I’m calling it now, “I bet you did numbers on twitter” will become a new insult on tumblr.com.
how i be feeling after writing my first fic ever
“I am almost never serious, and I'm always too serious. Too deep, too shalow. Too sensitive, too cold hearted. I'm like a collection of paradoxes.”

I'm not getting any younger over here
yeah, life is cool, but where is my secret lover, who shows up at my house in the middle of the night with several books to read together and analyze, under the sound of raindrops pattering on the window?

POSITIVITY FOR: girls who threaten to kill you in arguments, girls who get angry with such intensity they start crying, girls who scream in pillows, girls who randomly leave social events when agitated

Barbarian: I'm done being careful.
Cleric: You think you've been careful so far?
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. 🇮🇹
