Idk man I like books and Zelda and rpgs

[rimonoroni2]

the thing about giving up is that it isn’t permanent. one must give up like twice a week in order to keep going

[rimonoroni2]

the secret to continuing Despite is to set aside time every once in a while to allow the aching, screaming, exhausted toddler in your chest to have a full blown tantrum and make half a hundred promises about never ever taking any shit ever again and walking into the ocean or running off into the woods and becoming a hermit. and you watch it and you wait for it to calm down and then when it’s sniffling on the floor you offer it a lollipop and go “alright buddy are you ready to keep walking” and it’ll be like “yeah :(“ and off you go again

The only thing that has ever improved my mental health in any measurable capacity is making more friends. That's literally it

[thejhambs]

The way isolation plays on your psyche, and the way that a solid support system can improve your life is insane. One of the worst things that we did as a society is removing most avenues to find this kind of thing, and the over reliance on the idea of getting better on your own

'#so here's the thing about the comment on hyperindividualism#self-care and mindfulness are SOLD to you#as part of capitalism#isolation serves a purposes within a specific type of society#so#you receive 'solutions' which are predicated on you being the single point of failure#you can address this with Hard Work and Money the two western panaceas#no one else needs to do anything!#never reach out to lonely people! just force them to do it all themselves#then isolate them for being weird and lonely!'

The legacies people leave behind in you.

My handwriting is the same style as the teacher’s who I had when I was nine. I’m now twenty one and he’s been dead eight years but my i’s still curve the same way as his.

I watched the last season of a TV show recently but I started it with my friend in high school. We haven’t spoken in four years.

I make lentil soup through the recipe my gran gave me.

I curl my hair the way my best friend showed me.

I learned to love books because my father loved them first.

How terrifying, how excruciatingly painful to acknowledge this. That I am a jigsaw puzzle of everyone I have briefly known and loved. I carry them on with me even if I don’t know it. How beautiful.

absolutely obsessed with these tags

[deslizada]

man sometimes friendship really is just "I saw this and knew it would give you psychic damage. please respond with agony" and then they do. and it's great

TRIED TO COME UP WITH AN ON-THE-SPOT ANALOGY FOR BEING ASEXUAL AND THE FIRST THING MY BRAIN SHAT OUT WAS "IT'S LIKE A WAFFLE MAKER"

[teaboot]

Ways that sex is like a waffle maker:

1. Lots of people have one but you don't really think about it until they start talking about making waffles and you're like "oh shit they have a waffle maker"

2. Messy as fuck and you know what as far as I see it why even bother when you have pancakes, you don't need to bother with all those fluids and crevices with pancakes

3. WHY DOES EVERYONE AT THE WEDDING THINK YOU NEED ONE

4. Theoretically implied fun with whipped cream until it melts and starts soaking into shit

5. If you don't prep ur surfaces ur gonna have a bad time

6. It's fun in the kitchen but only on like special occasions cause again it's a pain in the ass to clean

7. ??? I prefer crêpes tbh I don't get it

[teaboot]

Looking forwards to celebrating the 6th birthday of the post I made to describe a stance I was assured I'd grow out of by 13

[janaedrawsart]

OKAY LAST ONE FOR TONIGHT- part 13 of catching my Tumblr up to my instagram with my favourite posts! (Click for non-chopped quality)

I’m sticking with Four today lol- here’s some art I did a while back of him and his colours! I again, took HEAVY inspiration from the Four Swords Manga for the colours, and I just adore this, honestly.

Just remembered I had this screenshot on my phone somewhere and had to post it here because it really speaks to me

"crochet can't be made by machines" went from being a cool fun fact to being a call to action of "so if you see mass manufactured crochet in Target, that was made by a person and they were underpaid and you should boycott it" which is true, it was made by a person, but EVERY item of clothing you own (that you did not purchase from a company using ethical labor) was made by a person being underpaid (at *best*.)

Sewing machines are operated by *people*. Knitting machines are operated by *people*. Yes lots of the process is automated but you cannot tell a machine "make me a t-shirt" or "make me a knit cardigan".

Higher awareness of fast fashion, and the true human labor and abuse behind it, is GREAT, but let's not pretend that the crochet hat in target is THE problem. Every article of clothing in target is the problem. "All clothes are made by people" is the jumping off point here into understanding this issue it's not just crochet it's the whole thing ahhhhHHHHHHHHHH

[marzipanandminutiae]

If you've ever seen images of sweatshops in the early 20th century, in New York or the UK or other developed countries

Guess what

Your clothing is still made in a place that looks like that. The only thing that's different is the tech level of the sewing machines and the race of the workers 

[barksbog]

This also applies to all plushies. Every single plushie is made by people, there is no way to make them without human labour.

Unless you buy them from small scale makers who make them themselves, this means they were made in a factory, the same way clothing is.

im so sorry that you're doomed by the narrative but i really need you to answer my message on Microsoft Teams

[appalachiananarchist]

I have an end-of-life patient to whom I spoke today. She burst out laughing and said, "It was all such fun. I just had so much fun." I wish this for everyone. I wish that we each would meet death laughing, with little regret and even less fear.
