A state of being that fails to create new experiences or opportunities. Normal doesn’t have the capability to change the world. Normality is the absence of variations which create interest.
Anti anxiety.
I am jealous of those who think more deeply, who write better, who draw better, who ski better, who look better, who live better, who love better than I.

Who has not asked himself at some time or other: am I a monster or is this what it means to be a person?

tom is honestly so adorable
I have no idea what we did, but the Travelers fandom has been blessed with the most amazing male characters. David, Trevor, and Philip are such wonderful people, the amount of generosity, care and kindness the have for others melts my heart and brings me to tears. Each and every episode further proves how awesome they are and it is a wonderful thing to see on a TV show.
And the ladies are such badasses and so smart and skillful, they floor me, especially Carly.
Going in, I didn’t think this show was anything special, but boy, was I wrong! I’m so glad I gave it a chance. I honestly hope it will get renewed for S3

Luther: “I have hair on my shoulders now. I don’t even have a joke for that, that’s how much I hate that shit.”
Diego: “Who’s that? Who are you? Whats that? What’s that over there? Don’t do that!”
Allison: “Get the fuck out of here with your technicalities. Just ’cause you’re accurate does not mean you’re interesting.”
Klaus: “I started when I was 13 years old because I stole 2 cigarettes from my older sister and I hid them in a shoebox under my bed with a copy of Cosmopolitan magazine.”
Number Five: “One black coffee”
Ben: “Just too anxious for a lot of things, I get nervous all the time, not even about like major life things, just about like everyday situations.”
Vanya: “My friend was telling me that his dad used to beat him with a belt and that’s just the setup to my story, so… forget about that poor son of a bitch”
It’s difficult to explain your obessions right?
It’s difficult to explain why you get tired after just 2-3 hours of socializing right?
It’s difficult to explain why making decisions takes so long right?
It’s difficult to explain your sensitivities, the noise around you, people walking by, the light, the jokes that make you feel uncomfortable?
It’s difficult to explain why your overthinking is actually just you thinking right?
It’s difficult to explain your needs and wants to your friends, or your parents saying that they shouldn’t click their pen, shake their leg, shouldn’t be too close right?
It’s difficult to explain why you can’t relax and stop obsessing analysing people right?
It’s difficult to explain your wordfinding difficulties or the reason why you’re talking too fast right?
It’s difficult estimating if you’re friends or not, if you’re friends enough to go up and talk to someone right?
It’s difficult not to obsess about something you like and then after a few months find another obsession wondering if you will ever find your calling right?
It’s difficult to explain why you feel so down and tired and keep focusing on the negatives even after a pretty good day, your obsessive mind keeps reminding you of the little details people dont even remember you doing or saying it right?
It’s difficult to be in this world where ‘’other’’ people seems to know it all, seems to have it all. Nice group of friends, amazing socialising skills where it seems so easy to come up with new stuff to talk about right?
With or without the diagnosis you know you best. it doesn’t make your problems less real with no diagnosis.
Ace / Aro visibility in Bojack Horseman! It’s great to not only see an ace main character in the show, but an entire ace community filled with people with different ace experiences. I like how the writers included a scene that explained some of the nuances of asexuality / aromanticism, as it helps break the stereotype that no ace would ever want to enter a relationship. One thing I would comment on is that asexual means “not experiencing sexual attraction” over “not interested in sex.” It’s possible to be a sex-positive asexual!
