority in life is not to have perfect teeth or be an Olympic athlete or look like a supermodel, but to actually enjoy living, because I spent far too long not doing that and it royally sucked. And boy, some people don't like hearing that. Particularly dentists

Me: I don't get it. I thought I was doing a lot better than I was a few years ago. I'm like 10 times more on top of things than I used to be. How does everything feel terrible now?

The Tiny Me in OSHA-approved Hi-Vis Gear Who lives in my brain and pulls all the levers: Boss, it's the fascism. You're completely gunked up with cortisol due to the fact that your entire daily life is now underscored with a haunting awareness of the rapid erosion of your rights, dignity, and any and all social safety nets, and you're also bearing witness to the most vulnerable people immediately being persecuted. This creates a natural stress response that basically means you're going to continue having memory and organizational problems, as well as emotional imbalances.

Me: BUT I HAVE A BULLET JOURNAL AND I MEDITATE NOW.

Tiny OSHA Me: BOSS, THE FASCISM.

sometimes having a favourite character is wanting them to be safe and happy but sometimes having a favourite character is wanting to make them cry so idk man duality or whatever

also if you've had a near death experience, feel free to add to this post about how that changed or reaffirmed your relationship with death!

No YOU may be in the fandom trenches, but in my corner of the fandom there's a cafe where we all leave messages for each other to show our mutuals love and appreciation.

I know that realistically you can only fit so many movies into a list of approximately 100, but I cannot take that "How many of tumblr's favorite movies have you seen?" list that's been going around seriously because there are some truly egregious omissions.

Some of it is very clearly recency bias, which makes me wonder if the op truly wasn't on here in 2013 or so, but you're telling me you made a list of "tumblr's favorite movies" that doesn't include Pacific Rim or Mad Max: Fury Road? Because, like, I was there, Gandalf.

i haven't watched a single episode of severance and while it does pique my curiosity at this point i think it's way more interesting and funny to learn everything i know about it via tumblr osmosis

[bladesongs]

it's funny the way i can agree with people on things but then I'll go and do the complete opposite out of spite if they're even a little mean or judgey about it. i am a very spiteful creature and am naturally a contrarian if i detect even a LITTLE bit of u being mean about smth

Wholesome baby

I'm glad that people are still having fun on tumblr even after we found out about the frightening ghoul that reblogs posts but doesn't say anything

Today in phrases I expect to retain: “rotten architecture but wonderful gargoyles” (George Orwell criticizing Dickens’ overarching plots while praising his scene-by-scene writing and eye for detail).
