Lord Byron hiding behind a woman and yelling ‘Be gone, demon’ at a sleepwalking person has probably peaked television for me.

What does it mean when I'm too afraid to tell my (white) friends that I'm offended by something (race related) they did because I'm afraid they'll think I'm just trying to create drama in the friend group?

HONESTLY, my biggest pet peeve is when people claim they are “crazy”, “twisted” or anything weird just because they have unbelievably simple interest. It’s kinda like those people who watch 1 murder mystery show and are like “omg I can get away with murder now >:3.” Like bitch shut up I bet you can’t even order off the mcdonalds menu without having an anxiety attack.

Literally this is shit that little kids do and to see adults doing it makes me cringe dkgjdgh

ugh just me being annoying, thoughts -> I don't know what I did. Really I don't, but literally every single thing I have posted in the new year has come back with 1/4 of the feedback it normally does. EVERYTHING. I was never queen of a ton of feedback but... I try not to let it hurt me so much but it's really not working. I think I might take them all down & maybe post somewhere else (maybe here) where direct feedback isn't too much of a factor. Or just take them down n email updates to any friends who are interested. But... Yea

there’s a special kind of “first time” where when you think of that time you experience nostalgia mixed with inspiration mixed with a confusing yet comforting feeling of infinite possibilities

thinking of the first time i read harry potter does that. or the first time i witnessed the timey-wimey glory that is river song.

i completely understand what you’re saying but as a person with a low self-esteem issue and imposter syndrome, as someone who always feels she’s lacking, i cannot express to you how incredibly satisfying it is to watch or read a well-written “chosen one” trope , specially if it’s a female protagonist 

there are so many movies and books which use the chosen one trope and i can’t get enough of it.

Moana? Hit me with that puro. Princess diaries? Slap me one of those. Harry freaking Potter? not a female protag but damn what a series. Equal Rites by Terry Pratchett? Yes please! Kung Fu Panda? uh? HELL YEAH

Like, as a writer, I get why writers think it may not be the best way to tell a story, but as an audience member and a reader, I straight up love that shit. I love seeing someone who is seemingly extremely bad for the job be the only one who can actually do the job, I LOVE to see them struggle with their self-doubt, fumble through all the things they have to go through despite being massively underprepared, question their abilities and be all like “But you’ve got the wrong person” and all the while their destiny is telling them “You stuck up bitch, you ARE THE ONE.” 

It is simply gratifying to feel that no matter how unequipped and incapable i think i am, there’s something bigger than the material world, who thinks i am fucking meant to get this job done
