my favourite part of the Hozier concert was how, with most artists I've seen, they introduce songs with personal anecdotes like, "I wrote this song when I went through a terrible break up in spring" etc but Mr Andrew Hozier gets up on stage and says something like, "so this song is about lucifer and god being trapped in Dante's Inferno and hating every minute only to find when they leave that they miss one another dearly" or he talks about the solidarity politics in his music and I genuinely love that so much and I hate how much of that element of his artistry is lost in the weird tiktokification of his music

“To love somebody is not just a strong feeling—it is a decision, it is a judgment, it is a promise. If love were only a feeling, there would be no basis for the promise to love each other forever. A feeling comes and it may go.”

“Some things are believed because people feel as if they must be true, and in such cases an immense weight of evidence is necessary to dispel the belief.”

tiktok is such an awful app, it's almost designed to feed you misinformation and expose you to insane discourse. unlike beloved tumblr, the app that feeds me misinformation and exposes me to insane discourse

No, no, no, you see on tiktok an algorithm feeds you misinformation. On Tumblr I feed myself misinformation from my charcuterie board of hand-selected unhinged mutuals.

[lierdumoa]

None of that mass market junk. Only artisanal, small batch, sustainably cultivated, fair trade horseshit.

the thing about project hail mary is that it says things like at the start of our existence we watched each other sleep to protect ourselves from our biology and now it is just a part of our lives but all my crewmates are dead so i shall watch you sleep to keep you safe please watch me sleep too and then it says things like an alien wants to see our technology so i am cleaning my spacecraft up whilst he prepares the airlock because i am painfully human and we clean up for company and it just expects me to go on living my life normally like that isn't emotionally compromising
