I had a dream last night that the Decemberists guy put out a new song that was him announcing the band was breaking up, but the song was also his like detailing his future career path, and it was an excruciatingly granular 13.5 minutes of him explaining to us in detail that he was going to become a world renowned marionette maker and like the steps he was going to take to complete this (step 1 was learn to spin flax to make his own cord, step 2 was learn whittling to create his own puppets, step 3 to make his own paints, etc etc. He was going for that vertical slice sort of thing) All the while someone was shouting in the background I DON'T WANNA BREAK UP and WHO'S GOING TO GET MY ACCORDION because apparently there was a custody battle happening for that?? But as it turned out the song was too much of a banger and people wouldn't let them quit and also he had like horrible arthritis in his hands that was preventing him from making the shit so they announced within the week that the band was actually back together and The Marionette Maker's Heart's Desire was like their new #1 hit

I think cis women should be allowed to get top surgery even if its not for a medical reason like breast reduction or cancer. I think they should be able to get it even if they're completely cisgender. Some women are just sick of dealing with them and would be much much happier never needing to wear a bra again

when I was younger I always fantasized about shutting the fuck up and never asking anyone for anything. I fantasized about never talking again after being hurt or never wanting for anything after desiring something. I would fantasize about someone realizing their mistake. realizing they hurt me and affected our relationship permanently and would ask for forgiveness.

I would fantasize about a world where I could withdraw as a response to being hurt, and the person hurting me would stop and go “what have I done?” And they would then take care of me. they would hold me and tell me they’re sorry and that they didn’t mean to make me feel so hurt and unloved. but I never got to experience that. I sooner or later realized that people don’t care how little you’re in their life. it’s fine if you’re only a small part of a world that has them taking up so much of yours. Sooner or later I would realize my mistake. there is no one waiting to apologize for making me feel unloved. there is no one waiting to hold me and to assure me I am cared for when I feel so desperately empty inside.

sooner or later you realize that sometimes when you pull away, people are relieved. sometimes they can’t even tell a difference.
