those little things on ur nose aren’t blackheads, don’t try and get rid of them they’re sebaceous filaments and they’re permanent and literally everyone has them

every girl has that little pouch of fat on her lower tummy, despite what magazines try n show u, you have important organs there that need to be protected don’t try and get rid of ur pouch

ur body is smarter than u think and it knows what to do when u eat more than normal. one bad day, or even week, of eating poorly isn’t gonna ruin anything at all I pinky promise

if u think u look good up until u try taking a selfie, it’s not ur fault - our faces are asymmetrical and when u see ur face flipped it will look unnatural to u, since u don’t see it that way when u look in the mirror. to everyone else it looks perfectly fine

no one’s stomach looks the same at 8pm as it does at 8am. no one has a chiseled six pack after a day of eating, not even the super fit people u see on tumblr, because ur stomach naturally expands after eating and expecting to have a flat tummy before bed is very unrealistic

no one notices if the bags under ur eyes are bad today. no one pays attention to the bump in ur nose or the zit on ur chin or the piece of hair that u missed when u were straightening. literally no one notices these things except you so stop worrying about it ur gonna be fine

sometimes u just gotta get over urself

this made me cry I needed it so bad

we were the type of people who spoke better in silence we sang our hearts out with our mouths shut we whispered secret nothings without ever drawing first breath we wailed away our discomfort with the words choking our throats

words were air too light on its own  too much of nothing to amount to anything  we were deathly afraid of nothing

us three, a sacred infinity you, me and silence against the tide of meaningless words  feet planted firmly and sure in the sands of time

but we were cursed to break the spell of silence someday, sometime  but equally we were blessed to reconcile each word with its meaning each meaning with its mime

apply for jobs you’re not qualified for! audit upper-level classes! get drunk with your TAs! see that poster advertising that lecture series? go there take notes and ask questions! thank the presenter for talking about this topic you love! if the class is full before you register, email the professor and ask if they can squeeze you in! RAISE YOUR HAND! tell the disability accomodation office to do their goddamn job! ask for help! file complaints! go to class in your pajamas and destroy the reading! you got this! you KNOW you got this! be arrogant enough to learn EVERYTHING! take your meds! punch a velociraptor in the dick! fear is useless and temporary! glory is forever! shed your skin and erupt angel wings! help out! spread your sun!

i had a really good morning! you deserve a really good morning! kill anyone who says you don’t and build a throne from their bones!

Well. That was indeed a thing that happened.

(Would’ve been better with a different version of POTO but it’s irrevocably stuck in my head so…eh.)

Holy shit.

Hey this is important!

  • Hating on m/f ships does not make you “progressive”.
  • Hating on people who ship boys and girls just because it’s not gay does not make you “better”.
  • If, let’s say, a boy character who showed interest in both boys and girls, ends up with a girl, it’s not called “hetero bullshit”.
  • If, let’s say, a trans woman character ends up with a guy, nobody has the right to say “this character does not belong in the community because she’s straight”.
  • Bi, pan, ace and trans people exist in the lgbt community.
  • The lgbt community is not a club for gay people only.
  • It’s possible to be gay and still be biphobic, panphobic, acephobic and transphobic.

This is appearently considered controversial by some people so please reblog if you agree!

You feel your arms reach beyond your body  they stretch to the point of agony But maybe that’s where they need to go - beyond what you know they can hold on to So that when life ultimately sets you back into place it is where you have always needed to be

You have no idea how scared I am", she said, her voice trembling as if she was physically trying to suppress all the things she did not dare to speak out loud, “it actually tears apart my insides. It burns through my lungs and every breath hurts, every word I speak sets fire to my veins.” “Scared of what?” She gasped a little, as if her tiny body was not able to hold the pain any longer, “Failing.” Then she drew in a deep breath, “And do you know what’s the worst? The fear is paralyzing me and I am stuck in this moment where I haven’t failed yet because I haven’t tried… I’m so scared I’ll never make it past this, simply because I think I wouldn’t survive failing.” “You are most afraid when you dream.

To laugh is to affirm life, even the suffering in life. To play is to affirm chance and the necessity of chance. To dance is to affirm becoming and the being of becoming.
