What should I get myself for my 25th birthday in 3 weeks? Maybe I should open an IRA? (That is the most adult thing I have ever thought ever)

[thestateimin]

She in fact did not open an IRA

Kind of jealous of people whose parents insisted on them attending Catholic school because they probably have a much better frame of reference for interpreting lyrics of Belle and Sebastian songs.

And also like…a significant bulk of the western literary canon. But mostly Belle and Sebastian songs.

i support girls anger. i support girls who yell. i support girls who get called bitches and cunts at parties because they’ll swear at guys who won’t leave them alone. i support girls who don’t believe in second chances and cut off people who hurt them. i support girls who say no the first time and flip you off if you ask them again. i support girls who will never allow themselves to be pushovers and constantly get shit for it. you’re fucking incredible.

Tabler spotlight: Eryca Sender!

Project name: My Little Friend, I Have Nothing Special to Draw, Dear High School Boy, Found Letter, etc. 

Location: Los Angeles, CA

Description of your zine/distro: All of my zines are deeply personal, mostly about my relationships. Relationships with people, food, tv shows, music, etc. I write what I know, and I think sometimes it’s relate-able. I am also a strictly cut and paste person. No digital layouts for me! Getting my finger tips sticky, and sitting in a pile of paper slivers is part of the fun!  

Why you love perzines: I love perzines because they can foster friendships, and at the very least they can make you feel less alone. I found per-zines when I was 12, and they helped me through my teens and early 20’s more than I could ever have imagined. Plus, they brought me some of my best friends!
