A very quick comic about how I've been feeling recently!

Trying to give myself the same grace that other people are kind enough to give me, even when I'm feeling burnt out

Normal People

Normal people is about vulnerability and the importance of intimacy. It explores miscommunication and the power unsaid words have on people. Such a deeply emotional, sensitive, gentle and beautifully written and directed story about two young adults - who find such enormous solace in one another, that cannot be found within anyone else they meet throughout their lives. 
Connell and Marianne are two twin flames who fall in and out each other lives, mostly because of their lack of clearness and transparency which feels frustrating and even overwhelming at times. 
What often happens is that Connell and Marianne overthink almost everything, but don’t express their thoughts because they think they have the other person’s thoughts already figured out. But thinking is not the same as communicating. They get so caught up in their assumptions and thoughts that completely forget to do the simplest thing, which is - to ask.
Although they have a lot of misunderstandings the love they feel for each other is terrifyingly unmatched.
All throughout this novel it becomes clear that the two characters have a really unique and special spark, they and their relationship is complex, but between them exists a certain normalcy that cannot be understood by others. 
Connell and Marianne constantly try out things that make them feel weird or normal, but towards the conclusion of the novel it appears that they have accepted that their favourite version of normal is the version that exists within their relationship, when they’re with each other.
This story explores perfectly but in a very realistic way, the importance of growing up and finding love within ourselves and the people around us. 
Normal People shows us how societal expectations and insecurities can affect us and our relationships forever.

they're singing!

if Geto and Laois met

So for over a month and a half I’ve been told in my Creative writing MA class that my writing is too poetic and abstract to work in the form of a novel and that I need to simplify my meanings and sentences. I did as I was told and lost all interest in writing if I have to write in the same style that every other novelist does. Today I received this note from a classmate and didn’t realise how much I needed to hear it. Don’t change your art just because other people don’t get it. Don’t change your style to fit in with everyone else. It’s your story not theirs.

sorry for maybe sounding like a boomer but ai genuinely scares and disgusts me so much and i wish we could just. stop developing it. like i'm serious. idgaf idgaf idgaf literally nothing can justify a piece of technology that can just randomly conjure up realistic nudes of people and post them online there is literally nothing in this world that freaks me out more than that

Someone had to do it

I had this urge to look up higuruma hiromi and just look at pics of him( as any normal person would) and I found this beautiful gif

To whoever made this gif thank you

Thank you so much

someone who is soft and careful with your heart.

this quote from hbomberguy’s plagiarism video really resonated with me:

“creative people have trouble recognising their skills as skills, because eventually they feel like second nature. […] this stuff really is valuable. if it wasn’t, people wouldn’t be stealing it. creativity doesn’t feel special or unique until you realise people have to plagiarise it”

your craft is and always will be valuable, please never let anyone make you doubt that
