Trying to explain to someone how I'm convinced I'll die before I turn 21 or 25 is harder than it should be.

New Thing to Try to Stay Motivated

After a long haitus from this website and a long first semester of grad school, I’ve realized I have a hard time keeping up with things. I lack any real organizational skills and if someone were to meet me they would never recognize any attempt of mine to call myself a functioning adult. 

Therefore, I’m going to try and post a small picture of something I cleaned everyday with a before and after. Not because I think anyone really cares but because I need some accountability. Also, somethings in my life are truly VERY MESSY AND NEED CLEANING right now so maybe doing something every day will help me get it done. If I feel like I owe it to something outside of myself. 

Didn’t get a picture but I did a little bit of cleaning in my living room today. It wasn’t crazy but I feel better, and I think that is probably the first step. Tomorrow I’ll post a before or after for something else.

A brief insight into a world where animals vocalize like Pokémon:

Patient: “What’s wrong with me?”

Doctor: “Well let’s take a listen.”

Muffled voice from inside patient: “Tapeworm”

in australia huntsman spiders that are big enough to start paying rent would have a deep voice that goes “HUNTSMAN” and half of the aussie population would die in a day out of sheer terror. while wombats on the other hand would have a voice like slowpoke

If I was as sleepy at night as I am in the morning, and as awake in the morning as I am at night… I would be at least double as productive

Juat a very normal scene of police erecting barricades so the rich can eat peacefully under a highway surrounded by the poor.

The sign of high quality is the fact the book was banned by the government. Trash literature NEVER EVER had any troubles with the law.

FARENHEIT 451 IS ON THE BANNED BOOKS LIST??? IT’S LITERALLY ABOUT THE SOCIETAL DANGERS OF BANNING/OUTLAWING/BURNING BOOKS ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME

[dancing-coyote]

That’s the reason it’s on the bloody list.

BECAUSE IT’S ABOUT HOW BANNING AND BURNING BOOKS IS WRONG.

Other things that have existed/did exist longer than the Confederacy:

Color Television Betamax video cassette tapes and players High Definition television broadcast signals The fucking iPhone Automobiles The Lord of the Rings Trilogy Star Trek Comic Books Pre-sliced bread The Obama Administration The Simpsons The Civil Rights movement Women’s Suffrage The Chicago Cubs Curse of the Goat Beef Wellington Rock and Roll Rap R&B Ska Nu-Metal Disney Twilight NASA The lightbulb Jazzercise Pogs Pokemon Airplanes Hamster Dance Sailor Moon

General lesson?  The Confederacy is not your heritage.  It wasn’t around long enough for anyone to be proud of it.  You’re just racist.

hot take: hozier is not a fae. he is a mortal from pre-christian ireland who ventured in the fae world, and found out 15 centuries had passed when the faes finally released him

[redwolf17]

This is a valid take and you should say it

[serotoninsuggestion]

an author i love just tweeted about how “big joy and small joy are the same” and how she was just as content the other night eating chocolate and cuddling her dog as she was on her Big Trip to new york and honestly. i think that’s it. this morning i was listening to an audiobook while baking shortbread in my joggers and i realised i really didn’t care what Big Things happened in my future as long as i could keep baking and reading at the weekend and maybe that is the kind of bar we have to set to guard ourselves against disappointment. just appreciate and cherish the mundane stuff and see everything else as a bonus.

[serotoninsuggestion]

found it - she was replying to this thread that starts “unpopular opinion: i don’t think your life has to have a purpose, or you a grand ambition; i think it’s okay to just wander through life finding interesting things until you die” and i for one think that’s fucking brilliant
