There’s a lot going on in that little critter’s head right now.

having a resting bitchface is so funny because i'll be doing something relaxing, and really enjoying myself and my face will look like this

Look i straight up need the reference of every single book and quote and lyric in this godforsaken quiz bc i never read such beautiful thoughts. I know most of them have the source in the quiz but if you could make a compilation? Like this is your thesis and I'm asking for the bibliography, like any normal human does after a uquiz. But honestly thank you for creating the quiz it was amazing!

hehe okay friend I’ve spent a couple minutes in a google doc and I’m pretty sure I’ve got all of it now so! Under the cut is that bibliography! This is honestly such a sweet ask and I’m sorry it took me so long to get back to it! I hope you enjoy and I’m so glad you liked the quiz. I honestly got a lot of the quotes from the poems or books I haven't read from @riperain so you should check her out if you’re interested in more!

The majority of my Sleeping at Last quotes come from Atlas Ennanagram but honestly I would recommend checking out the premise for the entirety of the Atlas project, mostly because I just think its basically the coolest fucking concept hehe

In terms of quotes we have:

“Then you hold life like a face between your palms, a plain face, no charming smile, no violet eyes, and you say, yes, I will take you I will love you, again” - Ellen Bass, the Thing Is

“As the image of myself becomes sharper in my brain & more precious, I feel less afraid that someone else will erase me by denying me love.” - Jenny Slate, this tweet

“The world digs a hole in your yard & its up to you to fill it, up to you to find something useful to do with your sadness.” - Hieu Minh Nguyen, Outbound

“I wanted to hurt you but the victory was that I couldn’t stomach it.” - Richard Siken, Snow and Dirty Rain

“‘I thought you had been scared off’ 'You were right. I am scared. Do all lovers feel they’re inventing something? I know the gestures. I imagined it all, waiting for you.’ 'You dreamt of me?’ 'No, I thought of you’” Portrait of a Lady on Fire 

“The truth is this: My love for you is the only empire I will ever build. When it falls, as all empires do, my career in empire building will be over” Mindy Nettifee, This is The Nonsense of Love

“Should we go into it together / If I go into it with you I will never come out” (Margaret Atwood, from power politics: poems)

The books on my shelf I reference by title only are I Hear God Laughing a collection of poems by Hafez translated by Daniel Ladinsky, The Story Cure by Ella Berthoud and Susan Elderkin, How to Be a Good Creature by Sy Montgomery, Mister Miracle (my personal favorite comic) written by Tom King Illustrated by Mitch Gerads, On Earth We're Briefly Gorgeous by Ocean Vuong, All The Lives We Ever Lived by Katharine Smyth, and Stranger in A Strange Land by Robert A. Heinlein. I haven’t actually read Creature, Stranger, and All The Lives, but all the others I would definietly recommend (although perhaps look up content warnings first).

The Bo Burnham lyrics are from Art is Dead, Left Brain Right Brain, Can’t Handle This/Kanye Rant, A Song From The Perspective of God, and Are You Happy.

The playlist of the songs referenced can be listened to here (with a few fun others!) 

And then, other than referencing the song Hannah by Freelance Whales and Robert Frost’s The Road Not Taken (and obviously Harry Potter haha) all other writing is originally mine! I hope that helps and again its literally so sweet of you to ask and I’m so glad the quiz could connect with you! Have a wonderful day anon, and an even better one tomorrow c:

Remember this viral post? Wanda and Jamal and her husband Lonnie are the most wholesome people, this story brought tears to my eyes originally and I am crying once more learning from Jamal's social media that Lonnie has sadly passed away.

Rest in Peace, Lonnie :(

a fun fact that people may not know about me is that i’m regular about media. i’m so normal about things i enjoy. i never ever get weird or obsessive about them and I consume and enjoy them completely normally. also im a fucking liar
