like fully about to enter a depressive episode because of a BOOK. men used to go to war.
what is it with me and purposely revisiting media that has triggered me genuinely an insane evolution quirk
There'll be a moment when you realise you're 27 when yesterday you were just 17; and you wouldn't be able to tell how a decade passed away and your life got divided into before and afters. The fury of youth will subdue and nothing will really change but everything will feel different when you look at old photographs and blurry videos taken on cheap mobile phones. Scents will remind you of childhood and certain friends you don't talk to anymore, hangouts will become reunions and mom's burnt pie will become the best food you ever had. And I know on some days you won't be able to show anything of those 10 years but I hope you remember to breathe, and let go of the knot in your chest. I hope you go out in the sun and live a little, because tomorrow is 37.

no more marvel. no more booktok books with the same cover. no more poetry collections that are written solely for the quotes to circulate online. no more songs written with the intention of going viral. please iβm begging.
okay so i finished checking if we were friends in every universe and, uh, it turns out we're only friends in 6 of them. but look, i need you to understand these universes vary like crazy, okay? like 6 is actually insanely high, like way higher than most. and one of those is the universe where i accidentally killed the actor who played Dipsy from Teletubbies when i was 7 and my life went completely differently as a result. and we still ended up friends! also you were a girl in that universe for some reason. what? oh, uh, yeah, you were cute as hell. like really cute. did you just fucking giggle
i'm a simple girl: i see sunlight on the water, i find god
Sometimes Iβm just minding my own business and my mind suddenly goes why wasnβt friendship as good as relationship why wasnβt it even better it was two people who remained together day by day bound not by sex or physical attraction or money or children or property but only by the shared agreement to keep going the mutual dedication to a union that could never be codified and Iβm like fuck thatβs so true
