One can only create a truly original perfume by adding an extra note,                                            one final essence that will ring out and dominate the others.

tag yourself!

socks: confused about the future, messy buns, bad sleeping habits, loves fantasy, bad dad jokes, ambivert, underappreciated

hoodie: loves winter, indecisive, good at comforting friends, very self-conscious, just wants to cuddle, movie critic

sweatpants: the type to blast music in headphones, dislikes children, klutz, long video calls, the friend whose laugh is funnier than the joke

turtlenecks: philosophical conversations, social anxiety, close circle of friends, spends more time home than outside, thoughtful

skirts: online shopping, probably has a sketchbook, draws “tattoos” on skin with pen, big dreams and big goals, afraid of failure, likes attention

“But gods are born of ichor and nectar, their excellences already bursting from their fingertips. So they find their fame by proving what they can mar: destroying cities, starting wars, breeding plagues and monsters. All that smoke and savour rising so delicately from our altars. It leaves only ash behind.”

               – Madeline Miller, Circe

this site is full of young people who are still learning about the world around them. we don’t know everything yet and we will make mistakes, but we’re trying our best. so next time somebody shows their ignorance, don’t tear them down. either educate them respectfully or let them figure things out for themselves. but sending anon hate and making call out posts makes you part of the problem, and if you can’t see that then you’re not nearly as woke as you think you are.

Marko from Saga means so much to me.

This picture may be a poor representation of the myriad reasons he is important…but let’s just enjoy this for what it is at the moment.  Fiona Staples has gone on record as saying he is meant to be Asian, and I admire her for not implementing traditionally stereotypical representations of Asian-ness in her depictions of him.  Though he does adhere to the fairly rigid ideals of Western male beauty, I’ve never not see him as Asian, though I know many readers don’t have the same perception of him.  You may wonder why it’s noteworthy that he is an Asian male lead, or you may totally “get it.”  But for me, Marko is powerful because Marko is there.  Marko is flawed and interesting, humorous and dashing.  He is alluring, handsome, and he is given a fully intact sexual persona.  Along with his fellow POC wife, Alana, he shoulders the story of an epic space opera and fulfills on the oft untested task of being Asian and a leading man.  I love him for so many reasons.
