wandering earth

it's pronounced mee-lo 20 from provincetown, now living in greenwich really queer

“You and me both, my friend,” Teodora said, a smile attached to her face. “You could say it’s both, actually. I’m Romanian, but I lived in Belgium for five years. Glad I left, though.”

[milohartford]

Right, right. I knew I was thinking of one of those. Are they really all that bad? I mean, America’s fine and all, but I’d rather see something different. Change of scenery, you know?

[xnchrs-deactivated20161021]

If you want to come with me to get it, just to see what it’s like, I’d be down with that. Milo? Ah, what a cool name. Especially the way you pronounce it.

[milohartford]

If you’ll have me, then I’d love to check it out. I’ll try not to faint over you. Thanks, though. Picked it out myself. It’s the Australian pronunciation, I believe. Bit more gender neutral than the hard I.

[xnchrs-deactivated20161021]

It is nice. And it means a lot to me. No worries, then! If it sounds like a no, don’t do it. Cause you don’t want to regret it. Also, I don’t think I got your name. I’m Mallory.

[milohartford]

That’s cool, then. Symbolism is always important. I mean, I don’t know. Maybe if I warm up to it more. But it’s nice to meet you, Mallory. I’m Milo. Spelled with an I, pronounced with an E.

[xnchrs-deactivated20161021]

I’m getting the outline of a star on my rib. Tattoos don’t hurt that bad, unless you don’t breathe. Then, they hurt like a mother fucker.

[milohartford]

Ooh, sounds nice. I don’t know. Needles near my flesh just kind of sounds like a giant no thanks to me.

[xnchrs-deactivated20161021]

I cannot wait for my next tattoo. Like, for real. It’s exciting.

[milohartford]

What are you getting? I’ve always wanted a tattoo. I’m way too much of a wuss, though.

“Literally every time I watch Ellen, I fall more and more in love with her but she’s fifty seven and has a wife. I just, the struggle is real.”

[milohartford]

True, true, one-hundred percent true. I mean, at this point I’ve fallen in love with almost every celebrity, but Ellen... oh man.

[gamcrra]

“So, America, here I am. And on Saint Patrick’s day— this reminds me of the time my English teacher threw a party in the class. She gave us boa feathers and wigs and flags with the Irish colors on them. Sorry, you probably don’t want to hear this. I usually don’t ramble, but I’m really excited to finally be here, after waiting for so long.”

[milohartford]

Hey, no, it’s fine. It sounds like my kind of party. I mean, wigs and feather boas? I’d dress in those every day if society didn’t damn me for doing so. Anyways, sorry. Where are you from again? It’s some country with a B, I know it. Or is it an R?

[ellyffs-blog]

There’s nothing a 10 hour Law and Order: SVU marathon can’t fix.

[milohartford]

Don’t get me started on that show. It’s so horrible but, like, once you’re channel surfing and you come on it, you can’t really stop. I mean, who really did murder that pregnant heroin addict? The struggles, I tell you.

[brynncs]

I can eat like so much Panda Express in one day, it’s a little scary. Like, literally, I would bathe in orange chicken if given the chance. I could eat it 24/7, it’s getting a little out of hand.

[milohartford]

Oh, man, I am with you on that. It’s shitty Chinese food but goddamn if I couldn’t eat it all day, every day.

[lizzieshane-deactivated20150324]

But that doesn’t make it official. That just makes people stop and look at you like you’re an idiot, because you’re calling yourself something completely different from your birth name.

[milohartford]

You get used to it after a while, believe me.

[fkkjasper-blog]

I think dancing should be a currency. Yo, I don’t have any money, but I can attempt to twerk for that bagel?

[milohartford]

Oh my god, no. I would literally be bankrupt in minutes. You couldn’t threaten my life to make me dance in public.

[lizzieshane-deactivated20150324]

Okay, would there happen to be anyone here who has particularly extensive knowledge about the name-changing process? Because, I swear, if someone calls me McGuire one more time, I might actually snap.

[milohartford]

You pick a different name and call yourself by it. It isn’t exactly advanced physics, but hey.

[frckelena-deactivated20150805]

Does anyone else just start watching one youtube video or even a vine, then skip to the one below it, then the one below and then the other one below it? — Until you get too caught up that you don’t even know where video of theme is. At first you’re at a cat video then you’re at documentary on how they make crayons in factories. I really don’t spend my time productively anymore. 

[frckelena-deactivated20150805]

[milohartford]

Well, how do they make crayons in factories, then? It sounds like a fascinating process.

[milohartford]

greetings loved ones

let’s take a journey

what up peeps you can call me riley i’m really queer and someday I wanna move to new zealand

I am a massive nerd like so massive oh man. i’m not gonna say just what i’m a nerd for just bc it’s kind of embarrassing but it’s on nickelodeon if that gives you any hints

anyway milo yes

ways in which we are alike (see look at me educating you in two ways at once):

both mega queer

came from massachusetts

big into social issues

massive nerd who writes a lot of words

p. smart-ish

has depression and some social anxiety

cursed with an overwhelming fear of the inevitability of death

likes to escape into fictional worlds to escape said fear

ways in which milo is cooler than me:

actually speaks their mind at stuff and will totally scream at you if you are a prejudiced dick

likes to sing but cannot. sounds more like a dying tuna.

very open romantically and affectionate (they will make out with you after like two days of knowing you)

acts now, thinks later

you can find them literally anywhere. they want to do everything and learn everything and teach everyone. 

that’s p. much it let me know if you want to know anything else

um

yeah

!!!!!
