Happy 20th Birthday, tessa !!!! It all started with a compliment of my colour palette gifset (back when i giffed **** **** and back when i thought oversaturated gifs were cool and i guess, so did you tess). (also pls let the record state that tess made the first move. your honour, can u believe this) Now we’ve been friends for over a year now and we don’t even talk about gifs anymore, because obviously our friendship is so much more than that. From our mutual love of star wars, to our mutual hate of past selves (i mean, we thought lipless ***** *’**** was the shit ok, idk her?), and even to disagreeing (but really agreeing) about my main michael b jordan (you totally love him too, admitting is the first step ok.) I love talking to you about the littlest things, how your day was, intersectional feminism, destroying gender roles; anything!
Our convos include old classics like “raw me”, “also”(repeated 5 times in one series of messages), “your impact”, and your longstanding relationship with captain america himself, to our newer phrases like, “metaphorical boner killer”, “YEET [throws topic away]” and “*nuts instantly*”
We’re literally internet pals but you’ve taught me so much, you’ve made me feel so much better about myself and you allowed me to be who I am, and that is literally priceless. Happy birthday, I love you, and I hope you like my gifset (i had to redeem myself over last years oversaturated Mess, thank you v much).
