Don't get me wrong, "The Beauty of the House is immeasurable; its Kindness infinite" is a quote that absolutely hits me square in the chest every time.

..But I feel like putting it in italics under an aesthetic picture is kinda neglecting the context, since Piranesi has Nearly Drowned when he first says that.

last night I remembered that conservapedia exists and in a pique of brainrot I decided to see if they had an article on football. they do. and it's just as brainpoisoned and u.s-centric as you might imagine

the aside about lesbianism is bizarre, unprompted, and entirely unsourced, but that's just the magic of conservapedia

It's when you're pricing commissions that you realise you really do just be making $100 pieces of art on the regular for free.

Hey y’all! Do you have any recommendations for brands of vitamin B12 supplements?  My doctor’s been trying to figure out why I keep having bad muscle spasms and cramps, and a blood test finally showed something as being not normal! Well. Sort of. I’m apparently still in the normal range for B12, but low enough that it could be causing problems? So it’s supplements time, but she didn’t even give me a dosage. I know vitamins can vary wildly in quality and I remember that like third party companies that examine them exist but idk what seals or labels or endorsements I should be looking for

Thinking of the way other kids treated me when I was in school makes me crazy like why'd they do all that 😭

& it wasn't even that bad I have always just been really really sensitive. SAD.

It only got physical a few times too like how long has it been, 6? 7 years? And I'm still hung up on it somehow

It's actually so fucked up how whatever you go through as a child will Literally change you forever, can't I like... scrape those parts off.... and be a normal fucking person for once 😭

Okay correct me if I'm wrong but I'm like a....marginal looker-on of kpop groups and something that I've picked up that utterly fascinates me is the way that these kpop groups focus their songs and music around some sort of concept that has so much story potential in it.

It's like...combining ballads and epic songs with modern pop music and in essence creating the short stories/one-shots in the same world version of those ballads and epics. Like musicals but rather than a cohesive single story, fragments of story ideas, and I kind of really love that....

Somehow I completely missed that there was an acoustic version of this song and I am utterly obsessed with the contrast between this version's vibes and the vibes of both the album version and the EP version.

The tempo is only slightly slower than the other two versions, but it's amazing how much the lack of the drums changes the feel of it. The other two versions (especially the EP version) have that drumbeat like racing hoofbeats under the song, while this has the barest drum presence and instead a plucked guitar and a ripple of piano to provide the overall rhythm.

Without it, the acoustic version is... gentler. It's less frantic - the urgent desperation and longing is still present but has been tempered, and instead there's this poignant sense of grief and loss. Even the vocals are softer; still exquisite as always, still raw with emotion, but less intense.

The lyrics are identical, but the emotion is so difference. The album and EP versions feel like racing after someone at full tilt, desperately begging them to turn back, trying to catch them before they slip out of reach like the wind. This feels like standing in the wake of the storm, everything wrecked and lost around you, and yet you still can't help quietly pleading "come back to me, darlin'".

Obsessed, I tell you.

this goes hand in hand with 'the only way to make io blush is to say romantic shit to them not lewd shit' but their confidence is nearly unshakeable, tbh? they don't bat at an eye about being half nude/nude in front of people. they like to take the lead anyway. and anyone focusing on them is usually met with someone who enjoys making sure their partner knows they appreciate the attention, and isn't shy about saying what does and doesn't work for them. a partner kind of has to work for it to make io start to melt. focusing on their weak spots, overwhelming them, denying them - all of those things will make io start to slip into more of a hazy, lust-driven focus rather than the straight-up confidence they use to lead a sexual encounter.
