I hate, hate, HATE how love keeps being conflated with morality. How terrible people "just don't have enough love in their heart", as if deplorable shit hasn't ever been done in the name of love before. But haven't you heard? That's not TRUE love, because love is the only human emotion that's entirely pure. Sure, you can derive joy from both beautiful things and cruel acts, and anger can harm the people around you or be the motor for progress and positive change, but LOVE is the specialest little emotion that only ever does ONE thing and never causes ANY harm, EVER. And how dare you NOT feel it, you monster? Don't you love your family? Your friends? Have you never seen a cloudless sky on a warm summer day? A butterfly land on a flower? Don't you know that's love too? Shit, now you're just sad and pathetic. I pity your fucked up brain.

I lost the thread somewhere. Anyway, I hate how love is put on a pedestal. Always will.

This is alovephobia and lovenormavity

the idea that love will be the thing that stops me from being suicidal. no i think more not constantly living in fear of a painful death due to politics may help more but whatever non-suis dont care to listen to us. its always something love related whether romance or pets or family or friends or whatever.

The Crane Wives are my favorite band but oh god I hate the lyrics "And love's the only thing worth being alive for" in How to rest. I find many things worth living and none of them is love. Still love TCW tho 👍

(We like TCW too. UGH!! We've never listened to that song, kind of glad now.)
