Maybe This Time Picking At Textures On My Skin Will Lead To Being Silky Smooth

- A Psalm for the Wild-Built, Becky Chambers // kagonekoshiro

You ever hear that old chestnut about how most people neglect the part of the story of Icarus where he also had to avoid flying too low, lest the spray of the sea soak his feathers and cause him to fall and drown? You ever think about how different the world would be if Icarus died that way instead? If the idiom was to Fly To Close To The Sea? A warning against playing it far too safe, about not stretching your wings and soaring properly? You ever think about how Icarus died because he was happy?

Love complimenting strangers' outfits. They always smile so hard. It's like, haha I got you, bitch. You've fallen for my manipulations of Making Your Day. Yeah walk away from me all happy. I got your ass

i’m proud of you for facing the days you really don’t want to face

We are in a very mentally unwell period of history, so PLEASE schedule in time to make art and music, bake and cook, read and write, take walks, and things that take prolonged mental and physical effort. We must stay connected to our humanity and the activities that we enjoy that also help our mind and body. Please take breaks from dissociating to your screens.

does anyone know if you can get in trouble for feeling weird

Everyone playing the "what kind of queer is MOST oppressed?" game is wasting their time on pointless bullshit, and, quite frankly, they're doing the feds' work for them.

Stand together or die together. They want to put us all in the same pit.

how’s that house that raised you?
