I feel like at least some jocks are just autistic people with a special interest in sports.

when you download a pdf and it's called like 1328723486basdf12.pdf but then you gently rename it to what it's supposed to be. that's forming a bond with a hurt and wild mythological creature and reminding it who it is.

Girl help I can’t stop buying little treats that amount to a great expense in the long run

i love you people who hold doors i love you people who let others pass on the driveway i love you people who make funny faces at babies i love you people who pick up litter i love you people who say please and thank you i love you people patient with service workers i love you people who share an umbrella i love you people who are casually kind

Happy "Hozier Isn't A Woodland Nymph He's A Human Man Who Listens to Black Music and Fucks" Day to those who celebrate

honestly equating enjoyment and poor quality is so dumb like you think everyone reading classics or watching arthouse movies etc are doing it while hating it? idk if it's the mindset that people just do things performatively or to look smart without actually 'being' smart (smartness is a construct ultimately but let's not get into that right now) but like... i guarantee you most people who really love austen or baldwin or hemingway or dostoevsky or morrison or whoever are not pretending. and like fellini or cassavetes or kurosawa filmbros genuinely enjoy them. like im sure there are posers out there and people acting like they like them to just fit into a certain 'aesthetic' or whatever but like. is it so hard to believe that people actually like these things? maybe it's insecurity or projection or anything at all but like... not everyone thinks these things are boring. even people who find them hard work derive 'fun' and enjoyment from them. and im sorry but i do think that a lot of people could benefit from trying them and taking some time with them instead of just rapid consumption of mediocrity. i don't even mean it in a pretentious way i just genuinely think that if u give things a chance u might like it and even if not it'll expand your worldview and knowledge and taste etc etc
