when I was 4 or 5, my mom was a prof at a college and she used to hand me the scantron sheet before she wrote the exam and let me colour whatever lettered bubble i wanted for each answer. if i coloured two by accident, she made an ‘all of the above’ option. one time she gave me it and i coloured the ‘a’ bubble for each of the 130 questions except for the second last one and she just went with it later on, she told me that it was the most entertaining exam she had ever watched her students take

If only the world was like this

A laughing pursuit through long grass. A sprawling mansion filled with memories that you glimpse in mirrors and glasses. A lover who promises to wait for you to dream again. Waking is like a hammer of lead.

Everyone thinks it’s amazing when there’s a successful GoFundMe to pay for someone’s medical treatment, but that’s literally how taxes and socialised medicine work.

He lay on his side, looking out at the sea. So blue at this time of day, so vibrant as the afternoon died around it. He lay there feeling the breeze on his face and the sea spreading out forever under the darkening sky and he felt so small, so utterly human, but it wasn’t a debilitating feeling. It was an oddly proud one. To be a part of this. A speck, yes. But part of it, one with it. Breathing.
