I bet having a hole drilled into your head feels really good for a second or so

[themourningbody]

stuck between a rock (worrying will prevent) and a hard place (worrying will manifest)

[mourningkite]

Underground is a weird place

[theriverbeyond]

why don't you do arts and crafts for 5 hours and then you'll calm down

I look at our cancer-riddled dog on the living room rug and think about all the flights of stairs his bad joints have had to carry him down to get to the yard he loves so much. I look at my mother's living urn waiting to be buried beneath her tree and think about how that's all that's left of her. I think of all the people I love who I no longer talk to because I can't, or I don't know how to, or it's just not good anymore. The great big Terror of my life is loss. I live through it, I wait for it, I am never prepared. I want a summer that doesn't feel so lonely, so fearful. There hasn't been one in years.

i actually do think it’s anti-feminist to be fatphobic and yes i do mean that

[heavensghost]

Forgive me, I am soft and warm, but cruel and a coward, I know nothing but goodbye, goodbye

me: I’m excited to read a Stephen King book again! It’s been a while!

stephen king: *describing a woman’s breasts for no reason before we’ve even left the first page*

happy mother’s day. i can see the hospital that killed my mom from the parking lot of my favorite theater. they’re playing trailers for sequels of movies i saw with her. i know she’d shrug and give them a thumbs down from the seat next to mine. i know we’d fight on the way home. i know it would be okay by morning.

gently touching her wedding ring and whispering “please stop… for me…”

[themourningbody]

I love the way I deal with health anxiety the same way I would deal with monsters in the closet. YES there is a monster in the closet, BUT if I stay under the covers, it won’t get me. YES there is cancer in my body, BUT if I don’t look for it, it won’t kill me. I love these rules

[obscurix]

i feel so left out. like everyone around me knows how to be a human and i don’t.

[rubynyoro-n]

I love trans women

[rubynyoro-n]

The world would be unbearable without trans women

[themourningbody]

i just know snow’s heart fell into his ass when he watched not one but two district 12 tributes become victors for the first time in 24 years

[themourningbody]

I didn’t know they could fit this many weeks into march
