Ah what

Σκέψου η ζωή να τραβάει το δρόμο της, και συ να λείπεις, να ‘ρχονται οι Άνοιξες με πολλά διάπλατα παράθυρα, και συ να λείπεις (Ρίτσος) | Νὰ σοῦ γλείψω τὰ χέρια, νὰ σοῦ γλείψω τὰ πόδια – ἡ ἀγάπη κερδίζεται μὲ τὴν ὑποταγή. (Χριστιανόπουλος)

If WWX wrote a book, it would be a twenty volume extremely over the top and surprisingly non-explicit love story where the protagonist falls into a coma twice and the main love interest has to hide from their evil look alike cousin by faking his death in pt. 13. He'd start out writing it "ironically" and then end up getting unexpectedly invested, lose a couple of plotlines in the process and make up for it by adding so many dramatic twists a reveals that no one can keep up. His pen name would either be a pun or something so over the top and ridiculous, everyone immediately recognizes it's him.

If LWJ wrote a book, it would be highly explicit noncon smut under the pen name Wangji. No one would ever even guess it's him.

hi, a lot of you need a perspective reset

the average human lifespan globally is 70+ years

taking the threshold of adulthood as 18, you are likely to spend at least 52 years as a fully grown adult

at the age of 30 you have lived less than one quarter of your adult life (12/52 years)

'middle age' is typically considered to be between 45-65

it is extremely common to switch careers, start new relationships, emigrate, go to college for the first or second time, or make other life-changing decisions in middle age

it's wild that I even have to spell it out, but older adults (60+) still have social lives and hobbies and interests.

you can still date when you get old. you can still fuck. you can still learn new skills, fashionable, be competitive. you can still gossip, you can still travel, you can still read. you can still transition. you can still come out.

young doesn't mean peaked. you're inexperienced in your 20s! you're still learning and practicing! you're developing social skills and muscle memory that will last decades!

there are a million things to do in the world, and they don't vanish overnight because an imaginary number gets too big

I'm trying to find a fanfic and it's driving me crazy. The only thing that I remember is that wei wuxian is in cloud recesses and they are trying to cleanse him of yin energy (?), but the yin energy is all that keeps his body together at this point, so as he's being cleansed all the physical trauma he has suffered is surfacing. First the wen seal burn, then the zidian lashes and so on, so the lan doctors take it slowly, healing everything as it comes up. Please heeeeelp 😭

Edit: Found! It was 'Tether'

THAT’S THE SOUND IT MAKES!?!?!?

[why-animals-do-the-thing]

We got asked if this is cute and okay. I can very happily say yes, this is stupid cute and those are happy porcupine noises. 

One of my favorite things about doing zoo work was all the noises you never realize the animals make when they’re excited or interested in a new thing. Coatimundis squeak and snuffle, and giant porcupines make that sound. 

[typhoidmeri]

Omgggg the sounds.

Your Literary Dinner Party Experience:

Wuthering Heights: The food is as unappealing as the host’s personality. You find yourself fleeing the estate and taking refuge in the surrounding moorlands before the second course is served.

Great Expectations: The host wears a mildewed wedding dress as she cuts what looks to be a thirty-year-old piece of vanilla cake. You sit quietly and try to fake a smile.

Northanger Abbey: You think your host is the type of person who might have murdered his wife and hid her body in a dusty old dresser. As you take a bite of the pot roast it doesn’t even occur to you that he might just be a dick.

Jane Eyre: The fare is far better than the stale bread and bitter tea provided at your boarding school, but that’s little comfort when the host’s wife keeps setting the table linens on fire.

Dracula: You know that you are sipping on a fine Cabernet, but what is he drinking?

Pride and Prejudice: Over dessert, one of your guests confesses that he has fallen in love with you in spite of your family’s terrible table manners. You stab your pudding with your spoon and tell him he’s the last man you could ever be prevailed upon to marry.
