this little town of ours

hidden scar in the pacific northwest

[nevermanscreek]

And I love you, my dear, as the log loves the mushroom,

As the wolf loves the dog,

As the duck loves the whistle,

As the tree loves the stickbug,

As the fish loves the louse that so tenderly replaces its tongue.

You are a facsimile. You are a mask. You are my darling’s reflection in the mirror.

You are a shape stuffed with lies and lichen and dripping smiles, a shape that once belonged to my wife,

And she is gone.

And I miss her.

And I hope she would not dismay.

For you are the lie made in her image, you are the creature that stole her long-dead face,

And you are my darling, and you I adore.

I suppose you have grown on me.

GASHADOKURO ON THE MOVE

the criticism of ash being laid back and happy in sun and moon is so funny like he’s literally a fourth grader on vacation in a place with no league or real obligations

So much of what is “cringe” is just… earnest.

[argumate]

what if you made an honest expression of genuine human emotion and someone saw it!

[argumate]

#no but seriously! this applies to minecraft fansongs or emo kids or poorly drawn art or whataver #not all self expression is nuanced or beautiful or particularly skilled #…and some things are cringe just because it’s stuff *you* used to do as a kid and it touches the whole ‘past me was awkward and terrible’

*smacking lips in satisfaction* oh now this beauty is going straight to pride of place in my cringe collection!

here’s a psa from ur local iranian-american, quit pronouncing “Iran” as “eye-ran”, it’s pronounced “ee-rahn”, and when one of us corrects you? fucking. change. start correcting yourself. I get the media sucks with pronouncing it right but at least make a goddamn effort, because it feels like no one really is. ive personally told ppl over 10 times and even then they didn’t get it right.

Pronouncing it like “eye-ran” leads to sososo many racist jokes, and they’re NOT harmless, they’re annoying and rude and overall really insensitive, and that can get to a person. please stop.

this is ok to rb, I encourage it if anything

Upon checking up on the various activities of humanity at this point in time, I am disgusted, worried, and inspired. Black lives matter, and this system will degenerate and crumple into pitiful slurries of bone before your spirits break. Hold strong, mortals.

is it insensitive to humanity to admit that this is the time when my power is at its fullest? the world’s a liminal stage! i visited madrid yesterday! beautifully empty!

The only problem with the winds of change is that they blow the rain in just the right way to keep waterlogging my balcony. I’ve got no objections to that but it frightens my assistant grievously. I am still working on convincing her the creatures that haunted her old home cannot fit themselves in puddles.

my bones recall when I was here in times before their time

and they were there and she and all our scales and fur and slime

few more of us than three of course but three fits to the rhyme

them by the sea, me in my woods, and she her cave and grime

spirits roam Mount St. Helens, burning as they go. the flames that took them that day continue to smolder. please do not ask them to roast your marshmallows. they will not tolerate such mockery.
