the need for glasses grows ever apparent :/
stop complaining about the professor because YOU cant walk far and YOU are hungry. YOU are only here cause you wanted an excuse to party in a place you have romanticized preconceived notions about, so shut up. youre a loser, i came here to learn. partying is great, i love partying, but if it is your sole reason for going to a new place, you have some serious rethinking to do.

been making a notes app while i’m high so i can make a compilation of all my most beautiful thoughts but the most striking of them all is why the fuck aren’t there any obelisks on my campus but we have a giant cylinder that seemingly has no purpose
as of today i was able to order food and answer questions about my order without using english or having to hesitate. i have literally not felt this accomplished or rewarded about something in years.
she and i both leave each other again and again knowing full well we are very likely going to see and do things with other people. said people and experiences occupy her mind as well as mine. does this mean we are just that confident in our paths crossing once more, or that we simply dont care that much about each other? havent figured this out. maybe both.
sometimes i wish i was cat or a raccoon, they probably dont worry about this sort of thing. or maybe a toucan, i think i would make a good toucan.

i have never deigned to enter gender identity discourse with other non binary people due to how fucking annoying it is but i do have things to say…
this is the correct app, no?
Both kinds of Bioware girls got a lot of rep at the 2024 VMAs
unlike instagram this is not burdened by watchful eyes and my second guesses of “i want to post this, but dont want X or Y to see it”

I love eating women out but I don't like the feeling of hair in my mouth. I actually like a bit of hair, just not in my mouth. Any ideas?
Grow up
caorline polachek in boston airport and im like wow the old guy behind me has never heard this before and i get to witness his life actively being changed
you guys are so annoying. why do i have to see discourse every year that's like "was tolkien really a woke king or was he your conservative uncle?" the guy was a devout catholic and a genteel misogynist who maintained lifelong friendships with queer people and women, and this isn't even paradoxical because that was part of the upper-class oxford culture he was immersed in. tolkien told the nazis to fuck off (and in doing so demonstrated a real understanding of what racism is and why it's harmful, beyond simply "these guys are bad news because they're who my country is at war with right now") but his inner life was marked by internalized racism that is deeply and inextricably woven into the art that he made. he foolishly described himself as an anarcho-monarchist, and it's kind of crazy to see people on this website passionately arguing that he likely never meaningfully engaged with anarchist theory, because...yeah, no shit, of course he didn't. tolkien didn't have to engage with most sociopolitical theory because as an upper-class englishman of his position, he was never affected by any of the issues that this theory is concerned with. what is plainly obvious from reading both his fiction and letters is that tolkien's ideal political system was that the divinely ordained god-king would rise up and rule in perfect justice and humility; he didn't want a government, he wanted a king arthur, even though (obviously) he was aware that outcome was impossible. why is it so hard for people to accept that he was just some guy! his letters aren't a code you have to crack. no amount of arguing or tumblr-level analysis is going to one day reveal a rhetorically airtight internally consistent worldview spanning jrrt's fiction, academic work, and personal writings, thereby "solving" the question of whether he was a woke king or your conservative uncle. his ideology was extremely inconsistent because, at the end of the day, he was just some guy.
