Me forcing myself to save money and cook instead of eating out

me hitting the submit button on an essay, knowing that it’s nonsensical garbage, to an academic who has dedicated his life to this field

i always thought of a king sized bed as being a bit bigger than a queen, but now that i have one, i can tell you that a king sized bed is an absurdity. i can sprawl out, and my husband can sprawl out, and the cat can sprawl out, and none of us are touching. i reach out in the night, and find only pillows and plush walruses. i reach further and eventually find his elbow. he rolls over the comforters to try and find me. “i have crossed oceans of bed to be with you,” he says. there is a vast expanse of bed untouched, unmapped, unexplored. the cat is still trying to sleep on my face.

what’s the point of blurring out the middle finger on tv like ooooh you have me fooled what’s behind all that blur?  is it an umbrella?  an elephant?  a young bill cosby?

Here’s a hot take: villains should be relatable.

Not every villain, not every time, and certainly not to everyone at once, but there should be moments. We should, occasionally, be able to see ourselves in the bad guys, be able to understand how they got there.

Because it reminds us not to fucking go there.

Antis who get upset about villains having relatable qualities (often couched as being “romanticized” or “woobified”) are people who cannot bear to ever think of themselves as having the capability of being wrong.

Every human alive is capable of being a horrible person. Relatable villains remind us to keep an eye on that shit.

Books!

I have bought so many books over the years that when Amazon recommends me something other than books, I am like "Oh my god why do you even bother?"
