Guys I’m so cool I got hate and I didn’t engage

[deniigi]

so wild that writing a gazillion words of fanfiction over multiple years makes you better at writing.

trying to feel proud of myself as my brain attempts to get me to spiral for the fourth time like bitch it's not that serious let's unlearn fear

The urge to only color these character’s eyes is always so… SO strong dude. Like, you’d all know who it was as long as the eye color is there, ya know?

[volublelemur]

just know realizing it is probably a good thing I stopped crushing bread into a ball to eat it and now have like buttered toast with honey instead

I love when I am in this state, and I am present and I feel hopeful and I feel the clarity and just love myself and my life ✨

[rens-room]

clarity really is the most brutal of muses

This is one of the most profound lessons I have learnt in my life. Comfort doesn't guarantee happiness, and sometimes you have to take that free fall to get where you need to be.

No single line has ever wrecked me as hard as this one from the Good Place and I think about it constantly

The sun's coming back again (stick around, it's positive in the end)

Creeping slowly towards the first days of spring, trees have already started to blossom, flowers have begun to sprout, even between the cracks of concrete. I often dread summer. The intense heat. The blazing sun. Being as pale and unable to tan as I am, it can be quite dangerous. On top of that, my body is something I am not always proud of, but I'm working on my mindset and my health. But, I think it's silly to dread it. Today I lay on the patio, my dog napping beside me. The sun trickled down on us as I read over my study materials and it didn't seem so bad. Ants crawled over my laptop screen and over my bare, prickly legs, reflecting the sunlight back off into the sky. As my dog sighed softly, his hairy belly moving up and down, I knew it would be okay. It doesn't matter how I look, I can still enjoy the sun and the plants. The trees stretching up closer and closer to the heavens with each passing day. It will be okay. I will be okay.

you know what, fuck joe biden. fuck joe biden. i am so deeply enraged tonight. thousands of palestinians have been murdered in a genocide funded by US tax dollars, and his administration thinks it's a good time to post memes?? most young people i know are living paycheck to paycheck (or debt to debt), and they think they can appeal to us by posting goddamn memes? at least one hundred people were killed in rafah due to an israeli air strike during the superbowl, and biden posts a dark brandon meme? what the absolute fuck? over twelve thousand children have been murdered in cold blood by the israeli military, funded by the united states, funded by my goddamn taxes, and biden tweets about seats on airplanes? i can't afford to buy meat, but thank god part of my paycheck is being spent on bombing children. i am ashamed i voted for him. if i ever met the man, i would spit on him. i would throw both my shoes at him. i am disgusted and angry. god fucking damnit

Thinking about the time I lost a game of Overwatch and I was so mad about it that I genuinely considered getting into shit with the other team in chat and then realized that it was a colossal waste of my living breathing Human Time and uninstalled Overwatch instead because it was only making me angry.

And then thought about the OTHER time when I was on TikTok and realized I was Not Enjoying Myself and was, in fact, seeing so many sad videos and fake influencer ads that I felt Truly Despondent and then just…Deleted it.

Imo I want my social media /general media experience to be a pleasant break from real world and I get to decide what I get to cull to make that a reality for myself. I highly reccomended it! Life has improved considerably!
