and icarus said to aphrodite- so this is what i'm for. you have a distant awareness that the day you fall is the day you change. change is so very difficult, isn't it? watching everyone leave? you want the light so desperately, but you fear it. one day it will come for you. one day you will stop mourning the future and start mourning the present, and it will be peaceful.
take my quiz if you want to feel sad about yourself
there are ten results, all colours, and no pop culture questions whatsoever.
When I can’t go to sleep because I’m thinking of things I need to do and my anxiety is too loud, I just tell myself that either I get up now and do something about it or I stop worrying about it. About 80% of the time, it works to help me fall asleep.
There was a girl sitting on the bench
Her hair fell into her face
And covered her eyes
everyone who sat next to her asked her why
Why she let her hair mask her beauty
She answered simply
“You would drown in my eyes”
They laughed and asked her to show her face
“no” she replied every time
They taunted her, and grabbed her hair
She had long since stopped trying to stop them
When her eyes were uncovered
They stopped laughing
Her eyes held oceans beyond comprehension
Her left held a furious image
of the waters revolting
Her right held a serene scene
of the waters relaxing
They all ran before they drowned in her eyes
I watched this happen time after time
One day I sat beside her
I did not ask her to move her hair
“Why are you silent”
“I only want company”
I sat next to her everyday
We spoke of many things
But I never asked her to move her hair
And she never asked me to move mine
I sat beside her, but she looked different
Her hair was pulled back
“You won’t drown. I won’t let you”
All I did was move my own hair back
And let my night skies mix with her oceans
America tends to not care about collectives of people. Like, a lot of people were antivax because they didn’t care enough about others, but in other countries that put families, groups, and others first that wouldn’t fly. You’d have a duty to get vaccinated to protect others whether you care about protecting yourself or not.
Which actually explains a lot of strict lawn practices in neighborhoods and stuff. Suddenly the decision of others affects YOUR property value (even if that is stupid and silly and most people love seeing gardens). So there’s strict rules so that no one being individualistic can affect you cause the USA doesn’t care about groups of people.
That’s rambly but maybe it makes sense. I’m sure there’s a better way to put it. But strict HOAs and city ordinances protect the collective from individuals in a country that doesn’t have a culture of caring for the collective. It’s for stupid reasons and all. A garden doesn’t hurt anything and actually helps but remember this is a country that has awful pollen (I literally live in a place nicknamed the pollen capital of the world though it isn’t on the list for 2022. Yeaaaa) because they only planted male trees (of species that have male/female categories) because city planners didn’t want fruit/nuts everywhere on the sidewalk.
not to sound crazy or anything but the fact that HOA's and city ordinances about how you can manage your garden and yard exist is so insane to me. you're supposed to spend your life doing thankless back breaking work so you can own a house with a yard—which you are forced to manage to an exacting, generic, hostile aesthetic appearance according to others preferences, even if it makes the space useless to you?
You can't even have a vegetable garden. or plant a tree. or plant fucking flowers. in YOUR OWN YARD that you paid for and own? this is the american dream?
He had failed and now his bones would turn to ash. It wasn’t supposed to be a simple mission, but he figured it was more likely he’d get a sword in the gut or fried by some electricity than burned by the dragon he tried to save.
The Rafel Alliance was a stunning beacon of justice. If your definition of justice was black and white. Even the Mor Actin Spire had a more nuanced definition of justice and they were a dictatorship. Still, dragon fire for a drunken revelry was a bit much. He probably should have stayed low after the mission. Probably shouldn’t have gotten drunk out of excitement of not having a sword in the gut, but he did. One fistfight later, and he’s thrown in jail. A week after, death by dragon flames.
Obviously he’d failed the mission. He administered the antidote to the Alliance’s chemical control of the dragon, but they all knew it might not work. Which was why he stayed in town. He got drunk, because getting in and out of the central prison and dragon grounds was a feat worthy of a legendary thief.
Which he one hundred percent wasn’t. Now, he wasn’t a bad thief, but he was more of an undercover operative than a stealth operative. So making it out with all his organs was a better result than expected. Again, why he got drunk.
The first prisoner was up, and the charges were read. The man had stolen some food and was charged with the sin of gluttony. Funny considering, the man didn’t look like he had a good meal in years. Hard to be gluttonous without stuff, but that’s how the alliance works. You get charged with a sin and you burn in dragon fire.
For his part, the man bravely faced the maw of the dragon. It was over before the smell could even fill the ground. Where the man had been was a pile of ashes already dispersing in the wind. The sentencer grinned and began reading the next sentence.
It continued. A sin of pride for illegally preaching. Raging heat encompassed the grounds. Refusing to pay rent, sin of sloth. The ash pile grew. Envious enough to burn a building. Burning flesh filled his nostrils. Greed, sloth, wrath, greed, pride, lust, lust. On and on. The ash pile rose even with the wind dispersing it. Finally it was his turn.
“Fineal Taygen, you are sentenced with the sin of wrath for assaulting innocents. Your punishment is death by dragon fire.”
Fineal was tossed onto the ash pile by the guards. In front of him was the magnificent animal reduced to a slave. The dragon’s eyes devoid of the intelligence they should have. He failed. The antidote didn’t work, and now he wouldn’t have a chance to try again. Hopefully when the dragon was awoken, they would know that he did not blame them.
He prayed for the dragon’s freedom, and for his friends’s safety before staring at the dragon’s eyes. If he was to die, he’d face it with courage. Yet as he stared into the dragon’s eyes, they stared back. He almost stepped back in shock. The dragon was waiting. All the others had been immediately incinerated, but the dragon hadn’t burned him yet. Slowly he stepped closer. The dragon just watched him. He took another step, and his nose was touching the dragon.
The dragon finally opened their mouth and he realized this was his end. Even though he wanted to have courage, he found himself unconsciously wincing for the pain that was coming. It wasn’t until he felt a warm tongue that he knew he hadn’t failed. Fineal had succeeded in his mission.
You’re a prisoner in a fantasy world. After a week in jail for (YOUR CHOICE), your true punishment has come. Death by the Dragon’s flame. One by one, you watch men be scorched. It is finally your turn. The dragon reaches its head down, but instead of death, you get a warm lick on the forehead.

If peaceful protests were banned then we would be heading to a point were revolution is necessary quickly. I might be too pedantic about what I mean by rioting. I really mean rioting as more breaking into stores and homes, lighting stuff on fire without concern for safety, involving people who don’t want the be involved (not police or lawmakers or people in those positions of power. Like the random person who was walking down the street at the time). I’ve always been a bit specific about words (like ramifications and consequences don’t mean the same thing). So that’s why I said the Jan 6 RIOT and the George Floyd RIOT. To me the riots are different than the protests and perpetrated by a different group of ideas and often members or nonmembers with more extremist views. Most people won’t riot.
I can see what you mean though about my language suggesting that rioting and anything associated with rioting is bad so maybe the logical step is to ban protests. It’s not something I would have picked up myself so thank you for pointing it out.
I wonder how the prevalence of revolution stories in our (United States) literature and media (hunger games, divergent, etc.) has introduced the idea that revolution is the first thing to do when a system is broken. How has that idea convinced people that rioting may be the correct thing to do (Capitol riot, George Floyd riots, etc.)?
If you are scared to listen to a viewpoint, because it might change your mind, you need to reevaluate your own viewpoint.
This world has a lot of awful stuff and if someone holding a stuffed animal helps them cope, let them hold a stuffed animal. It doesn’t matter how old they are or what gender they are.
