We're all in the gutter....

A wise man once said – “You can have anything in life if you’re willing to sacrifice everything else for it.” What he meant is nothing comes without a price. So before you go into battle, you better decide how much you’re willing to lose. Too often...

She wraps her legs around your waist. She whispers in your ear. “Stay.” This is your cue to kiss her. Wrap your fingers in her hair; enclose them around her neck. Hard. Just hard enough to feel her pulse, the quiet beat beat beating.  She won’t always be this vulnerable, this open. Right now her trust is in the palm of your hand. This is your cue to pull her closer. Place a gentle thumb on her bottom lip and breathe. “Stay, stay, stay” she says. Tell her you will. Tell her: “okay.”

I used to talk about marrying you and sharing the rest of my life with you and you too believed in it.  How funny it seems now to think that there was a time when we believed we’d always have each other. I was just thinking about it the other day. I drove past your house and I couldn’t help but ask myself where it is that we went wrong. I tried to pinpoint the exact moment in which we stopped believing in the idea of time. I tried to pinpoint the exact moment in which we reached inside our pockets, and found that we had run out of it. Did your pockets have holes or did I just spend it on all the wrong things?  I guess we’ll never know for sure but thinking of all the promises we made to each other, makes me smile. I guess I just wanted you to know that. I want you to know that even though we didn’t make it in this world, we tried our best and that makes me feel a little less sad, to think that we loved each other enough to believe we were made for one another. Although, if I dare to admit, I was really sad for a long time after you left. I couldn’t stop thinking about the fact that we would never make a home out of a house, well at least not together and it made me even sadder to think that we’d never have a family together, that we’d never get to have a daughter with your eyes and my smile, and that we’d never get to name her Autumn. But as time passed, and it is true that it heals. I found myself comforted by the simple idea that we made each other much better people, that we shared firsts and seconds and thirds and most of all, lasts. I am happy and I hope that you are too, and I hope that you are being loved like you deserve most of all.

You get to a point where you’re tired of telling someone how to treat you. If they haven’t learnt by now, take your energy elsewhere.

“I think the most amazing fact I learned was that they have a part of the brain that we don’t have—a part that we can’t even identify. This suggests that they sense, understand, and even feel more than we do. It still blows me away to think about it.”—Gabriela Cowperthwaite, Director of Blackfish

Yes, our periods are natural. But you know what? So is shitting. However, you don’t see people posting pictures of shit and worshipping it. 

[wanderlustingaims]

See my friend, the thing is that both men and women shit. That's the difference, that’s why you don't have someone going and shitting all over the place to make a statement. The point is that society has made periods/menstruation basically a bad word. They say “oh it’s disgusting” etc. I believe the point she was trying to make is that it is natural and it shouldn't be avoided like the plague. Women shouldn’t have to feel embarrassed if they leak accidently, or have to secretly ask someone if they have a tampon they could use. Instead of just looking at a picture and criticizing it make sure you try to understand where the artist/poet/person is coming from. If not you just look like a judgy ignorant twat.

Fifty Shades is a treasure trove of terrible lines.

“I feel the color in my cheeks rising again. I must be the color of the Communist Manifesto.”

“His erection springs free. Holy cow!”

“Holy crap! He’s wearing a white shirt.”

The fact it used to be Twilight fanfiction really comes through when you actually look up some of the text.

YOU ASSHOLE I ALMOPST CHOKED ON MY APPLE JUST NOW

[other-wordly]

What is another word for alone, besides solitary?

Check out how depressing these thesaurus.com entries for solitary are! This is why I don’t use thesauruses, especially when I do Otherwordly things. I refuse to believe that the only words for solitary are negative. I don’t believe that someone who likes their space sometimes should be called “friendless”, “desolate”, “distant”, “misanthropic”, “unapproachable”, “forsaken”. Those are terrible. Try these.

Solivagant means wandering alone. Waldeinsamkeit is the feeling of being alone in the woods–something I could probably use today. Sturmfrei or stormfree is being alone, with the freedom do what you want.

If you wanted to get metaphorical, you could say you were an inselberg–an isolated mountain. And if you wanted to work baked goods in there somewhere, you could use eremite (closely related, of course, to ‘hermit’) which means someone who lives a solitary life and also, apparently, a “spiced cookie made with molasses, raisins, and nuts”.

If anyone ever asks why I do this, this is what I’ll tell them–because the universe and the people in it are a lot bigger than any one language can wrap its words around.

I worked at the airport for a year & when I would work the international concourse people would say things like this to me and they were constantly apologizing for their broken English. Like no honey, I don’t care about any of that & I’m sorry you even feel the need to tell me that.

this like made me wanna cry rn

[amandakleinhans]

i have to speak of two instances at my place of employment.

1. a group of Hispanic guys came up to the counter to order, but only one guy could speak a small amount of English. at one point, my coworker couldn’t understand and this guy was trying to think of a way to help her. finally, he said, “4… um… fr… 4…” “papas fritas. he wants 4 orders of fries.” the look of relief on his face was heartbreaking.

2. an Asian man was placing an order and his English was broken and he started apologizing and i said, “no… no, sir. you’re doing great. English is really hard and some of us still can’t speak it that well. so, congratulations.” he and i had a 5 minute talk about where he’s from and all that.

don’t dare scoff at someone else because they are learning another language to survive.

Their making an effort and that’s all that matters

As an English teacher living where I don’t speak the language, yes. Please, just yes.

If a girl fucks the same dick 50 times it doesn’t matter. If a girl fucks 50 different dicks her vagina has stretched into a black hole. Fuckboi logic knows no bounds.
