moments from a little life

[golden-letters]

bitch this is all you’re gonna get. this life, this face, this body. you better not ‘maybe in another universe’ your way out of everything. sit your ass down and face this. go make tea and have a picnic and read a goddamn book. kiss your loved ones, send that damn text, and hug your siblings. this is all you’re gonna get.

[reasoncourt]

we need to figure out a way to inject lyrics into our veins. science is useless otherwise

my primary motivators are fear, spite and aesthetic longing

having an opinion on philosophy makes you a philosopher. even if you think philosophy is stupid and pointless, THAT’S A PHILOSOPHY. you can’t escape

me holding a gun to a mushroom: tell me the name of god you fungal piece of shit

mushroom: can you feel your heart burning? can you feel the struggle within? the fear within me is beyond anything your soul can make. you cannot kill me in a way that matters

me cocking the gun, tears streaming down my face: I’M NOT FUCKING SCARED OF YOU

[miaislying]

hm sometimes i wish i was one of those people who moves thousands of miles away and never looks back and has a ton of adventures unmoored from their past and where they’re from but i can’t help looking back and i’m deeply, fervently defined by every person, thing, or place i’ve ever loved

[constellationpoet]

defined by every person i’ve ever loved.

[creatinghelen]

I am a mosaic of everyone I have ever known and loved and touched and I find fragments of them in my playlists and how I make my tea. we may not know each other any more but we will stay connected like this. I hope a fragment of me is with you too.

The reason Goncharov (1973) is such a hit is because it allows Tumblr to unironically participate in its national sport:

Lying

[constellationpoet]

all people do on here is lie i went to letterboxd looking for Goncharov (1973) only to find out that it doesnt. fucking. exist.

how do you just get up and deal with the fact that there’s a last time for everything. there was a last time you sat on your dads shoulders and there was a last time your mom tucked you into bed. there’s going to be a last time you kiss your sister on the head and there’s going to be a last time you hug your best friend. there’s going to be a last time you feel exactly as you feel right now and there’s going to be a last time that person says i love you. i need to lay down

[myclipboard]

that there are first times waiting that they ended because I stopped asking for them because I no longer wished for them FCCKKK WHAT

[constellationpoet]

subsistence and subjugation are all intertwined, like the stars that are scattered across the night sky. They dance a tango of death, they are in tandem, almost eternally.
