Diary of an ADD Squirrel on PCP

She opened her heart and spilled all her secrets to an invisible stranger. I love EDM/Trance, Harry Potter, Sherlock, Torchwood, Doctor Who, and Battlestar Galactica; German living in the US, posting life rants and non english content at times.

[babbleismysuperpower]

   When we sleep for good, I would like a tree. I would like Ann to have a tree, too. We can be side by side, on one of the hills that we used to explore.    My tree will be bigger. I loved him more. Ann is the one he picked first. But he came back for me.

(Rick Bass, from The Odyssey) 

[cacchieressa]

Missing someone is like hearing a name sung quietly from somewhere behind you. Even after you know no one is there, you keep looking back until on a silver afternoon like this you find yourself breathing just enough to make a small dent in the air.

--from “Slow Dance” by Tim Seibles

Then it stops like a bird; like a flower, hangs furled: They must solace themselves with the Saturn above it. What matter to me if their star is a world? Mine has opened its soul to me; therefore I love it.

-- from "My Star" by Robert Browning

[songofsunset]

And nearer fast and nearer Doth the red whirlwind come; And louder still and still more loud, From underneath that rolling cloud Is heard the trumpet’s war-note proud, The trampling, and the hum. And plainly and more plainly Now through the gloom appears, Far to left and far to right, In broken gleams of dark-blue light, The long array of helmets bright, The long array of spears.

- Horatius at the Bridge by Thomas Babington Macaulay

Yes, we’d like to clap the camels, to smell the spice, admire her hairy legs and bonny wicked smile, we want to take PhDs in Persian, be vice to her president: we want to help her ask some Difficult Questions she’s shouting for our wisest man to test her mettle: Scour Scotland for a Solomon! Sure enough: from the back of the crowd someone growls: whae do you think y'ur? and a thousand laughing girls and she draw our hot breath and shout

The first

"I love you"

will taste like

hope.

The last

"I love you"

will taste like

a lie.

The

"I love you"

that you waited for

but never arrived

will taste like

a blade.

Astronomies and slangs to find you, dear, Star, art-breath, crowner, conscience! and to chart For kids unknown your distal beauty, part On part that startles, till you blaze more clear And witching than your sister Venus here To a late age can, though her senior start Is my new insomnia,—swift sleepless art To draw you even... and to draw you near.

I prod our English: cough me up a word, Slip me an epithet will justify My daring fondle, fumble of far fire Crackling nearby, unreasonable as a surd, A flash of light, an insight: I am the shy Vehicle of your cadmium shine... your choir.

—John Berryman, Berryman's Sonnets: #66

[lostinlifesrandomevents]

But

if each day,

each hour,

you feel that you are destined for me

with implacable sweetness,

if each day a flower

climbs up to your lips to seek me,

ah my love, ah my own,

in me all that fire is repeated,

in me nothing is extinguished or forgotten,

my love feeds on your love, beloved,

and as long as you live it will be in your arms

without leaving mine.

- "If you forget me" by Pablo Nerudo

I need everyone to know that the ship Götheborg, the world's largest ocean-going wooden sailing ship, answered a distress call the other day.

Imagine waiting for the coast guard or whatever to show up and instead a replica of 18th century merchant ship pulls up and tows you to the coast.

[foxgirlofficial]

pov: you’ve been transported to the 17th century

[uvradical]

#in the article it says that the sailboat sailors were concerned because they could not be towed quickly because of the kind of boat#so they asked Götheborg what type of ship they were and warned that they would not be able to go above a certain speed#and götheborg went ' we are also a sailboat. 50 meters length. no worries :) '#and the poor sailboat sailors were just like ' That's not possible. they have to be messing with us' and then the ship Rolled Up (via bunjywunjy)

This is the most German comic I have ever seen. And it’s not even about Germans.

[inoffizielles-deutschland]

Ok I just now noticed the birds. I thought this was just a comic about bread and respectful distance. I stand with my point though.

You're not embarrassed being an old woman and being in tumblr? I would rather die that my grannies have an actual account on tumblr for celebrities rho

Why would I be embarrassed for having interests I enjoy? My guess is that you’re really, really young. And that maybe you don’t actually have solid relationships with adults who have lives outside of parenting or work. But I hope for you that when you’re my age you have hobbies that bring you happiness. And that by that point you realize that trying to shame someone for being an adult only makes you look too immature to be in adult spaces, which Tumblr is.

When I was 20, I loved music, making art, writing and reading good stories, fashion, talking about popular culture, making friends, going to concerts… You’d be surprised how little changes when you’re my age. I just have way more money and time to enjoy those things now. I’m only 55. I’m not dead. I’m also not a “granny”, but even if I was, I’d probably still like all of those things.

Ageism isn’t cute, love. And I sure don’t ever see people telling men they shouldn’t go to football games or have their little “fantasy football leagues” or wear their favorite player’s merch. For every comment you guys like to say is misogynistic (but isn’t), this is one that really reeks of it.

[twistedchickness]

What she said. ^^^ I am well over 60, I have been in fandom since I was 12, one way or another, and I ain’t leaving. And misogyny is never attractive.

[atlinmerrick]

I’ll be 60 soon and ha ha ha I’m in fandom forever.

(Enjoy your time with other children anon. And I promise you, they’re not creating all the content you love.)

[dduane]

Just turned 70 this last May. 

I am a fan. I’ve been a fan of one or another book series, TV show or comic since I was eight. I’ve been in organized, convention-going and print-based fandoms since I was old enough to vote. My generation invented online fandoms, and I’ve been in them from almost the very beginning of online. I’ve been on CompuServe and AOL and LiveJournal and the other earliest platforms where fandom congregated: Tumblr’s merely one of the newer ones. 

If some adorable, entitled, wet-behind-the-ears wee nonny thinks they’re going to roll up and have a little self-righteous fun shaming some senior Tumblrina into buggering off of here because she’s An Old—and should therefore (by their way of thinking) be embarrassed for enjoying the manifestation of her continuing passion for the best in media along with others, in long-standing community— Well, they’ve got another think coming. 

…And oh yeah: You don’t like it? Then just get off our lawn, sweetiecakes. We were here long before you were, and (if you’re so easily embarrassed) we’ll still be here long after you’re gone. :)

[biggest-gaudiest-poltergeist]

"oh please everyone has gay thoughts sometimes" so what i'm hearing is that heteronormativity is so ingrained that a significant percentage of the population regularly experiences bisexual attraction? but dismisses it as something that all straight people experience? this is so concerning are you guys okay

[biggest-gaudiest-poltergeist]

"lol women/men are so hot it's a shame i'm straight" buddy i've got news for ya

[biggest-gaudiest-poltergeist]

#gimme a B! and an I! and a PHO! and a BIA!!!

look hon you can be more frequently and strongly attracted to one gender, and still experience meaningful attraction to other genders. you can have a strong preference without that erasing other facets of your sexuality. a bunch of people experience bisexual attraction while still having a preference for a certain gender. and guess what! those are still bisexual experiences! congratulations human sexuality is rich and varied and frequently evolving isn't it wonderful isn't it grand!!!
