yeah sure why not
Maybe it’s better to have the terrible times first. I don’t know. Maybe then, you can have, if you live, a better life, a real life, because you had to fight so hard to get it away⸺you know?⸺from the mad dog who held it in his teeth. But then your life has all those tooth marks, too, all those tatters and all that blood.

I walked up to a restaurant entrance at the same time as this guy and he held the first door for me and then I held the second door for him and he said "we call that the Midwestern two-step" with a laugh and I've been thinking about it all day.

Not relevant to anything but how come whenever someone gets a silver bullet to kill a werewolf or whatever the shell is silver too. Do they know that part gets ejected or is it some kind of scam
catch me in the woods the next morning with a metal detector gathering up casings to melt down and sell to more dumb fuck city shits next month
i think a loving thing u can do for yourself before a solo trip is to have a line item in ur budget, as critical and untouchable as Plane Tickets and Lodging, called Stupid. this money cannot be used for anything other than bailing u out of stupid situations
sometimes the Stupid moments are obvious like “my designated in-bag phone charger™️ is missing and my phone’s dying” or “i can’t find the goddamn bus stop it’s getting really late”, but sometimes they’re small like “huh the food at this bar i wanted to go to is pretty expensive”. the temptation to do the risky but cheap thing (walking around with a dead phone, getting lost, drinking on an empty stomach) over the expensive but safe thing (buy another charger at the closest shop, call a cab, pay too much for some mid-ass chicken gyozas bc though you do want to try the signature local beer it’s been a minute since you ate anything) is mitigated. it’s fine, u can assure yourself. take it out of the Stupid Budget
ONE HOUR AGO: greg abbott, who i have the great displeasure of calling my governor, is calling for the expulsion and jailing of ut austin students exercising their first amendment right to freedom of speech an assembly. every single motherfucker on the right soooo concerned about the first amendment seems to be creaming their pants over college students being brutalized and arrested for protesting. its fucking reprehensible.
Also pretty laughable for Actual Fascist Greg Abbott to claim that antisemitism will not be tolerated in his state
I wonder how Texas responds to ACTUAL anti-Semitic rallies?

Huh? No kidding
Cynics will go "social animals are still selfish, the only reason that people love each other is out of instinct to survive" and don't consider how amazing it is that the reason that humanity survives is out of the instinct to love each other.

If you're having trouble keeping up with what's going on in Palestine because of US news coverage of university protests, here are some articles you can read and a video you can watch:
While CNN & all the other mainstream media try to paint the university protests as "pro terrorism" (which they're not, they're literally anti-war protests.) Palestinians are being slaughtered by the minute.
Please don't stop speaking about Palestine.

Scars on your forearm show that once when you were twenty you got an infected cut while driving with your girlfriend through the Yukon Territory and your arm swelled up like an inflated balloon and you didn't know where to even begin trying to find a hospital or clinic so you stopped at a random house that had a red cross outside of it and the lady who lived there turned out to be a nurse and drove you to the doctor's office where the doctor was like "we gotta drain this but I don't have any anesthesia" so he told you to ball your shirt up and bite down on it while he cut you open and he drained an astonishing amount of fluid from your arm then stitched it up with a single stitch and charged you five canadian dollars for the entire affair.
