“Do you ever think ‘how did I end up here?’ Like you are in a maze and totally lost and it’s all your fault because you were the one who made every turn? And you know that there are many routes that could have helped you out, because you hear all the people on the outside of the maze who made it through, and they are laughing and smiling. And sometimes you get a glimpse of them through the hedge. A fleeting shape through the leaves. And they seem so damn happy to have made it and you don’t resent them, but you do resent yourself for not having their ability to work it all out. Do you? Or is this maze just for me?”

I think adults need summer vacation. Like let's just close down all our jobs for three months and play outside. Please. I'm so tired.

Love to see this post getting notes again. None of us are ok.

“It's taboo to admit that you're lonely. You can make jokes about it, of course. You can tell people that you spend most of your time with Netflix or that you haven't left the house today and you might not even go outside tomorrow. But rarely do you ever tell people about the true depths of your loneliness, about how you feel more and more alienated from your friends each passing day and you're not sure how to fix it. It seems like everyone is just better at living than you are. A part of you knew this was going to happen. Growing up, you just had this feeling that you wouldn't transition well to adult life, that you'd fall right through the cracks. And look at you now, it's happening.”

Tracy Chapman and Luke Combs performing Fast Car at the Grammys

[curiobjd]

From the notes:

"so Luke Combs (the dude, country singer) released a cover of it this past year, and it became a hit. He didn't change the pronouns either. So a white guy covering a black woman's song, it becoming a hit and actually giving her the credit is nice. B/c of the song's popularity it won Song of the Year at the Country Music Awards. That award goes to the songwriter, Tracy, the first Black queer woman to win."

[vaspider]

He didn't change the pronouns or the gendered words which refer to the singer. He sings, "I work at the market as a checkout girl," which gives the entire thing a deep "closeted transmasc" vibe that I love so much.

There was a lot of fuss when the song first came out and then Chapman spoke up and said, essentially, "I really like this version, actually, and it's making me an awful lot of money, which is nice, so please leave him alone."

I think it's also important to note that at one point, the camera cuts to Brandi Carlisle, a lesbian folk singer, who is holding on to her wife. I'm quite sure that was intentional.

(Speaking of watching people who are so happy to be where they are, the way that Brandi can't stop staring at Joni Mitchell and smiling when they performed together later that night... you can basically see that her entire train of thought is I AM ON STAGE AT THE GRAMMYS WITH JONI MITCHELL!! MY LIFE IS SO COOL!! and that's pretty fucking great.)

a woman will be 28 or whatever and all the 24 year olds are in shock like “no fucking way I seriously couldn’t tell. you don’t look near death at all”

The best quality a fictional man can have is being deeply, pathetically, wretchedly in love with someone, I think

"useless gay" jokes are OUT this energy is IN

Fun little math trick I find really helpful: the ratio of a mile to a kilometer is within 1% of the Golden Ratio. That means that if you have a good memory for Fibonacci numbers (1 2 3 5 8 13 21 34 55 89) you can convert pretty accurately by taking consecutive Fibonacci numbers.

For example, 89 kilometers is really close to 55 miles (55.3). Or, say you need to convert 26 miles to kilometers: 26 can be written as 21 plus 5, so taking the next Fibonacci number up gives 34 and 8, meaning it should be around 42 kilometers. Sure enough, it's 41.8 km!

i need several moments, math like this scares me

Not gonna lie, as much as I want to be helpful and comprehensible, I am very proud of provoking that reaction image.
