i was so angry at everything when i was 15. and i was right

watching American Psycho and honestly I swear people describe their skincare routines exactly like Patrick Bateman far too often

[spectrumcore]

actually this is the perfect film to mock people who are too into things but on an entirely superficial and petty level that is all about outmanouvering their peers rather than any genuine passion. typesetting, skincare, music, fitness, fashion, restaurants...

Something i’m pondering at the moment is the idea of mechanism with motion, first set in motion 250-ish years ago, that can still move.

I saw this mechanical wonder at the Bowes Museum, UK a few years back.

it’s a thing of beauty, art and genius. 

The footage here doesn’t do it justice. because when I saw it sitting in the middle of the room. It’s sparkled and glittered.

Period automata are fascinating.

A BBC documentary about them (”Mechanical Marvels: Clockwork Dreams”) is on YouTube, and this swan features at about 42:55. It was designed and built by a man called Joseph Merlin…

If you lost your teenage years to mental illness and/or trauma, I just want you to know that you did not "miss out on the best years of your life" and that it isn't actually too late for you to have fun, explore yourself and grow into the person you want to be. There's still plenty of time for all of that. I promise.

[milkilita-movved-deactivated202]

This also goes for your 20s

It's not too late to have fun and to grow ♡ not at all

You're dangerous when you're organized. Visualize it, grind for it, watch it manifest. Detach from everything that doesn't make you happy.

Say it with me: by next June 2022, I will be living my dreams.
