A Cellular Longing
A Cellular Longing
Unfocus to see: it is only the inconsistency saying all isn't pulsing in unity
Then, blink into clarity
Solidity is made into illusion Most of what's between, most of what's everything, isn't anything at all What's fundamental is emptiness.
Do you hear the mostly-gaps crying out to be crossed?
Or maybe it's us yearning to traverse
To leave halos in our wake To carve the trails that we take To dust up the little clouds we make
To shed bits of ourselves studded into the vast nothing that they might serve as markers: that there is matter that we are matter that we think we matter that we matter here

I never understood why the Hindi word for brother-in-law, "saalaa", doubles as a casual, not quite swearing insult. I thought maybe it was because there's codified hatred for in-laws in many cultures.
I just figured out a much more plausible theory. The Hindi swear word equivalent for "mother****er" is "bhenchod". Sister-****er.

The first nightmare I've had in a while was about being forced to use fabric softener.
If you assume that I
✅ am a millennial,
✅ am autistic,
✅ am fat, trans, broke, but also vain, and
✅ hear "hello, my name is Renae, and I'm an appliance repair tech" often enough to know it by heart,
you'd be right.
love how so many cultures looked at cabbage and thought like "Let's put this in a well-seasoned, mildly acidic solution along with some other veggies, like carrots and onions, then let some friendly bacteria have its way"

The Ori game creators, probably: By the end of this, you're gonna cry so hard about a traumatized owl.
Me: I did, oh I did.
The Ori game creators: Just wait until you finish this sequel though lmao
The Ori game creators: You're gonna cry twice as hard *at least*.
Me: Oh, because there are two traumatized owls to be devastated about?
The Ori game creators: Well, there are two owls, but.
Me: You mean--
The Ori game creators: (;

Real talk re calling yourself an atheist vs. saying you're agnostic:
If you're willing to have believers preach at you because they think you're open minded and indecisive, say you're agnostic.
If you'd like to skip the preaching and go straight to the anger at you for daring to so shamelessly exist without belief in a deity, say you're an atheist.
Either way, they're going to be mad at you. I prefer to save myself the trouble, personally.
(For the record, I'm technically an agnostic atheist, but that is a concept almost no one gets, so I say one or the other when I'm not in the mood or place for giving a big philosophy lesson.)
