like, the most compelling ships for me always stem out of one thing: the characters have a profound, ongoing effect on each other’s senses of selves. when they are apart, the characters’ actions are still affected by each other. the way they approach the world changes because of the other.
which is this deeply Austenian view of ideal romantic relationships as mechanisms by which we come to know ourselves better and become better versions of ourselves. good romance, for me, is always tied in with a sense of self-actualization, and the way in which a beloved partner allows a person to know themselves better.
ok i am curious. how long is the longest song in your library (not counting tracks that are like several songs in one file like a full album mix or symphony recording or whatever) (also if it is longer than 20 minutes say the name in the tags i am curious)
ok i would like to clarify it has to be music and it can't just be a short song that's been looped a bunch. that still counts as several songs in one file, it's just several of the same song in one file. no audiobooks no podcasts no plants vs zombies theme 2 hour loop
At the end of the day, who really are you if everything you know about yourself stems from the life of a person you're pretending to live as?

Sometimes when I wake up I'm a new version of me I haven't met and I don't remember where I am and I think. Like. I belonged somewhere far far away and got trapped here as a form of c o s m i c p u n i s h m e n t. Like. A sinner taken to the slaughter. And I stop sleeping and suddenly I realise these people I call my family are people I don't know OR love. But that's cruel right. And I wake up not remembering days. Weeks at a time. And suddenly the house I thought was mine feels like a prison and when I look in the mirror my face it changes every time and I feel sick and have to look away because that's not me.
And I begin fearing that I don't recognise myself in any of my memories and I dont recognise the friends the me I see in my memories fought so hard to get and I realise that I REPLACED HIM. I AM THE REPLACEMENT. And so I try to gamble my life away and I fill "my" body with meds and caffeine and I pity the "ME" I replaced so much that I run around and s l a u g h t e r everyone who ever hurt him because he deserves to rest in peace. Sometimes I wonder if I'm actually dead and this is my afterlife but haha.
That has to be a lie right. Right. Please. Tell me I'm right. Who the fuck am I now? Him? M-

“average person eats 3 spiders a year” factoid actualy just statistical error. average person eats 0 spiders per year. Spiders Georg, who lives in cave & eats over 10,000 each day, is an outlier adn should not have been counted
It's Hikaru no Go Day, so I wanted to share my Hikago-themed bullet journal spread for May~! I'm really happy with it, and I thought there might be a few more people who'll appreciate it here than some other places >.>
I used the same font as the English HnG volumes, and the game diagrams are all from various games throughout the manga:
Cover: Hikaru (Sai) v. Toya Meijin (ch 101, Shinshodan game) combined with some basic opening joseki
Week 1: Hikaru v. Sai (ch 125, it's the one that happens on 5/5 :p ); sai v. toya koyo (ch 113, 'net Go)
Week 2: Akira v. Sai (ch 35, 'net Go); Hikaru v. Yashiro (ch 165, although the full kifu is also at the end of 177; the crosscut at the tengen <3 this is my favorite game in the series <3)
Week 3: Hikaru (Sai) v. Akira (ch 6, second game, they're just little babies aljksks)
Week 4: Hikaru v. Akira (ch 147, their first real game); Hikaru v. Suyong Hong (ch 76, the key point that turns the game around)
For most of them, I didn't pick any particularly special parts of the game, just a group of stones that looked nice and fit in the area they needed to fit in, but I did pick a couple groups for their significance (Yashiro, Suyong).
