Tumblr is not a social media site to me, it is a cool scrapbooking \ creative writing club I go to at my local library
So if you ain’t been following what’s been happening in LA…
These towers are the Ocean Wide Plaza. I think they sit in the middle of downtown Los Angeles. They are vacant. Basically a bunch of luxury apartments in a city filled with homeless. A bunch of taggers have been hitting this place up before the city demolishes these towers instead of actually putting people into them.
Honestly, I love graffiti and would rather look at this kind of art over any museum exhibit but that’s just me. Just wanted to share some news of some artistic expression.
TAYLOR SWIFT & SABRINA CARPENTER The Eras Tour in Melbourne, Australia (Feb 23, 2024)
@chappellroan: When i was 15 I was told it would take 10+ years to get to where i wanted to be in my career and i rolled my eyes so hard…but here we are bitch. a decade later and we’re still on our bullshit and i could not be happier.
i love tumblr because of the close-knit community of girls who have never gotten over anything ever not even a little
when i got home after the new years celebrations last night, i took off my boots and found this pin stuck in the bottom of one of them,, a good sign for the new year perhaps ? :-)

spotify is selling audiobooks now…..once again tapping the sign:
dont give them your money when you could be supporting your local library!
While the app is called Libby now you can still find it if you search OverDrive. It is free, your local librarians will be happy to walk you through how to use it if you can't figure it out on your own. If you really don't want to talk to someone just punching in "How to use Libby" on YouTube popped up like six tutorials.
Additionally it's got a great UI for audiobooks that I prefer over even Audible, Libro.fm, and Spotify as well, though that's personal preference.
every time a woman talks about getting cosmetic surgery lip fillers botox buccal fat removal PREVENTATIVE botox labiaplasty rhinoplasty any of the plastys i feel like i'm being sucked down a fucking storm gutter. it's so bleak and it's so grim and it's so profoundly upsetting. here's how to sleep so you don't get wrinkles! here's how to laugh and smile so you don't get wrinkles! here's this horrifically over involved skincare routine that you should start as a teenager to prevent any indication that you've lived a life free from the omnipresent fear of being observed and subsequently found lacking! you are empowering yourself by constantly placing every piece of your body into separately managed boxes of routines and standards! this should be your hobby! your body is not just for you! the world is entitled to dictate how you look and how you feel about yourself and the unattainable goals are always changing and you will never ever rest! but you should get more sleep! don't look old! look fresh! be fuckable! be cool! make this look low effort! don't be high maintenance! your earlobes are ugly! you're ugly! you're so beautiful! beauty is everything! beauty is worth! self consciousness is so unattractive! make the other women in your life feel inhuman for not sticking to the rules as well as you have! this is a sisterhood! this is a direct competition! kill the competition! support women! other women are doing it wrong! don't be like other women! be the best woman! we'll stop punishing the best woman! i'm going to be fucking sick on myself.
i'm not saying anything that hasn't been said or thought a million hundred thousand times before. but you will not be exempt from the exhaustion and stress of existing as a woman by A) trying to constantly prove that you're one of the nebulously shifting Worthy ones or B) pulling other women back down into the bucket with you. and i think anyone who tries to tell you about the relative value or use of your own body should be torn to shreds in front of a crowd of thousands.
