Even funnier when online you can just leave the chat open
Talking to men is so funny you’ll just be like “oh?” And then they talk for 10 minutes
growing up being told you’re mature for your age because you are kind and curious by nature and then being left behind constantly and having your needs neglected because of this assumption of maturity and issues within the family and growing up just with this idea that you are beyond the need for nurturing and attention from adults and you don’t need care because in your mind it’s useless and then having this soul crushing guilt and sense of inadequacy when you inevitably crave this seemingly meaningless care that you really truly need

blegh I hate that fanbases have simplified relationships in ‘shipping’ because I can’t find a lot of good analysis of aglaya and artemy’s relationship that isn’t “do you ship it?”
I have so many complicated feelings about aglaya and artemy and I think they care about each other in their own way, no I don’t think they are good for eachother, yes she loves him even if she’s manipulating him, no she does not love him she’s being manipulated by children, artemy might have a thing for milfs, I can’t call Aglaya’s sudden feelings for Artemy unrealistic because same, Artemy is driven by love for his family while Aglaya hates hers, do they have anything in common other that not liking the polyhedron? it makes no sense and all the sense. They live in an existential nightmare. Are feelings even real?

ethics is important, Nairobi, but aesthetics as well.
The fact that tumblr is my primary social media is proof that I’m far gone
hey (with the intention of smiling in between kisses with you)
reblog this and tag with a food you no longer have access to (closed restaurant, state you moved away from, ex’s mom’s cooking, etc) that will haunt you until your dying day, mine are the spicy chicken sandwich on the employee menu at the fine dining restaurant I was a prep cook at, and the onion bagel from the kosher place down the street from my house when I lived in the city
Absolutely irritated by the way the song "Bella ciao" has been remixed and used multiple times as a base for dumb tiktok dances. I was already irritated enough when I found out that it had been improperly used in the Netflix show La casa de papel, but this is just ridiculous.
It's not just disrespectful, it's also plain stupid. Because I hate to see so many people (rightfully) defending their own culture, calling out all the people who make cultural appropriation and insulting their culture. But as soon as the culture that is being disrespected is not theirs, suddenly it's all "just a joke", "chill", "it's nothing serious".
Well, let me tell you that, it IS serious. This song was sung by Italian partisans during the fascist time in WWII. It's not a happy song, it talks about resistance, about the way young soldiers that wanted nothing but peace were absolutely aware of the fact they were going to die. It's a VERY important piece of Italian history, it's not a song anybody should use to dance.
So please, just STOP using that! It's disrespectful and stupid. I don’t even understand how some people thought it was a good idea to use that song for a tiktok video in the first place. Learn to appreciate and RESPECT other peoples culture.
And don't even get me started on those who romanticise mafia because, oh boy, I have a few things to say. 🇮🇹
