sometimes u just gotta say “okey dokey” and just like.. rely on urself.. take things as impersonally as u can.. love and let go.. move on.. try and find all the good things, soak those in. and that’s all u can do! and sometimes, that’s enough
I literally do not care what the Bible says about any political issue. I am not Christian. Christian scripture should have zero effect on my life or my personal freedoms.

crying over this
there's a recent vox video about how tiktok contributes to what kind of music is being demanded and put forward on spotify and i think it's also parallel to how booktok is directly influencing the decisions of big publishing companies. they will continue to churn out terrible romance novels that were previously fanfics if that's what would continue to circulate. it's so tiring
instead of actively promoting and advocating for marginalised authors, esp working class authors & authors of colour, in all genres, and hiring more diversely, they’re spotlighting reylo fanfic and the next boring historical or mythological retelling by a white woman. and ppl have the gall to act like it’s not a big deal. (** white) fandom nerds and tiktokers literally have a dominating cultural influence now just based on sheer numbers alone and they want to act like they’re being persecuted for lining the pockets of execs and making it everyone else’s problem
Pansexuality is when you're attracted to multiple genders and feel the label "pan" best describes your experience
Bisexuality is when you're attracted to multiple genders and feel the label "bi" best describes your experience
No sexuality is inherently more progressive and bi vs pan infighting only serves to distract from the real enemy: multi level marketing schemes

You’ll read a classic and it’ll be 3 pages of pure dialogue but it’s just one dude going on and on in paragraphs about one minuscule detail
Fyodor Dostoevsky, Crime and Punishment
I really enjoy the genre of “older literature featuring a really smart but deranged college student who does something really fucked up with his knowledge and has multiple breakdowns over it for the rest of the story.” one because it is entertaining and two it encapsulates the college experience in a way nothing else does.
Bitches be like “the way this book radiates comfort 🥺🥺🥺☺️☺️☺️” and then it turns out the book in question is a novel written by Dostoevsky
the line “your worst sin is that you’ve betrayed and destroyed yourself for nothing” is so raw you’d think it’s from a destiel fanfic or even hetalia but it’s actually from dostoyevskys crime and punishment

they lassoed the moon, did you hear? yeah they brought it down last night and she got so close the water that the tides shot into the supermarkets
yeah my grandma had to pick out her radishes from waist-high ocean she said that the pasta was too close the ground so it was all floating
they're holding the moon halfway now so it's really beautifully bright you can see all the rich men running up and down the tether wearing bandanas to raise money for some charity they started
yeah no i think they're going to keep it there haha, yeah like as a resort somebody said something on the news about turning her face green with little chopped golf grass how about that; we will have a different moon in our memory than in the future , imagine asking were you born before the moon was green haha
last night yeah if you went outside to watch the balloon of her astral body bobbing in our atmosphere all that white particulate coming down like plaster drifting snow in moonrocks over our upturned cheeks
the moon, chafing, unable to rest in peace
Your worst sin is that you have destroyed and betrayed yourself for nothing.

Happy pride month to the tiny cowboy and tiny Trojan man from Night at the Museum
The goldfinch only becomes more heart breaking in hindsight. You read within the first five pages that no one ever made Theo feel loved like his mother did, and it’s sad because “aw he has no good people in his life who love him” but then you read the book and see Mrs Barbour who loves Theo as one of her own, who slowly gets better, who comes back to life just from being NEAR Theo. And Hobie who teaches him everything he knows, who is always there for him even when Theo turns his back on him, who after everything forgives Theo without a second thought. And of course Boris. Boris who holds him through nightmares, who sings him songs about little kittens, who kisses his own blood off his knuckles. And you realise the tragedy isn’t that nobody loved him, it’s that Theo hated himself too much to see their love.
Reading the goldfinch and getting to post Vegas arc is like “oh finally we can take a break from all that sad repressed homosexuality shit” and then you turn the next page and Theo can’t find anything attractive about Pippa other then she laughs like Boris, then you turn the next page and Theo is feeling guilt and shame and horror at himself and his filth for no good reason he can identify, then you turn the next page and he meets Francis Abernathy, then you turn the next page and he refuses to tell you if Hobie was with Welty, then you turn the next page and he’s marrying Kitsey to make his mother figure happy, then you turn the next page and repeatedly mentions that gay men make up one of the biggest parts of his clientele (and the art community in general), then you turn the page and he calls a waiter a male model for no reason, then you turn the page and he’s being touchy AGAIN abt ppl assuming he’s gay, then u turn the page and he’s describing how Boris grew up to be handsome and oh shit we’re back to a Boris arc again but we never rlly did leave the repressed homosexuality behind did we??
