take in the view

sometimes i feel ugly and sad then im like wait. thats my mum and dad! flecks of my grandparents too… remnants of every being of my lineage… hundreds of crossed paths paved in cosmic randomness all of which i carry in this very face. and then beauty standards feel far too silly 

Remember that text post from a few years back that was about how eventually this website would turn on John Mulaney the minute he did anything that showed he was a human person instead of the idealized pedestal we put him on. 

It’s happening now and I’m just seeing some awful takes about what’s going on with him and it’s like: guys you aren’t entitled to know what’s going on with his private life, and it’s very entitled to feel personally betrayed about a relationship you are not a part of. Just leave the man alone. Leave everyone alone for fucks sake. 

You would not believe the reactions on tiktok. “Thinking about him rebounding is making me physically ill,” “Ugh, you can’t trust any man,” *deletes a John Mulaney slide from a powerpoint titled Men I Trust*

this pandemic will end and you’ll claim the window seat in your favorite cafe, stand in a crowd at a concert, visit a museum and make crappy art in the park. sometimes things feel like they’ll go on forever, sometimes bad things feel heavier than good things, sometimes life feels like it’s slowing down and all you’re doing is waiting for the full stop— but just because this hopelessness is all that you’re feeling right now, doesn’t mean that it’s all there is. there’s always more and you will experience that, and you will feel alive again.

hey fully vaxxed (american) people ur still gonna like. wear a mask right. on account of there’s no visual indicator that ur vaccinated. and on account of u wanna give service workers and nonvaxxed people peace of mind when ur interacting with them. and on account of vaccines aren’t 100 percent effective. and on account of so many antimaskers and antivaxxers are gonna lie and say they’re vaccinated so they can not wear one and then ur at an even higher risk. yknow. on account of vaccines aren’t 100 percent effective.

haunted dolls are cool not scary like bro there's a friend in there

The funniest part about Soul Eater will always be that there is a character in Soul Eater named Soul Eater Evans who Eats Souls and the show is not about him it's about his bestie

IT TAKES PLACE WHERE???? LMAO

I don’t know if anyone needs to hear this but “we all respond to trauma in different ways, not just pretty palatable ways” and “we are accountable for our own actions, even actions born from trauma” are not contradictory statements

Don't get sucked into the "if they really cared I wouldn't have to say something" spiral. No matter how close you are with someone, it's unfair to expect them to know things you haven't actually communicated.

freedom is important

No but moralizing about how you don’t deserve the vaccine yet is greatly reducing vaccination numbers it’s not your job to worry about if you’re “stealing” a vaccine from someone else there is a National supply and when it’s your turn it’s your turn. Refusing to get vaccinated is not going to magically vaccinate a bed bound rural person. It’s just going to get vaccine doses thrown in the garbage. God.

Every vaccine dose ups our herd immunity.  Every vaccine dose potentially frees up treatment for other people who might need it.  Get the vaccine!  There’s no “selfish” reason to protect yourself and everyone else from a deadly virus.

Reblogging because pretty much everyone I know under 50 with a preexisting condition who’s been offered a vaccine has spent ages wringing their hands over whether to refuse “until later”, so it can go to someone who “needs it more”. AND I’M INCLUDING MYSELF. After weeks of telling people to just get the vaccine when it’s offered, I had that exact same knee-jerk reaction when my appointment came up! (I did ultimately go to that appointment and get vaccinated, of course.) It’s a very common response, but we need to remember that passing up a dose wastes it; it doesn’t free it up for another person.

My hypothesis is that in like 10 years gen z is gonna have a big cult boom the way the boomers did in the 70s

It’s already happening on tik tok. There’s a fun new thing going round that’s citing common symptoms of depression and anxiety as signs you’re about to have your awakening and that you are actually an alien and the reason you don’t feel right is because you’re home sick for your own galaxy. So that’s fun.

agreed, and i don't mean this in a "haha gen z is so dumb they're gonna join a tiktok cult lmao" i mean that conditions are perfect for the formation of cults right now.

"Don't idolize content creators"

and

"It's okay to feel hurt when someone you looked up to let you down, especially if you deeply enjoyed their content"

are sayings that absolutely can and should coexist.

me giving relationship advice: communicate or end it

Sometimes I wonder, if I were a marrigable character in a video game, would people actually be like yeah I wanna woo this idiot or would I be on those memes people make about what your fave says about you and next to my image it says "go to therapy"

What?!

this is so funny to me it literally never occurred to me that british people wouldn't know who oprah is
