Certain words can change your brain forever and ever so you do have to be very careful about it.

biologists will be like this is a very simplified diagram of a mammalian cell

chemists will be like this is a molecule

okay but this is what the best render of a human cell looks like

a five year old note among my 1588 saved notes that just reads: four-dimensional salmon

OH WAIT I REMEMBER WHAT THAT MEANT

a higher-dimensional creature whose life cycle involves 'swimming upstream' backwards through time from the end of the universe to their spawning site at the birth of the universe

She'll fuck me if I cook good enough I know it

YOUR HOMEWORLD IS GONE

when you get rid of CDs you’re also loosing the entire art of album design and CD packaging as well as lyric booklets and the design of the CD itself. and all of those things factor into how you experience the album. looking up lyrics on genius is nowhere near as impactful as looking at the loving design that goes into lyric booklets, the images chosen to accompany certain songs, the typography and text design, even sometimes the artists comments in there as well. while playing individual songs and making playlists or shuffle playing an artists discography is fine it seems like a lot of people have forgotten what its like to listen and appreciate an album. and when “listening to an album” means clicking play on a list of songs with a tiny little album cover on spotify of course its going to be a different experience than getting the actual CD or vinyl or casette and seeing all the love and care that goes into that physical media. ok?

I hope your god has asked for your mercy. I hope youve refused to forgive him.

i love this more and more every time i see it.

I have so much love for this person. The amount of empathy it takes to have these considerations about a person you will never meet, the eloquence and conviction with which they speak, the contempt for landlords. Sometimes I see something someone writes or creates and I wish with everything in me that I could meet and talk to that person for hours about what caused them to be this kind of light in the universe. This is one of those times.

Babe are you okay I saw you reblogging "here's the life I've always longed for"

actually now that i think about it, the idea of hauntings as a kind of dislocation, like a joint knocked out of place, makes so much sense... the phrase "set the house to rights" means to put something back in its normal and proper condition, so it logically follows that a house allowed to fall out of alignment would grow twisted and "wrong", becoming strange and unwelcoming in its contorting misery.
