I remember when Carol came out and all the straights were like "its distant" "its cold" and here I am on my 400th viewing and it just gets warmer and more intimate every time I watch it.

"I grew up in an area where the remains and ruins of past civilizations and cultures have always been omnipresent. Oftentimes at night, men went to excavate the sanctuaries and the ruins to look for objects to sell. I would always hear about their stories, about their nighttime discoveries, and they surprised me. I asked myself 'What gives them the authority to do such a thing? How do they think they can do something like that?' Because you can always escape the laws of the day, but it's much harder to escape the laws of the night, of the invisible, of the sacred things."

POOR THINGS

You're just a mammal. Let yourself act like it. Your brain needs enrichment. Your body needs rest. You feel hunger and grow hair. You need to pack bond with other sentient things so you don't become unsocialized and neurotic. You are biologically inclined to seek dopamine and become sick when chronically stressed. "Hedonism" is made up to place moral value on taking pleasure in sensory experiences. I am telling you that if you don't let yourself be a fucking mammal, as you were made, you will suffer and go insane. No grindset no diets no trying to be above your drive for connection. Pursue what makes you feel good and practice radial rejection of the constructs meant to turn you into a machine. You're a mammal.

[eldritchbauble]

I am so serious about the way people are taught to view themselves as separate from and above any other animal being the root cause of a lot of problems. You're not better than a beast.

a little personal response / tribute to "here's the life i've always longed for" by Anna Haifisch. the original means so much to me, and even though it's hard, I feel like every day i'm making more steps toward finally being on the other side of that fence <:)
